I use a cool piece of C++ software to handle a lot of blogs and publish directly into the databases. I published a bunch of future posts but noticed they won't publish and, when time comes to go live, they just turn Missed Schedule. This really pissed me off. Took a look at the Wordpress code and noticed future posts get assigned a cronjob [ wp_schedule_single_event($unix_time_stamp, 'publish_future_post', array($post_ID)) ] which is downright stupid!

It works ... not MSIE but fk it, I'm not that good yet (to make shit work in IE) ... and it will be easier for you to copy-paste in non-Opera browsers. You will notice two links above each CODE block and clicking each will switch between hightlighted view and raw-text view. Hope it helps you to snatch my code easier.

There are times when your code has to add/remove columns dynamically to/from a mysql table. And there are many other programming situations where you need to check if the field exists in a mysql table column list or just get the column set for further use.
