Could you please be a little more specific? What I *think* you mean (and I could be wrong, if so please correct me) is that you want the contents of http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ to show up on http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/. If this is the case why don't you just use a script to foward portal.php to the other page? There are a bunch of ways to do this (javascript, php, etc). The method I'd recomend is the php version (as not everyone has javascript enabled, and php is serverside). It is really simple. Just make the page a php file, and use this code: <?phpheader( 'Location: http://http://ww38.yoursite.com/new_page.html&%2339; );?> Alternatively you could use an Iframe of the origonal page inside the portal.php page. As far as the Xisto free hosting request form goes, do you mean the one that appears when you click the "Let's Get Started" button on http://ww2.forum500.com/?folio=9POR7JU99 ? If so, that's quite simple to make. If you give me the info you want collected, and the way you want it to be formatted I'd be happy to help you write it.

I concur. Why should something most of the population enjoys at one time or another be concidered a taboo? It's silly. Well, I can lend some of my personal experience (I won't be explicit...but if you think you'll be offended then *gasp* don't read it). I'm a guy, and have experienced multiple ejaculation twice so far in my life--though they were of different forms. In one case they were separated by about twenty minutes (of the same session); while, in the other instance, they happened one right after the other. I'd be kinda wary about trusting most studies on the Internet. Try to make sure that it was peer reviewed, etc. Else people can bend tests and statistics way off track.

I'd assume it is effecting everyone. I haven't been able to log on for the past approximately two days. I assumed the Xisto host was aware of the problems, and was in the process of fixing it...mostly because the errors listed kept on changing <_<Now for a related question: Have our hosting credits been subtracted for those days? Not a really important facet...but I'm just interested.

And that thing is? It's true that some good things do come out of conflicts, but (in my opinion) the atrocities committed by far out weigh them. Wow, that has got to be the stupidest thing I've heard in years (ever since someone told me that homosexuality caused the downfall of the roman empire ). The (Israeli-Lebanon) war isn't between the two entire countries at large -- it is between the Israeli war machine and the Hazballa gorillas. Neither of which hold a majority in their own respective countries. It is the common people, the mothers, fathers, sisters, and brothers, that wind up paying the price of the militants' war. Look at the statistics. Over 90% of the people killed by the Israeli forces have been civilians. It's completely ludicrous. (That's not that say that Hazballa are the "good guys" by any means. They've killed by far less civilians...but that is mostly because they have about a thousandth of the military capability that Israel does). Saying "lets just kill everyone" isn't a real solution. It's just a sick perversion which shows your blatant ignorance of what is going on (not to mention questions whatever claims you can make to the vague term of morality). I'm not in the practice of making personal attacks, and so I'm sorry if what I have said seriously offends you. But what you have proposed is severely *BLEEP*ed up in almost all senses of the word. Holy *BLEEP*, you're Bush's wet dream. Instead of looking at any of the actual evidence surrounding the situation you just fall prey to blind paranoia and subsequent hysteria. What's next? "That person looked at me funny. He was obviously a terrorist, so I shot him." Can't be too far off, not with people like you still around. Hell, the law they enacted in Florida about a year ago was frighteningly similar (it allows the use of deadly force in self defense--even if your own life has not been threatened).

I've seen this type of script before. In my opinion it is kinda useless. I say this mostly because in virtually every browser you can click on the "View" menu and then choose "Page Source" from the list...which will accomplish the exact same thing.As a matter of fact, I don't believe I've ever seen this code deployed on a professional site...usually only on hastily made blogs, etc.I hand code all my pages, and honestly wouldn't really care if someone copied pieces of the code (ignoring php for a moment). Most of the time it is entirely specific to my page, so the amount of effort required to change/contort it into being used in something else would probably be close to just rewriting it from scratch. As they say, "limitation is the highest form of compliment."If you are really concerned about keeping the coding of your site secure then you should either a) encrypt the entire thing and then parse it through a filter (this will greatly increase the cpu usage on your server, as well as requiring more time for the page to load); or purposefully write incredibly convoluted code that no one but yourself can understand (which is a waste of time, and probably won't be nearly as efficient as a correctly written page would be). In other words, I'd say both options are kind of a waste of time.Just my 2cents.

You don't like cheese?!!! Sacrilege!!! Heh, seriously though, I could never give up cheese. It is one of my absolute favorite foods (along with good chocolate, wine/beer, fresh bread, and pasta). You just need to make sure it is something which is good quality (e.g. smoked Gouda, fresh mozzarella, aged parmigiana or ramino, Cabot cheddar, etc, etc, etc) and not disgusting stuff (e.g. yellow American "cheese").

*hug* I'm sorry you're going through this. It took me years to get over the breakup from my first serious relationship (which lasted three years), so I know how tough it can be.The most important thing you can do right now is just to try and take care of yourself. Remember that your friends and family really love you, and that you're not alone. I know it really hurts now, but this too shall pass. Try to do things which will make yourself happy; spend some time with your closest friends. Dealing with the pain itself can be really hard...you need to accept it in order to heal (ignoring it will only make it worse), but try not to dwell on it to the point where you're constantly miserable. Lastly, don't blame yourself. It was his choice to leave, you did nothing to drive him away.I'm going to PM you my email address. I'm here if you need someone to talk to. Or just need someone to listen while you try and let things out.Things will get better, but it's going to take time.Take care of yourself,--Paolo

Just a quick note on this: this hack is now completely irrilavent. The value doesn't even exist on the new versions of firefox. It was just a left over from some much older version (i think around 0.7)...hasn't really done anything in a very long time.

Heh, there's a phrase for that type of lousy coding--job security. ;P

Hey man, I'm glad you found someone you really like, and I hope it goes well for you. I would raise one note of caution though: don't try to be someone that you're not in order to get her. If you do that things might work out in the short term, but are certainly doomed to fail later on. That being said, you seem like a fun guy...so I wouldn't really worry about just acting like yourself. Take her to a few parties. Just have fun, and try not to take the whole thing too seriously (it'll make you freeze up, and it's a turn off for a lot of girls). Keep in mind that you're supposed to be enjoying yourself as well--so don't spend all your time just trying to make her happy. If you're having fun, there is a good possibility that she will be as well (you certainly seemed to hit it off well when you were completely plastered). As for reigniting the passion between you, try taking her on some real dates (dinner, movie, star-gazing...whatever). If you're worried that asking her out will be too awkward then try doing it when you're drunk (just make sure you're sober for the date ). Remember, you don't have to be blatantly obvious about asking her (i.e. "Hey, do you want to go out sometime?"), though that approach works for some people. I'd suggest just asking her about the types of movies/food/etc she likes, and then when you find something that you both enjoy just slip the question into the conversation (i.e. "Yeah, [name of movie] was completely hilarious! Isn't [name of director] coming out with another film soon? We should defiantly catch it in theatres."). When you do it subtly like that there is no feelings of obligation or awkwardness, and she'll be much much more likely to say yes. Once you're actually on the date try not to worry too much, just have a good time and be yourself. The rest should come naturally (if not, then you might not be compatible to begin with). Best of luck man, lemme know how it turns out.

I'd have to disagree with you on that one. Some of the people in his cabniet (Karl Rove anyone?) are extremely intelligant individuals. They just have (in my opinion) very F-ed up priorities. Namely: increases in their own money and power, with complete disregard for the larger good. Yeah, they're both *BLEEP*s. I was a big fan of Dennis Kusinich...only he had absolutely no chance of winning.

When what reaches 99%? When it checks the ram (when you first boot up), or something else? As far as the tweak on this thread goes, it shouldn't do any damage to your drive...it just might not show any improvement.

I'd have to say the computer...though that isn't 100% correct. It'd be more acurate to say that it speeds up the communication between the harddrive and the computer. Oops. I said i'd post back with my finding in a day or two...and that was almost a month ago. My apologies. Anyways, I tried out this hack and at first it seemed to slightly improve the preformace of the harddisk. But it was so minute that I wanted to make sure it wasn't attributed to a psudo-effect. So I benchmarked it (both before and after) with SI Software's Sandra 2005 only to find out that the speeds were exactly the same. So that'd be a no for me...anyone else?

I'd have to strongly disagree with suggestions one and two. Unless, ofcourse, you like head games and drama. But, honestly, if you are engaged then hopefully you're past all that bull*BLEEP*, and in a mature and loving relationship. Suggestion number three, on the other hand, is exactly what you should be doing. Communication is the most importain thing you can do in a relationship. Tell her how you feel, and if she really loves you she'll respect that and not want to cause you more pain.

In my experience, girls who masterbate tend to be more comfortable with their bodies than those who don't. This is especially visable when you're making love to a woman. Those who know how to pleasure themselves are much more aware of what they are looking to get out of the intimate contact--and so can better communicate it to you. As a result, the sex is better for both people (can't speak for other guys, but I won't really enjoy the sex unless my partner is having a wonderful time as well). I'd even go as far to say that one of the main reasons some girls can't reach orgasam is that they arn't comfortable enough with their own bodies, and so can't relax into it (feeling of stress, or guilt are major mood killers).

I'd have to devide my answer into to parts: The academic side, and the developmental/social side. Both, I'd wager to say, are equally importaint.If you goto a really crappy highschool then the academics are probably pretty pour...which is a shame. However there are always *some* good teachers. Seek them out. Get inspired. And, if that fails, learn how to teach yourself--it's the most importaint lesson you will ever learn.As far as the social side goes, that is something that you (in my opinion) really shouldn't give up on. Even if most of the people in your school are clickey shallow ***holes there will always be some fun people to hang out with. You just have to seek them out. Otherwise, no matter what grade you're in, you're not going to have fun.While a GED can be helpful, it still doesn't have as much stock put into it as a real highschool degree. As such, you probably won't get into as good of a college...and you deffinatly won't get as good of a job if you decide not to presue higher education. All in all, I'd say try to stick through it. As far as going to college at 16 goes, I personally think that is a terrible idea. Even if you are intelligent enough to do so, you are hardly mature enough. You won't fit in with everyone else, and you'll miss some of the most fun experiences of your life. School isn't just about learning academics. It is about defining yourself as a person. Finding out what you love in life, and finding friends to share in your adventures. If you only learn the school work then you're kinda missing the point.

(My appologizies...I don't have time to read all the previous posts).One argument is that the rise in problems could be attributed to global "population control." Much in the same way that forest fires, droughts, and famines are part of the cycle of life. Though putting subjective human choices (e.g. the war in iraq) into that equation seems sketchy at best.Another possibility is that we just have a much wider scope of communication/access of information than we ever did before. As such, the same ammount of problems could have always been occouring--we just wouldn't have been aware of it previously.As far as the apocolyptic/end of the world senarioes go...I personally think that is just a load of horse-*bleep*, and that those professing those specific idealiogies are religious wackjobs...then again, that's just my opinion.

Good to see a few people who are articulate, as well has holding fervent beliefs. It seems that so many people fall into the trap of saying "I support (or hate) party/person" without actually discussing any of the issues at hand (that includes so called "nit-picking"). So lets start discussing the real issues. I'll start: The War in Iraq. The violence has only been escalating. Iraq is deteriorating, and only becoming worse and worse for our troops (2549 of who have lost their lives as of this post). I'd venture to say that partially stems from a misconception: that we are fighting against a set group of people, instead of an ideology. Our actions only bolster their numbers. For every insurgent killed, two more rise up to take their place. Every time Iraqi civilians get killed, families get destroyed, or some new atrocity comes to light it changes people over. What we need to do instead is address the reasons why these people are willing to fight, to die, against us. To name a few: Between 39116 and 43568 Iraqi civilians have been killed as of this post. Paul Bremer (and the CPA) basically sold off their entire economy. We destroyed their infrastructure (past what decades of sanctions and drawn out bombing campaigns had already done). We have created numerous permanent bases in Iraq. ...And that's just one topic. Lets get a good, respectful, and articulate debate going.

JasperIk: I've been around girls talking about sex, masturbation and the like. It's really not rare; especially if there is a large group of them.Anyways, I'd deffinatly agree that reglion is one of the sources of that stupid double-standard. You could also look at it from an evolutional standpoint: A woman carries her baby for a peroid of 9 months. Because of the time and energy invested, it behooves her to find a good mate. Men, on the other-hand, can impregnate many women within a short ammount of time; which alows them to spread their genes more quickly.

I'm going to write out the basic code for you in a barebones example. The first version uses two html files, and the second one uses a html file coupled with a text file. One importain thing though: you can't use any html in the text file (unless you use php or something to parse it in). So if you want to do formatting, links, or pictures use the first version. 1) Main Page: <html><body bgcolor=#000000 text=#ffffff>Content above the iframe.<br><table bgcolor=#05006F><tr><td><iframe src="frame.html" allowtransparency="true">Sorry, your browser doesn't support frames.Please get an updated one, like <a href="mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/"></td></tr></table>Content below the iframe.</body></html>Frame Page: <html><body style="background-color: transparent;" text=#ffffff><b>Inside the iframe.</b></body></html> 2) Main Page: <html><body bgcolor=#000000 text=#ffffff>Content above the iframe.<br><table bgcolor=#05006F><tr><td><iframe src="frame.txt" allowtransparency="true">Sorry, your browser doesn't support frames.Please get an updated one, like <a href="www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/"></td></tr></table>Content below the iframe.</body></html>Frame Text File: Inside the iframe.Hope that was more understandable.

I've thought about it alot and realized that while affermative action has the right spirit, it's rather misdirected. I'd say a much better aproach would be to finiance better intercity and black schools--that way everyone is on a fair playing field and it's what the individual makes of it. It would also help out those who only finished highschool be better prepared.

I pretty much gave you all the code needed (i didn't specifiy the dementions of the iframe because i don't know what you need), but if you want help implimenting it then i need to see the html on your page. Either post your html here, or just put the page online and give me a link. As far as linking the iframe to a text file, that will probably work but i'm not 100% sure that the background will be transparent (did a quick check and it worked correctly in firefox...but that might not hold true for other browsers). If that doesn't work you would just use an html file instead of a text file, and then include the transparency option.

I'm pretty sure I understand what you're looking for.What I'd suggest doing is using an IFrame for the scrolling textbox. You mentioned that you use dreamweaver...unfortunatly i don't have that, but I can tell you how to do it by hand. All we do is take the normal iframe syntax and tack on the "allowtransparency" variable. It'll look something like this:<iframe src="ScrollBox.html" allowtransparency="true">Sorry, your browser can't handle iframes...GET a better one!!!</iframe>Once you're done with that you need to go into the page displayed by the iframe (in this case ScrollBox.html) and add in the transparency style to the body tag, which'll look something like this:<body style="background-color: transparent;">That should pretty much do it. If you don't want the info in the box to always stay the same you could pull it out of a text file and dynamicly write it in with php.Anyways, I hope this was helpful. Feel free to ask any other questions you may have.

How'd that go..."90 percent of all young adults admit to masterbating. And the other 10 percent are liars." :)Seriously though, masterbation is a good thing. Relieves stress, gives you pleasure, and is an alternative for people who arn't ready or don't want to have sex yet. There's only a risidual taboo about it because of our puritian heiritage.

Every time the fourth of July rolls around I can't help but be reminded of the words of Frederick Douglass's most famous speech. For those of you who don't know, Douglass (a former slave) was one of the most intelligent, outspoken, and articulate abolitionists of his time. Anyways, I just felt like sharing. I'd love to hear any responses that you may have.
