Comments fix?

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Andy tells me that he got aspcomments working with the new, longer blogids that the new version of blogger is going to be kicking out. I haven’t tried it yet on the test blog, but probably will tonight.

Hmm here’s a pretty good hint that I should learn more about programming myself, huh? I knew there must be something in the ASP code itself that was causing it to not work with a text field but didn’t know enough to find it. Thanks for the info Andy!

Update: I tried Andy’s fix on both the Office 2003 blog and my test Dano blog. On the 2003 blog it works fine, on the Dano blog it works, but the counts don’t work. I’ve looked at everything over and over and they seem to have identical setups, identical coding and identical databases, but the one with 9 digit blogid’s counts, while the 18 digit blogid’s don’t. I may just have to live with that….

    For all the good intentions I had, the laptop never even got powered on all weekend. We arrived home safely this evening after spending the weekend in Johnson City, TN.

    A couple of interesting things seen in newsletters today. First there’s today’s Spyware Info Weekly which talks about accusations of reverse engineering and fraud among different anti-spyware apps. Interesting stuff, I think we’d all do well to make sure we aren’t using a fake spyware killer. Then, from today’s LangaList comes a pointer to Fred’s…

    Since the Office beta expired I took advantage of the fact that I needed to uninstall all of it to switch my email client over to Thunderbird. It’s always interesting to try new stuff. I can tell you one thing I don’t like already. It creates a new set of folders for each account instead…

    Naturally when I arrived in the office this morning, my own website was down, email servers and everything. Not a good way to start the day, but about 30 minutes later it seems to be back in working order again. Whew! I did, yesterday, get the old comments exported from YACCS and after some clean…
