Support stop SOPA-PIPA movement
Thursday, January 19th, 2012“Google launched a petition. Wikipedia voted to shut itself off. Senators’ websites went down just from the sheer surge of voters trying to write them. NYC and SF geeks had protests that packed city blocks.
You made history today: nothing like this has ever happened before. Tech companies and users teamed up. Tens of millions of people who make the internet what it is joined together to defend their freedoms. The free network defended itself. Whatever you call it, the bottom line is clear: from today forward, it will be much harder to mess up the internet.
The really crazy part? We might even win.
Approaching Monday’s crucial Senate vote there are now 35 Senators publicly opposing PIPA. Last week there were 5. And it just takes just 41 solid “no” votes to permanently stall PIPA (and SOPA) in the Senate. What seemed like miles away a few weeks ago is now within reach.
But don’t trust predictions. The forces behind SOPA & PIPA (mostly movie companies) can make small changes to these bills until they know they have the votes to pass. Members of Congress know SOPA & PIPA are unpopular, but they don’t understand why–so they’re easily duped by superficial changes.
The Senate returns next week, and the next few days are critical.”
Internet Explorer and JavaScript copyright problem
Saturday, December 31st, 2011The reason was simple. Did you guess already?
Yes, that was the former and noisy for almost every web developer browsers compatibility issue. There are no any problem with FireFox and Google Chrome. The only Internet Explorer (I tested versions from 6.0 to 8.0) automatically replaces ‘©’ part in the ‘©_from_user_role’ URL parameter name inside JavaScript code to the copyright © sign. That’s invalid role name inserted into WordPress database and the whole user roles and capabilities list crashes as a result. To isolate this problem I should use other name for this URL parameter – user_role_copy_from.
Wow!!! It started work as expected. Thank you, darling Microsoft.
