The idea that is forming in my head is a very interesting one. Very interesting indeed.

Since comments on b2 weblogs have the same type of cookies storing name, e-mail and website, why not use just one for every b2 blog there is? Surely you do not give a different name, e-mail or website address for every comment that you give : P

Interesting prospect. But whether it can be done is still beyond me. I don't do cookies, and don't dream cookies either, but surely it can.

Does this remind us all of .NET? Not really .NET but it could potentially save the end user from a whole lot of typing, could it not.

It's a fine idea, but cookies can only be read by the domain that issues them. The server at www.mark.ac cannot read cookies dropped by www.cafelog.com.

And has anyone considered that by allowing .NET access to all of the cookies on your machine, it allows the boys at Microsoft to see exactly what your browsing habits are, and then tailor advertising to match?

Interesting but impracticable by the reason Mark pointed out and because I might be Ricardo - [email protected] - http://lomoblog.com here but be foo7 - [email protected] - http://foo7.foo.com.
Anyway, my sugestion is that you concentrate your efforts on something similar, a cafelog universal user ID. That would be nice!

That would require an 'universal' CaféLog server, that would never be down. Someone pay me ? : )

I don't know if this is easily possible but I thought that the cookies might be a way of doing a "who's online box". Probably it won't show to everyone else except me my cookie Cafeloguser value, but if it can be read, it can be written in a file and that can be displayed to everyone, no?

i know it can't be done, but i've heard of a great hack somewhere that makes it work on ie6. someone from adc told me.

I'm just scared of 'hacks' that make things work on IE, especially on the version 6. If you haven't noticed by now, I'm trying to stick to the standards as much as possible (yet I put <br> in b2.php by default, doh).
If IE6 enables the a script to read cookies from another domain, it is not a hack: it is a HUGE security breach. You don't want DoubleClick and Amazon to read your other cookies...

Ricardo, the who's online feature wasn't planned, but that's an idea.

Woman can be emancipated only when she can take part on a large social scale in production and is engaged in domestic work only to an insignificant degree. And this has become possible only in the big industry of modern times, which not only admits of female labour on a grand scale but even formally demands it. by free online poker

What is b2 ?
A classy news/weblog tool (aka logware).

How does it work ?
You type something and hit "blog this" and in the next second it's on your page(s). You can write extended entries, or even entries that span multiple pages. You can also use BloggerAPI clients to post to your b2 weblog.
What's original in b2 ? Pages are generated dynamically from the MySQL database, so no clumsy 'rebuilding' is involved. It also means faster search/display capabilities, and the ability to serve your news in different 'templates' without any hassle.

Requirements ?
A server that can run PHP4, and a MySQL database (you can install b2 in an already existing database, and you can put several b2's in one database).

Where can I download it ?
b2 0.6 is the latest public release.
You can also visit the CVS server for the latest code, at your own risks.
See the ReadMe file for requirements and installation instructions.

Contact info ?
E-mail: m@tidakada.com
Forums: over there. :)
