I'll try and find time to fix it, really busy these days (as you can probably tell from the date of the last blog post at my site). Assuming that code found online is bug free and production ready is very dangerous, and you should always at least write unit tests that cover your use cases for the code. For one thing, people make mistakes. Also, most blog posts with code examples obviously don't contain production quality code, but are rather made up there and then.
