CodeExtinguisher's Website Code

[eluser]Majd Taby[/eluser]
Hey everybody, in the spirit of helping and total transparency, I made the svn repo for CodeExtinguisher's accompanying site public. Meaning, you guys can browse and look at the source, hopefully to see how a website can be structured. You can view the website through http://codeExtinguisher.com, and the code through http://71.65.20.84:82/svn/codex_site


Specific files:
This file will show you how to use pagination (Plugins:how)
This file will show you how to use validation (Plugins::write)
This file will show you how to setup a CodeExtinguisher controller
This file will show you how to setup access restrictions to your controllers using CodeExtinguisher
This file defines two post_controller hooks
And this file uses the above defined hooks

Enjoy

Nice community contribution Zaatar, thanks!

CodeExtinguisher has the potential of taking CodeIgniter to a larger audience. Great work.

P.S. I attempted to download the TextArea plugin from the Codex site, but the zip file wasn't recognized as a zip file by my browser and gibberish was displayed.

[eluser]Majd Taby[/eluser]
Hm, well the TextArea plugin (http://codeextinguisher.com/index.php/pl...display/61) is a php file download (I did it like that so you can just tell the browser to save it into the plugin directory...eliminating a step), maybe that's what's causing the problem. I'll look more into it, if that's the problem, i'll just zip up the files and add a Readme. Thanks coolfactor, JamesD

Unfortunately not every browser behaves the same way with regards to downloads. I'm using Safari and I've never come across a site that presents the "Save" dialog box that IE and FF use. I can get that dialog box manually by right-clicking and choosing "Save as...", but not through a regular download.

There's a version of Safari for Windows if you wanted to try it out there.

[eluser]Majd Taby[/eluser]
Oh you're having this problem on Safari/mac? hmm, it works fine for me...i'll try it in school tomorrow.




p.s. I'm a shameless apple fanboy, please don't insult me like that again

[eluser]coolfactor[/eluser]
LOL... sorry man, me too! :-)

[eluser]staar2[/eluser]
Ty, this is great source! I am going to look at it tomorrow.

[eluser]Majd Taby[/eluser]
sorry for the downtime, i'll get setup on a VPS server soon so that I can host my projects on it.

There is but its really buggy. I've seen it installed on 4 different pcs with XP on each of them, but they all exit after a couple of clicks.
