What the heck is a “trimidiformial”? and why was I messing with it? Is it catching?

“Live Writer Causes Host to Switch to PHP 5!”

What a headline! Did I ever tell you how much I like coming here?

K8 – You should find it is a big help. As for the other; I haven’t a clue, and you know Ron is in Thailand or somewhere.

Kirk M – You started it by suggesting Live Writer. Don’t go blaming your hoster. That’s an excuse and you know it. Anyway, if your hoster is playing silly buggers, it serves you right for getting cheap hosting.

I did not start it! Our mutual host is switching all their servers over to PHP 5 without prior notice to anyone and eliminating PHP 4 on said switched servers while they’re at it. Sixty was one of the first victims. I’m waiting for my take down since they haven’t gotten around to my server yet.

On Windows Live writer. It’s very well behaved and works like a charm for WordPress (both types) blogger (with an FTP upload setup unless blogger now allows upload of images via API) and just about any other blogging platform out there that allows image uploads via API or FTP whether it’s hosted or your own. I’ve used it since day one.

@Geeky Chick: The default output is straight html but you can easily change it over to xhtml via the options.

By the way, in my usual inappropriate and ‘What’s THAT got to do with the price of eggs’ way, my incoming links on Wordpress aren’t incoming! People who are linking to me must think me an awfully ignorant cow. What’s up with that, yo? Give Ron a clip round the ear for me, willya?

You will never use wordpress again.

Code is poetry my arse.

As for validation – the only things that f*ck up my site are Google and a couple of plugins!!

Diane – Yup. That’s me. I don’t speak Binary. Only Hexadecimal.

Ian – I find there is nothing like a bit of bell-wire between the mains socket and the chassis. I get quite a buzz out of it.

Deborah – That’s what you get for being a cheapskate

Sixty – Heh!! Blame Kirk. He started it!!

It’s a very clever yoke.

Now, I must try my Simon and Garfunkel LPs and if that works I have some transparencies from a church slide show about missionaries in Africa that I could put on the web. With such technology, it should soon be possible to tune my wireless into the BBC Home Service.
