Tip of the Iceberg

Category xided
If you're beta testing XIDED and would like to test more frequent updates, I'm going to be switching to a "nightly build" approach - there will now be three versions of the application's JavaScript to choose from:

1. xided.js.gz - this is the default, which is the source associated with the most recent "stable" build.
2. xided-nightly.js.gz - whenever I make changes and get to "a good stopping point", I'll update this file to include the latest features and fixes. This will typically be reasonably stable, as it will only be updated when it seems to be working the way I intended. There will ocassionally be unpredictable behavior or slight performance degradation, since some refactoring is inevitable prior to releasing the changes as part of the next "official" build.
3. xided-test.js.gz - you're seein' what I'm seein'. With the exception of the rare experiment that works flawlessly on the first attempt, anything new in this build will be buggy and may, in fact, break the whole application... but I thought I might as well provide this as an option for those that feel the urge to "live on the edge".

To switch to option 2 or 3, update the script tag at the end of the head in the XIDEDInterface Page element to point to the source file of your choosing. Over the next few weeks, xided.com will be changing from the existing domBulletin-based forum to a more traditional site layout (though the forum will still be available), and will include release notes - both for the latest stable build and the nightlies. As always, I'd love to hear any feedback (positive or negative) you have regarding XIDED, whether via comments on this site, postings in the forum, or email.
