Operation Back-To-Square-One-
Objective:
To revert back to the old way of querying the database for blogs.
Reasons:
(1) Generation of too many files makes maintanance hard and time consuming. For example, I used around 10 minutes to get rid of the 470 files generated by my blog.<\/p>\n
(2) Duplication of code. The overall template is the same throughout. With the generation of individual pages, I have used up quite a substantial amount of available server space. If my template file is 5kb, after page generation, each page will be around 10kb, given the fact that I crap alot for most entries. With database query, I only need a file, and the rest are just my way of retrieving things.<\/p>\n
(3) Easy Grouping. With querying instead of generating, I don't need to regenerate the pages when I make changes to the template or entries. I just need to refresh my page. It's a better and faster way to do things.<\/p>\n
Well, at least I get the parsing of keywords correct. That's my aim in the first place. Now, I think I can start on the long-lost Yahoo! News section…<\/p>\n
An update for today. Went running just now! Quite shiok. The temperature's cooling. A great night for a run. I had wanted to go running a few days back, but due to unforseen MSN chats and natural happenings (ie, rain), I have been forced to stay put. Ahh!!!<\/p>\n
