[wdvltalk] wdvltalk] "Buy-it" buttons

[service]

A client is looking for a way to sell individual products (2-3) in the 
$1500-$2000 price range and doesn't have (nor want) a merchant 
account.  I've gotten a few suggestions from past posts, and 
checked out a couple, but anyone have any new recommendations 
for a "buy-it" button provider?  Any experiences to pass on?

[wdvltalk] Re: A recap

[service]

>be good if all submitted a short  paragraph of what we do

I'll bite.

Male, 53,  4 kids (All "out"), 7 g-kids, 6 Old English Sheepdogs.  
Live in southern NJ on in the middle of  ~5 acres of trees - love the 
quiet.  By education an electrical engineer (BSEE from Clarkson in 
NY state - raised in Schultzville, NY about 100 miles N of NY).  
Also an EMT (Emergency Medical Technician) and EMS Instructor.  
Oh, also elected to Township Committee, but I'm not really 
"political" (sworn into my second term tonight)

 Spent 26 years in Electrical Engineering for a major NJ Utility 
designing/engineering sub- & switch- ing stations  and then moving 
to nuclear where I ended up as a Manager of Project Managers.  

Been getting into programming and such since an 8088 in the 80's.  
Five years ago they re-org'd and made the mistake of offering 
buyout packages to all that didn't want to play BEFORE they did 
the actual reorg - I was one of about 300 that had their papers in on 
almost the day it was announced (I had planned to leave shortly, 
this was just to good to pass on).

Took my computer skills and my Emergency Medical skills and 
incorporated and started up my own business - Digby Systems, inc 
(named for our first Old English Sheepdog) doing First 
Aid/CPR/Safety Training and web design  (I'm better at the EMS 
stuff ;-)  Taught some FP classes - both from the "design" aspect 
using FP as the tool,  and also teaching the software itself at a 
VoTec that insisted that FP was THE  way to generate a page.

Myself I use FP (quick but...), 1st page (Nice, but has some 
drawbacks), Arachnophilia (acts wacko at times), HTML-kit (some 
nice features), Text-pad, and whatever else suits the immediate 
need. (I never liked DW - maybe never gave it a good chance.) 

I'm soap-boxing - sorry, I'll stop

[wdvltalk] Re: View html page as thumbnail?

[service]

Bob -

I have XP pro sitting here (w/SP1 CD) to be installed on my new
computer when I get a chance to go buy it - not helping right now.


Hugh - Windows thumbnails works fine for the graphics files, but
the html files are basically unreadable - way too small and the
embedded graphics - single pic per page - cannot be identified,
that's why I'm looking for a small program.

Thanks for the ideas.

[wdvltalk] View html page as thumbnail?

[service]

Does anyone know of a small program that can create  (only view 
really)  thumbnails of web pages - I have a folder of about 500+ old 
pages  that I have search and pick only a few out of, and it would 
be easier with pictures then to read/understand file names.

Those I found only do web sites, couldn't get it to open a folder on 
local computer - I guess I could local-host them if it comes to that.

OK, It was the DOCTYPE - when removed, it worked, but I know it 
should be there - what SHOULD it be?

Got it to work with embedded sheet - 

http://www.digbysystems.com/khetzer-3/home-embedded.html, 

so I know it will display.  That means I'm not picking up the link - in 
netscape.

BJ, 
Good Morning--

>Bikini line may make you think harder?  :-)

Depends on who's - Maybe won'tthink about the website!!

> Should I even try clicking on the links?

A work in progress - A couple work - contact, functional art, home, 
classes -  the rest aren't there yet - at least not working :-)

I think my doc-type is wrong.  validates the CSS, but the html 
doesn't - and I'm totally confused at this point - had a couple of 
hours of sleep, maybe I'll be able to make sense of it a little more. 
Long night - couple of bad ambulance calls and this - didn't sleep 
much.

Forgetting the frames, I can't get the css to work on individual 
pages

[wdvltalk] CSS help with NS

[service]

Follow-up to my photo gallery page question - great ideas, beautiful 
sites, but I need to use frames as I will be turning over the site to 
someone else - long story, not tonight.

I can't get the CSS to work in NS7 at 
http://www.digbysystems.com/khetzer-3/
(Don't look at the content, haven't done any more then move some 
over so far - LOT more to do)

I KNOW it should, so I must have some stupid error I can't find. 

Validates at w3 site, works in IE, Opera, K-Meleon (Mozilla) but 
NOT in NS7

http://www.digbysystems.com/khetzer-3/

I'm almost bald at this point, been pulling my hair out strand by 
strand - may have to start on my eyebrow!!

[wdvltalk] Photo Gallery

[service]

I know this was discussed a while ago, but either the archive 
doesn't go back far enough or I don't know how to use it - all I could 
find was recent things on cheap photo programs ;-)

I'm looking for an alternative to a frames page where thumbnails in 
one frame open the picture in the main frame  - any ~~simple~~  
suggestions that are cross browser?

[wdvltalk] FormMail... (From TRIS)

Subject: [wdvltalk] RE: CGI mail script

I run formmail, with no problem, setup  is easy and fast.   

BUT  >>> I recently received the following from my hosting  
company regarding  security problems and a request to change to a 
new version at   
http://nms-cgi.sourceforge.net/scripts.shtm  
It is a drop-in replacement for "Matt's" formmail.  I did it, no 
problems, in just a few  minutes.  See below (there have been 
snips).  (BTW - Radiant provided the link to  use matt's formmail 
program prior to this concern  - oops :-) 

Bob D 
* 
THE SITUATION:  
 .. .Radiant  Web Hosting clients are unwittingly permitting 
spammers to send 
 unsolicited commercial emails (U.C.E aka spam email) via an 
exploitable 
 CGI form mailer script   The script is called 
 'formmail.cgi' or 'formmail.pl', and it has probably been sourced 
from 
 Matt's Script Archive () 

 THE PROBLEM:  
 Due to the poor design of this script, a malicious user can send 
spam 
 email simply by including the list of target email addresses in an 
HTTP 
 request to Formmail.  This behavior makes tracking down the 
origin of the 
 spam email difficult because the only place the spammer's IP 
address is 
 saved is in the Web logs of the affected site. 

 BACKGROUND:  
 .. 

 THE SOLUTION:  
 In order to correct this situation, all instances of this script need to 
 be disabled. An alternative script is available at  
< http://nms-cgi.sourceforge.net/scripts.shtml >. NMS is a set of 
secure 
 scripts designed to be drop-in replacements for those in Matt's 
Script 
 Archive.  It will be necessary for you to download the formmail 
script 
 from NMS, unzip it, and upload it to your website to replace the 
existing 
 formmail program you are currently using.

[wdvltalk] Re: Web Design Contract

[service]

I have a simple one I use on a sample site - your welcome to use 
what you want of it - that's how I started it.

go to
http://www.digbysystems.com/biondi-1/, there is a link at the bottom 
of the page.  Client (a friend)  wanted a FP site so they could 
maintain it themselves - Uh-Huh - this was sample.

Also go to http://www.digbysystems.com/gcara (another sample.  
There will be 30 "clients" for this site!!) and click on design 
information - this is the design infor sheet that is part of the contract 
- the specifics of what they get/don't get.  (same as the part after 
section 9 of the biondi contract)
