Re: Embed PHP in Joomla's HTML?

I wonder if my atachement came through... I wrote a
1.5 Native plugin to do this...
htt

n/task,cat_view/gid,23/Itemid,39/

It restricts it to articles authored by Admins or
Super Admins ONLY...

Thanks so much for writing this and making it available for
Joomla  
1.5, Anthony Ferrara!

I downloaded, installed it in Joomla 1.5rc1 and it works!

I tested it as  with some PHP code and also including a
.php  
file as  and worked with no problems. Good job!
I also like the idea of having  for inserting code and
  
for file includes.

Sorry Norm, I only had Linux LiveCDs, they were put together
by Brian
Teeman at UKLinux. Oh, and one more thing - usually the
linux-based
LiveCDs are based on the Knoppix distribution, which comes
with a
boot-time option to load everything into RAM:

> knoppix toram

And that tells the kernel to initialize a RAM disk for the
operating
system, file system, the whole shebang. Takes ages to load,
but once
you're up, the machine absolutely screams.

At LinuxWorld in SFO (the last Mambo expo for me, the one we
learned
we were picking up our toys and rebranding to Joomla) the
LUG there
had us three machines with 2GB of RAM each, and everything
was loaded
on RAM disk.

People were so impressed with how insanely fast our software
was. *giggle*

Meeting, meeting... What meeting?

Ok, so I won't steal Gary's thunder by announcing it here,
I'll send

My wife is from Switzerland, so she can resort to cheese or
yodeling.
Pretty effective.
