  • Posting links to Facebook from PHP – not from localhost

    While working on an update for one of my SilverStripe modules, I came upon a problem which held me back for some time, changing configurations and doing all kinds of tests.

    The thing is – Facebook engine verifies the link you’re trying to post, so the post from localhost fails with “Unknown error”. You need to give Facebook a link it can scrape and extract meta data from it, so for testing purposes use an existing link, and when your test is online try how the regular link would work.

  • One Div – Pure CSS3 icons

    I ran into this website for the first time today and I liked the project.

    The aim of One div is to create a library of single element logos/icons. All the icons presented there are realized in pure css with only one html <div> element.

    This is great as alternative for svg/images, as all the icons created this way are 100% responsive. Some icons also have animation effects which would be impossible with other formats.

  • Transmit audio over TeamViewer

    Update:

    With new version of TeamViewer (8.0) audio is transmited by enabling “Computer sounds” from Audio/Video menu. If you need advanced options you can check other options in Audio/Video menu.

    With new TeamViewer V 7.0 we’ve got the possibility to transfer audio from, or to, remote PC. The sound quality is not best (depends on the connection, but it’s also meant for voice, not high quality audio).

    The trick is using the new “Voive over IP” option, that can be found under “Audio/Video” menu in TeamViewer’s toolbar. After activating this option, a new widget will appear in the panel. Under the volume controls there is “Transmit my audio now” control, which will start the audio transmission from the PC it’s activated on.

    Simple as that, but, as it’s a new option it hasn’t been discovered by many.

  • COM port occupied by unknown application

    I’m working on an application that uses COM port for communication with external controller. When I reboot the PC with communication cable connected, Windows opens the port, without any application running, so I can’t access it any more. I was banging my head, searching and asking around for an answer, but, until recently, I couldn’t find where’s the problem.
    Finally I managed to find where the problem was:
    Windows identifies devices with constant data stream connected to serial port as serial mouse (in this case it was Microsoft Serial Ballpoint), and tries to install them, taking over the control over the port without any process using it. The solution is to wait for Windows to install the device (check Device Manager under Mouses And Other Pointing Devices) and then DISABLING it. If you uninstall the device it will be installed again, and the problem is back.
    I hope others will find this solution useful.

  • Go back to Yahoo! Mail classic

    Since the Yahoo! Mail switched to the all new beta, I’m having trouble with Reply and Compose buttons not working. It only happens when I’m on my job, behind a proxy server, but still bugs me that I’m not able to send any email.

    For some time now, there is no option to switch back to classic mail from the new beta, so I needed to find a new solution.

    After a lot of searching I’ve found this links that point to various versions of Yahoo! Mail, and it helped me getting my mail to work. Here they are, hope they will help you if you’re having the same trouble.

  • Hello world!

    Hi.

    Well, I always wanted to start a blog, but when I had the time to write one, I had nothing to write about, and when I had something to write, I was mainly figuring out some hard stuff for my projects, so I had no time to write about it.

    Now, I’ve decided to start writing here about the stuff I encounter and (mainly) solve while programming and working on various stuff that I do. I’ll also write about some casual stuff that follows what I’m doing besides my professional carrier.

    So, here I go, it’s time to start blogging.
