H3XED Website Update (May 2011)
Posted May 27, 2011 by Nick Vogt in Miscellaneous
Welcome to the 4th version of the site. I rebuilt it from scratch as the old version had some rather outdated code and database schema. I added tags and series features. Tags are self-explanatory, and series are groups of posts that are related, which I can create to make it easier for you to find related posts. Right now I just have ActionScript 3 Tutorials, but I plan to add some more.
I have also expanded the keyword index for each post, and the function is a lot smaller thanks to preg_replace and me finally getting off my butt and learning regular expressions (I don't know how I lived without them!). The search should be a little quicker since I decided to do away with the keyword relevancy sorting and just use a larger index. I hope it doesn't come up with too many irrelevant results. If it does, I may have to revise it.
Oh, and I also revised the comment system. You can now reply to comments. I chose not to implement the emailing system, but may in the future.
Next on the list: URL rewriting. But first I have to move to a different server. Still haven't done that yet.
One last thing. The Facebook like/share button at the bottom of the posts doesn't work yet. It's not playing nicely with my query string data. This is part of the reason why I want to do URL rewriting. That, and "h3xed.com/post/155/" would be so much nicer than "h3xed.com/post.php?id=155".
