Based on statistics, the Delete option is never used, so it's useless
unps.core.js contains code primarly to change submit button to reflect
current selected option
There have been roughly only 1000 links made since v3.1
a 7 character alphanumeric address space is huge. My link shortener
should be happy with a 3 or 4 character alphanumeric address space.
This is to show that the page is actually doing something
if the return message doesn't get shown right away for whatever
reason (slow connection, overloaded server, memory leaks, etc)
This hasn't been implemented yet, but it's a work in progress.
I'm planning on only having one ad display on the page under the
message.
Something else that needs to be done is a loading animation where
the message will appear as the AJAX processes the request
I realized that every single existing link created with v4-2.8 or
earlier would break since it relies on the value of $_GET['l'].
This will keep the old links working, and to reduce server load a
little bit, we will exit after those header statements
I found that right after committing the last commit, the last id
entered would be the one finally redirected to. This also slowed
page load time. By grabbing only the very first key of $_GET and
throwing away the rest, the script will only look at the first
string after the '?'
Need to change links to reflect these changes (or it will try to
redirect to 'l' everytime instead of the id)
By breaking up the $_GET array and grabbing the key (what used to be l),
ignoring the value, we can shorten links by two more characters.
This is kinda hacky since it does this for multiple get values
-- Still need to test to see what happens with multiple link ids.
I assume it will just go with the first id given
Instead of downloading the entirity of the file that's there or risking
a HTTP server not being on port 80, I've decided to move with a faster,
more efficient and web browser complient cURL query

While it looks kinda nice, some people might not apprecieate that it
takes so much time for the page to pop up and it looks like the page
froze or something.

Other changes include redesigning the form area to make them look like buttons
that automatically resize depending on which one is selected.
I independently developed a new style while retaining a similar look
which removed the flat metro-like style and added depth. Also included
is the old css (just because I'm a packrat during development and I wasn't
totally sure that my custom style would work right away).
