I just had an email which was supposedly from HSBC bank, it had the usual blurb about ‘security’ and ‘an attempt has been made to access your account’ etc.

Want a neat little trick to redirect a page out of an iFrame when your session in the frame has finished?

Drop this into the header of your final page:

<script type=”text/javascript” language=”javascript”>
if (top.frames.length>0)
setTimeout(“top.location = window.location;”,100);
</script>

It seems that the upgrade to WordPress 3 is causing many people headaches. I’ve not noticed too much so far, however I did swap the theme over to see what the new Twenty Ten theme looked like and when I changed back all my widgets in the side bar had gone. So beware of that one.

I really don’t understand the UK. BT have announced that they are preparing to roll out a multi million pound scheme for installing more cable broadband in the UK. This will see a good proportion of us move from copper wires to fiber optic for our broadband, telephone and media content. This is great news and I applaud it, I’d snap their hand, no arm off if I could get it at home. And this is where I don’t understand the UK. I live in a street that is about 5 years old, 5 years ago it was development land, now it’s a new housing estate. The roads were constructed and gas, water, electricity, phone and drainage were installed… er… but no cable. Around me are thousands of new homes being constructed, Telford is exploding with new housing, and roads… er… but no cable.

I heard on the radio this morning that the UK is about 3 months away from recession. I can well believe it, house prices are falling so nobody can sell therefore nobody can buy, food and fuel prices are rising fast and wages aren’t increasing to cover the extra outlay. Some people would say the recession is already here.
