Whats new??


 
November 15,2002

Holy cow its been a long time since the last update!! But now that I know some PHP, and
graphics better, I can really start putting some zing into this site.

For simple starters, I put the date and time into my website near  the top. Before I was doing
a perl call for a date. Not a good solution. Now with PHP support, (Thanks to our great SystemAdmin at MYKNET.ORG!!! Wooohoo!!!)  I can do all kinds of stuff. The date is CST, since thats where the server
is. I am in EST. I think I'll add some code today so it can do EST and other timezones...Now to 
check time, day, date I'll goto my website. I used to have to goto CNN.com in the past to do that. 
Not anymore!

I also added a GuestBook and Comments!! Woohooo!! You can see it. bottom right, of the first table.

Im also going to redo the sound, it annoys me too. With PHP, I can let the user decide how and when to play music. I think I'll try a simple jukebox. Playing MP3s is not easy since its a Web server, I have to convert my MP3s to DVI-WAV format and then do all the HTML/PHP coding and upload it...

Stay tuned! Same Bat station, Sam Bat channel.

I added the Web Music button near the bottom of the page.
So now you can optionally listen to some tunage on my webpage.
You can change music at any time during the song. Just return
to Web Music and select a different song.
To stop the music, jsut press the STOP button in your browser.
I darkened the main webpage background so it is easier to read.
I added some of my C programming code and Unix Scripting to the main 
webpage. I added som Perl cgi-scripts, but haven't had them do anything 
yet. Added some Linux Distro notes and other files.

Updated my HTML resume today. I originally created my resume in Word 2000, like everyone does.
however if you try and save it as an HTML or WEB document, Word puts hundreds of tags in the
document making that document a virtual Gordian Knot. 
 So I saved my resume in text format, and then added the HTML tags to what you see now. Plus
the HTML tags are only a few dozen or so. The old adage is true, you want something done right
you have to do it yourself.

 Well I added some picture to the Great Art. Actually I do not consider the fantasy images as great art. 
Well certainly not in the class of Venus de Milo. I remember being in the Louvre on Sunday morning, around 
11 or so, the sun coming in off the window. They have Venus de Milo in the corner. It was just me and Venus 
for about 10 minutes, and the sun shining in through the window. It was nice. 
Also they left me alone with the Mona Lisa. Yes it is quite small and dark. But there is nothing to protect it.  I could have destroyed it, and spent the rest of my life in a French prison. I would have been famous.
  
I also added a "Images" where I put up some various images. Some of these images I made using Photoshop or the 
GIMP, but most came with Windows XP or Windows 2000.
Unless you have a fast internet connection, dont bother with  the images or ther art. I'll have to warn people 
about that.

Adding nothing lately to the website because I had a serious computer malfunction. Thought it was history! 
Was just a flaky memory module and bad connection. I thought the power system was dead, and it would have 
cost me hundreds to fix the power sytem or the motherboard.
Drives and Memory modules I can fix with minimal cost.The computer gods were smiling on Teddy today.
Thank you!

Added this new feature called Whats New?. So users can see quickly what is new and what has changed. 
Been adding a lot of "Under Construction signs" to pages that do not have content yet. Lots of work!

Used Photoshop and GIMP to make some new colors from the standard stone.jpg. Reds blues, greens, yellows. 
Use as needed.

 Added a table of names and addresses, but did not add it to index.html yet. 
This is in case I need someones address information, all I have to do is review it.
I will have to add password protection to all my personal data.

 Installed Apache 2.036 onto TEDDYS VFAT partition and also the live website within F:\Apache\htdocs. This means live editing can be done from within Linux or Windows, since both OS's now have an Apache webserver and rwx access to F:\apache. The only thing I cannot do is assign rwx permissions to anything on F:\TEDDYS, since this cannot be done on a VFAT. Permissions can only be done on EXT2, EXT3.
