Incidentally, are the fixes I made earlier working OK? Any other broken stuff?
I'll take that as a no. :)
However, there might be new broken stuff! Excitement.
Here are a few of the things that might currently be shafted:
fiddled with the layout and added some pastely, hopefully safely boring colours
cell with list of sites no longer wraps
new addons are now shown in bold on the web list
new addons are now prefixed with "[new]" in the RSS feed
added an option to list just new addons or all updated
added mod info detail page, linked to at the start of each row in the list - shows most as much information as possible from that I've stored in the DB
backend: curse changelogs are now added to the DB (list of changes will be added to the mod info page)
wrote an angry email to ui.worldofwhores.bastards for being so shit
The "new" stuff is a bit subjective unfortunately - my db is only a few days old, so a lot is new that isn't really. But hey, not really new is the new retro, did you hear?
Two things next - cookies so you don't have to keep resetting everything, and some way of searching just the list in case you only wanted general information about an addon rather than updates. I realised it's actually something I do quite often: try and find an addon I've seen in the last 6 months and completely forget which site it was on.
Hooray, I got a link from the main EU WoW site! Go me!

I'm using the regex
right now. Seems to do the job for me :D?
Edit: also fiters out most obvious libs from wowace
Incidentally, I didn't reply to your original question - using ypipes is fine, as is er, well anything really.
Nice. Thanks!

Now, I could be wrong, but I think I'm sensing a bit of hostility here...
Two faced cocksuckers, I hope they go bankrupt!
