My First Blog Entry

Testing comments.


Interface to Enter Blog Entries

So I have a neat interface to enter blog entries :)

It is a simple HTML form with a php script which writes the entry into the database with a mysql_query call (oh no, I've only just learned that this function is becoming obsolete :-O).

Of course it has some kind of spam protection and it is hidden in a directory with --x privileges so should be out of reach of spam robots (they have been giving me enough grief with my wiki, but that is for another blog entry).

I have decided that the blog entries will be in HTML so that I can use all the html tags I fancy.

Next step, though, will be enabling comments, where I obviously don't want to allow all html tags, so first I will enable them just plain text and then I might implement some parsing for some kind of BBCode.

Oh, and the design. I am not sure whether you noticed that the design kind of sucks but just in case you did then yeah, it is going to stay so for some time as I want to concentrate on the functionality first. And then all the other things. Don't worry though, there is always hope I will address it at some point. For now, just two backslash smileys for good night :\ :\'
