Out of the Gene Pool changed to Single and Looking

James Bigler — Mon, 06 Aug 2007 19:31:05 -0000

As of Aug. 1st, 2007 Out of the Gene Pool by Matt Janz was changed to Single and Looking.

http://gocomics.typepad.com/laughtracks/2007/07/out-of-the-gene.html

It might be nice to simply change the old module to simply point to the new url:

http://www.comics.com/wash/singlelooking/

This would keep scripts or other preference settings functional until they can change over to a new module.

I have phpgrabcomics at my desktop, and
phpgrabcomics only gets the same comics (this has
happened this weekend.) I have this command set as my
desktop,

comic_array%5B%5D=calvinandhobbes&comic_array%
5B%5D=piranha&comic_array%5B%
5D=random&bg_color=%
23FFFFFF&button=preview+desktop .

The Calvin and Hobbes and Piranha Club comics hasn't
changed since friday. Is this an bug? or an missing
feature?

Getting errors when using pygrabcomics in command line mode.

Emanuel Borges — Mon, 21 Jun 2004 21:05:40 -0000

I'm getting an error when using Pygrabcomics to either
list or retrieve a comic when using the program in
command line mode under Windows XP.

Here is the error:

>pygrabcomics.py -c dilbert -V0

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "Downloaded\pygrabcomics-0.2\Programmi\Pyth

id = str(comic.attributes.getNamedItem
("id").nodeValue).strip()
AttributeError: NamedNodeMap instance has no
attribute 'getNamedItem'

I'm using Python 2.2.3. and have curl installed and
working.

Please let me know what I'm doing wrong,

Comics become link after first view

Anonymous — Mon, 27 Oct 2003 02:15:06 -0000

When using phpGrabComics, I have noticed an odd bug.

I was using the program fine for quite some time, but it
has since begun functioning....oddly.

When I first view a page of comics, it loads fine. The
comics I selected come up and it's great. However, once
I refresh the page, I no longer get the image from the
comic. Instead a text link to the site hosting the comic is
placed there.

My suspicion is this. When the comic is new, it shows up
once, and then never again. Perhaps when the comic is
archived it is suddenly flagged and something odd
happens. That, however, is just an idea - i have no
actually idea what is going on. I haven't had time to look
into the code to figure out what set of circumstances
return this, but i figured it was not the way it should be
happening anyway.

Later.

include file exposure

Anonymous — Tue, 27 Aug 2002 15:18:49 -0000

the .INC files are a bad idea. You should instead
use .php for the config files.

If the web server is not set up probably, a hacker can
view your ftp user simply by view the comic_config.inc
file.

For the next version, I suggest you change it to .php so
hackers can not view the config files.

Cannot find includes

Anonymous — Mon, 21 Jan 2002 23:47:41 -0000

I tried to install it on my own Apache web server with
PHP.

The execution stops at line 4.

$dir="../";
include ($dir.'global.inc');
There is no global.inc at ../.
There is no global.inc with the distribution.
What is this global.inc?
I have given up on this one.
