Could you mention the other programs that can make swf files?

Thanks for the tip. Pretty useful indeed. I'm totally new to flash, just have written a few little animations myself. I was wondering, how can one have that form of slideshow with the little pictures on the right side? That's something I'd like to do myself on my site. Thanks in advance, Nevermind, just found the answer myself. It's called simple viewer, and it's a freebie!! cool stuff!!! Link is here: https://www.simpleviewer.net/simpleviewer/

Can anybody comment on the difference between flv and swf? I'm not a flash expert by any chance but so far I've only embeded swf objects into my webpages.

Just curious. Who did you go with who wasn't Bell or Videotron? on the other hand,talking about freebies. What IP TV sites would you recommend?

Hello,Searched through the forum but didn't find any hits on how to do this.I've designed a page that has an embeded flash movie (*.swf format). The page works great when I test it on my local server but when I post it on the net the movie (about 2 megs in size) takes a while to load. Is there any way to stream the movie as opposed to have the browser download it all at once? Any other suggestions to speed the loading of the page? Thanks in advance.

Lots of interesting replies. All technical ppl though. I would love to hear about those odd jobs like the guy who dig the wholes on the cheese or that fat guy porn star. Would be interesting to know how they got where they are In my case I'm a telecom engineer working as a 3rd level support and trial guy. It's interesting most of the time as I get to travel around the world demostrating our product but it's also a lot of hard work. Recently I've evaluated if whether or not I'd like to move to a different position, like sales engineering or something totally out of the scope of technology, like opening a bed and breakfast or something like that. How I got here? Well, graduated in computer science, so I knew more about SQL and programming than about modems but I wanted to explore that side so I did my coop at mastercard on the telecom deparment and then later on moved to a company reselling telecom products. After that I moved to north america and found a job precisely with the vendor we used to resell on.

If the site is just a blog (that would be the 1st critique, why so many ads if it's just that??) there are plenty of free services where you can blog without having to sell your soul and put an ad every other line.

Thanks for the link. pretty useful. I also found this one pretty useful as it has how tos for common tasks like user authentication, user tracking, PHP/MySQL integration, etc: http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/

Not sure what you're trying but something you could do to understand how it works is getting the apache distribution for Linux or Windows (depending on which OS you're running) installed on your home PC. I've got it installed on a windows xp machine and also installed perl. Assuming you're running on an Apache server, the scripts go on the cgi-bin directory. If you have apache installed there should be a ScriptAlias entry like so on the Apache\conf\httpd.conf file: ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ "C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/cgi-bin/" Of course perl should already be installed on the server. On the same file httpd.conf there should be an entry like so at the end: PHPIniDir "C:/Program Files/PHP/" LoadModule php5_module "C:/Program Files/PHP/php5apache2_2.dll" AddType application/x-httpd-php .php Not sure if this helps. E-mail me or reply to my post with more details on what you're trying to acomplish and some other members might be able to help.

Hello,I'm new to PHP myself and have what I hope is a basic question. I'd like to have password protected pages on my site. Simple have no more than 10 pages, each one with its own password. Is this doable with PHP, do I need MySQL installed for that? Furthermore, if I see a server like the one provided by Xisto.com how can I install my PHP script on it?

Thanks for all the replies suggesting PHP. I've actually installed it at home to start playing with it and yes it seems pretty powerful. One of the first things I'd like to do is to have password protected pages, is it easy to do such a thing with PHP? Any sample code you could contribute? I'll keep on the look.

This is actually pretty cool. Tested it and works like a charm. Is there any way in java to protect the pictures so they cant be downloaded using right-click once they're displayed?

Agree with the more substance portion. So far what I've seen from Vista: - TCP/IP performance parameters are auto-tuned on a per-connection basis, as opposed to on an interface basis as on XP. This is a great improvement specially for laptops that can change from a high speed reliable network to a crappy one and back. All those parameter that we used to tweak for one situation or another will be automatically adjusted. More details here: http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ - The video editing portion is pretty good and user friendly. I've used Adobe Premiere Elements (the scaled down version of Adobe Premiere) to do some video editing on my own, and even though I've never been a windows fan, they've really done a good job at making basic tasks pretty much automatic, which makes windows movie maker a great competitor or adobe premiere elements.

Kind of self explanatory. On the 1st one the server runs on a Linux OS and a webserver like apache while on the other one will run on windows-based technology like Advanced server 2003 or something like that.

Hello,I'm starting to play with web design and stuff and would like a recommendation from this knowlegeable forum on what is a good server side programming language. I've got some experience in Java running PC-based applications but that's pretty much it, never done applets or anything else. Also have been playing with perl and php. My use will be primarily creating records that will be accesible by only using a password, what would be the best way to accomodate that?Thanks in advance,
