Nope, the upload MOD will not be included. (at least not in v3.4) Not everyone has access to the Scripting.FileSystemObject.
We aren't going to add something that only certain people can use. |

How about including the Upload mod? since the one doesn't work in 3.3 it would be great if it could be a part of 3.4. Maybe it could be turned on/off so people could choose to enable upload if the wanted.

No. The mod wors perfectly with 3.3, it just needs very careful installation. It will be rereleased for 3.4 (maybe)

Nathan, your example is valid only when you talk about graphic siggies. When it's a text siggy it won't matter.
What about all thost posts with siggies linking to the broken mod resourse, they are only text, but still they are broken

Point taken, but they don't appear wrong while image siggies immediately mess things up.
Did anyone see my "idea" regarding siggies and locked/deleted users? I'd like to know if that idea is any good

Hmm i never got it to work in 3.3! I remember HuwR tried to help me but still no luck. I really hope you will make this mod for 3.4 then:-)
I can understand you don't want to include it in the new release since not all can use it (didn't think of that)

beta 9 was released today. If there are no problems found with it, we should have a final release pretty soon.
Major work left to do:
inc_functions.asp is going to be broken into smaller more relevant files and only the parts that are needed will be included in each file. |

Any chance you could pull the SQL code out into an inlcude file(s)?

Why include the SQL strings? It would just make more lines for the CPU to dig through each time it ran the page.

I'm guessing so that they can be changed to SP's or something easier. What would be ideal really is having an abstratcion layer that all calls went via, then you could easily implement SP's or other changes without too much effort.

I have used this approach in the past, all the SQL strings were defined in an include like this
ThisSQLcommand = "SELECT * FROM TABLE WHERE ID=%1" (not normaly using select *) the queries where then used by doig
Replace(ThisSQLcommand,"%1",ThisID)
or something along those lines anyway.

Converting the SQL to includes does several things. First, it's easier to convert to stored procedures or different unofficially supported databases.
Second, it makes it easier to maintain. If you add a field to the DB for a mod, you know exactly the place to look to update the code.
Third, it encourages code re-use. Mod builders can easily re-use existing SQL code. This also makes maintenance easier when the SQL is updated; you may not have to update my mod, because it uses the same core SQL code.
Finally, Includes are very quick. There's no perceptible impact on performance by converting sections of code to includes.
My montra: Think modular, not monolithic!
