Hi!
Got quite a laugh the one day or the other through work, thx for that.
Some days ago the download of "Tom des Tages" failed continously - any ideas why?
Using Ubuntu Natty with KDE 4.7 from kubuntu.org here. Userfriendly and other comics still work.
PLs let me know how I may help you to track this down...

Well, I ain't got no idea how to get this into the comic script, but I got the solution. Find the script .kde/share/apps/plasma/comics/tom_des_tages/contents/code/main.es and edit it, so that it looks like this:
Quote:
// search for the element: <img src="/dx/.1/gif.t,tom.d,1253311200" alt="TOM" width="560" />
// and extract the value of the src-attribute
var re = new RegExp("<img[\\s]+src=\"(/digitaz/.tom/gif.t,tom.d,[\\d]+)\"");
The first two lines are shown as a marker only, the third is the one you have to edit. After doing so the comics are displayed again.
Maybe someone can get this into the comic script so others can benefit, too?
Cool, thanks for finding this out! It's working again.
Christian, are you reading this? It would be great if the comic were updated so it would work again for others, too.
Hi Alex,
yes I am reading this. I am very busy but will update the comic some time soon.
Hope you all have fun reading the Tom comics :)
Regards Christian
Take your time, I just wanted to make sure the maintainer ist still around, and I don't have to take any further action :)
Yes, the cartoon is being enjoyed very much, thanks for making it available.

I can confirm this, no new Tom comics for a week or so. Opening the website still works, maybe the URL of the image itself changed or something.

I just wanted to ask, what's the current state?
