Create new etherpad using PHP and CURL
I'm trying to write a simple PHP script which automatically sets up new etherpads (see http://etherpad.com/). They don't have an API (yet) for creating new pads so I'm trying to figure if I can do things another way.

Site slows for individual users, but they can switch browsers?

Check PHP coding is correct
Hi, can someone please check the PHP coding is correct for this script. It needs a fresh pair of eyes to check. Since this script is slightly older since I last worked on it, I can't remember what small change I made to fix it... So what's wrong with it? The checkbox permissions aren't being saved at this moment - not sure why :( if (...

Below I have included some HTML/CSS. The CSS looks fine in FF, but it is wrong in IE8. In IE8, the Home button appears on the line below the Balance and Turn values.
