This week my domain referral and Hosting have been updated, and barring the lack of ASP support on my new hosting provider everything seems to have gone very well. Initially I was caught on the hop as the transfer occurred faster than I expected, but last night I simply updated the redirects and I am all back in business.
Big thanks to DreamHost for the new home, and also to RedAppleHosting for the old home. The reason for the move was purely a want for some Ruby on Rails support, which is something I have wanted to look at for some time.
At the moment link for my Flash 8 image gallery will only show a mixed bunch of images rather than the sets. I need to learn a little PHP to find out how I do the equivalent of an ASP
< % Response.Write(Request.QueryString("xD")) %>
So if anyone has the answer, feel free to post a comment

Hope the syntax works, not sure if I need to do anything fancy…
<?php echo $_GET['xD']; ?>
On some PHP installations you get warnings if the index ‘xD’ is not defined. I have created the following function to echo a querystring variable.
<?php
function egv($name,$default=”){
echo htmlentities((isset($_GET[$name])) ? $_GET[$name] : $default);
}
?>
and you would call it like so:
<?php egv(’xD’); ?>

BTW, I’d watch out for those apparently smart quotes your blog system puts in… they should be just plain single quotes

Woo, new home!…
Following a catastrophe with my home hosted sites, i’ve moved back to remote hosting again. I had a disk failure, should be fine as I have backups right? Ah, yeh, i’d not gotten around to putting them onto removable media yet…R…
