TikiWiki – Tracker Email Subject Improvement-Modification

tikiwiki

The template for the Tracker email is here:
\tikiwiki\templates\mail\tracker_changed_notification_subject.tpl

I changed it to this so that it would improve the way it looks in emails:

{$mail_trackerName}{tr} - #{/tr}{$mail_itemId}{tr} modified.{/tr}

Override the window.onload javascript function

1. Creates a blank function
2. Checks onload for a function.
2a. Sets the originial onload function as temp
3. calls the new function initMap() before the originial temp onload function.

Pretty cool!

Code:

var temp=function(){ return 1;};
if( window.onload )
{
      //override "placeholder" with whatever already exists in onload
     temp = window.onload;
}
window.onload=function(){ TheFunctionYouWantToCall(); temp();};

Rotating Circular Periodic Table – Javascript

Circular_form_of_periodic_table_sm

I just saw an article on this site about the merits of a circular periodic table by Mohd Abubakr Design

I thought it would be nice to have one that rotates. So I used the jQuery and jQuery-Rotate library on it to make it spin.

I hope this will be help someone and I hope to make additions to it in the future.

CWS – Chord Web Service

cwd-chord-web-service

I am creating a web service for musicians that will allow them to reference an abundance of musical references on the fly using AJAX.

Firstly, it will deliver chords and fingerings of chords for guitars to the users websites (think Google Maps).

My goal is to enhance the web.

Here is the site: http://cws.danfolkes.com

It’s still in development, but it’s getting close to launch.

Let me know what you think (only if it’s nice) 😀
