  1. Yah.. or maybe a dual core 2 system. One thing I've give up on norton is their resource intensity on system. For AVG, used it for a few months and felt that it doesn't take up as much resources as for those commercials norton anti-virus. Pretty good on detecting Trojans and virus. Just that after using it, got recommended on some other anti-virus that do much more. But on an overall, its a good anti-virus consider its free to use. Worth a try if anyone asked. Cheers
  2. Anyway just some addons from what I've mentioned earlier on. Agreeded that self code of HTML is better and cleaner. But just a point to make. I personally feel that by using a WYSIWYG editor can be useful only for designing web pages. I've experience before self coding and design at the same time. It turns up to be quite UGLY as being creative and logical at the same time. So if I'm into the designing mode, I would just use those WYSIWYG editor for doing purely designing. After that, self code that design using text editor. That is my way. Anyone got better method of doing, let me know.
  3. I would personally feel this would be the best device ever made if its possible. But teleport further then just around the neighborhood. Imagine overseas? From country to country. state to state. That will be awesome. Anyway I've read some articles regarding teleportation somewhere in the internet and they actually did a trial on it. Moving molecules of a rat from one vacuum to another. But somehow it didn't suceed. Can't really remember where I read that from. Anyone read that articles?
  4. What is the error message? If you can provide some error that you saw on screen, it will easier to narrow down the root cause.
  5. You are being modest. With 800++ posting here, you should have more than enough credits for that free domain name.
  6. I think this tool is like Dreamweaver or Frontpage. Those kind of WYSIWYG web site editor. Those editors are easy to use with drag and drop function and for those of us that don't want to deal with HTML codes. But personally I don't really like those kind of editor. They generate too much unwanted codes for you and sometimes they are not fully customized . So still prefer to stick to text editor for editing.
  7. LOL.. you might be right. If those geeks stay indoor the whole day, they definitely need something like this.
  8. Actually looking at your Form, its quite weird. Having Firstname as username and Lastname as password. But anyway, just take assume that you want it to be like this. So the question is you want to allow the user to login after registration?? Below will be an example of a login script. Here is a minor modification to your registration form. This will be something like login.php for the user to enter their data. <html><body><form action="access.php" method="post">Username: <input type="text" name="username" />Password: <input type="text" name="password" /><input type="submit" /></form></body></html> So after Submit button is click, it will be send to access.php. The codes below will be used to verify the user. <?phpsession_start();$con = mysql_connect("localhost","autobot","abc123");if (!$con){die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());}mysql_select_db("my_db", $con);$sql="SELECT * FROM person where username = '$_POST[username]' and password = '$_POST[password]'";$result = mysql_query($sql);if ($result == 0){die('Error: ' . mysql_error());}echo "Login Success";$_SESSION[âuserâ] = $result;mysql_close($con)?> The above is just an example of login. You can use that session on every page by calling $_SESSION[âuserâ]. There's a lot better ones out there and of course you can use those for free. If you want more security, you can use hashing or security id for accessing pages. Hope this help a bit. Cheers
  9. Most of the replies seem to favor Google. But I Personally prefer Yahoo with all those movies reviews and news along the way. Sometimes if I don't really have stuff to search, I still can find some entertainment from yahoo site itself. But technically, Google search is better in speed and return relevant results. Currently think google have this iGoogle thing. Able to add news and weather stuff on ur main search page. So who knows, I might change my preferences to iGoogle in the future.
  10. Looks like a good solution if someone wants to get rid of those insects. But does this really works? Hmm.. Anyway the spider in the clip looks fake when they use the tool to capture it. First letting it crawl around, the next moment, they used that tool to catch a stationary spider. Nah.. should be real.. But honestly, there's a lot of such innovation stuff around.
  11. Wow.. really thought of getting a domain name for this hosting. But for now, I don't have to. Just need to really contribute to this forum and a free domain name for 250 credits (although quite hard to reach ). Cool OpaQue. Thanks a lot for this great offer.
  12. That's not too bad actually. I've a torch that need to shake 60 seconds for 5 mins for light initially. But now even if I shake it for 5 mins, it can't even give me 60 seconds of light. Not good.. I think solar-rechargable batteries are more useful.
  13. Firstly, maybe you could point out what is the error you are getting. From these codes below, <form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="fileupload.php?op=up&user=<?php echo($user); ?>&fid=<?php echo($fid); ?>" method="POST"><input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="100000000" />Choose a file to upload:<input name="uploaded" type="file" id="uploaded" /><input type="submit" value="Upload File" /></form> It seems to be alright. Of course I assume that the variable $user and $fid is declared somewhere. Secondly, as for the codes that really does the uploading, if ($op == "up"){$target = "uploads/";$target = $target . basename($_FILES['uploaded']['name']);echo($target);if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES['uploaded']['tmp_name'], $target)){echo("The file ") . basename ($_FILES['uploadedfile']['name']). "has been uploaded!";$filesize = $uploaded_size;$sql = mysql_query("UPDATE tbl_files SET filesize='$filesize' WHERE fileid='$fid'");}else {echo ("Sorry, there was a problem uploading your file.");}} If you are going to upload to folder uploads/, then you need to allow permission to write to that folder. Do a chmod for that folder. Did an upload once and found out that its due to permission, it prevent any files from writing to that directory. And of course before all this, you need to mkdir that directory. There's once I encounter blank page after uploading the files. It didn't show any errors and just blank. This can be caused by trying to upload a huge filesize. If you are running this on localhost, then it should be fine. But if you want to upload a huge file to the server (eg. web hosting), you will need to set the memory limit in the php setup configuration to a higher value. That you can contact the administrator of the web hosting. However, there's another alternative to this approach. You can set the .htaccess file as well <FilesMatch "\.(php|html?)$"> php_value memory_limit 32M</FilesMatch> Put the above line to your .htaccess at the root. This method solve for me. By the way, these are all the problem I encounter for uploading a file. If you encounter the same problem, this might help abit. If not, tell us your error in details. What did you do that got the error and what is the error message. Cheers
  14. KDE is faster? Current KDE is faster? I used KDE and Gnome previosly, think it was a year back and Gnome is faster, that's how I feel. KDE has more graphics compare to Gnome. Of course if you are using widgets, then KDE is a lot better. So which distro you using for KDE?
  15. Agreeded on the power of GUI. Really simplified by dragging and dropping to whichever folder. And what's more current FTP application are able connect a few host at one goal. Comparing with those in years back, every command need to be memorized and setting the mode of transfer. By the way, FTP client will be the way to go comparing with File Manager. Massive uploads, drag and drop, structuring of folders at one goal. If that's the task you want to achieve, then use a FTP client. FileZilla is pretty good and what's more, its open source (constant upgrading) File Managing is something like an extra features to use. If you are always out, then File Manager might be the chose for you. Accessing it anyway without the need of installation is definitely a pro for this. However there's no massive upload and ... etc. So its rather what kind of task suit what kind of application. Just some thoughts. Cheers
  16. I would really love to have one of this baby to store all my movies and songs in there. However, looking at the price, not at the moment. Have a 120 GB 2.5' external HDD and always carry it around. Its so portable and able to store so much. So I criteria, the price must be reasonable and must be portable. Not those 3.5' HDD. Would get one if these 2 criteria are met.
  17. LOL.. totally agreeded with you x 2. Initially it was quite cool function when I first started using Vista. But it prompt you too often. So often that I totally got irritated. XP is still my choice for now if talking about Windows.
  18. Yeah, most of these sites are scams except a few I've heard of do actually pay out. But those are minority. https://www.globaltestmarket.com/
  19. I think in my opinion, those website that promote Surf for Cash, How to make $xx,xxx in 3 days.. http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ are the most pathetic web sites on the internet. Why? Someone sent an email with those links and I tried clicking on it. Never did I realize that more popups windows and prompt for installation of those ActiveX. Even when I tried to close those popups, more just kept coming up till i got a 'blue screen'. Think they have some script that does, If 'close windows' then 'open 10 more windows'.
  20. Tested both for awhile. Used AVG Free edition just after converting from Norton and quite like it. (Not only its free) It's quite lightweight and has a powerful scanning engine where after converting from Norton, it found other trojan that Norton didn't detect. Daily auto updates of virus database. However after used Avast, Found out that its even better. Has 7 different specific types of protection where I could tune. Normally would want to set the highest protection for email and I could specifically set for that. Cheers
  21. SLAX for me. I don't use alot of Live CD. Just a few of them. Normally would use those full DVD version like SUSE and Fedora and customize to what I need. Anyway why do I prefer SLAX is the GUI and packages comes with it. It contain most of what I need. So little customization.
  22. LOL. If that kind of things do happen, I will be the first to try it out. Something like WOW.
  23. Previously in 2005, it was 0.5.6. However in 2007 now, its version 0.6.4. If you like to know more, you can go here to view the documentation.
