Here's some food for thought.
I just integrated a coupons system in the new site and bumped into a bit of complexity challenge. I wanted to create something called like smart coupons that could set discount value dynamically based on buyer account age, buyer history, product age (discount for the first week and such), year period (holiday discounts) and so on. The complexity is not the problem ... it's just that I'm lazy and always looking for shortcuts.

This is a short one pointing you to an excellent jQuery script. I use textareas a lot in my Control Panels and lately I got so annoyed with the lack of TAB character insertion support that I went out to find a fix.
I'm not a JS guru (even if I'm not like a total dumb-ass) so I had to look for something already made instead of writing my own.
Luckily I came accross this excelent tabs in textarea jQuery script. It works for me hence it rules. Enjoy it!
As I've said before, I got a long list of tools and scripts to share sell and I decided to move the whole selling thing to a brand new domain and a custom selling platform I've almost finished writing.
The site looks horrifying :) (a placeholder is up for now) but it works (locally). I still need to integrate the affiliate system.
For those who expect an exact launch date and time like 'mavens' do ... I'd say: SOMEWHERE IN JANUARY :) I'm not a BS-maven [BS = best selling not Bull SHIT] so don't expect me to behave like one.
I'm leaving in a few days in the CHRISTMAS vacation and I'll be back in the first week of January. When I return at the 'office' I'll fine tune the site and launch it.
Wondering why I've written this post? Me too! Not sure why ... to build expectation maybe and to entertain you with the stupid domain name?
Anyways, the great thing is I'll do it professionally. Fully documented scripts with manuals and stuff to get you up and running on your way to more moolah in no time.
NOW LAUGH AT THE DOMAIN NAME: MOOLAHSCRIPTS.COM
I updated elWpAPI and did a few things. Two fixes and the timeout increased to 15 seconds. I removed a htmlentities() that apparently was causing trouble to funky character languages and I added a new rFC plugin called BLOGROLLER. This is the big thing actually. Blogroller will expose several functions that can be called with 5ub.RFC. They will allow you to easily manage your blogroll.
