Windows 7 Partition Manager
Posted on May 30th, 2010 No commentsI’ve just found a handy free tool for managing partitions really easily in Windows 7. http://www.partitionwizard.com/free-partition-manager.html I’d used the built in partition manager in the Windows 7 Disk Management tools to shrink my primary volume and make the second drive, but then I realised I’d made it too big and needed a couple of extra gig added back onto my C drive

Double quotes in INI files loaded with parse_ini_file
Posted on March 1st, 2010 No commentsWriting a bit of PHP tonight and found that if you use parse_ini_file to load an INI file in PHP, there is a slightly hacky way of having double quotes in strings. For example, I tried these: somevalue = "This " "string" " has quotes" somevalue = "This " string " has quotes" But none of them worked! Turns out a quick look at the PHP manual reveals a simple (but a bit hacky) solution to this is to define a constant e.g. QUOTE to be “, and use that in the INI string

MySQL gotcha when using non-compulsory foreign keys
Posted on January 27th, 2010 No commentsI’m just writing a query at the moment that filters out test records from a database. These records have a foreign-keyed value that identifies test apps, e.g. a table with: id name 1 TEST 2 ANOTHER_VALUE 3 SOMETHING_ELSE This is joined onto the main data table, sensibly with a query like this: SELECT * FROM the_data LEFT JOIN the_values ON the_data.some_value = the_values.id WHERE the_values.name != 'TEST' The gotcha is however, that this doesn’t work as you’d expect

Styling the The TinyMCE Text Area
Posted on January 4th, 2010 No commentsThey guys who produce TinyMCE suggest, when initialising the editor, that you set the content_css parameter to be the url to your site’s CSS, so that the content you type into the text area is styled in the same way as the rest of your site.

Override style=”..” using external CSS
Posted on September 12th, 2009 No commentsOn my blog I use a plugin called Social Homes , which gives me the favicon of each social site I’m a member of and a link to my profile on each site on the top left hand corner. However the default style is that the icons are left aligned and the margin is a little bit too big. I tried putting an override in my styles.css: div .socialhomes { margin-top : -5px ; text-align : center ; } However, inline styles (i.e

Windows 7 + iPhone Bluetooth
Posted on August 22nd, 2009 No commentsWell we finally received access to the Windows 7 Pro RTM, personally I've been running an RC for several month and think its the most polished version of Windows yet, but many people will find it difficult to adjust to. I've ran into a few issue with getting its Bluetooth support working with my iPhone, it appeared with the yellow triangle exclamation icon, not sure why, but this can be fixed by right clicking the phone icon, going to properties -> services and unticking the Wireless iAP option, click ok, right-click on the phone icon and select Connect using -> Access point.
