Seriously. Recently I’ve had the "pleasure" of working with some pretty messed up projects. Basically, I've been called in to put out a fire caused by some work that another "web designer" had done. Here’s a newsflash, websites are not just single high-resolution jpegs inserted between <html> tags.
I don't like the way Firefox 2 handles closing tabs. Here's how I fixed my Firefox to get back to the behaviour I wanted.
I can't believe I just discovered this now. The Tamper Data extension for Firefox.
TamperData is an extension to track and modify http/https requests. It is great for security testing and just in general trying to break your applications. In fact, if breaking is what you want to do, check out the pre-packaged built in SQL Injections, Cross Site Scripting (XXS) vulnerabilities and other goodies.
So we've folded over 3500 points, and the number of active folders is growing every day! Keep it up all!
You can visit the Code Igniter Folding Team page to learn more about folding, or for instructions on joining us.
Hot on the heels of Firefox2, another magnificent piece of software has been released. Code Igniter 1.5 is out and now available for download!
It contains loads of new improvements and enhancements including database caching, a table class, an FTP library, and download helpers. Even implemented are versions of a list helper, and table->clear()!
Get it now. http://www.mozilla.com/
Good God I hate the new location of the tab closing button.

$this->load->folding('code_igniter');
}
I’ve started a folding team for Code Igniter, and put up a quick team page.
Those of you who know me know that I spend a lot of time teaching. I've even won a few pretty nice teaching awards for it (other award was at Seneca College). So I was very surprised to hear what my students really thought of me!

Now I have a complex!
Get it while it's steaming!

One of the great things about Code Igniter is the community that has built up around it. They write plugins, offer enhancements, and welcome new users openly in the forums. One of the interesting things the community has done is write many language translations for the framework. ReynierPM has written spanish language translations, which I’ve offered to host for him here on derekallard.com.
