man do I hate programmers sometimes…<\/p>\n
Rick Ellis (I only know that it was him because he embedded his name at the bottom of every page of this blogging program) designed Pmachine… Rick Ellis… <\/p>\n
So anyway.. I tried putting embedded text links into my blog for the first time today…thought it was appropriate with the big parent trip and all. So now I’ve learned yet another thing pmachine CAN’T do. The stupid scripts make every URL reference in the text point to a URL WITHIN my pmachine folder… What that means is, when I tell it to have you go to www.gettycenter.edu<\/a> when you click on the word “getty” what it does instead is try to send you to www.andrewlorenzlong.com\/pmachine\/www.gettycenter.edu”<\/a> …AAARGGGG!!!!<\/p>\n I noticed a long time ago that adding photos directly to posts didn’t quite work… Man…this sort of programming retardation makes me want to use Friendster or Blogspot (humiliated sigh).<\/p>\n So, in short – sorry for all the misdirected links in the next post folks. I may try to fix it later, but sheesh I’ve got lots of other things to do besides fix Rick Ellis’ mistakes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" man do I hate programmers sometimes… Rick Ellis (I only know that it was him because he embedded his name at the bottom of every page of this blogging program) designed Pmachine… Rick Ellis… So anyway..
