    As you can see, Jimmy's Sandbox has seen a bit of a face lift. This represents several weeks of planning and implementation. Now that the new design is in place, you should start seeing more frequent post regarding Drupal, PHP, Web Services and many other topics related to web development.

Your Thoughts

    Do you have any thoughts on the new design? Good or bad I want to hear it. How about something you would like to see a new post about? Whatever it is, leave your thoughts in the comment section below.

    This is in response to My Fridge by Dries Buytaert.

    I have been using Google's Page Speed tool to help improve the the load times of this site. In doing so, I discovered that I never configured any of the performance settings provided by Drupal. I also discovered that GoDaddy does not use mod_gzip or mod_deflate to compress the documents being requested.

    I was recently tasked with hiring a web developer for a redesign of workxpress.com. I was surprised at the number of poor quality responses I received. The original post can be found at http://drupal.org/node/602292. Looking back, I should have included more details in my post, but that still doesn't excuse the poor quality of some of these emails.

    You have learned about all of the functions. You understand the data formats. What could possibly be left before mastering the WorkXpress API? Display formats is the answer.

    On my site I use the External links to add the image next to any external links. I also use the GeSHi Filter module for syntax highlighting. These two modules together were causing some undesirable effects.

    Now that you know how to use the WorkXpress API, it's time to learn about some more advanced concepts. Data formats define how Field values are stored within WorkXpress. These values can be useful for finding out more information about certain values, and will need to be used when storing data into certain Field Types.

    Earlier I introduced you to the WorkXpress API. If you have not read it already you should do so before reading this post. Once you have a basic understanding of what it is and how it works, it's time to start diving into the API.
