I use a big font on a black background because it doesn't strain my
eyes as much. I started out with Monaco 9pt (or bitstream vera sans
mono 9pt on linux) on white. Slowly though I kept getting more
frequent headaches. Now I use black with big fonts and I'm fine. I
have really good vision and all that, but just hours of coding will
get to me.

As a side bonus, using a bigger font also helps me adhere to wrapping
at the 80 character margin too.

Anyone have any ideas on this at all?

Subject: [php] cookie encoding/decoding

I have a situation where a cookie is being set elsewhere on a site by
ASP.NET, and I want to read it in my PHP. However, when getting a cookie in
PHP, it does an automatic urldecode (or some kind of decoding). Since the
cookie is entered in its pure form, with no encoding, on the ASP.NET side,
PHP is actually converting/decoding correct characters that don't need
decoding. So, for example a plus sign would become a blank space. This, of
course, means I'm getting incorrect info from the cookie.

Is there a way to turn off this PHP "feature"? Perhaps a flag in the .ini
file?

-Jeff
