Civil Forums Updates

Klaatu is not having an easy time of it. Here is the E-mail he
sent out:
Hello, I have been running at a high frustration level trying to
figure out what to do. The basic features of the Civil Forums
software was running ten days ago with only a few minor
glitches. Then Firefox updated itself last week!! I don't do
auto updates. That shouldn't have anything to do with anything
but my test setup (Windows7, Eclipse PDT, XDebug, PHP and XAMPP
became screwy. MySQL is OK. Programs that were fine and haven't
been touched show syntax errors but the techies I've talked to
say the code is fine, it looks like the Eclipse editor has
failed in ways that they have never seen.
There is something stupid going on. I probably can't fix it, I
will have to learn how to avoid. I will probably have to set up
a 2nd test system.
I will be putting the code on civilforums.net, run it, fix the
problems, and then turn it off until I'm sure it's safe. It is
the hard old fashioned way of debugging things.
I had accomplished a lot in a very short time with the good
tools I had, but they have gone south.
Add to that I have had to help several people with emergencies
so I haven't had much time in the past few days. But being away
from it helps you think of new things.
To keep us in touch with each other, I've set up a mailing list
at Yahoo Groups for us. I've minimized my talking with you so I
cold pound on the software.

I guess ya gotta be intuitive: I'm running Linux on my 12-yr-old
PC, Vista home basic on my wife's PC, and Vista home premium on
this laptop; none of them have any problem accessing anything,
(except my wife's after she hits the wrong key sequence, or
something, and then by the time I go upstairs to look at it,
it's mysteriously fixed itself! >:()
But I'm a retired IBM computer engineer, and a
jack-of-all-trades; still doesn't explain the poltergeist stuff,
but the poltergeists back off when they see me coming! :D

Klaatu is on a Mac, so I don't think he's up to speed on PC
stuff. Maybe you could help?

I was told that this colour is one of the site testes, Meta is
waiting for the finishes to the upgrade before changing anything
on this site...

If you all are having issues with the color theme... just wait
for a few. I'll change it soon as the upgrades are done with and
they should be done within this week.
It was just a temporary test theme as it's compatible with the
new layout and upgrades.
and thanks, Graz :)
