  1. If you use Outlook Express as your email, client you can automatically forward your mail to your local computer.Just go to Tools > Accounts and set it up as your would any other email account.You will still need to move your email to a local folder on your machine if you want to save very much of it.
  2. Just a found a PhotoShop tutorial site that is new to me. It's in a forum version and has a lot of really interesting tutorials. I'm always looking to expand my Photoshop skills. If you'd like to check it out visit the forum.
  3. Hey Guys, Coming up April 5th is a special day for web standards. Dustin Diaz, who's blog about web standards I regularly read, is promoting everyone to take their CSS off their site for one day. What's the idea? As you probably know, there are many browsers that are not CSS compliant or at least don't read CSS the same as others. By completely removing your CSS you'll get a quick head's up about just how accessible and attractive your site is. Go and sign up. It'll be fun. It'll bring some unexpected traffic to your site. And, you just may learn something!!
  4. I guess I didn't understand what was meant when you were looking for examples. Good job, Quatrux!When my SSI (server side includes) menues on my old site didn't show up just now when I uploaded it to my new ASTAHosting site, I was reminded of another great use for the .htaccess file.SSI will only show on a page that has the .shtml extension UNLESS you add the following lines of code to your .htaccess file:AddHandler server-parsed .htmlAddHandler server-parsed .htmAddHandler server-parsed .shtmlActually, you don't need all of them just to handle SSI but I always add them because then all HTML page extensions are covered and show up when added to your site.
  5. Well, it's still the same story with AWStats this morning but maybe I'm jumping the gun. I'll give it a day or so and see if it straightens itself out unless someone has a clue what the error message means.
  6. Hi Guys, New to hosting here and SO HAPPY especially to see that you have AWStats. Had them at my old host and they are terrific! Can't believe how many features are offered here for FREE hosting However, I didn't have to configure my AWSTATS at my old host so I don't know how. When I try to access the stats, I get the following error message: What do I need to do to use this wonderful tool on my site?
  7. Unfortunately, you did not give us the keyword that you optimized your site for nor the url of your site.It is not difficult to get to the top of Google for obscure or little used keywords. However, if you want to stay at the top, even for those keywords, you had better offer your visitors some quality content.Google has also become very aware of "link-farm" links and are rapidly weeding those sites for their results and sometimes banning the sites entirely. It's true that relavant links do count and help your placement in all search engines but there is some talk that too many links too fast will actually hurt your placement on Google.
  8. My computer repair guy ordered a bunch of these cd's from ubuntu and now gives them away to anyone he can talk into trying Linux. He gave me both the Install CD and the Live CD so I could try it without installing it. I tried it and I love it! I'm going to do a dual boot install this week and I'll bet I'm a Linux convert by the end of the month!
  9. If you rename the ftvpg1.html to index.html I believe it will show up. If it does not, you will need to turn your index back on for that folder.
  10. I worked at one time for an endodontist and this is the program that we started with: Dental Software It is still relatively inexpensive ($99USD) and includes the source code so it is easy to modify. The program is based on MS-Access but could easily be converted to another database system if you desired. I don't know what changes have been done to the software in the past 4 years or so but I did have to modify it significantly for the practice that I worked at. I added several other tables to the database and was creating an online appointment interface when I changed jobs. If you don't have experience with databases, it may be easier for you to modify this program than to start out with nothing. You will be able to easily see how the different table and screen interfaces are created and inter-relate. If you want to have an online interface for your patients to make their own appointments I would suggest converting it to MySql as it is an easy interface to learn and there is a lot of free support available online.
  11. I recently updated Firefox, my favorite browser. Now, it will not install the flash player. Didn't notice if it was when Adobe picked up Macromedia or if it's the Firefox update.Anyone else having similar problems?
  12. I started learning programming with Python simply because it came installed on my computer. It is a fairly easy programming language to learn and you can easily pick up another language from there. I also found an excellent tutorial for Python when I was learning it and that really helped. There are tutorials for about any language you choose to learn available free online. Here is the Python tutorial that I think highly of: http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/
  13. Thanks abundantly!!The boot.ini file was the problem although not quite one of those that you suggested but you got me looking in the right direction. Your assistance is much appreciated by the old grandma.
