I don't think a keyboard uses a COM port anymore. COM port is pretty obsolete already. If your device uses a COM port, then it should come with a driver. Simply install the driver and your device will be recognised on the COM port. After that, data will be able to transfer successfully, even in your games.

They use an email server, obviously. PHP, or any other server side scripts are used to process and inteprate commands from the user, such as getting the email address, subjects and the content of the email. MySQL, or any other database software, are simply to keep a record of all it's members of the email service, just like keep your member information, password and userID in the Hotmail or Gmail database. You too, can make your own email server with simple server software. However, because it is simple, most email servers might block emails sent from your server or throw your messages into the Junk folder. I've tried while Hotmail didn't receive the message, and Gmail throws it as a Spam mail. Basically, I think, that your server is not recognised by the email industry list, such that many email providers used that to prevent anonymous emails that could be potential spam or junk mail. Anyway, just to let you have a clearer picture of how email servers work, download a email server program and install to your computer to try that out. Practical lessons are always better than theory, so do some hands on yourself.. Step 1 Here are some email servers that I use. I use least 2 servers, multi-thread together before. To do it, you would have to read on their documents. http://www.sendmail.com/sm/open_source/ http://www.mailenable.com/ http://www.argosoft.com/rootpages/MailServerNet/Default.aspx Step 2 Download the PHP scripts to send your email from a webpage. This is a very common PHP script which you can get support almost anywhere, even here in Xisto. http://phpmailer.worxware.com/ http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ (Guide to PHPMailer) Step 3 Remember to change the server variable in the PHP script to 'localhost' to use the email server installed on your computer. This variable can also be set to use a foreign email server. Hotmail used to provide public access to their server, hence you could put the Hotmail mail server domain here. However, since the anti-spam technology was introduced, many email providers had stopped giving access to public for using their SMTP server. $mail->Host = "smtp1.site.com;smtp2.site.com"; // SMTP serversChange to: $mail->Host = "localhost"; // SMTP servers Step 4Launch your PHPmailer script on your browser to run the application.

Not easy to find.. But I managed to anyway... Here's the link for the free Invision Power Board 2.0.0 Final Trial (Unlimited Trial) <<removed>> According to this website, this version would be the last trial version of the Invision Power Board family. Meaning in future, there might not be any trial versions available for download again, due to the fact that people are using the boards without proper licenses. EDIT: I've accidently found another download link <<removed>> Notice from BuffaloHELP: Since you didn't know what I was about to post, I will not issue a warning. Removed links.

Usually people who gets dual-core, hyper-threading or any advanced generation processors, AMD or Intel, will attach a better cooling system. The default cooling fan provided by the manufactures are able to hold to a certain level of heat for a normal simple usage. If you are those who uses the processors to run high-end games, render high defination video or graphics or any other means that requires alot of processing power, an advance cooler will be required to replace It will be best if users get water cooling systems to their high-end computers for it to remain actively high-end. Or else you will face sudden shutdowns or weird problems due to the heat produced. AMD, however as compared to Intel, produces lesser heat. Hence the default cooler is able to hold a little higher heat then Intel.

Goodjob Albus Dumbledore, you actually understood what Spen meant, while I don't.. Actually I think what he was asking about the countdown thing would be probably the he wants the background to change upon a countdown timer. If this is what he meant, the following would be the codes, including the fading animation transition from a background picture to another. http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/

If possible, try disabling the auto-refresh feature for the shoutbox. Only get the new shouts when the entire page refreshes. This should greatly reduce your total bandwidth if you got alot of members using your site or forum.

I've used Yahoo Briefcase sometime ago as I had a Yahoo email account. 30MB at that time as sufficient until when flash drives and thumb drives became common. After that, I seemed to forget about that 30MB online drive from Yahoo. I never liked RapidShare and MegaUpload. I think they are crappy because their downloads are always either invalid, have to wait for another 30 minutes, and another 30 minutes again, don't know why. Furthermore, their download speeds are very poor, at least it happened to me. Guess what, whatever I've got a successful download link from RapidShare, once in a blue moon, their download speeds was transfering at 8kbps. Never will it hit 10kbps and above. It was so dead slow. Comparing RapidShare with YouSendIt.com, I think YouSendIt.com can do things alot better, with download speeds above 100kbps. However similarly, YouSendIt.com only allows a certain number of downloads before the link turns invalid. But it will never let you wait for 30 minutes. But now, I think another filehost is above every other else. Similarly to 30MB Yahoo Briefcase which requires a Yahoo account, FileLodge.com has 500MB space for every user that signs up an account free, and with unlimited download speeds, and unlimited number of downloads. Files will not be removed by the server, not even if the files were left untouched for 10 years. I guess that's somewhat GodLike among all other file hosting providers. So do check this out, as an alternative to 30MB Yahoo Briefcase, FileLodge http://www.hugedomains.com/domain_profile.cfm?d=filelodge&e=com 500 MB Unlimited Bandwidth Maximum 50 MB Filesize Unmetered Downloads Hope you guys will like it as much as I do..

Actually with just simple CSS, HTML and Javascript, you can also customise your own tags to be used on the boards.I used to do that to my board and I find it very interesting to do it. Especially when you make something really attractive, such as the border is the picture of a lady's leg sticking out, or the background of your tag can be a lock in greyscale or something. Its just designs that you launch your own creativity.

Yeap.. I know what you meant.. But you don't know what I meant.. In the database table, there will be the auto-increment ID column, Invoice Number column, and other columns to store the invoice information and details.. This is how it will look like in the database table: ID (auto-increment) | InvoiceNumber | Name | etc.. ---------------------------------------------------------- 1 | 1000 | Bill 2 | 1001 | Peter 3 | 1002 | Smith Now ignore the auto-incrementing ID column, because I will not use it anyway. I will only take reference from Invoice number column to track the customers. So I'd rephrase my question if its a little unclear: How do I check if I've missed an Invoice number, assuming the invoice number should be in incrementing order. Notice that the following will be valid, to show what I meant by incrementing in the invoice number, not according to how the data is arranged in the database table, rather is according to how data is arranged when displayed with the SELECT SQL statement. Valid Database Table ID (auto-increment) | InvoiceNumber | Name | etc.. ---------------------------------------------------------- 1 | 1000 | Bill 2 | 1001 | Peter 3 | 1002 | Smith 4 | 1005 | Peter 5 | 1003 | Smith 6 | 1004 | Peter 7 | 1006 | Smith 8 | 1008 | John This will be displayed out with the SELECT SQL statement, ORDER BY InvoiceNumber in Accending. SQL Statement : SELECT * FROM Table WHERE InvoiceNumber ORDER BY ASC InvoiceNumber | Name | etc.. ---------------------------------------------------------- 1000 | Bill 1001 | Peter 1002 | Smith 1003 | Smith 1004 | Peter 1005 | Peter 1006 | Smith -----|___ Invoice Number 1007 is missing 1008 | John -------| So how to detect that the Invoice Number 1007 is missing?

You see, I'm trying to make a MySQL database script with PHP for to keep a record of invoices for the sales of a company. Every of the invoices has in invoice number, which runs in incrementing order (1000, 1001, 1002). I did realise that MySQL also has an auto-increment feature that started from 0 and followed by 1, 2, 3 and so on.. However this invoice number needs to be entered manually. So in the database table, there will be the auto-increment ID column, Invoice Number column, and other columns to store the invoice information and details.So probably after a month of database entry, the user wants to retrieve all the database information and view them as output. Since there could be hundreds of entries, the user might miss an invoice number. Like the 2nd example I gave in my previous post. So I would like to make a script that is able to detect the missing invoice number everything the entire database is being displayed, and arranged order by invoice number in accending order. This feature is especially useful because the user is able to see if they had missed a number or missed a client or some related matters since they would probably sum up the stuffs at the end of every month.Simply, I would just like to know how do I do it to detect and display if a number has missed?

Yeap.. definately temporary.. It's working now. But every now and then, it appeared again. :(Anyway, it's Google's server that is doing this trick. No harm in my computer..Just asking if anyone has seen this before..

Here's the code for Java, JSP and Servlet. import java.net.*;import java.io.*;import java.applet.*;public class GetClientIP extends Applet { public void init() { try { InetAddress thisIp = InetAddress.getLocalHost(); System.out.println("IP:"+thisIp.getHostAddress()); } catch(Exception e) { e.printStackTrace(); } }}<HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><APPLET CODE="GetClientIP.class" HEIGHT=10 WIDTH=10> </APPLET> Check JAVA console for output</BODY></HTML> The Servlet public void service(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse res) throws IOException { String IP = req.getRemoteAddr(); }

The development is really cool. It prevents noticable refreshing and you won't see those frames turning white again and again while loading or refreshing the current page. It's somewhat similar to double buffering in game programming.I've seen life examples of AJAX working. I was trying on a web based chat script. And for the chatters to reply such that you can see their message, the page is refreshed. Sometimes the server needs time to feed the information to your computer, as well as all the connected clients, it will slow down a little and seemed to stop feeding information to you. With AJAX, the pages reload without even noticing that it has been refreshed. The messages simply just appear, just like a normal Instant Messenger like MSN, or Skype.I guess AJAX is developing pretty well especially in contributing to multimedia sector of the internet. And also, I think AJAX works pretty well the same for all browsers. So you will not see alot of difference between Internet Explorer or Firefox..

Firstly, this question is pretty general and I think all languages are able to do it in its own way. Just that I'm making a PHP script that does the job, so I'll post it in the PHP forum. Now the question.. I'm trying to make a database record of an ID number which is not supposed to be set as auto-increment in the MySQL databse, rather the user has to key in manually the ID number. THe ID is unique and its like an ID for an invoice or receipt that suppose to run in incrementing order. For example: Invoice ID : 1000 Invoice ID : 1001 Invoice ID : 1002 Invoice ID : 1003 ... and so on.. Now let say if the user misses a number and hop to 1005, missing 1004, what is the programming code to detect that 1004 is missing? For example: Invoice ID : 1000 Invoice ID : 1001 Invoice ID : 1002 Invoice ID : 1003 Invoice ID : 1005 Invoice ID : 1006 ... and so on.. Thanks alot for help..

I'm not sure if this is common. But I'm real sure I'm seeing this for the first time on Firefox.

AVG can be considered as one of the best free anti-virus programs. I've used them and find it great. It does not hog memory like Norton products and it scans pretty fast. There are alternative free antivirus products as well..

FlashGet has a feature to export paused downloads. I believe Internet Download Acclerator might include a related feature as well. Try exporting your downloads and try another download manager, like FlashGet, and import into them to continue downloading your files. Otherwise, follow as what keysmaker suggested. It would be your firewall settings that is blocking Internet Download Acclerator, since other programs that require an internet connection still works perfectly..

Wi-Fi phone for Skpye is already out for quite some time already. It's really working like a real phone, just that it connects to the wireless router and uses the internet to transmit voice data.The so-called mobile skype phone is basically a typical notebook, or a PDA-phone, installed with only Skype software and some network applications that connects to your wireless router like how you connect your notebook wirelessly. Skype on that mobile phone will make use of it's own protocols and ports in transmitting data. Hence if you turn off your wireless router, basically your mobile skype phone will turn into a dummy device. It will be good for use in those free usage of Wi-Fi in some area, because you will talk for free. However, you can only talk to those connected to Skype, not those in the PSTN network, or simply to say, your home number or your friend's mobile phone, unless you purchased Skype-Out. Check out their Skype's website for more of its information.

I guess P2P software generally contains Adwares and Spywares, no exceptions, probably excepting for BitTorrent only. Programs like BearShare, Kazaa, iMesh etc has been verified to contain eith Adware, Spyware or both. If you read their terms and conditions before installing, you will see that they had included a note stating that scripts were included to track user's stuffs and others, all written in black and white.I guess if you want to keep your computer safe, then stop using those p2p software. Jump to BitTorrent, or never use p2p again. I'd suggest people to use IRC DCC function instead to send files. Its alot faster and considered p2p as well, because it connects directly between the host and the client machines in transfering files. The connection will not pass through a server. And you'll never get a Spyware or Adware if you download the original IRC client, not those with pre-installed scripts..

Why not? It's another dedicated movie forum for movie goers to post their reviews and comments on them. We then expect not another Harry Potter fan posting the movie comments elsewhere.. :(I'll go support the this idea with post count although I don't watch much movie. Of course basic terms and conditions will apply. Go on and make it happen..

Last night I dreamt I went to Venus through a teleport machine and it was in color of course. Although they seemed realistic at the time we are dreaming, they may be something unnatural or unlikely to happen. I don't believe one day I would travel to Venus. Pretty impossible as it's going to be hot down there being the 2nd planet in the solar system. I've also heard of people saying about dreams that came through. One of it that really came through was a person who dreamt of himself in front of a crowd which was looking into the middle grieving. He wondered what had happened so he went to take a look. To his surprise, he saw himself inside a coffin. He, surprisingly, died a few days later, probably in his sleep. Weird but it was a true story. It may be coincident, who knows.. This could be an example of Lucid Dreaming. See more about Lucid Dreaming at the website below. Here's some explaination of dream and what do some of the dreams meant. http://science.howstuffworks.com/life/inside-the-mind/human-brain/dream.htm Here's an excerpt from the article that I find interesting, and they are somewhat pretty true if you come to think more about them. Very interesting article. Do read through it and you get to know more about dreams. Then, you will think and think about it again and again, like me.. After reading this article, I believe that dreams do tell something. It may not be direct. It may be indirect that reflects what actually is happening to your real life, and may happen in future.
