The thing is, i still haven’t started learning for my exams, though they are nearing scary. I’ll have to start with the grammar questions, then come math… Math is the closest, ninth of june. The others are the end of june, but i just borrowed the grammar ones, that’s why it has priority. Tomorrow in the morning and in the early afternoon i’ll be working on my current job, a website for a textile merchant, which will be completed in the matter of days, then come the registration process, which takes a while in hungary—at least it took a while when i first registered valerauko.net at a local registrar. After that i’ll be reading, i still have about a hundred pages from the book i’m into nowadays, i want to finish it. Later i plan to start copying the grammar questions (that’d be enough for a first turn of learning), then complete the new version of the past vDesign, which is everything but up to date and good-looking. It was quite a while since i did that one, and it was only in a few days that i realised that the top banner at Athina’s blog is made using the same pattern. The very same. I’m proud (joking). By the way, the new version will be very trendy web2.0 style, but i tried to make it a bit original. And from now on, i’ll be paying close attention to my projects, so they’ll look good on my reference page. Yeah. Business is getting more speed.

Remember the great Iron Maiden song Hooks in you (from their No prayer for the dying album)? Though it’s indeed a significant piece of metal history in itself, i’m not going to write about it now (there’s a lot behind those links anyway). If not that, then what kind of hooks? I just realised today that using the same method for plugins as WordPress, hooks (or event triggers) to be exact, is not that much of a bad idea. It’s the fastest way i think. Even if i’m doing OOP, and they’re just partly that. I’ll have the core objects (database, posts, output, and one with everything else such as string modifiers, date and time, and basic authentication — and most importantly plugin management — since it’s so “huge”, i’m thinking about splitting it up or putting most of its stuff into modules or plugins) and the dynamically loaded plugin library. Here and there in the code, there’ll be trigger points, where i trigger a registered event (if it’s unregistered, a notice level error will occur), the plugin handler checks which plugins’ which functions are registered for that event, and executes them. It gave me a minute’s trouble to figure out how to pass variables, because they need to be passed by reference. But there are cases, when no parameter’s required, and then it’d raise an error, because parameters passed by reference cannot be left empty. I think. ‘Tis so fun, i finally get it on the way. This part i really enjoy.
