Finally! A really good spamkiller for WordPress. I used Kittens Spaminator a while, but it started to let messages through. Then I switched to a spamassasin brindge for WordPress, but it was moderating valid comments, and sifting through the moderation queue was too much work. Now I’ve installed SpamKarma 2 which seems to be working excellent. Stupid spammers can eat my shorts cause I got karma! 😉
So I did my first adventure into the world of AJAX today. Nothing fancy, just a lookup on the server for the name of the area based on the zip code. DWR made it all a breeze. I spent a little time figuring out the config, but the amount of config and amount of code I had to do was extremely small. And thanks to the Spring integration it initialised and served up one of my simpler DAOs just like that, no changes to it.
I’m not really that experienced in JavaScript, so this would probably take me ages without DWR. Excellent lib!
Ever needed to present a bunch of data in tables and started to get sick of using logic:iterate ? Then you need to try the <display:*> library. Just send in your array of data and it displays everything in nice tables.
If you need to customize the look & feel you just write your own decorator. Cool stuff! 🙂
