PostNuke

Footnote: 1

Hundreds of developers will settle into the beautiful Julia Morgan theater for a full program, including:

• Keynote by Ted Nelson
  
  
• Presentations from 11 open source CMS projects, including Midgard, PostNuke, RedHat CCM, WebDAV, Wyona/Cocoon, and Zope
  
  
• Developer day for hands-on work in a tutorial setting with many of the projects
  
  
• Social events such as a group dinner to meet the leaders in content management as well as other developers
  

Developers working in the field of content management will find OSCOM Berkeley 2002 a can't-miss event, plus a chance to participate in a growing movement. Open source is a leading force in the software industry in general, and in content management in particular. The market has no established leaders, low international acceptance, and high customer dissatisfaction. Thus, the OSCOM movement is working to help developers collaborate, but also to educate the CMS market regarding the benefits of open source choices.

OSCOM Berkeley 2002 is the second in an international series of events. The inaugural conference was held in Zurich, Switzerland during March 2002, and proved a tremendous success. A third event is being planned for Tokyo.

The conference will be held September 25-27 in Berkeley, CA. Early bird registration is available from the <a target=_top href="http://www.oscom.org/">website with a two-day pass for $300 and three-day pass for $400. Students discounts are available.

So, here's the deal.

Come to <a href="http://www.baybridge.us"target=new>The BayBridge , the site that brings the San Francisco Bay Area together and look at the front page.

On the left you will see a tote board, complete with total dollars and who gave. There is also a real-time countown clock, counting down the days, hours, minutes and seconds until Roxanne sets out on her almost 100km walk!

On the right is a thank you box with a special surprise for you AFTER you have made a pledge.

Now, most importantly. Click the blue AVON icon and you will be taken to AVON's official donation page. Using Roxanne's event number and participant number, makei a pledge!

As soon as we get word from the pledge director that you made a pledge, you name goes on the tote board! (send NewsGuy a note if you would like to remain anonymous)

Now, go into the download section and get the code for the entire left block, including the countdown timer! As a Bonus, I wil also put in the right block--complete with the "surprise"!

Pat yourself on the back for being so cool.

Try out my interactive crossword puzzle on the site.

Hang around. If you have some interesting news to post, post it!

Come back often and visit!

Guys and Gals. This is a big deal. We really need your help. Please, do it for someone's Mom, Wife, Girldfriend, Daighter, Dad... yes, I said "Dad". Guys can get Breast Cancer too.

Footnote: 1

We now allow various html elements to be placed in stories and faqs etc, but both of these modules conver every new line to a <br /> which causes quite serious formatting issues.

This is a suggestion on how this problem could be addressed, which may also be applicable to the other config variable we set in PN

The first step would be to create a pnNL2BR() function in pnHTML . All occurences of nl2br() in the core code would then be replaced with the pnNL2BR().

We then need to be able to define when newlines are converted and when they are not.
We need to create a 'default hierarchy'. The 'Convert NL to BR' variable neds to be set(able) at site, module and item (individual article, faq answer etc) levels.

Each lower level (if set) overrides the higher level.

For example: Most of your site's input is from contributors who have little knowledge of HTML. So the site default of 'Convert NL to BR' would be 'Yes'.

However, your FAQ answers are maintained by and HTML guru who like complete control over formatting. So for the module FAQ, the 'Convert NL to BR' is set to 'No'. Occasionally, the Guru receives an FAQ answer via email and wants to 'cut and paste' without any changes. For this particular FAQ answer, the 'Convert NL to BR' would be set to 'Yes'

pnNL2BR() would check the hierarchy from the bottom up, deciding wether or no to do the newline to 'br /' conversion.

This hierachy of config values really needs to be applied to many of the config settings in PN - giving admins the flexibility they crave...

So, here's the deal.
