GeoCoding - errors
by Andrew Black 02 May '06

02 May '06

I notice that the geocoding of the following doesnt seem quite right. However I recall a discussion some time ago with Ivor that in there are sometimes errors with Google maps. http://london.openguides.org/index.cgi?Harcourt_Arms,_W1H_4HX Streetmap gives 51.519512 -0.164186 ) Open guides has 51.519003 -0.162582

Use of images
by Andrew Black 29 Apr '06

29 Apr '06

Is there any guidance as to how to include images on open guides pages. Matthew and I have collectively managed to make this page a bit naff (I added the GEO coordinates) because the image is to the left of the map. http://london.openguides.org/index.cgi?Pembury_Tavern

The google maps javascript is broken on IE: Line: 120 Error: expected ')' No map appears. By the way, here's a reminder that the new page edit form is broken on IE (zero width box). Google maps works fine on IE on nurflax.

London upgraded to 0.52
by Earle Martin 02 Apr '06

02 Apr '06

London should now be up-to-date and running OG 0.52, including Google Maps support. Something's a bit up with maps of category/locale entries, but per-page maps seem to work alright - I'll try and get this fixed ASAP. Please let me know if you find other bugs.

Visitors from Milton Keynes

I'm meeting two chaps from OGMK on Wednesday evening. They are curious about how we do things on OGL, and about the OpenGuides community in general, and the big picture. The plan is to rendezvous at the Head of Steam, 7pm, and go for a curry on Drummond Street. Anybody from the OGL crew is welcome to join us. Please respond off-list. My mobile number is 07881 858544. Ivor.

Fwd: OGL load - ACTION NEEDED
by Earle Martin 04 Mar '06

04 Mar '06

London's server is apparently being brought to its knees by the OpenGuides code. I'm taking it offline until we can come up with a solution. Unfortunately due to an illness in the family and various commitments I am not able to spend any time on the matter. I will however implement any suggestions/patches I'm sent as soon as possible. Thanks, Earle ----- Forwarded message from Paul Makepeace <paul(a)makepeace.net> ----- Date: Fri, 3 Mar 2006 08:42:02 +0000 From: Paul Makepeace <paul(a)makepeace.net> To: Ivor Williams <ivor.williams(a)lchclearnet.com> Cc: openguides(a)downlode.org, kake(a)earth.li Subject: OGL load - ACTION NEEDED Folks, I need the OGL devs to implement a bypass for index.cgi and supersearch.cgi and whatever else that will display a "max load exceeded; please try later" page when the load gets above a certain point. I suggest a threshold of 3.0. Here's the context, 6345 www-data 20 0 8800 8796 1620 R 9.5 0.9 0:00.42 index.cgi 6329 www-data 19 0 16592 16m 2520 R 9.2 1.6 0:00.95 index.cgi 6344 www-data 19 0 9188 9184 1668 R 9.2 0.9 0:00.41 index.cgi 6330 www-data 18 0 16372 15m 2520 R 8.9 1.6 0:00.82 index.cgi 6334 www-data 16 0 16436 16m 2512 R 8.2 1.6 0:00.74 index.cgi 6341 www-data 18 0 10532 10m 2244 R 8.2 1.0 0:00.46 index.cgi 6336 www-data 15 0 14032 13m 2488 R 7.4 1.4 0:00.61 index.cgi 6338 www-data 17 0 12416 12m 2388 R 7.4 1.2 0:00.57 index.cgi 6342 www-data 15 0 10548 10m 2264 S 7.4 1.0 0:00.43 index.cgi 6348 www-data 19 0 5484 5480 1428 R 6.1 0.5 0:00.23 index.cgi 6351 www-data 20 0 4612 4608 1420 R 4.7 0.4 0:00.18 index.cgi 6180 root 18 0 1176 1176 844 R 3.2 0.1 0:01.79 top 3393 root 9 0 35864 30m 8288 S 2.4 3.0 0:44.35 spamd 6353 www-data 18 0 3104 3100 1368 R 2.4 0.3 0:00.09 index.cgi Everyone now and then Pg gets wedged and the load flies up. When this happens OGL needs to back off. I would really appreciate this happening ASAP. By ASAP I really do mean the literal "as soon as possible". Please keep me updated!

New page edit broken for IE
by IvorW 30 Jan '06

30 Jan '06

I have a zero width textarea to type into for content, categories and locales. See attached screenshot. Firefox is OK, as that's what I use at home. Editing pages with content already present is OK, just new pages that are a problem.

Re: [OGL] List of categories in XML or similar

As you say there are problems. I have spotted two forms - <a> and similar tags in the data - & in the category name (eg Hall & Woodhouse) that should be escaped. Andrew
