Hello all, I am working on a website statistics engine for a class. The idea being that you can simply embed a little code in your web page which will call the stats website on every page load and the stats website will then track your hits and such… nothing ground breaking. What I would like to do is be able to break down website hits...
I want to add an automatic embedding feature when a YouTube URL is used (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VID, where VID is the video's ID). For this, I need to check if the given URL, stored in the variable url, matches "/http:\/\/www\.youtube\.com\/watch\?v=([a-z0-9]+).*/i", then I need to strip out the VID to use it (e.g. put the VID i...

I have seen some websites that use äöå-characters in their slugs (they don't convert them to aoo). So what's the case? ...
I can't think of an example, but hopefully you get the idea. Encoded URLs have some characters replaced with those weird %20% type of codes (so I think none of the original characters/meaning is lost) whereas slugs have all the special characters stripped off and white spaces replaced usually with dashes or plus sign ('-' or '+'). ...
Although it is strongly recommended (W3C source, via Wikipedia) for web servers to support semicolon as a separator of URL query items (in addition to ampersand), it does not seem to be generally followed. For example, compare http://www.google.com/search?q=nemo&oe=utf-8 http://www.google.com/search?q=nemo;oe=utf...

I'm working on a simple CMS (based on Django, not that it matters) similar to Jekyll and Hyde, but dynamic instead of static. The idea is that the server has a copy of the repository, I can push stuff into that, and the CMS will automatically pick up the new content. Let's say that Markdown-formatted blog posts in my repository follow t...
