Tom Fuller replied to Shemeena's discussion 'Backend pagination problem in joomla1.7 component development' in the group Developers
I don't think you need all of the pagination code for 1.7. The code you have here looks more like what you would need for 1.5. I'd suggest you look at the com_weblinks core application for how they do it. 1.7 does most of the pagination…

JDump for Joomla 1.6 now available

As a developer I have come to rely on Jens-Christian Skibak's JDump, located at http://joomlacode.org/gf/project/jdump. JDump is a great way to test variables and arrays to troubleshoot problems with you code. Sadly, version 1.1.1 does not install or run on Joomla 1.6. I was left to rely on print_r() which doesn't give you a good output. I ran into a problem with developing Joomla Bible Study for 1.6 and finally decided to see what was up…See More

Joomla 1.6 Component Installation & 1.6 function cross walk

Now that Joomla 1.6 is out in beta2, does anyone know a good place to find requirements for developers of 3rd party components to make our 1.5 applications work with 1.6?I've seen this started: http://docs.joomla.org/Developing_a_Model-View-Controller_%28MVC%29_Component_for_Joomla!1.6But there is nothing there yet for installation and no crosswalk - what functions have changed and, more…See More

That's a great addition to the code. I adopted those changes - and I like the idea of a separate file for the controller array. Tom

As was previously mentioned here, the correct usage of the request filters will save you from being hacked: if ($controller = JRequest::getWord('controller')) { $path = JPATH_COMPONENT . DS . 'controllers' . DS . $controller .…

Thanks, Amy! I tried some various things to "harden" the main entry point a little further. I KNOW this isn't the best way, but it does work. Let me know the REAL way I should do this: // Require the base controller require_once…

Thanks, Nicholas. Say - how do you get/use Eclipse PDT? I think I am also going to follow the recommendation of an earlier post to take it one step further and have a list of "approved" controllers and make the getWord or getCmd entry…

Such a great idea that I already created a feed and put a link on our website www.JoomlaBibleStudy.org. I sure hope this fix does the trick.

I sent out an urgent newsletter to our nearly 800 subscribers with the update. Tweeting is a good idea, though. I should start one for our component. Thanks!

I can't believe how responsive everyone has been. The guy who first told me of the vulnerability put me on to your site. A great and needed resource for us developers of third party components. I'm also very interested in the 1.6 documentation thread so we can begin preparing out components for that version of Joomla. You also have been helpful to me in the past on the Joomla.org forums - thanks again!
