HFS ~ HTTP File Server / Format of date in %timestamp%

« on: January 21, 2006, 04:16:23 PM »

W3C recommendation:

International Dates

Don't use dates like "04-03-02".

The date above could mean the second day of March in 2004. It could also mean the fourth day of March in 2002. Or even the third day of April in 2002.

The international standard organization (ISO) has defined an international standard format for dates as "yyyy-mm-dd", where yyyy is the year, mm is the month and dd is the day.

When you use this ISO format, you can expect most visitors to understand your dates.

The actual format in HFS is dd-mm-yy. Rejetto, would it be possible to change the format to the recommended ISO format?

HFS ~ HTTP File Server / Request wrt. variables

« on: March 26, 2005, 01:36:49 PM »

Hi,

first I want to say that HFS2.0 is one of the greatest pieces of software i've used.
Here are my requests/suggestions/ideas:
1. In order to build my website, the main page (server root) should show my induvidualized content, whereas the fileserver part should be accesible from a link from there. I could solve that by using the %login% and %loggedin% variables to control the html-flow. This could be achieved in the grey template (see post before) because both variables do exactly the opposite.
I would like to do the same with other variables, like %upload%, which takes over under the condition that there is a real folder. What i would like, is to have the opposite variable "%non-upload% in order to create different html layout for download and upload folders.

2. Uploading with the same filename overwrites the existing file with the same name. This could be exploited to delete uploaded files. Is it possible to append for examle a timestamp on every file to make uploaded files unique? (like %timestamp%_filename.ext for uploaded files)

3. I know this is requested several times, but https support would make HFS a real killer...
Just my thougts.

Oh btw ... HFS works also fine on LAN's, fits on a memory stick & travels with me in my pocket. I can now be online from every PC (no  registry!) as long there is no firewall to cross. GREAT!

HTML & templates / Grey Template

« on: March 24, 2005, 08:01:02 PM »

Hi,

some time ago I stumbled across HFS 2.0 beta 20.  Great piece of work!
Thanks Rejetto!
Based on the black template I moded around with black.tpl to get a combined web&fileserver, which suites more to my needs. It's still under construction, but you can already see the result at opensource.homedns.org (at least when i'm online. Your comments are highly appreciated & feel free to use & modify the template for your own use.
