Dancer and TT config

Quick note to self (and anyone that might be listening): When setting config options different than start and end tag for TT such as PRE_PROCESS in Dancer, you must make them all caps.

e.g. config.yaml: 
# template engine
template: "template_toolkit"
engines:
   template_toolkit:
     encoding:  'utf8'
     start_tag: '[%'
     end_tag:   '%]'
     PRE_PROCESS: 'config.tt'

2 ways to get SQLite to put dates into columns

2 ways to get SQLite to put dates into a column. insert into mytable values( null, datetime('now') ); insert into mytable values( null, strftime('%s', 'now')); The first one inserts a row somewhat like this: 1|2009-03-10 18:47:46 The second inserts an unix timestamp: 2|1236711411 It might be best to use that unix timestamp with an integer column type for dates since SQLite doesn't support a datetime one. It makes comparisons and ordering much easier: select * from dt where lu > strftime('%s', '2009-03-10'); Output of: id|lu 6|1236643200 2|1236711411 3|1236711516 4|1236711518 5|1236711519 But the formatting is pretty ugly. :-/ Hey what about formatting it within the select with the SQLite datetime function: select id, datetime(lu, 'unixepoch') lu from dt order by lu; id|lu 6|2009-03-10 00:00:00 2|2009-03-10 18:56:51 3|2009-03-10 18:58:36 4|2009-03-10 18:58:38 5|2009-03-10 18:58:39 Better but having to add that to each select

BootstrapX clickover

Birth The last few weeks, i've been pushing Bootstrap in various directions. Most of the time, its being hacking around Popovers. Our current design uses Popovers with forms. It provides a very nice balance between in page action and more subtle interruption to viewing the page than a modal. Over the last few weeks, I've found a few quirks with using Popover's trigger action of 'focus'. This works fine with forms but on Chrome and Safari 'focus' events are supported incompletely . In addition to that varied support we have a few other needs that inspired a new Bootstrap extension. BootstrapX - Clickover . Our requirements are: Click button/link/icon to toggle display of popover content Option to click 'away' from popover to close Ability to have 'popover' autoclose after some amount of time Option to have element inside of popover hide it I suspect, in the future, it will need to only auto close when user's mouse
