Hope nobody noticed, but I just did a quick site update to V1.5.18 of Joomla. This resolves an XSS flaw in the core V.1.5.17 release.
Cheers,
dave

UPDATE #3 01-May 20:00 UTC: I happened to notice that the guestbook would not open, do not know if it was something to do with the core upgrade earlier, or the updates i did to PHP/FastCGI a couple of weeks ago. Anyway, fixed now and i have update to the new version of the Phoca Guestbook, and also took the opportunity to update Phoca Download and some of its associated components.
----------
UPDATE #2: 01-May 14:55 UTC: The site has now been updated to the latest Joomla Core, V1.5.17, i have also migrated the modifications to the original template across to the latest versions, and all 'appears' to be fine. If you see any issues give me a shout.
----------
UPDATE #1: 27-Apr 12:43 UTC: Update to the site has been delayed probably till 28th due to a bug being identified in Joomla 1.5.16. Another update [V1.5.17] is scheduled to be released today [27th] sometime to correct this latest bug.
----------
I am planning on taking the site offline for a short duration to perform an update to the latest version of joomla (1.5.16).
Haven't decided a time yet, so if at any time it appears dead, then you know what is happening, All going well, should only take 5 minutes.
Cheers,
dave

This problem has been fixed as of 15th April 20:00 (uk time); I turned off SEF (Search Engine Friendly) url's in joomla global configuration....Don't know what has changed that required this setting to be turned off, all that has happened is FastCGI and PHP 5.2.13 has been installed.
Anyway Fixed....Yah!
The site is currently experiencing issues relating to site navigation and formatting of pages and this is being investigated.........
The site will be up and down for a while, as the the problems are looked into.
UPDATE: 15th April; I have now managed to get the server to serve pages again, however the navigation and formatting issues persist.
Hopefully have this back up and working soon, but things are taking longer than expected, who knows!
Sorry!

I have recently added the CodeCitation plug-in to the website.
CodeCitation is a source code formatter for displaying neatly formatted code on the website pages. CodeCitation was written by these guys.
CodeCitation also provides, unformatted view, copy to clipboard and printing capability to make it easy to extract the code from the pages for your own use. just hover your mouse over the code block and the helper icons will appear on the page.
An example of this is shown below;
Private Sub ButtonSQLTestConnection_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ButtonSQLTestConnection.Click
Dim conString As New SqlConnectionStringBuilder
conString.DataSource = TextSQLServer.Text
If TextSQLInstance.Text.Length > 0 Then
conString.DataSource = conString.DataSource & "\" & TextSQLInstance.Text
End If
conString.InitialCatalog = TextSQLDatabase.Text
conString.IntegratedSecurity = False
conString.UserID = TextSQLUsername.Text
conString.Password = TextSQLPassword.Text
conString.ConnectTimeout = CInt(TextSQLConnectionTimeout.Text)
Dim con As New SqlConnection(conString.ConnectionString)
Debug.WriteLine(conString.ConnectionString)
Try
con.Open()
MsgBox("Success!", MsgBoxStyle.Information, "Connection Test")
Catch ex As Exception
MsgBox(ex.Message)
End Try
End Sub
Enjoy,
Dave

The site experienced a failure resulting in a couple of days outage at the weekend (extended due to me being away and not knowing it had gone off-line).
The cuplrit for the outage was the PHP engine v5.2.11, which was also a cause of the outage in December.
If have since upgraded to a newer version, and this came back online without issue (a re-install of the original version [v5.2.11] didn't work, and the latest 5.3.x version didn't work either, so currently the 5.2.12 is in use)
Sorry for loss of service.
Cheers,
dave
