I was thinking sub-domain when you said sub-url.

Yeah, I’ve never tried to run PHP code inside of a Rails app.

I do not set IMAP Path Prefix to [Gmail]. My experience, and correct me if yours is different, is that setting this will make the Gmail tags (All Mail, Spam, Starred, Trash) appear at the “top level” in Mail.app sidebar (rather than nested in the “[Gmail]” folder. However, it also makes your other tags disappear entirely from Mail.app.</p> Hey Tom. I do not set IMAP Path Prefix to [Gmail].

In addition, if I had mod_rewrite pass off requests to a particular uri/path to a proxy_balancer group while mod_rails was on, mod rails would load and try to serve anyways - with no obvious way to disable it.</p> <p>Who knows! The "benefits" were largely in ease of use. When those faded, I wondered how much utility was left over - and didn't find much.</p> I tried endlessly to get a php dokuwiki running at a sub-url within a rails app, and it would never properly pick up the index page or allow mod_rewrite to rewrite the URLS so that our pre-existing [googled indexed] “pretty” urls would work.

Who knows! The “benefits” were largely in ease of use. When those faded, I wondered how much utility was left over - and didn’t find much.

Tex Winter says.....I don't know who's the greatest between MJ and Kobe but one thing I do know is that... when these two basketball players will play against themselves during their primes, blood will be scattered on the hard court!!!!!! SEE? Got the logic????</p> Guys, there is only and only thing that I will personally share with you whether you are an MJ fan or a Kobe fan…Basically, we ordinary people don’t know exactly how we compare them but there is only one man in this league that he can compare MJ and Kobe… Tex Winter says…..I don’t know who’s the greatest between MJ and Kobe but one thing I do know is that… when these two basketball players will play against themselves during their primes, blood will be scattered on the hard court!!!!!!

Because if the terminator was to kill Sarah, then Skynet could still be built due to the terminator being there in the past. Without John, then Skynet would take over completely.</p> So, if Sarah would die before the terminator was sent back to kill her, then the world would be saved.

Have no fear JORDAN fanatics, he will be missed, the second greatest is gone, deal with it. The only one in your corner is you. Swift-Boat Jordans against KOBE. Like Joe stated, Jordan's era is over. He was the best till KOBE, now its KOBE's mantle, and your greatest fear is that KOBE isn't done yet. What are you gonna be saying 5 years from now when KOBE has a few more rings ??? The Lakers are 30 and under and 1-13 full of talent, eat shit and die my friends.</p> last i checked jordan NEVER outscored an opponent in three quarters, being soooo great , why ?
