Start up Web 2.0

I have been trying to get TeetDeck the Twitter client which runs on Adobe Air to run on my Ubuntu box this weekend and have just run into problem after problem.  But found plenty of resources that would help.  I’m running it on KDE and Air just didn’t seem to be too friendly to KDE Wallet even after following all the workarounds.  I was thinking of writing a tutorial but I’m not exactly sure what fixed it in the end but deleting the KDE wallet and creating a new one named kdewallet and kdewallet2 seemed to do the trick.  Anyway now it’s running it’s great client much better than the other I have tried even has the possibility to link to other social media accounts lik facebook, myspace and linkedin.

Well those guys at Ellis Labs EllisLab are really cranking out the versions of CodeIgniter, two versions in the space of about six weeks that amazing. Their decision to have ExpressionEngine running of the CodeIgniter code base is really benefiting the development cycle which seems like it’s screaming along at full pace, nice work guys!!.

I’ve updated the the new functions and also corrected a few oversights, I’ve also removed the old style active record from the menu (ciar +  tab) the function calls are still the same they’re just hidden.  I’ve also updated all active record method names to use the new naming convention as a couple had slipped through the net. The major changes are listed below:

DBForge Library (cidbf):

• Added create_table
• Added drop_table
• Added rename_table

Input Library (ciinput):

• Added get_post
• Added get
• Modified post to set XSS filtering param

ActiveRecord Library (ciar & ciar*):

• Removed old active record library from menu (ciar still works but is now hidden)
• All depreciated functions now use new function names
• Fixed get, get_where snippets
• Added start_cache (ciar & ciarc)
• Added stop_cache (ciar & ciarc)
• Added flush_cache (ciar & ciarc)

And thats about it, the download is on the usual page. If you want to be informed of any new updates drop me an email at luci3n[at]sellersrank.com and I’ll notify you when I release.  E-TextEditor users the download is normally added a few days later because I don’t have windows and if anyone is looking to be a test user I’ll happily send you a copy before I put it on the download list.

Download Textmate / E-TextEditor CodeIgniter Bundle

As CodeIgniter 1.6.1 is released I thought is was a good time to update the Textmate bundle and release it ready to keep it inline with the latest release.I’ve been adding the extra funtionality as it was added to the framework and would appreciate any feedback from users.  The main difference between this version and the previous are the major changes to the database function especially the active record which has so many functions it is now practically useless to type ciar and tab and easily get the function you want so I left the old funtionality and added the earlier method of ciar and the ciarw lists all the functions.  This makes it easier to quickly locate the desired funtion.

I’ve also created a version which can be imported into E-TextEditor for windows users after a number of requests which can both be found on the download page.

Please leave you feedback in the comments or alternatively you can contact me at luci3n (at) sellersrank.com.
