I got up a bit earlier today, just before 8am.
Got ready, ate the rest of the rice snacks for breakfast, and left.
I got to work a bit after 9.30am.
I started working on the javascript stuff again, not really getting anywhere.
I had another look at the Oracle stuff I had been trying to do yesterday, changed it back to just using "or field is not NULL" rather than mucking around with all the "NVL(field,0) = 0" stuff I had been trying to get to work, and then almost all of the records were inserted properly.
135 records disappeared, I don't know why, I have to try to work that out yet.
I went back to working on javascript.
It's really hot in the office, apparently the airconditioning is broken again.
I finally managed to get somewhere with the javascript.. I've followed the documentation, and examples, and managed to write something that works.. but only in IE, in Firefox, it just does nothing, no error, nothing.
I'm stuffed as to what the issue is. I'm working off Mozilla's DOM documentation stuff, and it doesn't even work in Mozilla. Geez.
A bit after midday I got an email from upstairs, I was asked if it was as hot down here, since it's horrible up there. I replied and said it was ridiculous down here, and asked if it was time for lunch.
A reply came back, saying it was even hotter outside. I got another email a minute later, do i want to go up to Hungry Jacks, in an air conditioned car.
I went upstairs, it was hot, but nowhere near as bad as downstairs.
I got bailed up by the photographer guy, he's got someone working with him, who's going to have something to do with the website, and he wants to know if I can answer any questions about it, I said I'd tell him whatever I knew about what he wanted to know.
I went with the guy I'd been emailing, we went out to the carpark, wandered around, and jumped in the car with the chick from yesterday.
We drove around to see a house that the guy's thinking of renting, instead of living in the pub.
We then went up to Hungry Jacks. It was ok in there, could have been a bit cooler.
For a laugh, we decided to go and look in Horseland, since they had a sale on.
We had to leave though, because we couldn't stop laughing, because I suggested that some of the stuff in there could have made good props for the photo shoot yesterday, a saddle, or a whip or something :-)
We started back towards work, but because the building was so hot, and the car had airconditioning, we just drove around Maitland a bit, and then we went past the old Maitland Jail (which I refuse to spell "Gaol"), then out to Morpeth, and out through some farm areas, "Phoenix Park", "Largs", "Lorn", and made our way back to Maitland again.
We went back into work, downstairs in the building is still pretty hot, apparently upstairs has got ridiculous now, and I was told that some guy in the legal department upstairs has changed into a pair of shorts.
There's hardly anyone left in here, I think a lot of people have left.
I might try and do a bit more work in Oracle (since I've lost my patience with javascript today), and then go home in a bit, and perhaps go to the beach.
