It's confirmed; I'm an idiot
I am sure that everyone has their days when they realize they have done something so incredibly stupid that it can only fall into the idiot category. I hesitate to call it a "senior's moment" because that would be unfair to the aged amongst us. Besides, one would have to be in the advanced stages of...

Wrapping it up - the King of Junk sells online
It is understandable that some folks reading this blog over the last few entries aren't really sure what I am talking about, at least in terms of the big picture. I apologize for that, I worked on the assumption that everyone stopping into this blog knew that I am the King of Junk and rule over a...

Closer to the dream
I use the term "dream" because I must be dreaming if I can think that I can write a piece of software to do everything that I want it to do. Simply put; I only have a foggy notion of what the heck I am doing but the fog is slowly lifting. What I set out to do was create a piece of software that...

Picture contributions by Blogit members
A few days ago I put up a post about an image gallery script that I thought was kinda neat. The best part about it is its simplicity. Create a web folder, drop the script in it, then create a subfolder named "gallery", drop as many pictures into this subfolder as you want and the script will auto...

So who got spammed by our latest Blogit "entrepreneur"?
I think when a blogger has yet to post a blog but has a number of things posted for sale, that we can refer to them as an "entrepreneur". To refer to them as a blogger would be the same as referring to someone who owns a race car as a race car driver, it could be true but it is not necessarily so....

An Image Gallery with endless possibilities
As I have been fooling around with a couple of PHP scripts attempting to make a specific script to do a certain job, I have ended up with something unplanned. And kinda neat. The task is to develop a form that will allow me to upload pictures into a file folder on my web server to automatically...

Sorry folks, I had to delete the last post with all comments
My apologies to EmmaCunnan, bluehands and sam444. While working on the new store I noticed that it had developed a bug in one of the plug in modules. The easiest solution was to delete the store and start again but unfortunately that course of action made all of the links in the last post dead. The...

Tips for posting your email address online
I wince when I see someone who is a novice at authoring web pages utilize the old fashioned HTML "mailto" attribute to post their email address online. Email harvesting spiders don't have to do any work at all to index and record your email address in their data bases. On today's internet you will...

The dealer's store is almost complete
I'd like to tell you that I know what I am doing but that would be stretching the truth a bit. To take my simple osCommerce template a step further along the road of commercial viability, I have to find a way to make it suitable for a person with modest coding skills to quickly learn and produce...

A great free software program
I have a dream to write a script that I can incorporate into my osCommerce template to make it extremely useful for selling large ticket items online. To see large ticket items such as cars, equipment and other things that cost thousands of dollars you need lots of images. People put a lot of time...
