ignition

now i recently found something that is working almost perfect in most of the browsers less Internet Explorer :d .

cufón . its use is pretty simple but to implement it in wordpress takes some time especially if you want to use custom fonts for the #storycontent id that wraps around the text blogcontent.  above all, you must find "complete fonts"  for normal, bold and italic style, punctuation and symbols  support. nevertheless there are a lot of options that cufon has to offer to trick wordpress.

 it seems that in opera when you switch in fullscreen , this browser displayes the webpage in "fluid mode" . :(   

anyway beautiful project by Simo Kinnunen , i never thought i would see something like this . 

i hate the <!–more–> wordpress option because it splits the post in two when it sees this tag and throws the second half to trash . google will index only the first half and this s*&^*(#$%^ because i need the page with full posts so i can bring visitors that search randomly word pairs  ;) .

when wordpress publish, everything happens here “site.com/wp-includes/post-template.php”, and when it sees <!–more–> truncates the post then runs this

$output .= apply_filters( ‘the_content_more_link’, ‘ <a href=”‘ . get_permalink() . “#more-$id\” class=\”more-link\”>$more_link_text</a>”, $more_link_text );

we change it into this :

many thanks to Karl Swedberg , his idea is brilliant .

but here’s a HINT . use a single Tabbed page & send all the traffic to that page .

scripts and idea briefly :

var origWidth, origHeight;
if (document.layers) {
origWidth = window.innerWidth; origHeight = window.innerHeight;
window.onresize = function() { if (window.innerWidth != origWidth || window.innerHeight != origHeight) history.go(0); }

} var cur_lyr; // holds id of currently visible layer

function swapLayers(id) { if (cur_lyr) hideLayer(cur_lyr); showLayer(id); cur_lyr = id; }

function showLayer(id) { var lyr = getElemRefs(id); if (lyr && lyr.css) lyr.css.visibility = “visible”; }

function hideLayer(id) { var lyr = getElemRefs(id); if (lyr && lyr.css) lyr.css.visibility = “hidden”; }

function getElemRefs(id) { var el = (document.getElementById)? document.getElementById(id): (document.all)? document.all[id]: (document.layers)? document.layers[id]: null;
if (el) el.css = (el.style)? el.style: el; return el; }

then play with layers IDs  swapLayers(‘Player_A’);showLayer(‘P_B’); return false;  , use div classes, add in your body  onload=”swapLayers(‘load_default_layer’);” and that’s all . OR you may use this wonderful solution “http://www.barelyfitz.com/projects/tabber/” with CSS styling . you may get impressive results . ;)

one more thing . if you want quick 1st page 1st position google result to your “page” for several keywords you should buy a domain containing the keywords you want, to obtain a good position . buy a  domain like keyword1.keyword2.keyword3.keyword4.com and redirect as parked_domain to “page” .  you may also add subdirectories /keyword5/keyword7/~keyword10 .  stylish ;) .

my setup is an old laptop running Windows Xp x64 , pppoe connection, firewall UP on all network interfaces :d . being a beginner i can tell you this is a nice piece of software, get rid of vmware . it’s free and works faster ;) . a full installation of slackware was quick, configuration easy and had no problems . now how to get a ping working from the virtualbox using “VirtualBox Host-Only Ethernet Adapter” (no VirtualBox NAT or Bridged adapter which is a kind of a host-only-eth) . first of all, I always hated the NAT solution offered by any Windows OSes ( 2000,XP,Vista, and probably 7, too) . i’ve used a little routix , wingate and others (google a bit) but wingate it’s wonderful .it is the best of all server solutions because it has a lot of options that are working. installation of wingate is easy so we shall skip to the configuration of slackware so we can ping outside . i think someone else can make this easier, but hey i am not a PRO . sorry :( . this page helped me out configuring the slackware virtual machine and you should find enough details to understand what i did . here is one of the latest wingate .

now. we bridge the “Local Area Connection”(Xp) and “VirtualBox Host-Only Ethernet Adapter” (VB) set an ip for this bridged network (192.168.5.7) then dial our pppoe connection . switch to slackware virtual-machine (run netconfig to waste some time), get tunctl *1, install it and

mkdir /dev/net ; mknod /dev/net/tun c 10 20

tunctl -t tap0 -u root ; brctl addbr br0

ifconfig eth0 0.0.0.0 promisc

brctl addif br0 eth0

ifconfig br0 192.168.5.17 netmask 255.255.255.0

addif br0 tap0 ; ifconfig tap0 up

route add default gw 192.168.5.7

add these lines or some of them to rc.local or another startup file, two nameservers in your resolv.conf , ping www.imissyou.org !!!! and we are done . that would be all.

*1 if you don’t have any idea about how to have some files available on your virtualmachine without network-drivers or shared-folders here’s one . get free iso creator , make an iso file with the files you want on your virtualmachine then mount your new iso image machine>settings>storage>Add cd/dvd device>media manager>add iso file .
