< Janus>
Yay, a non-weird question for once~
00:17
< Janus>
For jumping, would it make more sense for the upward force to increase as the button is held down, or to keep a constant upward force until it's no longer being held down?
00:18
< gnolam>
Constant until it's no longer held down or the maximum jump time is reached.
00:19
< gnolam>
It's the Platformer Standard (TM).
00:19
< Janus>
Alrighty, thanks Sir~
00:19
< gnolam>
Just remember to not let the player jump again until he's landed.
00:23
< Janus>
Right. The button should only work once for each jump too, so it doesn't missfire if they land and it's still down, right?
01:00
< gnolam>
That's up to you.

How would I be able to create a simple online chatroom?
02:46
< Takyoji>
For example, I was considering on making such a thing for a website of mine which customers could use to contact a representative
02:47
< Takyoji>
could such a thing be done with PHP?
02:47
< Takyoji>
or AJAX?
02:47
< Takyoji>
or...
02:49
< Mischief>
Yes, Vorn. Sorry for the delayed response.
02:49
< Mischief>
I'm buried under about 5 feet of ASP.net and C++/Assembly code
02:49
< Mischief>
I was neck deep about an hour ago, no one saved me. XP
02:50
< Vornicus>
Takyoji: you'd be best off using a Java or Flash client.
02:50
< Mischief>
Takyoji, a common applet is by Java in my opinion. I believe--- What he said
02:51
< Mischief>
Java is fairly simple, I may have an applet laying around if you need it.
02:51
< Takyoji>
hmm
02:51
< Mischief>
It's only client side, however. You will need a IRC-Server and port number to connect the script. :)
02:52
< Vornicus>
while you /can/ make an ajax chat client, it would not be pleasant.
02:52
< Takyoji>
I was thinking that I could host the server on my computer though.. since of course i
02:52
< Takyoji>
as far as?
02:53
< Takyoji>
I'd have to make it save a message in XML and the chat would have to reload an XML doc every couple seconds or what?
02:53
< Takyoji>
I'm also trying to think how I could host the Chat server without giving away my IP address directly
02:54
< Vornicus>
You can't, really
02:54
< Takyoji>
crap..
02:54
< Takyoji>
Well, what's the worst that could happen.. DoS?
02:55
< Mischief>
DNS is a good way to hide your IP from "Lamerz"
02:55
< Vornicus>
Not that good.
02:55
< Mischief>
I suppose thus is the reason for firewalls.
02:56
< Takyoji>
Yea, I also suppose I do need better firewall software right now anyway..
02:56
< Mischief>
Wait, wasn't there.. mydns.com or somesuch?
02:56
< Vornicus>
in fact entirely useless.
02:56
< Mischief>
Gives away free DNSes, My memory isn't that good.
02:56
< Vornicus>
dyndns.org is there. But if you want to run a chat server, you may need to run your chat server on the web server.
02:57
< Mischief>
That's the one
02:57
< Takyoji>
I don't have a dedicated server though
02:57
< Mischief>
Also, I still suggest Zone Alarm :P
02:57
< Takyoji>
k
02:57
< Mischief>
.. For advanced users, I can't stand the thought of a firewall decided program permissions automatically... Just... Ew.
02:58
< Takyoji>
So... ZoneAlarm costs some money, correct?
02:58
< Mischief>
There's a Trial version, but yes.
02:59
< Mischief>
Zone Alarm Pro covers from IM security to Anti-virus, to Spyware.
03:02
< Mischief>
But eh, I forgot, I probably shouldn't be sounding like I'm a salesperson.
03:02 * Mischief yanks Vorn into a PM.

for dyndns, is the DNS server supposed to be (what-ever-you-want).dyndns.com or what?

Usually they just check a referrer header.

20:18

20:18
< jerith>
Well, what are they doing, rather.
20:18
<@ToxicFrog>
They're obfuscating the page source.
20:18
<@ToxicFrog>
The links are generated by Javascript at load time.
20:18
< jerith>
Ah.
20:18
<@ToxicFrog>
The javascript, in turn, generates the link by taking a bunch of strings, concatenating them, and then running them through a demunger.
20:18
< jerith>
Isn't there a firefox plugin to view generated source or somesuch?
20:18
<@ToxicFrog>
And *that* javascript is generated by taking a URL-encoded string, decoding it, and running it.
20:18
<@ToxicFrog>
Probably, but how does that help me?
20:19
< jerith>
Ah, it's all on-c;ick thingies.
20:19
<@ToxicFrog>
No, it's not.
20:20
<@ToxicFrog>
It decodes the JS, runs it, demunges the link, and then calls document.write()
20:20
< jerith>
It might be worth looking at a couple of the webdev plugins. They have JS debugging stuff built in, iirc.
20:20 Vornicus-Latens is now known as Vornicus

Can this firefox plugin be invoked from the command line to dump the generated source to stdout?

If not, it's useless to me.

Oh, you want o automate it?
