Extract All Option Removed from Menu with Compressed (zipped) files

Windows XP has great native support for zipped files. When you right-click on a zipped file, it gives a number of great options including, Extract All. I recently installed and then uninstalled PowerArchiver and it was kind enough to remove Windows’ native support for zipped files. Grrr..

Here’s the fix for any other likewise affected:

In Windows Explorer go to Tools > Folder Options. Select the File Types tab. Click New. In the dialog type “zip” and click Advanced. Scroll down and select “Compressed (zipped) folder”. You’ll have to do this with each extension you want it to be able to unzip for you (e.g. .rar files, etc.)

Notice: Undefined index: SCRIPT_FILENAME wp-settings.php on line 38

WordPress 2.0 came out a little while ago. I’m installing it on a new site and ran into a problem on the install step.

The fix is to comment out line 38:

Line 38 in wp-settings.php is a “fix” for (quote):
// Fix for PHP as CGI hosts that set SCRIPT_FILENAME to something ending in php.cgi for all requests

Is this the case with your server?

Note: I’m running WordPress on a Windows 2003 server with MySQL on the same box. That might have been the source of the error.

Great Photo Display Script (JavaScript & CSS)

Great piece of javascript mixed with CSS enlarges a thumbnail in response to a click. It greys out the rest of the screen and shows the whole image. Hardly any programming required too!

Executing Stored Procedures within Stored Procedures (sprocs)

Is it possible to execute a stored procedured within another stored procedure? According to this thread, it appears so. I’ll have to try it out.

Within a stored procedure, you can execute a stored procedure via EXEC OwnerName.StoredProcedureName. Check SQL Server Books Online for details on executing stored procedures. If the stored procedure returns a result set, then you can:

CREATE TABLE #Temp…
INSERT INTO #Temp…
EXEC dbo.SP1 @parm1 = 10

DROP TABLE #Temp
