Coomer is having trouble getting onto the site because of the nameserver not updating yet, this is what he would like to let everyong know about the new updates he has spent months workin on! enjoy!!

Fully Recoded Backend
The entire backend, including the database connectivity, login system, forum integration, and more, has been completely recoded from scratch, to alleviate many of the problems with the old backend.

More Robust Photo Uploads
Photo uploads should now be faster due to using native PHP functions for dealing with most of the photo processing. Also, if a photo is uploaded that is not a valid photo, it will not upset the other photo uploads, and the site will let you know which photos didn't work. Also, resized photos should generally be much better quality than they previously were.

Previous and Next Photo Links
Now when you view a photo for a how-to article, part, or a member's uploaded photo, you'll be able to easily go to the previous or next photos with one click.

Past Featured Rides Page
There is now a page which displays all of the past and the current featured ride. This page is linked to on the intro page, and is available here.

Optimized Members' Rides Listing
The Members' Rides section has been heavily optimized, so that the list of members will now load much quicker than it used to. Average query time has been reduced from around eight seconds to around one-fifth of a second.

Hey Coomer I dig the new site. I will b*tch and moan when something does not work. I like the gradients displayed throughout the site. The Airal/bold font has that nice trendy web/Microsoft look going for it. Keep up the good work.

ps html formatting in threads would be really nice, but I guess its time to learn some UBB.

I dont know about everyone else, but I like to use HTML tags. I use them on a daily basis.


Why not enable that here?

On the forums? Because a simple </div> tag would cause major troubles, as could <script> tags, and many other tags could cause problems as well. wink.gif

I'm not totally sure about PHP since I'm just starting to work with it intensively, but I know in ASP that you can use the replace() feature, so that when someone posts something, before it goes into the database, it will replace the current word, or letters to blank. Below is what the code would look like if it was in asp, I'll try to code it in php for you so you could use it.

lets first say that I was to type into one of these post:

<div>blah blah</div>

or

<script> document.write 'hello'; </script>

then I would tell the script when it processes whats in the text box, to do this

replace(request("message"), "<div>", "")
replace(request("message"), "</div>", "")


or

replace(request("message"), "<script>", "")
replace(request("message"), "</script>", "")


and that would keep it from allowing what you put into the message.

Hopefully this helps, and I can get you the code in PHP.

Hey Coomer, if you need to switch ever to another server, I'm running a server with PHP. Let me know what you need to keep the website up and going and I could quote you a price, and I would be less than $25 a month.

Heh </div> and </script> dont work in Invision , phpBB, vBulletin, there is a html tag control within the forum code which only allows certain tags like bold, italic, horiziontal rule, links...

<html>, <head>, <script>, <div>, <table> etc are not allowed.

yes, that is true DmVinny, but on website I've created, I have enabled HTML code into messages, but I had to add those lines into it to allow my users to be able to post, but not screw up my site.
