ID	Timestamp	Categories	Details of Change
24	January 16, 2008 11:01 PM	PHP, MySQL, Feature	Added spam filtering to all user-submitted posts. Uses restricted term greylist to flag posts which contain unacceptable profanity or spam indicators. Posts over the threshold are logged for reference and an error page is output to the user.
23	March 24, 2006 10:27 PM	HTML	Developed a work-around for a rendering bug in Internet Explorer, whereby block-level elements containing a floated element would overflow their parent container on the Fresh Stuff page.
22	February 19, 2006 3:52 PM	PHP, Feature	To help visitors find the newest stuff, I've created a page to display the newest content on the site. It currently displays up to 10 entries less than 10 days old from photo gallery, gallery comments, and journal comments and provides a link to the actual page where the new material is located.
21	February 11, 2006 8:42 PM	PHP, Feature	Added smiley support. Smileys can now be included in the "comment" field of most forms by typing in the appropriate "emoticon." Further BBcode support may be added in the future, as well as more smilies than the current 17.
20	January 24, 2006 6:12 PM	PHP, MySQL, Structure, Feature	The script has been completed to display photos from my database to visitors, along with comments, and EXIF embedded data. With that, I consider the photo gallery to be in beta status and accessible to all. Links to the old photo gallery have been removed, except in the archive. The only remaining features to be added are the picture rating system a name, and a logo, after which, the gallery will be advanced to production status. Existing known bugs in the photo gallery: * New comments do not display until a page refresh * Margins above pictures in picture-view do not display as expected (IE and Firefox) * Stats column vertical position is inconsistant between Firefox and IE. * Dynamic picture resizing is inefficient
19	January 21, 2006 12:04 AM	PHP, MySQL	Between this weekend and last, I created two scripts related to my soon-to-be-released photo gallery. The first stores a list of folders in the gallery, displays them for visitors, and links to the second. The second script selects thumbnails for browsing out of the appropriate folder based on the link clicked in the first script. The final portion in the creation of the photo gallery is to create a script to resize full jpeg's into more convenient files, and display them to the user, along with information about the picture and user comments. Oh, the gallery also needs a name.
18	January 15, 2006 8:44 PM	HTML, CSS	Created stylesheet rules for h1, h2, h3, h4 to replace class contenthead, titlebox, titlehead, and miscellaneous, non-standard headers that have been spread throughout the site. These will be replaced in the HTML as they are discovered.
17	December 12, 2005 4:58 PM	PHP	Fixed issue with poll trying to set cookies to roo.nweci.org after transition to jameswashere.net
16	August 13, 2005 4:04 PM	PHP, MySQL	I've finished creating a script to upload pictures to the server, create thumbnails, and store information about them in a database. The next step in building my photo gallery is to create a script to access and display them to visitors.
15	June 04, 2005 2:22 PM	PHP, MySQL, CSS, Feature	I've added a field to the guestbook for a reply for each comment from me, just to make it a little more interactive. I also modified the CSS a little bit to distinguish in the coding between the stats field in the guestbook and the stats field in the blog, and to fix a bug with margins in Internet Explorer.
14	June 03, 2005 6:26 PM	Structure	Finished the transition to jameswashere.net. The site is no longer available at roo.nweci.org/jlynch. There are still a few bugs in the coding related to the domain name and location on the server that need to be worked out, but almost everything is taken care of. The IP is currently 70.97.48.187
13	May 07, 2005 4:31 PM	PHP, MySQL, Feature	Created a countdown timer. Based on a date stored in a MySQL table, it calculates the number of years, months, days, hours, minutes, seconds until the event, then displays a message with the timeleft in the righthand colum, if the date has not passed. Currently, the timer is static and only updates when the page is reloaded. This may eventually be changed to a continuous ticker.
12	March 12, 2005 12:48 AM	Feature	Purchased jameswashere.net through Yahoo. Currently Yahoo is forwarding requests for that URL to http://roo.nweci.org/jlynch, but it will eventually change so that the entire site is jameswashere.net
11	February 13, 2005 4:22 PM	PHP, MySQL, Feature	As a result of my indecision over what domain name to purchase, I've decided to create a poll feature for the site. After working quite a few hours over the weekend, I created a database and scripts to allow the code to be applied to multiple polls. The poll is designed to be included in the right column of the Version 2 layout when desired. The poll automatically adjusts to the number of options available and visitors can add comments about the poll on a seperate page (/site/pollresults.php). It is nearly complete, but I need to work out some issues with cookies in Internet Explorer and copy the script over from the test file into an include.
10	January 20, 2005 11:38 PM	PHP, MySQL, Feature	Added the ability for visitors to add comments to the journal portion (front page) of the site. Also re-wrote some of the code for the front page to be more organized and execute faster.
9	January 09, 2005 2:41 PM	Feature	I've added my resume and portfolio to the site. The resume is available in long and professional formats and in PDF, Word, or online formats. The portfolio includes samples of my professional and class work, but is not completed yet.
8	January 08, 2005 4:53 PM	PHP, Feature	I've completed the page feedback.php. This is a simple form that allows visitors to send an email to me through the website, either to be friendly or to address concerns about the website's operation.
7	January 08, 2005 3:06 PM	PHP, MySQL	Drew rebuilt his server and performed a series of upgrades that resulted in it being down (and inaccessible) for about a week. The server is now running Debian Linux with Apache 1.3.33 and PHP 4.3.10, which is the latest release of PHP 4. MySQL is version 3.23.56, which is an older stable version. All scripts appear to be running as before with the new builds. I also never mentioned the switch to the new layout, which took place December 19th and included the addition of the guestbook.
6	November 12, 2004 1:14 AM	PHP, MySQL	I finally started transferring journal entries over from the old hmtl files into the new database. I also wrote a simple script to pull the entries out of the database and display them in the new layout. It also automatically limits the display to 10 per page and creates links to additional pages. My current plan is to launch version 2 of this site after I finish creating a feedback page and a guestbook.
5	October 29, 2004 5:38 PM	HTML, CSS, Structure	Finished the new layout! Sort of. Any more changes will be very minor. The next step is to create PHP scripts to pass the content into the document.
4	August 16, 2004 9:53 PM	MySQL, HTML, CSS	Started yesterday and continued today on the new style for version 2 of the site. The basic layout is nearly complete, but a great deal of work needs to be done on colors, backgrounds, and images. I also created a database table to be used for my log, but there isn't time yet to create the interface.
3	August 14, 2004 2:01 PM	PHP, MySQL	Added an interface to this changelog to make updating easier. It includes a code verification to make sure other people don't add stuff, a list of categories which describe the type of change, and a printout of the previous changes. This will probably not be the final form.
1	July 03, 2004 12:13 AM	MySQL	Added changelog (this database) and guestbook to my database. I think the fields are self-explanatory so I won't go into details here. Hopefully all of this works.
