Loïc, thanks for the input, I’ll have to look into that for myself as some point.

To followup anon’s comment, the set up could be something like this, running as a daemon: tail -f /var/log/apache/error_log | grep pattern | mail error@example.org

You can easily add a script between grep and mail to check for dupes.

There’s probably some kind of package available with that functionality and more.

My bad David, I read your post and it got me all excited. Didn’t mean to steal your thunder, and really, I only get about 10 readers a day to my actual posts. All my other traffic is to my plugins so you can get away with posting with out anyone noticing dup content.

Anon, not sure what part of it is a bad idea, of course this is a bit of a proof-of-concept and there would need to be some dup checking, maybe a database or something. Not sure how you would set up grep the log files but if it is not instant then it will defeat the purpose. Imagine you post an article and you “think” you linked an image correctly. If you don’t have an instant notice process set up, you can go a whole day before you realize that image was never linked.

this seems like a bad idea to me. why not just grep your logfiles for errors and correct instead of waiting for pages to be viewed?

Benjamin, you bastard! :)

I wrote a jQuery version I was going to post tomorrow morning! Way to ruin it!

I’ll post it some time in the future — please don’t be offended. Thanks for reading!

I am using http://blog.igeek.info/wp-plug.....x-hiliter/ so the syntax would be what language you are posting about [css] for css, [js] for javascript and so on. I am just realizing I don’t have that info anywhere for comments, need to fix that.

thanks.

Yup good catch. Looks like it wont bubble up. That’s a shame.

Btw whats the syntax for code? source tag?

Thanks for following up on that, I was trying a few combination but no luck myself. When I do:

PLAIN TEXT

JavaScript:

$('*').error(function(evt){
console.log( evt );
});

Part of the object that gets returned is "bubbles:false," wonder if that is something in the browser or a jQuery thing. I will need to look in to it.

Looks like it's not possible... Bummer

Here's the code I tried:

$(document).error(function(evt){
if ($(evt.target).is('img')){
$.post('brokenImages.php',{'image':this.src,'page':location.href}, function(data){
$('pre').append(data);
});
}
});

(Yup thats a good overview page)

Paul, Just found this post http://icant.co.uk/sandbox/eventdelegation/ so I think I understand now what you are getting at. I don't know the answer, but I think it would be worth a look at.

edit: this looks to be a good read also: http://www.danwebb.net/2008/2/.....-in-jquery

Paul, I posted a link to an example, there should be three bad images. I grabbed a few images from flickr to show a longer load time.

Can you explain what you mean by "event delegation", are you saying do something like cache all the image errors and then send one request?
