  1. hey admins i am still unsure whether i am allowed to upload no-cd fixes, no one has made a definite decision. I and many others agree that i should be able to if i put a disclaimer before each download. Can admin give advice before i start uploading thesethankx
  2. You have to do a new layout.Because this layout is very bad, change the colors and to do new things.
  3. Your site has a good layout, but whats is it about?
  4. Yeh start from scratch!!! Layouts are stupid you need to customise your own site to make it your own!!!Just start simple and advance and improve. Perhaps learning html with a boook or tutorial cud b a gud start.
  5. I dont really know wat your talkin bout hulnes Are you talkin about gmail or something else?? Anyway if u wanna gmail just tell me your email
  6. You can still get the notification popups with gmail, if you use one the notfication utilities. Check http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ Some of the utilities even work with multiple account on mutiple servers, much better than msn notification
  7. There is no pop3 or smpt becasue its ad based. If they let you send/receive mail without the ads, how would they make money. BTW there are some third part utilities available which provide fake pop3 and smtp for gmail. I don't remember the links. Will find out
  8. Your tutorial deals with transparent wndows in X11 (correct me if I'm worng). And I think "KyoNiwa" is asking for tranparent frame on the web. Which he can use with mouse over functions.
  9. I want to put some images on my site using some image gallery script. Cpanel comes with a few. I tried 4images, it works Ok, but it doesn't create thumbnails automaticallly. Well it does, but you got go to admin page to create the thumbnails.What I'm looking for is a simple php gallery script which can generate thumbnails on the fly.Any suggestion?
  10. Thanks a lot. I was looking for changing the main page by configuring modules. Never noticed the EDIT link on the main page.
  11. I had the same problem this morning. It was comming up with sql error. Somthing to do with index file missing. But appearently my hosted site kept working fine.I think both the Xisto and hosted sites are on the same machine (they all have the same ip). But the error was a file error, not like the hardware error.

    What is MySQL?

    Some peoples also pronounce it at se kwu el. Not sure if this is the right way.On another note, does anyone know who started SQL? I don't think mysql is the first SQL
  13. I like to watch a football match but I like to play baseball .
  14. I like The Classic and Windstruck ( Korean Film ) . These films are romantic and the music is wonderful .
  15. Windows has been developing on itself since the beginning, rewriting from scratch is far from the truth. If they rewrote their OS, then a lot of their obsolete, since the prehistoric ages of DOS would not be left over, who here loads information off a cassette tape drive? There's more junk left over than just that. There has not been much major changes, basically it's just been repackaged and labelled a new version/year and everyone flocks out to buy it, so they jazzed up the GUI a bit, is that a major change?, they added new functions, is that a major change? A major change would involve rewriting the Windows APIs and not adding functionality to it, that could work with their current APIs. Why isn't it working with your older hardware? Well MS are known for breaking compatibility and not actually fixing things. It's usually a case with their patches, if it's patching against a worm, it's breaking the worms compatibility with their OS. I do believe this whole Reverse Engineering their OS is a MS cover for what they did in the early days and that a lot of their code wasn't their own. I've still got little to believe that Bill Gates created the BASIC interpreter since it could have been stolen from an HP Calculator that existed around that time. Apart from that, everything else was either partially them helping out but them being the first to market before it's competitors. Note that I mentioned market and not created. The story now will be somewhat different, they would not have to do so much now. OK maybe it's still the same. MC

    The Sims 2!

    I got this game rite away when i knew itz out!It'z quite good, also with nice graphics
  17. Decided to have it's own Thread Here's a fully functional console calendar I wrote using pdcurses/ncurses, it was based off a Windows version calendar, but I ported what I could to Linux, still missing some functionality from the Windows version by stoned coder, but I hope to get that sorted. // calendar.cpp by mastercomputers// includes#include <curses.h> // contains our console objects#include <cstdlib> // contains our string manipulation objects// classesclass calendar{public: calendar(int d = 1, int m = 1, int y = 2004); // defaults to 1/1/2004 (nz format dd/mm/yy) virtual ~calendar() {} // does nothing, destructor virtual incase of inheritance void printcalendar();private: bool isleapyear(); // returns true if leap year int checkday(int); // checks validity of the day int whatdayisfirstofmonth(); // returns 0 to 6 (Sunday - Saturday) int howmanydays(); // returns number of days in the month int day; int month; int year;};// constructorscalendar::calendar(int d, int m, int y) //checks validity of date and sets the variables{ if(y < 1582) // Gregorian calendar was accepted 1582 { printw("\nThe year %d is before Gregorian Calendar was accepted.\nWill fix to Julian Calendar eventually.\nSetting Year to 1582\nPress ANY key to continue\n", y); refresh(); getch(); // waits for key press year = 1582; // invalid year so set to 1582 } else if(y >= 4904) // Every 3,322 years the calendar is out by a full day { printw("\nEvery 3,322 years would be out by a full day for the Gregorian Calendar.\nI will never live to see if they ever fix it.\nSo I am not correcting this calendar, but do be warned.\nSetting Year to %d\nPress ANY key to continue\n", y, y); refresh(); getch(); year = y; } else year = y; // y is valid so use it to set year if((m >= 1) && (m <= 12)) // check month between 1 and 12 month = m; // if it is, sets month else { printw("\nThe month %d is invalid.

Well, what this console program does is ask you for a DAY you like to see, MONTH you like to see and YEAR you like to see. It will then display a calendar with the day names and the days within that month. It changes the color of your DAY to red so it stands out more. Updated: Another Calendar request added, a bit of code cleanup, works in Windows under DOS, Every 3,322 year fix (I thought about it but it would not be official and after 3,322 years I wouldn't exists to see a fix, I have a solution but will not include it in the program. For those of you who are lazy and run DOS, here's the zipped up source and binary. PM me and I'll compile it and make it available for you. Things that need working on: Build a Menu to run program, Ability to have specific date choice e.g. day/month/year or month/day/year, make compatible for early years using Julian's Calendar, different color displays and better layout, show the full year calendar and whatever else I can come up with. Apart from that, it's a fully functional Gregorian Calendar. If anyone would like to make alterations, please feel free. I know there's a lot that could be improved as it was quickly done. Cheers, MC
  18. Yeh tell me about it!!!!!!!!!!! Im experiencing the same types of problems!!!! Plus heaps and heaps of people are getting gmails everyday!!!! I honestly think that google will cut down the gig space. It wud b way to much to handleBut i spose its all to do with ur connection speed ad every1 noes:'the quicker the speed the less time'
  19. puppyforest wats your email dog??? You didnt post it. I need it to send the activation link.
  20. Yeh its thats ok zenchi . It will be quite cool to see the most popular site that is hosted on Xisto server. I wud b quite interested to c this lol.Zenchi ull just hav 2 get into webdesigning a bit more so yuo cud get your site at the top of the list.
  21. Don't use frontpage, its crap. Just get all your websites files in 1 folder somewhere and then upload them with flashfxp or cuteftp (good ftp programs) For these programs use the following settings: Server: ftp.trap17.com Username: YOURUSERNAMEHERE Password: YOURPASSWORD HERE And connect to it then drag all your files from the folder into your ftp program once you are connected to your account. AND THATS IT!!! You can obtain these ftp programs (trials) from: Flashfxp CuteFTP
  22. Just a quick question about PHPNuke.Which modules needs to be configured to change the initial admin welcome screen?I tried all the modules I can think of, but none of them have the contents that's displayed on the initial screen.
  23. I've seens windows like that. Never bothered to check the source.
