Automatic update checker

Ok, this is gonna take a tad of work, but it'll be worth it.

We need to create a db table and admin page for uploading plugins/skins and entering them into the db with a "current version" number. I can code the logic required into our current plugins, it won't actually do anything until I code the update plugin but it means that they'll be "update enabled". We also need to add a file to all of our skins (so that the update checker can "grab" their version and check them as well).

I'm thinking of keeping this plugin as a current members only function.

I'll hammer on with the toolbar coding first though, as that's needed before the code plugin can be released.

Basin skin

First off, great skin Danny :D, validates as strict and the css (although it has a shedload of warnings) validates as well :D

You did have a tad of an error with your black/white code, but if you change it to this it works :-

<div class="bPost<?php if ( isset( $black) and $black ){echo 'Black'; $black = false; } else { $black = true; } ?>" xml:lang="<?php $Item->lang() ?>">

(Damn, that code plugin rocks ;))

One other thing to note, until I convert the comment form to our random fields version it won't work here, so you'll need to use the astonishme one to make comments (not finished nebula skin so comments wont work from their either)

We also need to hack in the custom css/title stuff and do the info icons for this skin (lol, and I bet you thought it was finished huh Danny :p), but that's all custom to here and wont affect the released skin

Then we just need one of you to write a fluffy article to go with the skin

Am toolbar

I'll (hopefully) have this coded up and working on the code plugin by the end of the day, it should be the last of the work required for it. It's mainly a matter of doing all the js logic, but I can steal some of that from the quicktags plugin.

Anyway, I hope you two lazy arses enjoyed sleeping whilst poor old me worked my fingers to the bone :|

Have fun
