Many blogs out there can only produce a couple articles a week while their visitors ask for loads more. It’s sometimes a good idea to add related articles from other blogs to your sidebar. Adding them manually takes lots of time we don’t have. With this new Community News plugin you allow your visitors to add articles to the sidebar. Complete with moderation panel and a settings page, you can sit back while you have full control about the look and articles that being posted.

The moment is here, the release of the FV Code Highlighter plugin version 1.1. In this release PHP is completely supported. I told you that I would try to implement JavaScript and Java as well, but unfortunately this isn’t done yet. The reason for this is that I simply already wanted to release this version because of the (better) support for PHP.
Also the admin panel is improved for better usability, see the screenshot below.

Furthermore, a security issue, which makes it possible for every subscriber of your blog to change the code display settings, is solved. And a few little bugs have been fixed.

Yesterday, when I was creating a new plugin for my friend Stefan Vervoort, I needed sessions to work. Unfortunately, WordPress doesn’t support them!??
I searched the whole source code of this great piece of blogging software, and not on one single line I found even one session. Also the session_start() function is not called, but I still needed my sessions to work 
.
So I started searching Google for a fix of my problem. I found a lot of people asking the same question: “Why don’t sessions work in WordPress?” Finally I found a solution to fix this little issue and guess what, it is a simple one.

Hey everyone,
As you could have read here, the current release of my code highlighter has some trouble with highlighting PHP on servers running PHP version 4. I told you I should try to fix the problem and include a better PHP highlighter in the next release.
I worked very hard this morning to get PHP fixed, and I’m proud to announce that PHP is almost working the way it should. That means: including servers running PHP4.
You want an example? Sure, here it is:
PHP Code Like It Should
<?php
mysql_connect ($host, $user, $password);
$result = mysql_db_query ('Database', 'select * from table');
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc ($result))
{
echo $row['user_id'];
echo $row['fullname'];
}
mysql_free_result ($result);
?>
So, What’s Next?
After this highlighter is finished, I create one for JavaScript and properly one for Java. As soon as they all work the way it should, I will release version 1.1.
See you.
In addition to the enlarged if – else statement that you will use in most cases, there is also a short structure for an if – else statement. This format uses the so-called “ternary operator ‘. The syntax of this shorthand structure is as follows:
$var = [condition] ? [true] : [false];
- Condition = The condition which must be met.
- True = Executed if the condition is met.
- False = Executed if the condition failes.
