lamp webstuff tools
I’ve been back and forth lately on sticking with this blog engine. It’s good… it does the job… but I also set up wordpress for something else, and it’s really that much nicer. I’m going to have to see if I can migrate the stuff from here to there.
I also started messing with Joomla to set up a silly site, and it’s really good. I like the simplicity of the template/css editing (with some usability caveats), and the configurability of display stuff at all kinds of levels. The install went nice and quickly, and from what I’ve seen of the code, it’s nice and lean.
The last tool isn’t something I’m new to, but it’s something I’ve done a lot of exploring with lately. JQuery takes nearly all the pain out of JavaScript for me, whittling it down to just what’s needed to get some interesting and fancy stuff running. I’ve had some trouble with the quality of the plugins, though. If anyone has any good scripts for edit-in-place + select lists, let me know. Doing multi-forms on one page is getting to be a bit cumbersome with the scripts I’ve found.
