  1. Your password has been reset. Check your PM. If you still have problems, let me know.
  2. Your username cannot be reset - but your password CAN... Do something - PM me with whatever new password you want, and I'll reset your hosting account to that.
  3. Now MS has their own version of Add-Ons out for IE6 -IE7 Beta 2 in a desperate attempt to catch up with the extension fever of the mozilla genre of browsers. They've set up a site called Add-Ons for Internet Explorer which showcases both free and commercial varieties. LOL
  4. Did you know - that minor wounds and even deep gashes can be temporarily sealed up if you have some superglue handy ? Yep - it's true!! Superglue's a really effective way of immediately stopping bleeding. Works even better that bandaid strips. All you need to do it let it drip into your wound and harden
  5. You EVIL EVIL scientist. I'm going to report you to the Hamster Rights Organization for forcing those poor things into slave labour all day in those stuffy little boxes
  6. Biatttttccccccccch You beat me to it by a hair's breadth.. Just yesterday I bought a new 160GB SATA2 Seagate Barracuda - bringing up my total to 320GB .. Hmmm.. I gotta make up for that 40GB shotfall soon BTW, I think I still have you wiped clean in the RAM front with a whopping 1.5 Gigs DDR2
  7. Welcome aboard Samuel. Enjoy your stay with us here
  8. ????[/tab]In a giant leap from the previous industry maximum of 500GB - Seagate has come up with a new Barracuda with a whopping 750Gigs of storage - a solid 50% increase over the earlier mark, setting an all time record. This is supposed to be the biggest and fastest jump in the past 50-years of history of the storage industry. ????This drive is primarily intended for internal use in desktop systems and will be launched this Wednesday. The external variety is soon to follow sometime next week. [tab]Such rapid development comes in the light of a new technology called Perpendicular Recording that allows the manufacturers to boost the data density of disks by vertical alignment of data bits rather than the old standard horizontal alignment. This technology is being employed by both Seagate and it's rival Hitachi Global Storage Technologies - leading to the rapid deployment of larger and larger hard drives while maintaining reliability to the utmost.

  9. Notice the part of code I've hightlighted here.. See when you execute this statement - $today = date("F j, Y, g:i a");, PHP simply extracts the current date/time and stores it in a variable called $today and does nothing else. You need to include a statement like echo that will actually PRINT this out on the webpage. So your code should look like: <?php $today = date("F j, Y, g:i a"); echo $today;?> That should do the trick Any more questions feel free to drop a line.. Regards, m^e
  10. See that T_VARIABLE error is usually produced due to mismatched quotation marks.. single or double quotes - which i don't find in here. But there's one thing you've to take note. The CONFIG file is to solely act as a configuration variable container. There shouldn't be any other code like the MySQL connection code you've included. This is a standard design model. For example - your config.php should only look like: <?php$username = "username";$password = "password";$database = "database";$server = "localhost";?> And then in another file - which does the actual MySQL connection and data transactions, you have to INCLUDE the config file, so these variables become available... Say your file is login.php <?phpmysql_connect ( $server, $username, $password ) or die ( mysql_error() );mysql_connect_db ( $database ) or die ( mysql error() );?> BTW - you've got some weird stuff going on.. For example.. when you start your code block with the <?php statement, you've put a SPACE between the ? and php word. That might be the cause of your error. Also in your mysql_connect and mysql_connect_db statements you've got a whole bunch of weird paranthesis going on - WHAT ARE THEY FOR ?? You're supposed to use ONLY the rounded paranthesis.. i.e. ( and ) ... !! How come the {} and [] ??
  11. Hi wawanp86, [tab][/tab]You're advised to read our Frequently Asked Question(s) before making such queries - as we've already answered all such common querries in our FAQs section. In case you don't get a satisfactory answer to your query after going through our FAQs, you're more than welcome to make a post and ask for further clarification. But make sure you read and understand our FAQs well. Regards, m^e
  12. Here you go --> What Is 'www1'?. Read this thread.. Here I've discussed in quite a bit of details how the whole www1...wwwX concept works. Go through all the posts in that thread and it'll help you clear up the cloud
  13. Hi nini,[tab][/tab]Do you mind taking snapshots (pictures) of every step you described here and then paste them alongwith each step in your tutorial? That helps a whole lot when readers are going through a graphics tutorial. Without illustrations people have no way of knowing what the final effect will be - and will more often refrain from giving it even a single shot.
  14. Not really You guys would pop your eyes if you saw my partitioning.80GB Seagate SATA ST380817AS 4GB - WinXP 20GB - Programs Files and My Documents 20GB - Software Development Tools / Project Workspace 10GB - Graphics / Web Development Tools & Workspace 10GB - Backups 12GB - Dowloads Stash And another, 80GB Seagate IDE ST340018A 70GB - Dedicated entirely to my music collection 06GB - For incoming music (downloads) I go crazy if there are too many folders in one drive. This allows for fast cleaner housekeeping - and I NEVER loose any data/downloads/backups, in case I've to reinstall windows. Everything's safely stashed away on other partitions.. I never have the patience of hunting among millions of folders - thus I came up with such an organization. Also, if you notice, my My Documents is located on a different partition that Windows. This too, lets me reformat my OS partition without even thinking twice, coz all my important stuff are elsewhere. That's the reason of having Program Files on a separate partition too - you don't loose out on the program settings when you reinstall all your appz. As for my massive music collection - which I can't live without - I've got a whole HDD dedicated to it Even for Linux - for home use, a single partition is fine. But when you're talking enterprise level servers, this allocation scheme is deemed totally worthless. For each of /etc, /usr, /home, /boot, /tmp, /var etc - you've to create a separate partition and mount that folder in it. Take it from me - thats the one and only way a corporate server is setup. Imagine suffering a nasty crash (somehow) - and having to reformat your boot partition.. What would happen to ALL THE USER FILES in the [/b]/home[/b] folder ?? You've to go for a very lengthy backup-reinstall os-restore cycle or else you loose out on all those files stashed by the users on your network. But if they're on a separate partition, you simply reformat /boot without thinking twice and reinstall the core OS files I learnt this while working on my university network.. the Asst. Sys Admin was a cool guy and taught me a whole bunch of the tricks of the trade.. These are simple foresight, which makes your future life a hell lot easier. The initial setup is a *****, but who cares !!!
  15. Not really - you don't start loosing points till you've actually got a hosting account. Till then your hosting credits counter doesn't start ticking - it only accumulates points from your posts. Will try and clear the backlog today
  16. For Gods sake, try and provide SOME ORIGINAL INPUT ON YOUR OWN PART. I'm getting tired of warning you and deleting such posts. Don't you have any goddamned opinion on anything on your own? Or do you simply specialize is posting quoted material from other sites?
  17. hahhaahaha.. I'm sorry I can't help but laugh like a mad cow That was rather pathetic, me-here.. as Aditya pointed out. An alternative to using echo off is to prefix every line in the batch file with an @ symbol. It works the same as echo off. Moreover - if you execute this file WHILE you're booted into Windows, there's NO WAY you can delete the Windows directory. Anything above Win98, puts a LOCK on the C:\WINDOWS folder once booted up. You cannot even use Windows Explorer to delete this directory. Only with that inanely stupid Win98, you could delete the WINDOWS folder - but that too would abort midway once it came upon certain locked .dlls and .exes. But by then the damage would be done - at least partially. As far as Linux is considered, this method is absolutely worthless.. a normal user won't even have sufficient privileges to execute a similar script on the root folder.
  18. Great post. Very informative Keep up the good work. Maybe you can carry on further with a tutorial series and go a bit deeper into this subject.
  19. Yeep - not only a mic with excellent pickup, you also need a soundproof room with no ambient noise pilfering in. Lie detection based on voice-pitch modulation isn't an easy task and moreover, it can be fooled easily by someone with a little experience. More often its found that compulsive liars (who in fact totally believe in the stuff they say) come out in flying colors through this.
  20. Yep - I know what you mean. Xisto should be a good start-off that way, i.e. to establish your web-presence. But a lot of members (specially those with very busy schedules) find it a little difficulty to keep up with the posting requirements. For them we've an alternative - to switch over to our parent company, Xisto, which offers very cheap and quality paid hosting (with all the features you get here plus more).. The paid hosting is offered under the name of Xisto - Web Hosting and the site can be found here: https://xisto.com/ The plans start for as low as $3.33 per month..
  21. Hi cherri,[tab][/tab]First of all you need to specify which database software you want to use to maintain your database.. Secondly - you cannot just create a database out of thin air without knowing what data it is going to contain. The tables and fields have to be set up accordingly.You need to post further details about your database in order to get any decent help.
  22. Hi nitrus - once you get your hosting space, you're free to put up any kind of Ads on your own pages (including Adsense) - as long as your site content does not violate any of our Terms Of Service .. But before that you need to make adequate posts and get the required amount of credits in order to get hosting.. That's your first step All the best.
  23. Hi Flick - Welcome to Xisto Your third question first - NO we do not offer domain registration services - free or paid.
