For small things, i just use IE. Otherwise i use ws_ftp pro which isnt free so i wont recommend it to you. However, if you cant just use your current browser for the ftp transfers, go to downloads.com and search ftp and you will be sure to find numerous free ftp clients that will more than enough suit your needs.

Google Music Trends See what Google Talk users are listening to
fffanatics replied to bhavesh's topic in Search Engines
Very interesting of a feature. It looks like i am going to have to go and browse it for a while and see if it is worth a daily visit. -
Yeah photoshop pulls fonts from your c:\windows\fonts directory. All you have to do is put the fonts in there and then restart photoshop if it is currently running so i can reproduce a list of fonts from the directory.

You are completely wrong about only having to learn one language for application software development. First of all, for an application to run a gui you need to learn WinAPI, for 3d-graphical applications you need to learn DirectX or OpenGL, etc. For the underlying application you may only need one language but many programs are written in multiple languages. The one company my dad used to work for, the had a java application with embedded c++ since c++ does mathematical operations faster than java. For AI programs, you use java or c++ or c# with lisp embedded in it since lisp is all recursion and can do graph / tree search must faster than a normal modern language.

Google Talk Updated With Voice Mail, File Sharing! New Features added
fffanatics replied to delivi's topic in The Internet
Yahoo and MSN have bunch of customers but i still think AIM is the most popular instant messanger. Therefore, if google partners with AOL and has more features, they will be ok -
Problem With Css And Div Tag It is not aligned right
fffanatics replied to BooZker's topic in Programming
Yeah and the fact that the file is a php file, unless we through the files onto our own server to run, we wont be able to see what you mean. Either upload it to your Xisto site or post a screen shot so we can see it. I would check the float element and or add a z-index element to your css to make sure the box you want on top has the highest z-value. -
If you boot sector on the HDD is faultry try running fixmbr from the recovery console on the windows disk.

Hiding <div> Boxes With Javascript Javascript Help #1
fffanatics replied to FirefoxRocks's topic in Programming
In order to make it look like it is sliding from the top of the screen out without using flash, you would have to write a javascript function that would change the the css top attribute from the same height as where the show text link is to that number plus the height of the new text incrementaly so that it looks like it slides. You also would need to set the divs position attribute to aboslute and define exactly where you want it to be on the page. For the functions you would do something like function slide (element, amount, initTop, finalTop) { if (initTop >= finalTop) { element.style.top = finalTop; break; } else { element.style.top = initTop + amount; slide (element, amount, initTop, finalTop); }} The only problem with the script above is that you are going to have to find a way to slow down the sliding using a pause script that also still flushes the screen. Try googling for a moving image script and just take the pause part of it. Currently im at work so i cant really spend that much time finding one. Atleast here is a start for you. -
Yeah i had tried Windows Media Player 11 a few months ago when the beta first came out. Like everyone else has already said, the gui was very nice and it made the popular feature much easier to find. What no one else mentioned was how it sorted the artists. It showed all the album covers and also allowed you to long online to get track names and info in a very easy to do manner. Plus, the only time it asked for your help in this process was when it could not determine the information itself which was not very often. It did have bugs in it like the transparency feature but it wont be released til vista comes out and it probably has aero featuer written for it. Keep in mind it still is in beta and that it will be buggy but overall its a great improvement from 10

Hard Drive Freezer Trick have you ever tried it?
fffanatics replied to serverph's topic in Hardware Workshop
The freezer trick works wonderfully. Yes, some problems with hard drives will not allow this trick to work due to it being a more mechanical issue rather than sector problems. However, we use it at work for every hard drive that dies (we have over 700 employees so there a ton of dead hard drives) and it has only failed me once in the past 3 months. Leave the hard drive in the freezer for atleast 1 hour. Then try to use it. If it doesnt work try putting it back in the freezer for few more hours and try again. If it still doesnt work, then you know its a mechanical malfunciton and dont waste any more time waiting for it. -
Every place i have ever worked (whether it is a small start up or a large internationally traded company) they have always used Norton Antivirus for the business and i have never had any problems with it. Plus, its very easy to push software updates and virus definition updates straight from the server.

Width Of Display Area Of Browser Window is there a formula?
fffanatics replied to Jeune's topic in Programming
Javascript is not the answer for a table width problem like this. It has too many restrictions based on the browser being used. What you are going to want to do is use width="100%" and if you are going to set the pixel width of any tr's or td's inside the 100% width table, be warned that if the screen is too small for the set widths specified, a scrollbar will be inserted. -
Is Popunder Wise Choice To Advertise Website?
fffanatics replied to apple's topic in Online Advertising
Dont use any sort of popup/under advertisments. Most of the time they get blocked anyway and you still will be charged for them. The best type of advertisements for a website is a high google rank and affiliations links and finally just posting it in forums under a related topic, etc. -
Looks very good but the text should be a light grey or white so that it is readable. Also, beware that with the amount of images that you would need to create this site, it most likely will have a slower load times for people without a good connection. Overall, it is a very good and creative design with just a few tweaks needed

Dell Laptop Explodes - Leads To Major Recall
fffanatics replied to Plenoptic's topic in General Discussion
That is very interesting. However, i guess eventually a laptop was going to explode from malfunctioning. They have been out for so long with out any issues like this so it was bound to happen. Thankfully no one was hurt and hopefully it wont happen in the near future again. -

Is There Much Demand For Web Designers/developers?
fffanatics replied to CarlU's topic in Business Forum
There is a huge demand for web developers. I currently go to the university of delaware for a degree in computer science and recently a local bar / restaurant asked me to do there website. Now just from doing one, i have 3 - 5 other offers on the table if i have time to do them and so forth. -
Alright i am 6 foot tall and weigh 135 lbs. Therefore my BMI is 18.3 so i would be considered underweight since anything under 18.5 is underweight technically. However, for me i eat all day long (but right, lots of small meals) and i do a large amount of exercise which is why my BMI is low. Like others have said, this isnt scientific and genetics and the amount of fat your body contains is a better factor to determine your health.

The Best Browser In Your Opinion for WIN32/64 systems
fffanatics replied to jacob's topic in Software
I am going to have to say that the best browser still is Microsoft Internet Explorer. The reason is that people still design sites specifically for it since it is what the average person uses. For this reason alone, those who use firefox do experience sites that do not look right and i just cant stand that. As a web designer i make sure my sites look the same in both browsers but many people dont. -
What Eye Colour Would You Prefer? If you could change it?
fffanatics replied to life_is_life's topic in General Discussion
I would never change my eye color. I have light blue eyes and everyone always asks me if they are real since they stand out a ton. It tends to be a good ice breaker when people are approaching me for the first time at a party or something. Pus, blue is my favorite color and i also couldnt image myself with different color eyes. -
Why And When Did You Make Your First Site?
fffanatics replied to seanooi's topic in General Discussion
I made my first site roughy 7 years ago when i was a freshman in high school taking an html programming course. I hosted it on geocities and basically used it to learn html and javascript way quicker than the class was being taught since it was moving at a snails pace.
