15:05 kados I leave tomorrow for New Orleans
15:05 thd s/ABA/ALA/
15:05 kados and I get back on the 28th
15:05 I have no idea when it starts ;-)
15:05 or ends ;-)
15:06 thd kados: I guess then you do not have a few minutes now?
15:07 kados probably not :-)
15:07 unless it can't wait until I arrive in New Orleans
15:08 thd kados: so I will try pinging you in the evening tomorrow?
15:09 kados: what counts as evening?
15:09 kados I'm not sure ...
15:09 I think there's a time change involved
15:09 they are GMT -5
15:09 thd kados: New Orleans is definitely in the same time Zone is it not?
15:10 kados so it's one hour behind you and I
15:10 so evening should be any time after 7:00pm your time
15:10 thd: you can call me to inquire :-)
15:11 if I'm not on IRC I may be passed out in the hotel :-)
15:11 thd kados: perhaps you could answer something simple but least important just now
15:12 kados sure
15:12 thd kados: is it possible to run an X windows session inside screen or have you ever tried?
15:12 kados it's not possible unfortunately
15:12 I have attempted it :-)
15:13 thd :(
15:13 kados but ...
15:13 it would be ideal :-)
15:13 there may be one way
15:13 thd everything should run inside screen
15:13 kados to acomplish it
15:14 thd kados: any clues about the possible way
15:14 ?
15:14 kados the one way would involve ssh tunneling the X windows session
15:15 thd: http://www.kuro5hin.org/story/[…]4/3/9/16838/14935
15:16 thd: read through the 'first thing I thought of' thread on that page

02:02 ToinS hi all
02:09 btoumi hi all
02:13 ToinS hello btoumi
02:16 btoumi hi toins:
03:00 :chris are u around?
03:06 chris yep
03:06 just playing with something
03:06 paul hello chris & btoumi
03:06 chris http://opac.bigballofwax.co.nz[…]koha/ajax_opac.pl
03:06 paul playing with Koha, WoW or something else, not computer related
03:06 chris try typing art in the box
03:06 paul ah, ok ;-)
03:08 Comete hi
03:10 chris: nice
03:11 chris its just a proof on concept at the moment, but i think it could be useful in some places
03:14 probably not the opac, or only as an option in the opac, its not useful for browsers that dont support javascript well etc
03:14 but it could be handy in the librarian interface
03:15 at the moment its searching on every key press, but it could search only when the search button is pushed say, but still fetch into the page .. so could be a good way to speed up circulation
03:16 very cold in wellington tonight, so im glad to have the laptop warming up my knees :)
03:20 paul chris: kados already did something about this.
03:20 labs.liblime.com iirc
03:20 chris yep this is slightly different i think
03:21 its using CGI::Ajax
03:21 138 lines of perl
03:21 i didnt write a single line of javascript
03:21 btoumi hi paul sorry i'm busy
03:22 i was busy
03:25 chris paul: so CGI::Ajax builds all the javascript for me... thats what I like about it
03:25 and i can change the backend
03:26 and the behaviour without having to edit a template or anything
03:27 btoumi kool
03:29 u dont reload the page
03:29 is it?
03:32 chris yeah
03:36 ToinS CGI::Ajax looks very nice !
03:37 paul that's why I love Perl : if you need something, 99.999% chances someone needed it, and submitted it to cpan !
03:37 chris exactly
03:44 btoumi kool i'm interesting about this because more usefull
03:45 i'm agree with u paul
03:45 i can't believe that i say that but perl is fantastic ;=)
03:45 paul lol
03:46 btoumi really:=)
04:11 :chris is it hard to use CGI::Ajax
04:11 ?
04:11 chris nope
04:12 not hard at all
04:12 my $cgi = new CGI;
04:12        my $pjx = new CGI::Ajax('exported_func' => \&perl_func );
04:12        return ($pjx->build_html( $cgi, \&Show_HTML));
04:12 and then you just write perl_func and Show_HTML
04:13 btoumi ok
04:13 chris sub perl_func {
04:13    my $input= shift;
04:13 do something with $input;
04:13 return ($output);
04:13 }
04:13 btoumi ok
04:14 i will learn more about this package
04:14 chris it does all the hard work for you
04:15 btoumi ty
04:16 now i work on moremeber.tmpl to show only category_type information
04:16 chris :)
04:40 btoumi i think u have different display (moremember.tmpl) in function of category_type
04:41 i try to do it but not ready today because i'm in formation today;=(
05:09 :paul or :chris are u around?
05:09 a little question
05:10 paul btoumi: throw your question
05:13 btoumi just want to now if it's possible for  firstname field in borrowers
05:13 to be yes for null
05:14 paul mmm, I would vote YES
05:14 btoumi ok because when u are institution u don't use firstname
05:14 i will modify updatedatabase
05:14 and commit
05:16 ok bye for all
05:16 paul bye
05:16 btoumi :nick btoumi_away
