    File HTML Lokal yg stuck loading di IE 6 ( status : downloading image tapi ga berhenti2) 

    Beberapa saat yang lalu salah satu teman saya mengalami kesulitan saat membuat web. Terjadi keanehan saat dia developing halaman xhtml dan membukanya di IE 6.
    Gejalanya si IE 6 ini statusnya sedang downloading ( downloading image ), tapi gak berhenti-2. Alhasil page nya hang/stuck dan ga mau loading dengan bener.
    Maka kemudian saya coba ikut2 an bantu.

    Listing Symptoms & Condition :
    - Semua file (html, css, images) di host lokal (i.e Localhost)
    - Saat di load di browser2 yg lain tidak apa2 tapi saat di load di IE 6 status nya “downloading image” .. dan ga berhenti2 .. dan pageloadnya stuck/hang .. halaman tidak di render2
    - layout table-based ( belum di selikidik apakah ini termasuk faktor yg menentukan atau bukan )

    So langkah-langkah yang saya lakukan adalah saya KISS html nya. Bukan, bukan saya sosor monitor saya :P , tapi saya strip/non-load semuanya : CSS, image, dan javascript.
    Test ke IE 6 -> jalan normal.

    Sekarang di load css + image nya… ternyata kembali stuck IE 6 nya saat mulai loading. Pertama2 tadi nya saya kira ini javascript masalahnya tapi bahkan saat javascriptnya ga dijalanin halamannya masih stuck.
    So, kemudian ke level selanjutnya : validasi CSS (meskipun saya belum pernah mengalami bahwa css bikin stuck browser)..
    w3c bilang valid dan ga masalah kok css-nya.

    Saya bener2 mentok,…
    (More …)

    Sadish’s ILove Music Aside Issues 

    Recently i just done installing Sadish’s Worpress Theme ILove Music on one of my client site binaMuslim, running the latest WP 2.1.3.
    There’s Aside implementation on the Theme, but unfortunately when i tried to used it it didn’t work. Here is the sympthomps :

    1. It did a good job eliminating the aside’s category from displaying on the main column
    2. But it didn’t display the right category on its block on the sidebars, but showing posts all categories instead

    After several trial and error, i see in the functions.php that it still use the old WP 1.2 version of the_loop :
    <?php if ($posts) : foreach ($posts as $post) : start_wp(); ?>

    so i change it to something like this :
    <?php if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>

    so including the query_posts part of the functions goes like this :

    <?php query_posts("cat=" .$sideCatId. "&showposts=" .$NumPosts );
    if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
    <div class="post">
    <h4 class="note"><em><?php comments_popup_link('(0)', '(1)', '(%)','',''); ?></em><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link: <?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h4>
    <div class="entry">
    <?php the_excerpt(); ?><?php edit_post_link(); ?>
    </div>
    </div>
    <?php endwhile;?>

    And it works :)

    The Banana Passage – DoTheMonkey Release 

    bananaTALK | my wife’s weblog. I’ve promised her that i would write one two things about it. So here goes.
    bananaTALK - the evolution

    Story

    bananaTALK, the name is came up on my head just like that. When i decide to create a blog for her.

    ***

    It about late 2004, after my wife’s graduation, and we’re expecting our 2nd baby boy, Daud (well off course we didn’t if its gonna be a boy again). At that state its quite definite that she couldn’t event try to apply for a job, and being me still working in bandung when she’s in jakarta is like a must that she need to find something(s) to do soon (even if its just merely things to keep her busy). And blogging, is one of good alternative that comes up (there’s this cooking-learning, or things more motherly but i thought it wouldn’t work :P )

    ***

    bananaTALK, its spell with the mood like when you have those afternoon talk, or coffee break, or tea time, or some other easy talk, just a chit chat about something that close to our daily life in an easy air. And thats where we, i’m just acting as a assistant in this project, aim this blog would be.

    bananaTALK, one of its ideas is comes from this dialog from Unleashed

    Sam (Morgan Freeman) : “Food talk, all we have to do is understand its language”.

    So in this blog, we’d like to show how to understand some of the “language” that used in consumer products (and in development medical treatment or products too), well basically just read the Disclaimer page and you’ll know. Actually, if its me, i want to show others how to understand different perspective, using the right eyeglass, or hat, or shoes, or … yes language in different areas … but to specially aimed those that close to our daily lives (esp. parenting) is not bad ideas … well actually its better. Its focused & more attractive in a way.

    The (Inter)Faces

    bananaSPLATT

    This 1st theme of bananaTALK is actualy a blatant conversion from Cubrick, the default wp theme. I go with the simplest-concise-obvious theme. Straight with big banana up on header. The tagline is BIG Blog : Banana Is Good weBlog.

    Nothing fancy, just editing here and there, adding spice so the food is not too dull :P . This theme is only last for several months.

     

     

     

     

    YellowSunrise

    With the YellowSunrise i try to create something different from other blogs, the headerimg is not on the top, but its on the left side, with some of its to be on the background. The color is trying to convey message : Fresh, wide, spacey, and plus all the thing that morning could have.

    The banana itself is quite subtle, its only showing its back (well lets say it is, even i could never win if you argue that banana doesnt have a back … :P ). More portion is the sunFlower, and Syifa (the cartoonic figure).

    I’m trying to persuade the audience that the site is somehow quite fun, cherish, but we have some hope to reach from it. This theme is holding quite long as the interface of bananaTALK, about a year or so.

    DoTheMonkey

    DoTheMonkey is actually an unfinished product, and even its agaisn’t my commitment to never publish an unfinished website but due to the things that over scheduled and my workload that seems to never ceased i had to published it. May God have mercy on my soul. Actually we’ve planned to change the interface of bananaTALK sometimes a go, along with it to considering changing the engine (we’re considering TXP , as my wife starting to getting a hold on (X)HTML.)

    As expected from an unfinished product, bugs and glitches is considered as a feature :P . So, i’m fixing it with the harsh method, fixing it bit by bit, piece by piece. Not by trying to shoot the source of the problem but more to adding a patch and workaround so it work. So, the code is quite messed-up.

    Actually the new look should be focused upon navigation system, the ease to navigate. And off course overall readability, legibility, and all the functional issues per page should be covered. The blog is going quite fat, with loads of post that (considerably) timeless articles (well at least not for this 3-5 years). Unlike other personal journal, that the post is quite have its expiration date (by nature, of those actual issues that based on the news or recent state or happenings).

    Outro

    On creating each Interface there’s countless trial and mockups on the paper, and quite sum of alternate design (some of it were actually full design compiled in xhtml+css ) that we decide not to use. For example is this and several others. As for me to create web interface is more than just create fancy menu bars or buttons, or flashy and eye candy web 2.0 gradients elements. As you could see from the evolution its have its own mission and flavours in each stage.

    So,.. well even i say like : as written on the footer that its still on beta-overnight built so expect it to be replaced very soon (i hope :P ) , but actually it won’t be that instanous replacement … :P

    Have a good life, and keep on smiling :)

    Joomla Directory Ownerships Issue 

    I noticed it when i want to install themes for the Hydra Project Management. Here’s a list of what i’ve tried :

    1. Upload to server using FTP Client -> Didn’twork
    2. Trying to CHMOD the directory to 777 using :
      1. ftp Client -> not working
      2. cpanel -> chmod fails miserably
      3. since my hosting didn’t provide shell for me, i use the cron option on cpanel … after several tries .. its still failed
    3. sleep it a day …
    4. doing above again all over -> still not working
    5. then i hit google, after several minutes i hit these mambo forum that there’s some celanup.php they’ve used.. another info i found is that somehow joomla take-care of the ownership of the d*mned directory in question (some apache runtime that holding it so i can’t do chmod on it)

    So, all of sudden, there’s this bright shining bulb above my head.. if joomla own s the directory than if i tell joomla to change its permission then it would work … ta da ….
    Now the question is, how to tell joomla to get to do that, and there’s this lifesaver component that i’ve bump a while ago, its called JoomlaXplorer, and its work like a monkey dance on banana peel … :)

    So if any of you have any problem with this kinda directory or folder ownership on joomla try the JoomlaXplorer.
