tried working on the multimore hack, refer this – i finally figured it out how to write a plugin but i just can not get it to validate xhtml strict 
the problem is it cuts in between <p> and </p> so you will have something like
<p>this is before and
<div>read more link
</p> – p got closed in the display: none div and then
another <p> starts in the display: none div and after
the div, there goes another </p>
that clearly violates xhtml rule. the only possible way to get around it would be to strip all the p tags in the message and replace them with line breaks. but that really screws up the format of the entry.
if only i could write some kind of function that’d fix mismatching p tags in the entry, then it will be more perfect. i based my hack completely on this exisiting hack. if i ever think it’s good enough to be released, i will. here’s a little demo
- this is a test for list
- this is a test for list
blah blah
it’s based on this hack so the syntax is no longer <!–more–> <!–endmore–> it’s now <!–cut=with unique read more text allowed–> and <!–/cut–> much like lj style
some more blah blah
pure essence is far from done. but i don’t really want to keep it inaccessible so here it is. at least the front page is validated xhtml 1.0 strict. i haven’t even started the rest of the site yet. most of the time was dedicated converting b2 to wp, installing hacks and thinking about how i can make the themes better. i added various functions to enhance future theme adding. here’s one to share. it basically gives you a little more control over your links. not necessarily useful for everyone but definitely handy if you have themes ^_^
btw for those who have been using wp. remember my special read more hack for b2? has someone written one for wp yet? i didn’t find one. i might need to do it myself. i’m not sure i can make it validate xhtml strict tho 
we will see. i certainly love that hack.
i learned something new today about PHP. it’s the $GLOBAL vars that can be seen by all included php files. of course most of the webhosts have register_globals = On so you don’t have to worry about it from the beginning. this articles explains why it’s better.
but that’s only a side track. I spent most of the last two hours playing with this script. fixed a bug and added a functionality. read more about it and learn how to use my user resolution PHP script here. i did that because i needed it when i was hacking DMB to add “You must follow forum rules” for the quick reply ^_^

this is a weird morning. i woke up today. bubo was not sleeping with me and instead he was outside sleeping in his bed. well that’s not too weird maybe he had enough my tossing around. i spotted myself in the mirror while i was brushing my teeth and saw my hair was parted naturally like this:
oh my. i couldn’t do that even if i tried LOL
then i went washed the dishes and got the crockpot going. i took the stuff out of the “banquet – crockpot classics” and was amused.
this is the bag.
this is the content.
i understand the photo on the bag generally don’t look like what’s inside. but for “stronganoff with beef and noodles”, are we supposed to have onions, green pepper and mushroom? hrm must changed their recipe a little bit. hey whatever, veggy is good for you. i’m curious how it’s gonna turn out

arg i’m so nervous. i finally registered to take GRE. i will be taking it on 8/21 11am. i never do good on standardized tests. my SAT wasn’t piss poor (it actually waivered my TOEFL) but my verbal really bites. i know complaining is no use now. i just need to concentrate on studying right now. so i need to put all my web projects aside for three weeks. no more big php script altho i have so many ideas i wish to implement. eek… (oh yea i just heard there are no entrance tests in Canada. what a treat huh?)
i moved regretless.com to shi’s new hosting company! yes shi’s back if you haven’t heard. she’s as cool as ever. regretless has been exceeding its month bandwidth allowed. arg apparently 25gb is no longer enough so i ordered 5 more gb from shi. sheeh.. all those new services on dnw just eat up bandwidth like hungry wolves.
i should get offline now. before i go, i must show you how BUBO is a spy DOG LMAO!
