Re: [wdvltalk] Changing Hosting Provider

Hopefully more in the future. Who do you recommend? I am looking at GoDaddy - what are people's experiences with them? They are great for domain name registration. Should I purchase their reseller's package or is that overkill? Should I look at the virtual dedicated server option? It seems good value, but I have no interest in maintaining a server myself. If you aren't into maintaining a server yourself, a dedicated or virtual dedicated server will end up costing lots of $ for support. Shared hosting with a reseller plan is a very good choice for most people with multiple web sites to host. I'm not looking forward to the headaches of moving, but I have to make the move, even if I do it gradually. Obviously I don't really want to be paying full fare at both. Moving is a PITA fer sure, doing it gradually means extending the time that you will get calls from *some* clients because they are impatient waiting for the DNS changes to go through...a matter of personal taste I 'spose... I like these guys, they keep their servers at ThePlanet.com which is a company out of Texas that has MASSIVE connectivity. You can get a reseller plan for them through a company called Hostgator out of Florida - good people that have grown a lot in the past few years but unlike a lot of companies they keep hiring support staff - that's a good thing. http://www.hostgator.com/resellers.shtml The Aluminum reseller plan will probably be enough for you, easy to upgrade. No, I don't work for them. Have used them myself though, and still keep a few domains running with them even though I've moved up to dedicated boxes with ThePlanet myself. -- cheers, Mark The WDVL Discussion List from WDVL.COM To Join wdvltalk, Send An Email To: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] or use the web interface http://e-newsletters.internet.com/discussionlists.html/ Send Your Posts To: wdvltalk@lists.wdvl.com To change subscription settings, add a password or view the web interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/read/?forum=wdvltalk http://www.wdvl.com ___ You are currently subscribed to wdvltalk as: archive@jab.org To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe via postal mail, please contact us at: Jupitermedia Corp.

The documentation is somewhat cryptic, it explains how to do things, but doesn't explain what to do, when, or why.

Re: [wdvltalk] My blog is set up and awaits your critique and comment - looperman
Some things take a long time. I have now set up a blog based on Wordpress at http://www.looperman-is-ready.com/wordpress/index.php 1. Can you have a look and give a general comment. 6. Any other kind advice. As mentioned, things will go a bit wonky when the widths of your web pages are set in pixels, especially if you go against the CSS recommendations and everything is all high-res and your User-Agent/browser is not rescaling and following the recommended relative pixel size of 90dpi. http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS1#length-units That said, the template you used is extremely popular and there is nothing inherently wrong with it. Some improvement can be gained tho'; although you have the font-size set in ems, some people using real big text or high res monitors are going to see something like the screenshots in the earlier post. I use the same template on a popular blog with a wide range of users and the defaults in the template for the most part seem to be just fine, personally I think it may be a wee bit tiny but that's just me. To fix that, go through the css portions and play with the widths of the structure and change the columns so they expand along with the text, so for example the width part of: .narrowcolumn at 450px will be instead 27.7em, (tenths of ems work fine in all modern browsers), and so on. Do the same for any heights of structure blocks if present as well, a wee gap instead of being a few pixels is height:.2em etc. -- cheers, Mark The WDVL Discussion List from WDVL.COM To Join wdvltalk, Send An Email To: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] or use the web interface http://e-newsletters.internet.com/discussionlists.html/ Send Your Posts To: wdvltalk@lists.wdvl.com To change subscription settings, add a password or view the web interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/read/?forum=wdvltalk http://www.wdvl.com ___ You are currently subscribed to wdvltalk as: archive@jab.org To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe via postal mail, please contact us at: Jupitermedia Corp.

Re: [wdvltalk] OT: GRRRRR!!! shared folders are empty!

All folders I have set to share have content in them on the desktop but when I go to open the folders on the laptop, they're empty. It doesn't show up instantly, you have to wait a second or four. Also, just because you have a document in a shared folder on one computer, that doesn't mean it's *physically* on the other computer too, just that both computers can *see* the same document. This really doesn't make sense because I had one folder shared yesterday and the files/folders were in them on both computers - today it's not working. I recall taking the above steps and it worked yesterday for that one single folder once I figured out what I was doing wrong. I think you may just not be giving it enough time for the contents of the folders to appear maybe, sounds like you had/have it working. It would have been quicker to copy my ~entire desktop contents~ over to multiple cd's and then copy them over to the laptop one cd at a time than the time it's taken me to NOT make this work for just a few folders! Where anyone gets simple out of this process is beyond my comprehension. lol, it's a matter of practise. For those that have done it a few times there's nothing better than your own little home network to get things done between computers. Question: XP adds on laptop to any folder I set up in Network Places. So it's Games on laptop showing in Network Places. Do I need to keep the on laptop portion of the name? That name in parenthesis is just to tell you that what you are viewing is not C:\ etc. and is produced just for that window and is not actually part of anything but a visual aid. Don't try to have that name in parenthesis not show, it's how you tell which computer the document you are looking at/modifying is on and at some point in time you will be glad it is there.

No, there is only one copy of the file you are working on. Some softwares will recognize that someone else is modifying the file and tell you so, others not, so ymmv. Second question - if you are working in the same fashion as the first question but the computer not in use is also not physically turned on - what happens then when you do turn it on? If the other computer has a file on it that you want to access and that computer is not turned on you can't access it. Which set of files will take over the ones that have been worked on/updated or the ones that were not because the other computer was turned off at the time of updating? There is only one set of files, somehow you have come to think that by sharing folders the same folders are present on both computers, that is not the case. You are simply accessing the same file with two different computers. Third question - if I can get one blasted folder shared - any ideas why then all subsequent attempts to share other folders have failed? It took me a few tries to get my very first folder shared and I was so proud of me - FINALLY! Then the other shoe fell and I haven't been able to share any subsequent folders.

I am using this to send email, and have having trouble getting the reply address right: $mailto=$userstuff[3]; $mailfrom=[EMAIL PROTECTED]; $mailsubject=A status change on one of your layouts; $mailbody=email stuff here; mail($mailto,$mailsubject,$mailbody,$mailfrom); When the email is received and viewed, the reply-to address is [EMAIL PROTECTED] instead of [EMAIL PROTECTED]. Where is [EMAIL PROTECTED] coming from (a server setting?) and how do I change it? It comes from your php .ini (config) file that in your case probably says under apache': User/Group nobody(99)/99 and under the PHP Core bit is: sendmail_from - no value What is probably happening is that you have no actual email address for the user do-not-reply configured under the domain: domain.com, so php mail() is just using what is available instead, which is 'nobody'. Most likely if you create a real email address for the script to reference it will work, instead of messing with your php config. The list tell you how to do that too if you feel brave, but you prolly figured it out for yourself already :-) ?php phpinfo(); ? and name the file phpinfo.php then ftp it over to your server to see what you have running on your system to confirm. hth! cheers, Mark The WDVL Discussion List from WDVL.COM To Join wdvltalk, Send An Email To: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] or use the web interface http://e-newsletters.internet.com/discussionlists.html/ Send Your Posts To: wdvltalk@lists.wdvl.com To change subscription settings, add a password or view the web interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/read/?forum=wdvltalk http://www.wdvl.com ___ You are currently subscribed to wdvltalk as: archive@jab.org To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe via postal mail, please contact us at: Jupitermedia Corp.

He says both ISO-8859-1 and UTF-8 can cause severe headaches with PHP. I wouldn't call them severe as long as you know the problem exists. Of course there are going to be a couple gotchas in any article like that, the first one that caught my eye was most Web servers are set up to serve HTML content using the ISO-8859-1 character encoding which is true as most of the web (about 70%) runs on Apache and Apache2 comes with the AddDefaultCharset ISO-8859-1 directive. It also serves with a default install about 20 other character sets. Has anyone experienced sites, sales, fora (forums), etting mucked up by character encoding problems? This seems to mostly be where surfer input is involved. And what is your aspirin substitute to solve the problem? Know your audience, make your forms check client and server side for the correct input. Don't try to exclude bad input, (other than the obvious of course), instead accept only the data that you expect to get and if it's not correct, send a friendly message to the form user. In my experience, the only problem I've had with this is having an old app force utf-8 encoding on a form that interacted with the db, and mysql was choking because it wanted a different charset. Can't remember what I did to fix the appy, prolly just matched the two up so they talked the same dialect and defined closer what was acceptable. The article linked from Kevin's has practical information that you can really use, like which string functions will muck up with the wrong encoding etc: http://wact.sourceforge.net/docs/doku.php?id=php:i18n:charsets hth! cheers, Mark The WDVL Discussion List from WDVL.COM To Join wdvltalk, Send An Email To: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] or use the web interface http://e-newsletters.internet.com/discussionlists.html/ Send Your Posts To: wdvltalk@lists.wdvl.com To change subscription settings, add a password or view the web interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/read/?forum=wdvltalk http://www.wdvl.com ___ You are currently subscribed to wdvltalk as: archive@jab.org To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe via postal mail, please contact us at: Jupitermedia Corp.

Subject: [wdvltalk] Pop Up Windows
Hi gang,
I have a simple popup window code like this:
script language=javascript type=text/javascript
!-- Begin
function openWindow(mypage,myname,w,h,scroll) {
var winl=(screen.width-w)/2;
var wint=(screen.height-h)/2;
winprops = 'height='+h+',width='+w+',top='+wint+',left='+winl+''
win = window.open(mypage, myname, winprops)
if (parseInt(navigator.appVersion) = 4) {
win.window.focus(); }
}
// End --
/script
It works great in all browsers, however, IE (the usual culprit),
adds a
status bar at the bottom of the popup window!!! Does anyone
know how
to omit that status bar? What is it called so I can add it to the
winprops above?
I usually put status=0, but then my popup code usually looks like
below and I don't bother with version 4 of Navigator:
function openWin(vUrl,vTarget){
n =
open(vUrl,vTarget,'toolbar=0,location=0,status=0,menubar=0,scrollbars
=yes,resizable=0,top=20,left=70,width=400,height=350');
}
hth!

Re: [wdvltalk] Pop Up Windows
I tried status=0, but that didn't work, but thanks anyway. I guess
I
could try your script if that's ok with you.
no problem, it's one that Jeff H., youngpup, or PPK left out in the
wild for an example, (stand on the shoulders of giants). You call it
in the html accessible-wise thusly:
body
a href=event-date.htm onclick=openWin(this.href, this.target);
return false; target=_blanksome text/a
/body
in the head of your doc this bit, (or use an include instead if you
prefer)
script language=JavaScript type=text/javascript
!-- hide from older browsers
function openWin(vUrl,vTarget)
{
n =
open(vUrl,vTarget,'toolbar=0,location=0,status=0,menubar=0,scrollbars
=yes,resizable=0,top=20,left=70,width=400,height=350');
}
// --
/script
I don't know much about the script you're using, but can hazard a
guess as to what might work. Also don't know what letter the appy
you're using has for statusbar as scroll starts with an s as well,
so will make up my own called sb (I left extra space between the
( ' ) apostrophes to see where the bits 'o winprops land, in case I
mucked it up - untested eh ;-)
Begin
function openWindow(mypage,myname,sb,w,h) {
var winl=(screen.width-w)/2;
var wint=(screen.height-h)/2;
winprops = ' status='+sb+', height='+h+', width='+w+',
top='+wint+', left='+winl+''
win = window.open(mypage, myname, winprops)
if (parseInt(navigator.appVersion) = 4) {
win.window.focus(); }
}End
hth!

Re: [wdvltalk] Pop Up Windows
- Original Message - Subject: Re: [wdvltalk] Pop Up Windows I am noticing that each time I get an update for IE, through my windows updates, things change with IE. It never put a status bar at the bottom before, and I've been using that script since about 2000, but it sure does now. I think that's a security feature of some sort - allows the site visitor to know where they are at by default, instead of the other way around. Things like this happen all the time with IE, and maybe, even with Mozilla, Firefox, Opera, and other browsers. I never paid attention to changes before, but I guess I'll have to check all browsers from now on. Pardon my presumptuousness, but I see all browser developers having a snit with the marketing dept., less so with open source browser solutions. The snit involves adhering to RFC, W3C standards and the way we've done things, and imho standards are winning out. There's an awful lot of us with bank accounts using Firefox or some type of gecko browser instead of M$'s old NCSA Mosaic browser from 1995.

$query .= WHERE time_format(show_start,'%H') = '$myHour';
$mysql_result = mysql_query($query, $mysql_link);
if($row = mysql_fetch_row($mysql_result))
{ $id = $row[0];
$title = $row[1];
$dj = $row[2];
$show_day = $row[3];
$show_start = $row[4];
$show_end = $row[5];
print(h1now playing/h1);
if($show_day == $myDay)
{
print(strong);
$str = (2005-02-07 . $show_start);
if (($timestamp = strtotime($str)) === -1) {
echo nothing on right now;
} else {
echo date('g:i', $timestamp);
}
print(nbsp;-nbsp;);

}
$nowPlaying++;
if($nowPlaying == 1)
{print(h1next/h1);
print(strong$show_start - $show_endnbsp;::/strongbr);

For PHP and HTML editing I use the Zend IDE http://www.zend.com/store/products/zend-studio-personal.php For the log files, assuming you don't want to edit them but just look at the contents, the command line tools 'more' (or 'less') and 'grep' work well. 'more' lets you page through the file and even search for strings. With 'grep' you can use pattern matching to extract lines from the log to another file. You'll then have a smaller file to view. Cool, I'll try that out. Correct about the log files, just for pulling a line or two now and then for archival purposes and used Vim earlier on today to read a 44MB file and it worked very well - but don't think I want to use it for actual coding or html mark-up - it's nice to have options... Still learning which commands are useful, and great to have confirmation that those ones work as advertised, will use them too. btw, started computing in the 80's, took a break and then it was all Windows. Don't know why it took me so long to start using a *nix computer operating system again, but sure glad I have - Linux really does rock, I've just started to get my feet wet with it and a very happy camper so far. cheers, Mark MG Web Services www.mgwebservices.ca Your Canadian West Coast web site development and hosting solution.

I couldn't tell if I needed the program or not. One thing about going through the registry manually, I see where the file is listed and it's easier for me to make a decision of 'keep' or 'delete'. It's not a program for the feint of heart for sure, back up your registry etc. and some may need to do research on a particular registry key before deleting it. Right clicking on the program or author name though tells you exactly where to find it so it's valuable for tracking things down before you delete too. cheers, Mark The WDVL Discussion List from WDVL.COM To Join wdvltalk, Send An Email To: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Send Your Posts To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To set a personal password send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the words: set WDVLTALK pw=yourpassword in the body of the email.

Any tips or hints will be appreciated. Thanks Not sure if PeopleHost would accept your help from the sounds of it, they have been so unresponsive for you over the past few weeks. Actually diagnosing the problem requires honestly knowing what the real situation is, equipment configs, error messages etc. and so far they have not mentioned anything that specific to you. If they do get more real, then this or the other list will most likely have someone that has seen it before and get them headed in the right direction. By this time I would have changed hosts, but something must be keeping you from doing that. Maybe that something is not a big deal as you think? cheers, Mark The WDVL Discussion List from WDVL.COM To Join wdvltalk, Send An Email To: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Send Your Posts To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To set a personal password send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the words: set WDVLTALK pw=yourpassword in the body of the email.

Wu [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: April 28, 2004 11:46 AM Subject: [wdvltalk] (OT) mail problem (recurring) The online email issue happening last year is reoccurring now (actually for a while) and becoming worse: all the online email functions- php mail() - I have at two websites are not working; they just don't send out emails they suppose to. The mail() function is coded in two contact forms and other places at a shopping cart to email visitors, customers, siteowner, and shopowner. This time, it just plainly sends no one any mail, even after a everything. I remember that someone in this Forum has several times recommending PeopleHost based on his/her experience as a user. Could that member, or anyone, tip me off how to get them (PeopleHost) to resolve/fix this problem? Or point out the possible causes of this mail() malfunction? Thanks so much. Can't help you with PeopleHost (I've been using Datahive.ca for over a year, (Expert Host before that) recommended from the evolt list and I got on board with them early - not sure what kind of reselling programs they have now for new people but tell Scott or Travis that I sent you). Hsphere control panel, good people, great servers in a secure datacentre in Canada. Have you done the obvious I suppose like uploaded a phpinfo.php file and checked the mail server path, globals etc. are as they should be? iirc you(?) already went through the globals on/off thing once way back when and you're using code that doesn't rely on that right? just a gut feeling they are changing their configurations and not telling you... cheers, Mark MG Web Services Web Site Hosting and Development www.markgroen.com 604-780-6917 Bowen Island, B.C., Canada The WDVL Discussion List from WDVL.COM To Join wdvltalk, Send An Email To: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Send Your Posts To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To set a personal password send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the words: set WDVLTALK pw=yourpassword in the body of the email.

We have several directories that we do not want to be public, but it seems like only honest robots would follow the exclusion rules and any non-law-abiding crawler could ignore them and enter. Is that correct? If yes, how do we keep them out? Our only idea is to place them above the root level and access them through scripts. You didn't mention what type of server you are on, assuming Apache use .htaccess files.

- Original Message - From: Amrit Hallan To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: April 22, 2004 5:39 PM Subject: [wdvltalk] Re: PHP: 404 error handling No error message. I have even tried print($_SERVER['DIRECT_URL']; and it returned 0. print $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']; returns /redirect.php whereas I need to know the name of the file that was not found. that's the right syntax for what gets returned. re-examine your logic in the flow of things because it's telling you just that - that the page you are coming from is the redirect page [/redirect.php] which I'm guessing is initiated in your 404 directive in the htaccess file right? the htaccess is an internal thing and not considered a URI etc. Try using $REQUEST_URI instead. BTW, if you want to get an email as well when a 404 happens besides just getting the $REQUEST_URI string, nice little chunk of code here: http://www.devarticles.com/c/a/Apache/Trap-And-Get-Notified%3A-A-Practical-Solution-To-404-Errors-With-PHP/ snipped: http://snipurl.com/5w42 cheers, Mark The WDVL Discussion List from WDVL.COM To Join wdvltalk, Send An Email To: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Send Your Posts To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To set a personal password send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the words: set WDVLTALK pw=yourpassword in the body of the email.

If we take the method script type=text/javascript src=myInclude.js/script as an example, I wonder which would be quicker and more economic: ssi or simply using the javascript include if you were serving the page over the www. Do any of you happen to know? Over the web your customers would perceive the server side includes to be faster as they are generated before anything is output to the browser (the client) and then it is part of that page file, not as a separate file when they see it. With the JavaScript solution, the included code must be downloaded first along with the JavaScript code to actually include it. The client side never sees the server side include. hth! cheers, Mark The WDVL Discussion List from WDVL.COM To Join wdvltalk, Send An Email To: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Send Your Posts To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To set a personal password send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the words: set WDVLTALK pw=yourpassword in the body of the email.

Doesn't take much too learn if you're familiar with Flash. MM has a page for comparison, when to use either or both: http://www.macromedia.com/software/director/resources/integration/flash/when_flash.html Flash is easier to use imho if you don't need to actually edit the video, max flexibility with Director editing-wise. cheers, Mark The WDVL Discussion List from WDVL.COM To Join wdvltalk, Send An Email To: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Send Your Posts To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To set a personal password send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the words: set WDVLTALK pw=yourpassword in the body of the email.
