Uniport ~ New website

June 15th, 2008 by Maria

Uniport builds commercial working environments, producing and delivering high quality, secure and efficient solutions for the commercial marketplace.

I’ve created the XHTML and CSS parts of these pages.
My favorite part of this website is the page titles, created with the logo icon and a dotted underline.

RSS Merger v1.2

June 14th, 2008 by Makis

With this script you can load a number of RSS feeds and compile them into one RSS 2.0 file. Use it to present a mash-up of your news from different places (blogs, twitter etc.) or just present news from other sources around the Net.

Here is a sample of the RSS output, taken from our own network of websites.

This was a complete re-write for PHP 5 which has the SimpleXML extension that makes XML parsing a walk in the park. If you are still using PHP 4 though you can just use the older version.

CommonCode.info

June 13th, 2008 by Makis

This website had been online for a while now but was never promoted as a resource site and was mainly used as a private tool for my online work. Now its been styled visually and released as a public service:

It is basically a database of code snippets I’ve gathered throughout the years of programming. Most of this code was resourced online at some point in the past so I’m simply putting online all that knowledge in one central place.

But on the development side I just created a skin for MediaWiki, to make the whole experience more comfortable.

After a month and a half of gathering notes and fixing glitches, the updated engine is ready for you to use. Of course this was scheduled to be a bug-fix release over the previous version (as no program is bug-free from version 1.0) but in the process many new interesting features were added. Let’s outline some of the things that changed…

SWFbox v1.21

June 8th, 2008 by Makis

SWFbox is a lightweight JavaScript file to present flash files as pop-ups on a page, pretty much like Lightbox does for images. Each SWFbox is dependent only by the id of the parent div (the swfName variable). That way you can have more than one SWFboxes in any page.

This is a minor bug-fix version over the previous one. I was waiting for more bugs to come in before I made another release but I guess it was pretty stellar. Thanks to everyone for downloading so far ;)
