  1. Well if you can't find anything that you can really make a lengthy reply, try to find something that you can create a topic on. You can write a tutorial which is big credits if it's a long one. There is always news that you can find and summarize for people to read. There is really endless possibilities. Sometimes a post requires just a little bit of research. It is expected every once in a while to have a few short posts, but making lengthy ones will come easy in time. Just keep trying to expand on things, like why do you like something? Or if you have a disagreement with someone else said put what you think is right.


    Thanks Buddy! I'll really try to post quality posts.. just be on the lookout for! :lol:

    P.S. Now that's another post ! hehe

  2. How would I go about making PHP check if a username is already registered? Thanks.


    Yeah! Be more specific! Tell us where your usernames are stored?

    If they are stored in a database, you'll need to query your tables for the said username and if there is a result, then we can say that the username exists!

  3. I really like thios forum and I am trying my level best to participate but the problem is that if I say just a Yes or a No or Hmmm.. , I'm scared it might be considered spamming. I try to write something to a topic, and i end up with just a two or three liner.Pray guys that my writing skill increases ...coz I really can't do without hosting.. and I really can't pay for hosting :lol:Ciao! Guys!


  4. Yeah, I managed to set my mail to google hosted too.I had lots of trouble understanding the whole concept though.Where I registered my domain name, they offered Advanced DNS setting for a cost. I bought the service but later I found out that the nameservers have to be set to their own which I need to set to some other free space provider. So I lost a bit of money there.Next, after realsing that MX setting is to be done by where the ns is set to (i.e. space provider). I found out that my space host (Awardspace.com) have blocked the mail for the free accounts and you needed to buy their email hosting packs. :lol: I left the Idea again.My previous host buildtolearn.com suffered a crash for which i could not use that space.I joined Xisto with a hope that I would get hosted but NO I was denied!!And I am here for the same reason (hosting requirement).. and that's my sad story which started out with Google Hosted Service :(P.S. My old server is back and I have configured google hosted finally. But I am unsure of my host's stability. :(


  5. if you are talking about localhost on your computer, you can use mysql administrator if working with mysql.


    Yeah! First Install MySql and then start winmysqladmin from Strat Menu or go to c:\mysql\bin\winmysqladmin.exe. Its quite a good GUI for creating database and tables.

    It'll save you the hassle of installing Apache with php enabled.
