Starting from today, your browser's "Accept Language" setting is also honored on language sensitive pages on the php.net site. If you would like to get to the documentation page of echo for example, you can use the /echo shortcut on all mirror sites, if your browser is set to provide your language preference information to the server. This also makes the PHP error message links point to the documentation in your preferred language. You can set your preferences under Edit/Preferences/Navigator/Languages in Mozilla, and under Tools/Internet Options/Languages in Internet Explorer. This will probably also enhance your web experience on sites providing translated content.

More bl0gmark tweaks

More bl0gmark tweaks 12/10/2003 07:53 PM

I'm up to 110 blogmarks now, and from my point of view they're the single most useful feature I've added to this site in a long time. I've modified my day archive pages to show the blogmarks added on that day, and I'm considering adding them to individual entry pages as well so that an entry is displayed along with the blogmarks added while that entry was at the top of my blog. The idea there is that I could aim to blogmark "related items" for the top entry, although obviously unrelated sites would end up in there as well.

The other thing I'm currently mulling over is whether or not blogmarks should allow comments. Jason Kottke's inline links get a decent amount of comment traffic but I'm not sure mine would get enough individual traffic to warrant a comments thread for each one. I could always add comments to the blogmark daily archive pages, although that could get confusing on days with a lot of comment-worthy links.

Does anyone actually look at the blogmarks? Would you comment on them or read the comments if they were available?

Browser-Based Printing with MeadCo
ScriptX

Browser-Based Printing with MeadCo
ScriptX 01/03/2005 07:37 PM

I found a peach of a tool today — it was exactly what I was looking for at exactly the right time.

We have a central database at my company, and the guys have been bugging me to work up some enhanced printing for it. They want to be able to print really top-quality reports — you know, the kind that don't look like they were printed from a Web page so they can give them to clients.

I was fiddling around for a while trying to figure out the best way to do it. The obvious solution was to do server-side PDF creation, but all the tools I found left one thing or another to be desired (another post entirely). I thought about linking tables in Access and running reports there, but then we'd have to buy more Access licenses. I even tried instantiating Word client-side and printing to that, but it got to be a mess pretty quickly.

I finally started tackling the problem with CSS. If you use inches for your unit of measurement, set the overflow on your DIVs to "hidden," and use "page-break-before" strategically, you can get some excellent results.

There is, however, one problem: the client's browser printing setup. They probably have their print headers and footers set to something, their page margins are likely all screwy, and they may try to print to portrait when your report is designed for landscape. What to do?

Enter MeadCo's ScriptX. This is an ActiveX control (yes, IE only) that makes IE print the way you want it to without the user hosing things up.

(With SP2 it prompts for installation, but in an intranet environment you can host the CAB file locally and massage security zones via the IE AK to make it transparent.)

For instance, a "Print Me" button on your page could (1) set the header and footer (or — more likely — clear them), (2) set the page margins to whatever value, (3) set the orientation to portait or landscape, and (4) print the currently loaded page to the default printer with no user involvement or prompt (they'd just see the little icon appear in the status bar and pages would start flying off the printer...). From the user's standpoint, it's like magic.

It gets better — you can have ScriptX print the contents of a FRAME or an IFRAME instead of the page it's running in. So you could hide an IFRAME on the page with a printer-friendly version of the displayed content, then print that when the "Print Me" button is clicked. The user would get something totally different than what they were looking at (even far beyond the capabilities of CSS @media rules).

And all that was with the free version.

The advanced version allows you to set the printer, the page size, the collation values, the page range, the number of copies, etc. You can also query printers on the user's system to find out their capabilities. You could very easily use this to print labels to a little Dymo mailing label printer, for instance.

And here's the really cool part: the object can make an independent HTTP call and print the results. So you could have a user paging through a report, but when they press "Print Me," the object goes back to the server to get the entire report and then prints that.

But wait, there's more [cue cheesy informercial guy here] —

It can be used as a server-side COM object too, so it can print stuff based on data in your Web app. Here's a hypothetical — your help desk Web app could accept a new ticket then print a work order to the laser printer sitting next to the computer geek in the department to which the ticket belongs. Or run a batch of reports in the middle of the night and print them to the printer in the CEO's office so they're waiting for him next to his coffee in the morning.

(Mind you, I haven't bought the full version (haven't had to — the free one does everything I need so far), so some of my ranting here is based on my reading of the docs. I could be off a little.)

Needless to say, I'm thrilled. I'm getting PDF-looking results from HTML and CSS, saving me dozens of hours of work. I predict I'll upgrade to the full version before too long.

The old inkjet printer has been getting some more interesting uses lately. There are those who are print ing electronic circuits with them, and those who are print ing food with them -- but why stop there? Some researchers are working on a way to use inkjet printers to spray live human cells on a patient to help regenerate bone and muscle. As you might imagine, it's still quite a ways off, so don't expect to be able to print yourself new body parts just yet. Of course, when old fashioned ink costs more than fine champagne or expensive perfume just imagine how much a bit of muscle tissue is going to set you back.
