<!-- Hey guys, what's for lunch? -->

<!-- Pizza. Chen's buying -->

<!-- I am not! -->

<!-- hehehe -->

I think it's in 2.x.x that the parent/child forum check is commented on by John, something about insanity is in there, and about a child being the parent of its parent :p

I've always liked the "Nutscrape" comment in functions.php of vB2. :)

The only problem with that is that I usually finish the pizza all by myself. :D So sure, bring it on!

I've always referred to NS as Nutscrape so I really didn't think about it when I typed that comment...

You should see some of the comments in vB3 though ;)

Not anything that would warrant a slander lawsuit I hope. :p

[MrNase]

U R talking about

// attempts to fix idiotic Nutscrape textarea width problems

*lol :)


Someone who found beta5 comments?

[Scott MacVicar]

Nutscrape

are evil browsers

Nutscrape
Oprah

are evil browsers
... and we are finding that Mozilla's new Midas (WYSIWYG) system is pretty evil too...

'Fixing the Kier situation' was in relation to a time when my firewall went bonkers and didn't seem to broadcast an IP address that we could read... or something like that. It was definitely firewall-related.

did you watch pulp fiction just before coding that part? it reminded me of this movie :) "the bonnie situation"

Not funny but:


//oops! it seems that some of the subscribed forums have been deleted, lets unset it

and

// ### ALL DONE! SPIT OUT THE HTML AND LET'S GET OUTA HERE... ###

There's a comment like that in vB3, relating to child posts having their parent deleted and therefore having a foster parent. :)

vB2 - forumdisplay.php:
// get number of sticky threads for the first page
// on the first page there will be the sticky threads PLUS the $perpage other normal threads
// not quite a bug, but a deliberate feature!

Can't forget that one. ;)

I liked this one:


In vB3 Beta5 /admincp/thread.php

echo "\n\n<!-- the pun is intended ;o) -->\n\n";

[N9ne]

functions.php in vB3b5:


exec_mail_queue();

$shutdownqueries = array(); // stop the queries from being reexecuted for whatever reason
// bye bye!


Bye bye :D

init.php in vB3b5:


// deal with magic_quotes nastiness in GPC data
if (get_magic_quotes_gpc())


Nasty :D

[assassingod]

I like the bye bye! one (its in vB2 functions as well)

[Zachery]

I like the bye bye! one (its in vB2 functions as well)
ive seen that one.....

[Chen]

vB2 also had "That's all folks" or something like that.

[DarkDelight.net]

Let's not forget vB3beta5's

// isn't that a lame thing to have to do? Works, but it's not really nice... :/

in admincp/user.php

[N9ne]

includes/function_image.php vB3.0.0b5


define('JPG', 2);
define('PNG', 3);
// For the time being define IMAGEGIF as false as hacked versions of GD that claim to support .gif creation don't seem to always work :/
define('IMAGEGIF', false);
if (function_exists('imagejpeg'))
{




function vbimage(&$image, $type = 2, $headers = 1)
{
/* If you are calling vbimage inside ob_start in order to capture the image
remember any headers still get sent to the browser. Mozilla is not happy with this */
// Try to create a gif from a gif.
if ($type == GIF AND IMAGEGIF)
{

[YCrowley]

nice random one here ;)


in newreply.php

// what was the line above supposed to do? I have changed it to the line below instead. - KD

another one :)

/// eeeewwww eregi_replace!

:D

[cirisme]

WYSIWYG-related files have some really funny comments :D

In functions_wysiwyg.php, b6:

// Mozilla actually puts in newline characters when text hits the edge of the edit box boundary
// (stupid child of Nutscrape), so rather than stripping them we must replace them with a space
And in vbulletin_global.js:

if (document.getElementById)
{
// yay, a decent brower!
DOMtype = "std";
}
else if (document.all)
{
// mmm... probably IE4... ugh
DOMtype = "ie";
}
else if (document.layers)
{
// eeew Netscape 4 - run away very fast!
DOMtype = "ns";
}
I love it :D
