Omg, I can't believe my eyes ... Frontpage x/ . It's the worst WYSIWYG application ever, it's complete lack of standards makes that they only work in Internet Explorer and that is something that is not acceptable in the era. Personaly, I still prefer Notepad++ for creating websites, knowing your code is very important when debugging a website or making it compliant with the W3C standards.Anyway, if you start developping webpage, Dreamweaver is the best choise

Yes, that quite normal. Every object has default values (font-size, line-height, color, margin, padding, ...), but W3C does not define what these default values should be, so every browser has it's own sets of default values. You simply have to make sure that you define them and thus overriding the (different) default value.

I'd rather define (X)HTML as a language that you use to organise data and content, it's more a structural language. The design of a website should be made with CSS.Anyway, this should be a nice sticky

FirefoxRocks, it's normal that you have to reboot if you remove a version of Internet Explorer, it's not a standalone application like Firefox or Opera, but it's an integral part of the operating system. I'm not realy sure if I'm going to install it, I'm currentely developping some websites and I want them to be compatible with the most popular browsers available, but it's very likely that a website that works in IE8b2 is broken in IE8F

Mine is use in a school environment too, but my classmates already know they should be touching my laptop screen . I'm always surprised that keyboards do leave marks on a screen, for me it's a sign that a laptop isn't well designed ... eventualy the coating of the screen might wear out or get damaged

FR, you are one weird dude . You could try PolicyKit to allow and disallow, but it'll take you a while to create a rule for everything

Depending on how you'll use it you have to change it gameinfo in: class (no specific element): .gameinfo class (specifix element) div.gameinfo id (only use gameinfo once) #gameinfo

You could do this in Java (afaik java applets are compiled so there's no source code visible).This might secure on some old days. As computer growth faster. It is risking ! So, I don't suggest that too. However, I do not suggest you to store the password, but a hash of the password (something you always have to do). If a user wants to sign in, the password he entered should be hashed too and then compared to the hash that you saved in the source code. The should keep most malicious users away, but people with some computer knowledge can break it anyway.

The problem with WindowsXP is that automaticaly reboots when it crashes, instead of showing the blue screen of death (BSOD) which usualy contains some usefull information about why it crashed. You can easily change this behaviour:Right-click "this computer" > "Properties"Go to the "Advanced" tabGo to the "restart and repair settings" (might have a slightly different name, but I'm not using an english version of XP so I'm just guessing what the right translation might be ).Untick the "automaticaly restart the computer" checkboxNext time windows crashes, you get a BSOD that has a code that looks like 0x0DE434DAA, write this down and search it on the internet. The windows logbooks can provide you some usefull information too.Right-click "this computer" > ManageUnder "event viewer" (or logs, or whatever they called it in english), go to the "System Log".Don't be scared if you see tons of items, most of them are useless, see if there are any recent errors.ps. upgrading to SP3 instead of SP2 isn't a bad idea either

Yeah ... like they are going to like it that I start changing the lights at school . Honestly, if you've just spend 1250 euros on a laptop then you expect it to descently work without you rebuilding and reshaping your office.

A while ago I installed openSuse 11.0 on my laptop and I'm actualy very pleased about it, but there is something I'd like to change but I can't seem to find a solution for it. If mylaptop is suspended and the lid is closed, it unsuspend when I open the lid. Now, it's nothing realy bad, but it's something I don't want (because sometimes I just want to put a piece of paper on the keyboard so I won't forget it).So, what file do I need to alter to prevent this from happening ?

What dirt does your glossy screen collect that you have to clean it that often ? My laptop screen only collects dust and that's easy to clean . If fingerprints are the problem then not touching your screen is the solution (I NEVER touch my laptop screen, I hate it when fingerprints, grease or other kinds of dirt are on it ... I keep focusing on the dirty spots which makes it a bit hard to work )

The first thing I did after getting Vista was disabling all the annoying security features that it came with. Seriously, the amount of popups, alerts and messages is this big that you simply click them away without even reading what it's warning you for . I've been using windows (any version) without it's built-in security features for years and I've never, ever had a security problem... the best security solution is a clear mind that knows what it's doing !

wow, what are you trying to do ? Make someone crazy or something ? Maybe you can set the triggers using the mmc (start>run>mmc)?

But that would be a permanent solution, not ? I just can't imagine that someone who've bought a laptop with a non glossy screen is going to add a film to make it glossy. No way that I'm going to make my screen glossy, the colours are maybe less saturated, but at least I can see something on my screen even when I have the brightness at minimum

Indeed very basic, but it's simplicity makes it a good looking site . I would however, reduce the amount of text that you repeat on every page. For example you could place the disclamer in a footer and only use the rest of the text (welcome, note, help and site goals) on the home page.

A very usefull trick to debug sql query is to add 'or die(mysql_error())' after every query you make, this way your script will stop once SQL throws an error and the error will be shown to you. eg. $result = mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error()); Another usefull trick is to echo variables so you can actualy see their values instead of guessing and hoping.

I agree with xboxrulz (except the linspire stuff because I have no experience with that distribution). I've been using openSuse for a while now and I have no complaints about it, it's powerfull, advanced yet rahter easy to use. Of course, don't expect it to fully support your hardware out of the box, you might need to search and experiment a little bit before everything works (I for example couldn't get the hibernation to work on my laptop, but after reading the openSuse Wiki and altering a file, everything worked like a charm ).

You also forgot to mention that Spybot Search&Destroy protects your computer (immunizes) by blocking a lot of hosts that are malicious.

The problem is back ...

I too prefer the matte finish on flatscreens, but unfortunately they are very hard to find, especialy on laptops. I'm realy glad that Dell still offers non-glossy displays for their consumer laptops (business laptops usualy have non-glossy displays, but they are generaly more expensive and don't offer the gimmicks that consumer laptops have). The only downside these matte displays have is that the colours are less saturated than a glossy screen.

I prefer https, even if it slows things down, I realy don't like that my passwords and other personal stuff are sent out in the clear. Even tough nobody might be interested in it, I still think it's a got habbit to check and use security measurements that are available (I always use https when signing in at hotmail too ).

Like vusja said, it's easy to design a Joomla template, but you need to have some HTML and PHP knowledge. The best way to create your first template is to re-used existing templates and change them to your likings, that's how I created my first Joomla template.

They are all nice made, well done . I don't think they are repetitive, but that doesn't matter because you'll never use all the sigs at the same time so (if there would be one) the repetitive characteristics won't exist.

I don't think gmail uses non secure connections when you sign in via https. If check the help about this option you'll see this line: "Always use https" just means that you can't sign in via the normal (not-secured) http protocol, thus forcing you to use the https protocol.
