MOH: Heroes 2 (Wii)    Author: Jane

Posted in General, Nintendo | |

John and I have been playing Medal of Honor Heroes 2 a lot the past couple of days. The controls are a big improvement from the last one and it’s awesome that it’s now online. Something that’s been really bugging me though is the multiplayer mode. The last MOH had a multiplayer (not online, with 4 Wii Remotes). That was awesome because we could play with our friends here or against each other. Now, (even though it lists 4 players on the back of the game), you can only play multiplayer online and only one player per Wii - no split screen. John and I have to take turns! This really sux! WARNING: If you have a close friend or significant other and you only have one Wii, you will not be able to play together in multiplayer mode! I wish someone would’ve told us this before but most reviews online say nothing about it. Do they think the only people playing FPS’s are lonely people? We were so excited to play online before we found out it was limited to one person. Now, like I said earlier, we have to take turns…

It was awesome but of course any concert with Thrice is awesome. Only problem is that we couldn’t get front row so we ended up going upstairs… :(

Here’s a short clip. =D

Here’s a the code to fix the annoying jumping pages in Firefox caused by lack of vertical content. This code allows for the scrollbar to show even when not needed.
html {
overflow-y: scroll;
}

The song from Fire is titled “Firebreather” and the song from Water is titled “Digital Sea”. Both songs show how Thrice is continuing to evolve with their music. The release date for their new album is Oct. 16, 2007.

Listen to the songs here or visit their MySpace page here.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows    Author: Jane

Posted in Harry Potter | |

Wow! This is an awesome book - I think my favorite of the whole series. This book is so intense almost all the way through. I think there was only one paragraph where it kind of slowed down but was essential to the story none-the-less.

Wow - again. John and I were at Barnes and Noble Friday night for the release and went home right away to get reading. Unfortunately, because we woke up early for work that day - we couldn’t stay up all night. I didn’t go to sleep until 5:30 or so. The next day was filled with reading, eating, and reading some more. It was fun to stop after every chapter and discuss what happened and what we though was going to happen. Or to look at each other in amazement or sadness, or just to revel at how wonderful Jo (J.K. Rowling) had written that chapter. This is seriously the best book (best series) that I have ever read. (and yes, I’ve read other things before lol)

We finally finished on Saturday night. I kind of feel sad like I anticipated. Not from what happens in the book but just because this was the end. No more Harry Potter books, no more continuations, no more theories (well, maybe just a little). At least I can still look forward to the movies. The next (and last) two are going to be awesome for sure!

Good read. I love how it’s getting out that this book is not evil and does not promote evil but instead the opposite.

John and I went to the Rise Against concert Sunday night. It was awesome. Here’s a link to a video I took on one of their songs - Swing Life Away: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7LOiZaNvYXM - ENJOY!

Harry Potter Endorsed by the Catholic Church    Author: Jane

Posted in Harry Potter | |

I’m Catholic and I love reading Harry Potter books (and watching the movies). I’ve always been disappointed and saddened whenever I read about certain people saying that Harry Potter is evil. When you read the books - you can see that it is a fight between good and evil and the book teaches about love, friendship, and a lot of good things.

I found this article online and it said that the Catholic Church has nothing against the Harry Potter series (in other words). http://www.realtruth.org/news/030206-002.html Cool!

Flash Template Contact Form Issues    Author: Jane

Posted in Web Stuff | |

Have you ever purchased a flash template and find out that the documentation is worthless? Yeah - that happens with most templates. I recently purchased a flash template for a client and went through the php code and could not find the right area where you needed to change it to go to your email address. With the help from Leah at www.IWD4U.com - I was able to fix the form. You want to go through all the actionscript code in your flash site (not the php file) until you find this:

rec="emailaddressgoeshere";
serv="php";
var fields_descriptions= Array ("",
Array("t1", "your_name", " Name:"),
Array("t2", "your_email", " E-mail:"),
Array("t3", "telephone", "Telephone:"),
Array("t4", "message", " Message:"),
Array("t5", "field_2", "E-mail:"),
Array("t6", "field_3", "Address:"),
Array("t7", "field_4", "fax:")
);
function reset_txt(name,name2,value) {
path=eval(_target);
path[name2]=value;

this[name].onSetFocus=function() {
path=eval(_target);
if(path[name2]==value) { path[name2]="";}
}

this[name].onKillFocus=function() {
path=eval(_target);
if(path[name2]=="") { path[name2]=value;}
}
}

for (i=1; i< =fields_descriptions.length; i++) {
reset_txt("t"+i, fields_descriptions[i][1], fields_descriptions[i][2]);
}

The rec= part will be different depending on who made the template. You want to change that to your email address or whatever email you want the form to be sent to. I hope this helps because when I did a search on this - I was led to many message boards with people asking the same question but no answer. Here’s the answer - thanks to Leah!

Btw, you do NOT need to change the “recipient” parts on the php form (below). Only change the rec= on the flash form.


if (key($_REQUEST)!=‘recipient’) …

mail($_REQUEST[‘recipient’], $subject, “…
