  1. If you have one xml-file containing train departure information, a webbrowser can transform this xml-information to html by using xsl or css. What you get is a website. But the same xml-file can also be read by a railway station display or other non-PC-machines. So in a way xml might not be internet mainstream yet, but it kinda mainstreams in more and more areas.


  2. Hi!Mabe some of your soundfiles (like "dingdong.wav" and so on ...) are deleted. On my computer these soundfiles are in the folder C:\Windows\Media\ Sound scheme still seems to be alive, but if the particular soundfiles are not found, they of course can't be played. GreetingZ


  3. Hi there,

     

    I have a code which grabs an xml-file from another location, reads it and puts the content into al local file. I use fopen, fwrite and fclose. The code goes like this:

     

    <?php

     

    $local_file = 'lala.xml';

     

    $fd1 = @fopen ('http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ https://l''>https://l'>http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ https://l' 'r');

    while ($line=fgets($fd1,4000))

     

    $alltext.=$line;

     

    $fd2 = @fopen('lala.xml', 'w');

    @fwrite($fd2, $alltext);

     

    @fclose($fd1);

    @fclose($fd2);

    ?>

     

    On my Apache at home everything works fine. But it doesn't work on the Xisto server. I thought all I needed was allow_url_fopen being set to ON and safemode OFF. As far as I understand the PHP information in my accounts http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ https://p'>phpinfo.php it should all work. Does anybody have an idea why the file is not written?

     

    Thank U


  4. I don't like Adobe products, I hate these "flying" menus. But .... i think it really doesn't matter if we like this fusion or not. Adobe doesn't take over Macromedia for creating nicer software or cheaper programs, they do it for one reason only: making more money! (See how MACR stock quotes rose up since the message that Adobe eats them.) So let's wait and see what happens. Perhaps one day Microsoft will buy Adobe. :)


  5. It doesn't seem to smart to have a couple hundred different browsers that all read html in different ways, there has to some form of standardization, otherwise the internet would become impossible to use.

    Somehow it's the same thing with any spoken language. There is only one ENGLISH, but it sounds different in ireland than it does in Canada. But it's still english. Even if it's difficult sometimes, all english native speakers will understand each other. And I guess EVERY browser will speak HTML ....

    ... hopefully :)


  6. I think the problem with XML/XSL is that browsers parse the sourcecode in different ways. The Internet Explorer's built-in XML-Parser can throw a xml-file vs. a xsl-stylesheet very simply, other broser's parsers can't. So to make your XML/XSL-site working, you've got to let the transformation take place on the server. Most of the webspace providers running the Apache Server with PHP don't have the XSLT (Sablotron) implemented . But the xslt_create()-command is necessary to do a XML/XSL-transformation without programming an own xml-parser. I think as soon as these things change XML/XSL will "win".GreetingZ


  7. Another way to increase perfomance ist to create a ramdisk. A ramdisk is a virtual volume which lives completely in the RAM, so all data stored in it will be gone after shutdown.

    Get yourself a little ramdisk-application for example this one here:

    Then change the directory of your Temporary Internet Files and put it into the ramdisk. (In Internet Explorer: Extras-Options-TempFiles-Settings-Move Folder). From now on when accessing the temporary files no harddisk action is necessary, so surfing the web turns faster!

  8. Well, I don't care what anybody says, anybody should use the browser he likes, let's not make "browser-wars" ... but I DON'T NEED tabbed browsing and a pop-up-blocker and allt that stuff! I think many of the Firefox-users use it because it's a not-Microsoft-product, that's o.k. but I prefer my Internet Explorer. Why should I ride a BMW or a Mercedes when I own a Rolls Royce??? :-)
