  1. I also support Tyssen in this case. Efficiency, and, therefore, standards-compliant code are two highly important aspects of my coding. I am quite detail-oriented, so I am prone to be very precise and accurate in answering a question and help the person understand. I strongly suggest that everyone should help the person who posted the question understand what his/her problem is, so that he/she does not come across the exact same problem again. And, most of all, BE FRIENDLY!!
  2. Your script looks pretty good...but I generally use a one-way hash (MD5 or the one built into MySQL) for all of my encrypting, but, then again, I never have to decrypt anything...I wonder if anyone will actually attempt to break your code/script.Good coding!!
  3. You can find the full documentation of the font shorthand CSS here: http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/fonts.html%23font-shorthand Good luck and good coding!
  4. As far as I know, the only fool-proof way to keep your text a static size is to use an image. Browsers these days even allow the user to change the size of text that is defined to have a certain pixel size...Sorry that I can't help much...Good luck!
  5. Just wondering, why are you using Dreamweaver templates in the first place if all you need to do is edit a couple of regions. Are the only one editing the files, or is someone else editing as well?? If you are the only one, I would suggest that you ditch the dreamweaver template idea and just use dreamweaver's powerful features to edit the files...I tried DW templates and absolutely despise them now because they gave me so much trouble. Again, I suggest that you ditch the templates...but that's just me.Good luck.
  6. Thanks for the info and link, but I personally like Google's new personalized home more than Google Reader, hopefully they will improve on it.Thanks again for the link!!
  7. I am not really aware of MySpace's customization features, but if there is anyway to directly input CSS or (X)HTML, then you can definitely use Dreamweaver to make a template or whatever.Good Luck!!
  8. I agree with Arigato. Newspapers will probably never disappear, at least not without a lot of dissent. There really is no replacement. There is also something special about having something physical in your hands, there definitely is not a replacement for that.
  9. Well, HTML DOM was originally the W3C's idea, so all of it should conform to standards. BUT! Every browser is different and some read javascript differently, especially since it is not a standard...so some browsers have DOM objects that other browsers do not. However, that does not keep the page from being standards-compatible because of the fact that javascript is client-side and is a script language, and, as far as I know, the W3C's standards do not deal with anything pertaining to scripts.I hope that this makes sense...Good luck and good coding!!
  10. I agree with truefusion...it is really hard to see what you are trying to do. Try truefusion's code, it should work for you. I would also suggest that you consider ditching tables. They are really messy, especially with new CSS that is more powerful than tables. I would also suggest that you use "semantic" markup--use only tags for structure, and then only when that is the best tag to use--then almost all browsers will read your HTML and CSS correctly (or however you intend it to be read). Good Luck and good coding!!
  11. I would suggest that you check out http://www.opensourcecms.com/ and http://www.cmsmatrix.org/ to look at a lot of different Content Management Systems. The second site has a great search feature that you can use to narrow down free and paid CMSs that conform to your requirements. The first site is great for all types of open source CMSs. Good Luck with your CMS search!!
  12. I personally try to structure my SQL statments so that the absolute minimum changes are able to occur. So, like sportytalk said, add detail to your SQL statements so that no one can add information to your statement. I also often use parentheses, which make it really hard to change the original statement. If you want the best documentation about how you can structure your statements, I would suggest exploring the SQL documentation at http://www.mysql.com/. Good Luck! And good coding!
  13. Thanks for the link!! It's not the largest site I have seen recently, but there are some quality scripts there...I will keep it in mind.Thanks again!
  14. I like Gmail just the way it is--the layout is simple and not very cluttered. It also loads pretty quickly, and anyway, Google is already kind of revamping their home page, from which you can access Gmail...I think Google is doing all the right things!Go Google!!
  15. I would suggest that you go buy a book. That's how I began to learn Java, then I just examined lots of code to figure out good techniques, but a book is definitely the best starting place, in my opinion.Good Luck learning Java!!
  16. I agree with Tyssen...the screenshot says that your CSS is completely valid. So why are you asking what is invalid??? Hope you find out/figure out what is going on!!Good Luck~
  17. Google never ceases to amaze me!! (especially because they have not gotten one thing wrong--at least not yet--everything is awesome!!)Go GOOGLE!!!!
  18. One database would be the fastest and likely the most efficient. But it's all up to you. There are some professionals out there who are database consultants, so that should give you an idea of how complex the issue could be. It's really up to you...Good Luck!
  19. I would suggest that you actually read the PHP documentation about the unset() function. Here's the link: http://us3.php.net/manual/en/function.unset.php Hope this helps some~
  20. Google is definitely amazing...they are looking into EVERYTHING!! NASA and Google--sounds like a great combo! Thanks for the link to the article!!Go Google!!
  21. I agree that frames are terrible! They are the absolute last thing you should use...if you want to use the next-generation of frames, it would be called AJAX. There's a lot of sites that are using it now, most notable of which are Google Maps and Google Suggest.Remember, Frames = EVIL!!
  22. There's a program called PHPedit that is designed specifically for PHP development. I cannot remember the site where it is located, but if you are interested, google it!!
  23. There are a lot of good books out there...just go to your local bookstore and check out the computer/web programming section (or something similar). The next question is, do you want to learn server-side scripting or client-side? For client-side, definitely go with javascript. For server-side, I would highly recommend PHP, although you need hosting that supports it (same goes for ASP, Perl, and every other server-side language). Most of all, examine what you need to do with the scripting, that's your best guide!! Good Luck!!
  24. devildude93, I visited your site, and all I saw was the default "new account" page. You should probably wait to tell everyone about your site until you actually have something there to see!
  25. If you want to use a cron job, first you have to have hosting, usually linux, that supports cron jobs. Then, though something like cPanel, you can set up a cron job to automatically run a script (in this case your form, which you could just make a PHP or other type of script to post the variables to wherever is needed) every half hour (or whatever length of time you want). If you need more help on the details, don't hesitate to ask! Hope you get it working soon!!
