  1. I am a new user in linux.... started few weeks ago...and I used genome for some days... but could not grasp as many things... as i was a windows user earlier.... then i tried KDE it is much friendlier than genome i think... i am doing well with kde... Actually I really feel at home with KDE... the file browser konquerer is better than genome nautilius...i say... i like KDE


  2. Yes you can use mysql database on the server as well. The fact is most of the small asp based site use ms access single file based database that is ms access. You need to have a server that has the microsoft's jet (ADODB) to do such things. These are simple to connect. Though I hardly use the msaccess database and hardly use asp so i am afraid i could not give the detail implementation on that. but it is for sure it can be used.But about excel i never knew it, rather i have used it as a CSV file.that is it i ever knew


  3. I came to know about Area 51 when I watched the documentary about Apollo mission. That said Apollo mission was fake and all the images and stunts were actually done in Area 51... The Consipiracy Theory about Apollo was well documented...Well I know Area 51 is protected by US millitary and I do suppose that is a forbidden area....that is all


  4. In todays Browsers World I think there are 3 kind of Browsers1. Mosaic (ie IE)2. Mozilla (Netscape, Firefox,mozilla)3. Mac Safari...(I dont know much about safari)all other browsers are breed of these, I Presume... mosaic and Mozilla render the HTML and CSS layouts differently... I had a problem with these too... I use firefox,mozilla,IE,Opera,slimbrowser and netscape to test my pages to see if it is rendered correctly in all the browsers... and I found one thing very irritating about these Browsers... One supports linked CSS and others does not, One supports DIV tag and others does not.... and it really messed up with CSS styles... and its positioning...These all were really getting into my nerves when I found an article about Cross Browser development... that is the pages you develop will render to optimum as you desired... and gentlemen and ladies... I am going through all these stuffs... still unclear but I am goin on...When I get really enuff good insight of these... I will surely share my info to you all guys... better any one tell me about this cross browser capability....


  5. Using mysql with conjuction with PHP gives you better result than any other pairs...I used to use Access(or call it mdb file) and ASP for my web stuffs before I got to know about PHP and MySql... and lo... when I first tried... I could not leave it that easy.... :D I started loving the pair... and it just gets most of the things get done on web without a hassle....About Oracle... I prefer it using with Java when the security and robustness really matters... Though I have not made such a huge secure and robust app on web till date... As I am a web developer I really love that pair... (Oracle and Java) but still when talking about a website today in current scenario where it is really a open community... MySql and PHP really beats the Oracle and Java...So I suggest you to use MySql and PHP coz they are made for each other... :D


  6. I was just curious about how easy it would be to make your own search engines , I don't think I have time to do it now though. It's probably all too technical for me. I don't know so much about programming, so I might not be able to do it. I know you said it isn't so much about programming, but it would still probably be too much of an extra workload for me, I've got a lot going on with my site and with my forum. Thanks for givng me such good info guys. :D

    Creating a search engine needs a huge database i presume and a large brain to scour through all the algos of searching, sorting and implementing the best to suite your needs... I feel its about a effecient programming than about large programming. You need to have all the knowledge about internet and how it works. How you rate pages and index them for better searh...

    i think you should start creating searchengine for a localhost now and make it a big boom on the internet if you succeed in implementing the better algos. Like google does...

     

    Best of luck dude


  7. I use MySql, ORACLE and MSSQL and all three outsmart each other in some attributes

    For me The best database is rated as below.

     

     

    Rating done on the basis of easy to use

    MySQL

    ORACLE

    MSSQL

     

    Rating done on the basis of stability and data security

    ORACLE

    MSSQL

    MySQL

     

    Rating done on the basis of easy to maintain

    MySQL

    MSSQL

    ORACLE

     

    Rating done on Response on Application Development

    MSSQL

    ORACLE

    MySQL

     

    Rating done on Response on Web Development on Remote Server

    MySQL

    ORACLE

    MSSQL

     

    When it comes on developing software... there is no compromise in security hence ORACLE is better than others. But when it comes for web development MySQL has faster response time than other...

    I love them both (MySQL and ORACLE). I used to use MSSQL but I replace it with ORACLE. Moreover I learnt my first Lesson of DBMS on MSSSQL...

     

    MySQL from version 5 onwards does support Stored Procedures. (Its already out as a developer version - but not a stable release yet)...

    Taken from MySQL.org

     

    The following features are implemented in MySQL 5.0.

     

    BIT Data Type

     

    Cursors: Elementary support

     

    Data Dictionary (Information Schema)

     

    Instance Manager: Can be used to start and stop the MySQL Server, even from a remote host

     

    Precision Math

     

    Stored Procedures

     

    Strict Mode and Standard Error Handling

     

    Triggers

     

    VARCHAR Data Type: True VARCHAR support. Maximum effective length of VARCHAR is 65,532 bytes now, and no stripping of trailing whitespace occurs.

  8. How do you transfer the session id? Do you use cookies, have cookies as optional or rely completely on GET variable?

     

    And do you save the session id into database and check it from there?

    Oh and your code would be helpful too. Just explain it or have it properly commented.

    <{POST_SNAPBACK}>


    actually I dont pass the session id in to pages but rely on get... moreover... i use code as such

     

    session_start();$_SESSION['<somevariable>']='someting';
    and use this variable to see if the person has logged in or not... as

    session_start();$_SESSION['logged']=true;
    in some other pages

    if (isset($_SESSION['logged'])&&$_SESSION['logged']){//Some codes}else{// other codes}

    Is this all right or am I just making it feel stupid...

    please tell me better way to handle sessions and with code if any

    Thank you

    HeLp me know about session id and its uses how to pass session id into pages... i have seen PHP self passing id through PHPSESSID in GET variable... how will I save the Session id??? and use it later on...

  9. I do think... its all because gmail is on the rise and soon will be one of the mostly used webmail... but i love gmail and its capability... though i think its because the information its all keeping about the user it is turning malicious... but it is fine with me


  10. I use MySql to power my websites... but still i dont know much about PostGre... I have not used it... but soon test ride it...But if you want to compare about MS-Sql and MySql i can say a little... MySql is faster on web than MS-Sql but the underlying security of MS-Sql... i feel is better than that of MySql...


  11. I use the following to get the best in web...1. Dreamweaver MX/ MS-FrontPage2003 It depends on the usability but I prefer to work in Dreamwear for its ease of creating database driven sites... 2. Photoshop for image editing3. Illustrator for Logo and design works4. Flash and swish for Animating my web...5. and sometimes Notepad for scripting although I do it most of the time in Dreamwearver or Frontpage...I have these in my arsenal...Do I need anything else...and ofcourse CuteFtp for uploads...thanx


  12. Let me share my knowledge about Java and C++.C++ was here before Java came and its obvious for C/C++ to grab large portion of the market. but it does not make C/C++ the only programming language. Everyone Prefers C and C++ because it works as a middle tier of highlevel language and lowlever language. you get both power of programming at root as well as at the top. due to this popularity there are more C/C++ compiler than other languages. like GNU C++ or G++, Turbo C++, Borland C++, Devshed C++, MS C++ and many more they come in many flavour. some are specifically for windows. like VC++. I have not heard any one coding application in VC++ for Linux. Due to this popularity C and C++ has become powerful more and more day by day and today it stands as a ruler in languages. And Microsoft had added a new flavour to C and C++ called C#. Though C# is made from the scratch. It is based on the same norm of C and C++.C++ is handy as it supports both the structured programming and OOP. It is easy if you do not get overdriven by Pointers and end up crashing your software with an error reading "Illegal Referenc to this and that" or "Null Pointer Assignment". Memory management in C/C++ is totally on hands of a programmer. Though there are software to check the memory leaks and garbage collection. But memory management is tedious in C/C++. If you are well with Pointers and memory management then C++ should be your choice. And talking about Graphics and others there are plugin API specially for Graphics, I think much of the graphics software or games are made in C/C++ and their other flavours.Java is great Programming language. And I like to code in Java than in C/C++ because of its ease of use. I have heard that the codes in java are 4 times smaller than the codes written in C/C++ for the same job. Java manages memory itself by its garbage collector. and it eliminates the pointers and itself is based on references. I mean any variable you create are references. Java is easy to use for the programmers from the C/C++ background coz it has the same look and feel of coding.[The curly braces I love Curly braces{}]Graphics in Java is good. The new JDK2 comes with more powerful Graphics API and I think you will hardly need 3rd Party API. Moreover Java is platform independent and secure. You can port your program to any platform without any hassle. I code Java program in windows and use it in Linux and viceversa. Its fun. you need not bother about portability as long as you have JVM running....And there are many to follow...Now you make choice which one is better..
