Neither am I, but I want to do a few "minor" things, so I have to learn how to do it. I tried setting up the urldecode function, but I couldn't seem to get the syntax right or something, because every time I tried to implement it, I'd get a 500 error. I don't know what I'm doing wrong, but it...

OK, I had that formatting problem where spaces became "+", "&" became %3F, etc. Obviously there's some kind of text encoding problem, but I'm too much of a novice to figure it out right now. I'm lucky I got where I did! And I didn't use any AI to do it!! Anyway, what I did instead was hack...

Alas, you're probably right, and much already has been lost: I think several years worth of posts from 2006 and early 2007, then several months worth in 2021, so their history unfortunately has some rather conspicuous gaps in it. In contrast, I've seen other forums whose complete and...

I think I liked the phpBB version best. Anyway, for fun, I found that the Wayback Machine has archived the home page of the 68kMLA as it appeared on April 5, 2007 (two days before it was lost). It's very tantalizing to see all those threads apparently intact, but they're all dead ends, so the...

Yes, the name is hardcoded into the script, and the software POSTs the data, such as it is, to the PHP file. It is, but I can probably change it to an internal address. Me too! c

@ClassicHasClass I got it! I used this bit of PHP mentioned in the Reddit comments: https://www.php.net/manual/en/features.file-upload.put-method.php And now it's working! Mostly. Spaces are coming across as plus signs (for example: "Terrance+Boylan - Sundown+of+Fools"), which is kind of...

I don't have anything set up at the other end (what is CGI other than Computer Generated Imagery?? EDIT: Ah, some quick research tells me it means Common Gateway Interface) because I figured it was automatic, but perhaps it's not? I'd love to use PUT, but the software I'm using only supports...

I have an audio streaming project, and I'd like to have my playlist automation and playback software update a text file named 'nowplaying.txt' via the HTTP POST command so that a basic web page I created can parse that file (I haven't figured out how yet) and display it on the web page so the...

Yesterday I was using my Late 2013 A1398, and everything seemed OK, but a bit slower than usual. So I close everything down and reboot. The result? A scrambled OS with irreparable filesystem corruption. I had been running Sequoia via OCLP, but since this was the second time this happened, I...

The price in the title is insane. However, what I must assume are the "real" prices, while still rather high, are MUCH more reasonable. c

I couldn't agree more! And I, too, bought an iPad (a 3 from early 2012), and it was fun for awhile, but I haven't used it in YEARS, and now even if I wanted to, it's too old to do anything. I'd have to buy a newer one, which probably isn't going to happen any time soon, since I have no need...

The ANS has suddenly become much more interesting and useful! That said, with all that is being learned here, might it someday be possible to create a single hybrid ROM that can boot the factory AIX, Mac OS/Mac OS X (with necessary patches so internal SCSI and video work) and Windows NT? I...

Ha! I guess I'm the first! I agree that it's a good idea. It's practical and useful, which is not only fun, but it also allows for more opportunities to actually use our old Macs for somewhat modern things, which is increasingly hard to do because they're so thoroughly outmoded, especially...

Agreed! The vintage Mac-accessible classic site is also a fun thing that has been talked about for YEARS, but never actually done. Until now! I wonder if TinkerDifferent could implement something similar? c

It seems that there has been a genuine effort to make amends for the extended period of neglect these past several months. The CPU ranks have been reimplemented, and now there's a neat classic version for classic Macs! It's nice to see the site getting some much-needed care and attention for a...
