Just a quick post from my iPod Touch. I was curious how well the WordPress app works.  I am doing some testing while I’m fixing an 500 internal server error.  I was getting a 500 error that wasn’t related to post_parent being signed, or php 4 being the default php version on my server.

My problem was related to my host (MyDomain windows hosting) not defaulting to the dir containing the first php file that is being executed.  For some reason I have to fully qualify the includes used in index.php and xmlrpc.php. I need to research further, but for now putting in the full path fixes my problems.

I have been using a tool for a couple of years now that makes it a breeze to create simple or complicated scripts using vbscript or jscript.  It has tons of samples, a debugger, and comes with an HTA (HTML Application) editor.    A couple of years ago I thought I was done with using vbscript, but VBSEdit makes it so easy to build powerful scripts.

I just recently created a comparison tool to compare active users in Active Directory with users in our personnel system.  The results of the comparison is an html report that is e-mailed to a group of users.  I was able to create the comparison utility in a few hours using VBS Edit.  I don’t know any other environment which would have let me accomplish the same thing in the same amount of time.
