Getting Ext working with jQPie
Submitted by cyberlot on Wed, 04/25/2007 - 06:32First off the example I had posted was using the Yahoo library due to the way I moved the example over, this has been fixed
http://projects.cyberlot.net/jqpie/examples/paging.html
The ext-1.0 packing is missing a file called jquery-plugins.js I have added it to my svn for anyone that needs it, This caused a small amount of head banging on desk but once that was resolved it was easy.
All the example files have been commited to svn for access, Soon as I get a few more things cleared up I will be making a new release.
jQPie and Ext
Submitted by cyberlot on Tue, 04/17/2007 - 16:19I had planned on building some extra functionality into jQPie to fit certain needs but after playing with Ext and its jQuery support all my needs have been met.
A basic example of the paging/data grid module running off php, works pretty nice.

I will be working on putting together demos and examples on using jQPie, jQuery and Ext together.
The above page is just a quick thrown together example to figure out the php side of things I plan a new release soon with full example code.
Programming, Security and looking for a real solution!
Submitted by cyberlot on Wed, 04/04/2007 - 18:05It seems like every week a couple more people post about PHP security, or any other language for that matter.
PHP is insecure!
Web 2.0 is insecure!
XYZ is insecure!
Why all the problems, sure PHP has its issues just like any other language. Whats the common factor in most cases? Thats pretty simple, Know thy data! Is it safe? Who did it come from?.. Wait a minute, "Who did it come from?" it came from the person on viewing the website.
Fact is theres no way to be sure, browsers support validation of websites but websites can't validate the person!
The upselling of America
Submitted by cyberlot on Tue, 03/27/2007 - 13:36In stores on a daily basis employees go after unsuspecting customers with a tactic called "Upselling". They get the customer to buy other equipment they may or may not need with the purchase of a larger item.
Why does this work? Because when your spending $2500 on a 50" LCD TV, spending another $100 for over the top cables and a over price surge protector doesn't phase you.
This same thing is happening on capital hill every day.

First jQPie release, 0.1
Submitted by cyberlot on Fri, 03/23/2007 - 21:06http://projects.cyberlot.net/trac/jqpie/wiki/WikiStart
Svn code had some issues in IE, this has been cleared up. New dynamic table sorter added and overall code cleaned up.
Table sorter was redone from the ground up and is now a complete rewrite from my original demo code I used as the base.
I am looking for some people interested in porting the php portion to other languages.
The Pie in jQPie
Submitted by cyberlot on Thu, 03/15/2007 - 17:52One might assume the Pie in jQPie is for PHP interface extension and well when I first came up with it that was the thought.
Now I have slightly larger goals, the Pie represents the slices of code I hope to pack within. Currently there is a php5 slice, and another person has shown some interest in working on a php4 version.
Now I am looking for you! Yea you there the one looking at jQPie thinking it would be cool to use but your knee deep in Python, or Perl, or any other language.
Pjq becomes jQPie - jQuery PHP interface extension
Submitted by cyberlot on Sun, 03/04/2007 - 19:29My previous post talked about my example of http://www.cyberlot.net/pjq-php-jquery-helper.
I have expanded on this further, found a tastier name and now have a project page up http://projects.cyberlot.net/trac/jqpie/wiki
Added an cheesy jQuery/Interface autocomplete example although I would of preferred a json approach to the xml but it works never the less.
Pjq - PHP Jquery helper
Submitted by cyberlot on Wed, 02/28/2007 - 18:42I started working on this a while ago and had another demo up but jquery 1.1.1 made it much easier and Pquery made me realize some people wanted something different
This is a simple php handler, it doesn't try to generate javascript for you, honestly if your using jquery you better already be able to write your own javascript ;).
The goal is to provide a extremely simple way to call php functions from within javascript and either get data back, inject php generated html or call jquery functions from php.

Funny little php "virus" floating around
Submitted by cyberlot on Thu, 02/08/2007 - 19:11Got an email that claimed to be from my host, it used a generic return address and talked about security upgrades and such and how due to new policy to help keep a secure data center I was required to upload and run 1 of 2 files in a zip attachment, the first was a php file the other was an asp file.
Now I instantly realized it wasn't from my host but it was well thought out and I could see it "appealing/fooling" novice users to I tore through it a bit.
