doubts about UBB 6.1.0 speed improvements

UBB.Dev

I put in some good word for UBB at sitepointforums but nobody takes UBB seriously these days.

heheh... you might as well post that at vb

The admin at sitepoint is one of vb's moderators

[edit: plus several of sitepoints moderators too apparently.. they admit to being somewhat biased in that thread

Oh I C ..

Actually, I hedge my bets that UBB 6.1 is actually slowered than UBB 6.05x in terms of raw speed but much, much better in terms of CPU load (the load is now spread out more evenly).

qasic

6.1.0 will be a small bit more intense on the processor, but not nearly enough to notice during day to day use.

However, the REAL change is in the I/O reduction, which is responsible for what most perceive as CPU use.....

Surely you've all seen how comparatively fast UBBDev got after the upgrade!

Actually, I find UBBDev to be muuuuuuuch slooooower now that it is trying to load that icon from w3.org

-Tacks

I pulled that link until w3 gets their act together... mebbe another victom of code red?

eet's fast now

w00t!

Lightning fast now!!!

Great job guys

-Tacks

*edit-Graemlins are now well liked by edit post*

Much better now AllenAyres!

Allen...

http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ubbdev.com%2Fubbcgi%2Fultimatebb.cgi&doctype=Inline

I think I might just include a text reference... that way they don't slow us down

You can download the icon to ubbdev.com

Grazi.

Still having problems with the trademark symbol.. alt0153 doesn't validate and the & #0153; only validates some of the time...

hmmm, I may just change the wording so we don't have to use them in the titles.

™ is validated when it's the only problem.

[edit: forgot the ;]

Once again, you are correct sir

I know you haven't finished changing anything, but you're using the icon from www.w3.org.

I find the forum to go a bit faster than when we were on 6.0, But Some pages can take more than average time to load, Like the Main page.

Which main page LD, ultimatebb.cgi or index.shtm ?

Ultimatebb.cgi, But It can be because you have a long list of Forums.

this page validates...

lessee if this one killed it

test

validate [quote]

yeah, that's the last thing left (I think

)...

"Error: element "blockquote" not allowed here; possible cause is an inline element containing a block-level element "

Close tag

ok, that fixed it, tho the font size needs to be fixed

lessee if editing breaks it

Could you maybe put a target="_blank" on that text w3 link allen? I do not want to get strayed from ubbdev.

So put the font tag again, inside the

that's the deal, it's already there, in all places that I closed and then re-opened the font tags.

code:

Code


</font><blockquote><font size="1" face="$vars_styl etc..

Testing CODE...

That works! Nice job AA & LK.

Now then...something about hard to read small print

-Tacks

code:

Code

... ont size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, Arial"><pre>Originally posted b ...
                                                        ^Error: element "pre" not allowed here; possible cause is an inline element containing a block-level element (explanation...)

PREs don't need

Also, in sub ConvertReturns and prep_for_edit replace & with & unless it's one of those &codes;

[ August 09, 2001: Message edited by: LK ]

code:

Code

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, Arial">
did I fix it?
</font>

huh? did I?

Remove these tags, they aren't needed at all

You're not allowed to use images in [code]s

when editing the above post, everything above the [ code ] disappears...

where in those subs you mentioned is there an &? I didn't see one

I mean when Tacks said "AA & LK"

Whoops...don't worry, I removed the "7" key from my keyboard...won't be typing any bad characters anytime soon...well at least not without a ""

You guys deserve a lot of credit...cleaning up is tedious work

-Tacks

grazi.. it's just about done...

click on "edit" for my post with the quote and the code in it... everything about code disappears...

This:

[perl]
#!/usr/bin/perl
[/perl]

Either it doesnt work, or its disabled.

The page validates

I didn't know [perl] was ever a valid ubb code?

It wasn't in the stock UBB, it was a modification by Ell.

oops.. yeah... a few by ell and cal will need to be re-added back in we are running completely new scripts now.

Allen: use:

code:

Code

<pre style="font-size:x-small">

for code, so it will be in the original UBB size

[faq=4]

Does the FAQ work?

thanks LK... how's about font face? the style should pick up on the $vars_style{FontFace} I think....

Greg, did it work?

Try:

code:

Code

<pre style="font-size:x-small; font-family:$vars_style{FontFace};">

But It's not supposed to be like that

[ August 10, 2001: Message edited by: LK ]

Also, I hate those uncolored

s.
Fix:

code:

Code

<hr size="1" style="color:$vars_style{hr_color}" />

nice... thanks for the fixes LK

One really really really really last thing

Even though W3C doesn't check it, don't use in a JavaScript, use:

code:

Code

<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
<![CDATA[
blablabla
]]>
</script>

Just found an excellent source, http://w3.one.net/~ryexley/XHTML.shtml

muchas gracias again, I'll check that link...

We plan to add them back in greg... they worked, so it should be easy enough once the code stabilizes.

Allen, nevermind, IE 6.0 didn't show it at all, and it says 'since XML parsers are permitted to completely ignore comments, this is no longer recommended'

hmmm... do we have a problem here?

Yes, I can't read your browser buttons

what are you seeing jeo?

as you can see(?)

yes, sorry, I haven't added LK's fixes yet... I'll post when they are added in... give me a few minutes to pull the files up.

[code][/code]

testing

Hmm this thread has gone way off topic.

Certify, please update your signature so it will be XHTMLed

I think I'll sign onto the server and assist everyone in getting xhtml'ized with a global search and replace of a few things

No, there's no problem. Just use a microscope.
