Nice JS code to add to your theme when using modal frames is this one. Closes window when you click outside the frame.

    /* close the modal box when the user clicks outside its bounds */
    $('.ui-widget-overlay').live('click', function(e){
      Drupal.modalFrame.close();
    });

Recently I was envolved with moving a site from one server (VPS) to other. I had to make a VPS installation also and setup of the server. I used Debian 6 which usually comes with php 5.3. Sometimes some modules have problems with 5.3 version of PHP.

User 1 has all the privilegies. But for other you need to set them. If you want that user has ability to change who authored node you will need to give him "administer nodes" permission. Usually overlooked, this permission is unde node module permission set.

People usually set argument and often don't mind about validation. Just leave basic validation thinking most will pass. But that is not the case. For example you can use User ID ad argument and think both UID and User Name would pass, but that is not the case. You have to go and select "User" Validator and use "Allow both numeric UIDs and string usernames" for this to work.

white-space: no-wrap; to work to LI or in fact A tag inside LI. Those having that problem will know what I am talking about.

Most will use views 3.x in future and they should as they are really better, from UI point of view to other parts but for some old sites that are not updated and you want to theme exposed filters differently, you can't from default. You need to change some template as all your filters have the same classes.

with line like this, where you choose custom date format

format_date($timestamp, 'custom', 'D, j M, Y \a\\t G:i' );

or use some predefined date format on your site like
