Comment on Object Oriented PHP With CodeIgniter by Rian

Rian — Fri, 21 May 2010 20:08:24 +0000

I recently peeked into CakePHP which seems to be something similar and i really like the concept of those Frameworks although i had not had the chance to use them in one of my projects as time presses on and i can’t spare the time to completely refit it into cake. I stole some good concepts though and implemented a kind of poor man’s version mvc which does the job really well concerning maintainability of my code. Thanks for bringing another candidate to my attention !

Comment on Optimising Ajax Search Suggestions by Slobo

Hm, does your initial result set have a chance of being huge? Think X years down the line, will the AJAX be pulling thousands of results as soon as user hits two characters? You may want to just limit number of responses to say 10.
Of course this would mean you have to make another request for each letter. To combat this I occasionally use typewatch (http://www.dennydotnet.com/post/TypeWatch-jQuery-Plugin.aspx) or similar to fire ajax requests only when user has paused a bit. YMMV

Just an FYI — Samsung released an updated BIOS for the N140 a couple of days ago. Just did the update for my N130 and so far no issues except I had a password set via the BIOS locking it at startup that I did have to re-do.

I can’t remember where i saw it now, but i think it was the Samsung site. However, they seem to have scrapped the Linux option now!

WHERE can you get £20 off for windows free? failed so far to find it anywhere, and I hate paying a tax for something I’ll never use.
