Reducing my PPM activity.... (28/10 to 5/11/2007)
Subject description: I'll try to keep the site up to date for the next days, but no promises...
Hey everyone! As some of you know, I don't simply run PPM. I also run Revora Creative Network (which hosts PPM) and few sites over there.
If you recently visited Revora forums and some of its hosted sites with IE7, or a recent version of Firefox, Safari, Opera, Netscape, you'll notice that the network bar has changed. At Revora, I in charge of this network bar update. The network bar is one of the heart, the core of the network that unite all sites from it and, everyone on Revora uses, including PPM, at the site (not the forums).
The new network bar uses a more restrictive code that requires XHTML and the vast majority of the 100+ hosted sites at Revora doesn't use this standard. So, I'm having to edit site by site to make it work properly at Internet Explorer 7, because the bar doesn't work well in this browser if it doesn't have a XHTML header in the code.
For this reason, I'm priorizing this network bar upgrade operation at Revora over PPM for the next days. If Muldrake has some free time available, he'll keep posting news. I might post a news once in a while as I always do when I'm away, but not in a daily rate. I hope you understand and sorry for the inconvenience, but I have a lot of sites to update, including PPM itself to work with the new network bar.
XHTML... trying to look elitist, are you? XHTML is only worth using if your content cannot be represented in plain HTML. Otherwise, you look like a fashion victim.
Not to mention this should be the responsibility of the site owners in the first place, the host editing the my site's content is not something I'd be happy about. And you're bound to have "fun" if any of them use a CMS of some kind. QUICK_EDIT

I wasn't the one who coded the bar. I am the one who is implementing it at the network. So, it wasn't my choice to restrict it to XHTML. But I'm having a lot of headache with that as well, because editing every site from Revora is a pain in the ass (too many sites). And most of the sites I am editing, I'm aware that the authors won't edit them at all. Anyway, I've already emailed the authors to edit their site on their own. QUICK_EDIT
