Ubuntu is awesome dude! Go for it! I have been using it for past 4 years!

Check out the following code: <?php$password = "PASSWORD"; // Any password$crypt = md5($password); // You will get a md5 hash of your supplied string/* * You can insert the data in to table and check with the entered password during login */?> md5() returns a 32 character long string which is always unique and same for the supplied argument. If you need more help the post Notice from rvalkass: Any code you post must be placed in CODE tags.

Well if you really want to design those sexy looking websites on the net like those who have a very nice and descent looking design. Then here is the secret how do they do that: THEY ALL ARE DESIGNED USING TABLES Beside many other factors in a web design tables play a major role in a site's design. They are the base of every good design. If you look at the source code at any good professional looking web site you will find out following things there: *) A nice but yet a very complex table design *) Use of CSS *) Nice looking graphics All of above point play a key role in a site's design. STEP I: I would suggest that you must play around with tables and master them. 'cause the good looking graphics are of no use unless they look really good. You can learn the basics from any HTML tutorial. For practicing you can use Frontpage or any other similar application. Try to make some layouts. Don't get into the presentation part like colors etc. they will come next, First master the basics. STEP II: Then learn CSS programming. Now days CSS is the most popular tool, you can say, for designing. It is used to define properties for various items like tables, link etc. You can really define the style for every thing. The major advantage of CSS which I see is that: By using CSS you can concentrate on the building block i.e. tables. Also you don't have to define style for every thing just add and id or class to it's property. For learning CSS you can use tutorials and if you don't want to hand code the things you can use a CSS authoring tool like Simple CSS(Google for it). STEP II: Then come to the graphics part. Design some great looking graphics. Use them in the tables to make your site look professional. For learning how to design those great effects and icons try out Internet. There are so many websites that can teach you the real stuff :XD: Always try to look for web graphics section as it always contains some great tutorials. This section is usually included in all the sites. REMEMBER: Always learn and create things in a step by step manner. If you follow this simple rule you will always end up with a masterpiece. Also, Try to hand code things rather than using the GUI tools. They always lead you to trouble. Moreover you'll have more grip of your site's design in your hands if you do hand coding. What good is the work if there's no hard work involved in it Best of Luck!

Sure I'll check it out!

I think for serious web designing one should consider testing the final product on every possible platform. THerefore one should design keeping n mind the framework of every popular browser. Wether it's IE or FF. You should test it on every explorer. You can never be sure that your site will alwys be viewed on IE or FF. every one can browse your site with his fav. explorer.P.S I know some geeks in my circle who use lynx for browsing :XD: And I must tell you you can extract many crucial parts of a site with it

Well I think that you should also define the border size for each class you want to use as a box. May be that can help. Second thing you can do is try renaming it as n id rather than a class. I would like to rewiev the source code of your file. I can really help after that only! rest you will recieve guesses from every body!I would recommend you to use "simplecss" for designing .css files. it's free and very small in size. Google for it.

upload an .htaccess file.

Well at first you should make sure that you are designing css according to w3c standards. Your css if designed acc. to standards then it should wokr both in IE and Firefox. You can always validate your css online at http://www.w3c.com/. Find out the problems there and correct thenm accordingly. General problems that occurs are with the type of property defined like id or a class. Double check the code you may have missplled it. Have you used '.' symbole for custom classes? This could also be a problem. And yes always design in a step by step manner. Define one property and check it on all browsers. This makes debugging very very easy. If you still having problems then do as.

Don't you people think that creating a login script like the one mentioned with only plain php sessions can invite a lot of security related troubles. php.net themselves say that if you are going to use sessions then be sure to implement some extra security measures as they can compromise security you can find the page here: PHP Sessions If someone is using it for just testing or learning then its ok to use them as is, but if you are planningfor a site that requires security like e-commerce website then you must apply some more securities measures to it. Like by encrypting the data etc.

Yeah it's true that they have changed a bad way! I don't know why is this?May be that they want to earn money also. I don't say that they have no right for earning money. But they should have done it in a decent manner. They always force some new rules.

Hi there! I am also a former 110mb.com user. I also left them as they hardly keep any thing free now. THey are a good host but I think they are now shifting to be a paid hosting site now. though they are doing it slowly. It seems that they are upgrading the whole system but in a very unclean manner. every time you visite there site you will surely find a message that some box is down for some time. this is very bad. If you are looking for some free host then you have come to the right place. Xisto is up for two years and just increasing there features in the list. you will just have to be active in the forums. and the good news is that it's based on the credit system. so you can also go offline from the board for some time. plus you can also go for qupis.com they are also a part of this site. but they display a ad at the bottom of your page. but they don't require forum activity.

Oooohh! It's getting hot everyday :XD:I would say that in a general scenario (that I see from my peosonal point of view) a programmer would release a software as a open source if*) He has a great Idea*) He is not bale to handle the program development all alone may be due to it's complexity!*) He is a rookie and don't create much useful programmes but want others to review them for him..

Hackers and Crackers are two different terms. Why don't you people understand. Why you always blame Hackers if something gets wrong.

Well My story with ubuntu 7.04 goes like this! Yesterday I recieved courier Package from shipit.ubuntu.com. It contained the CD of Ubuntu 7.04 latest release. I have been a Ubuntu user from past three years now. I use Ubuntu more than MS Windows. Oh gosh! I was so happy You people can't even imagine. I was so excited to install it that I switched off my computer directly without shutting it properly. Then at last I installed it. Things that flated me out: * For the first time I was seeing more resolution options to select from. * The new feature like desktop effects really won my heart. * THe package manager was more user friendly. * Next best thing or update you can say I noted the way Ubuntu reports for the missing packages. When I tried to play .mp3 file in the media player, which almost every one of us do usually :XD:, I was so surprised to see how Ubuntu told me that there are some missing packages which are needed to be downloaded in order to play the mp3 file. It did same for every unkown file ( for ubuntu ) that I tried to play from mp3 to avi, wmv etc. It was also good to see that It downloaded those packages automatically fomr the repository and I was able to watch DVD's also. Before this I used to install mplayer for playing media. I never felt so proud before about using Linux as my main OS.

My sugestion1) Boot your computer from Wnidows XP Bootable Disk.2) When Win XP setup asks you where to install the XP. Delete all the partitions that exist. Yeah I know every thing will be lost but thats what you want!3) Then create a new partition of the size you want. Don't create any more partitons.4) Select it to install Win XP on it.5) Then Setup will ask you to format the drive. Select NTFS filesystem and do a full format. [NOT QUICK FORMAT].6) Wait till Windows gets installed on it.7) Boot into Windows. You would be able to see the default view of Windows (just wanted to be lil' geeky!).8) If every things done the way told you will not be able to access the rest of the drive which is not formatted beside C:9) Install an Antiviru that you trust.10) Open up Computer management console and repartition the rest of the left free space.11) Make sure you do a full format on every newly created drive.12) Done!Your computer will be free from any other files beside your win XP's and antivirus."I HOLD NO RESPONSIBILTY IF YOU F**K UP YOUR SYSTEM" <-- This is nessecary

I am still having troubles I'll be uploading the site pretty soon may be a week or two!

Surely Ubuntu is the best. I am also a ubuntu user. I rarely use windows. Yeah that's true!I thought mot many people will be aware of ubuntu but I can see there are so many people in the gang!Acc. to me Fedora and redhat are most widelly used Linux Distros cause they are noot debian based and most of the packages are available as .rpm package. But I like Ubuntu! It rocks!

Where is the XOOPS? You should have included it in your list. It's second most popular CMS on the Net. I also use it. The thing that I like the most in it is that it is OOP based. XOOPS Homepage! Try it also! You people will love it!

Are we Real? : Think About it!

The more geeky way of installing cursors without the software support is creating your own .ini installation file. I found this file on http://www.deviantart.com/.

I would recommend you Dual Nvidia 8800GTX in SLIBut make sure that your motherboard supports the SLI feature... Moreover you would be requiring two GFX cards to unleash the full power of SLI tech.

Don't you think that you must be more specific with the topic
