Welcome Home, Brothers!
Brings back memories of the grinder:
This is a test page set up to test the various features under development at MyFRpage.com. Tonight, we've added page banners and about text. The about text block (ahem, you're reading a sample now) is HTML enabled, but be careful. We don't have an HTML validator in place yet, so be sure to close all tags. Those big colorful bold italians will get you if you forget to close them. You break it (the HTML), you fix it. The page banners are like the one above.
This, coupled with the new page tools and link boxes in your sidebar released for testing yesterday, now gives you nearly all the tools you need to build your own kick-ass, multi-page, custom website, complete with forums and (gasp) blogs on MyFRpage.com! Admin tools and more coming soon.
Note: If you build a large page or series of pages with lots of text and html coding, please maintain an offsite back up. I can't retrieve lost pages. Also, it's probably best to build and test your html pages locally and then after everything works, cut and paste it here. Things can get lost, or the test site could get clobbered.
Semper Fi!
What works?
Ah HA! The post ordering bug has been zotted.
Yup. Now working on fixing the bug in posting new threads. Will require several test posts. Learning tricky new (to me) AJAX techniques. The javascript programming tutorials are clear as mud. Hopefully, I won't crash the program in the process, but if I do I'll get it going again as quickly as I can. Taking baby steps.

I think I found exactly what I need at the embedded link. Now, to make it work in practice (inserting new posts to the current html list of posts on your screen without having to refresh... and getting them in the correct order while also allowing editpost to function and comments to be posted to them).
broke it.
Recovered (I hope). Now short break to check other stuff.
Got the new thread post ordering bug fixed. Some more work to be done on the routine though.
That's an AWESOME chair!
You could even track mud into the house with a rig like that, and get hollered at for it!
LOL!
