Re: [ilugd] Is having too many Linux distros a problem?
IMO, It's very good to have many distros as each one was made because they were needed and they have some advantages. As a user you can choose any one of them and fulfill your purpose. It also shows the kind of freedom this open source thing gives to it's users where you can develop something out of something if you don't like it, and encourages others also for the same. There are some minor disadvantages also that as a naive user you can't find easily which distro can fulfill your purpose or which one should you start with etc. But for this there are millions of blogs/posts out there where you can read about your problems and solutions.

[ilugd] Text to speech converter
Hi, I am looking for a text to speech converter for my website with following features - 1 - User will input text and click for preview. 2 - Once confirmed that audio file can be downloaded. 3 - Different audio formats should be allowed. After googling, i found iSpeech converter but this API doesn't provide preview support as i experienced. jTalk plugin is also there but for that you need to submit your url, this means we can't test it on our local machine.

[ilugd] Subdomain creation in PHP application
Dear All, I am stuck to a problem and that is, i am working on a project which requires user registration like any other website/social networks have and then after user registration they want a separate subdomain like http://userName.theirWebsite.com Now i don't understand how is it possible to create a sub domain using Php only... Do i need any other program or anything to do this?? My other question is, even if i get anything to do this won't it be a security threat if any person gets the server credentials, as i will create a sub domain for him/her?? As i guess it's not a good idea.. so is there any method using .htaccess or anyhow to fulfill this requirement?? Need suggestions -- Thanks and Regards RAKESH KUMAR ___ Ilugd mailing list Ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd
