The wp_tag_cloud is strict, not transitional; my mistake. My theme is a mess in some places but I can get it working with WordPress 2.3 when it comes out.

WordPress 2.3 beta tag cloud
The WordPress 2.3 beta tag cloud is XHTML Transitional not Strict. Also if you want to keep UTW then the permalinks /tag/sometag will not work; the /tag/ will go to the WordPress one and not the UTW version.

Got tags working in WordPress 2.3 beta
My theme’s loop started with start_wp() which works fine for everything except the_tags(). I replaced start_wp() with the_post() and the built into 2.3 tags function started showing up.

That is a very cool option. It also means your webserver [...]

When the author took the next version for purchase only (no longer free) I waited for version 4.0 and plunked down the money to obtain it. The plugin ATPP works reasonably well. It does not [...]
.htaccess to prevent wp-pass.php redirects
See the BUGTRAQ explanation here. By passing arguments to wp-pass.php, the wp-pass.php file will send the requesting browser to the URL that wp_http_refferer points to. By using a simple script the WordPress installation is easily verified as susceptible.
XHTML and image rotate for the header
I’ve had some free time so I’ve added so I went through all my posts (153!) and made sure they validate as XHTML strict. I’ve also played with this theme and added the image rotator for the header. Using Matt’s rotate.php script, I created a directory called and dumped some images in there. The images [...]
