HTML Tag Checker

Thu, 7th Aug 08

I've been writing this little tool, that checks the HTML tags of a web page to identify any obvious mistakes. It is surprising how many websites contain mismatched tags. See for yourself!

Bazosoft Battleships-Online Free Online Game

Sat, 26th Jul 08

Wow. I don't think I've ever been so productive! As the title says, I've been creating a new online web-browser game in the style of the classic Battleships board game. You can play against people from all over the world! As far as my searches have shown, there doesn't appear to be a browser-based battleships style game out there, so this would be (one of?) the first ones created :

Comments System Improved!

Thu, 24th Jul 08

Hello folks! The comments system has been re-enabled as I've created a full back-end to it now. All comments go through moderation before being accepted on our website. So no more hassle from spam!

During the spamming period, I noticed that even after disabling the Submit button on the comment form, spam was still getting through. Logic suggests that spam bots simply flood your website's pages with many HTTP POST requests until something hits. They do not need a working comment submission form to do this!

So if you've had trouble with spam getting through, you'll have to totally disable the backend to your comment system (in our case, we had to comment out all my PHP code! Ack!).

Spicy Chicken Salad

Fri, 16th May 08

This is so quick and easy to make, a lot of chopping, but the more you do it the faster you get! We have been trying to have this everyday or every second day to try and eat more raw veg. You don't have to have chicken either all the time, I just do it every so often for a change and because it's yummy!

New Gallery - Close Up Photos

Sat, 19th Apr 08

I always used to wonder how the pro's were able to capture such crystal clear close up photos. Well now I know how (thanks Norbert), and I would have known sooner if I had read the manual for our camera!

Visit the gallery here

Also worth a mention, is another blog I've been following.

The Truth About Lies

And here's my favourite quote from Jim.

"Personally I don't like the word 'blog' – it's an unattractive word. It's the kind of noise your baby would make if you dropped it inadvertently into a vat of treacle." - Jim Murdoch

My Hand At Texas Hold'em

Sat, 29th Mar 08

Four days ago I decided to have a go at online poker, with Play Money (fake money!) just to see how I would get on. I'd not played a lot of poker, and as a result, my skill and experience was pretty bad. I was making stupid mistakes, over and over.After loosing about $1000 in Play Money, I started to get frustrated! My luck seemed bad, and certain players at the table appeared to have consiste
