I've read and followed the instructions guided by this thread --> http://forums.xisto.com/topic/61751-free-web-hosting-free-trap17asta-subdomain-hosting-procedure-how-to-order-yournametrap17com-or-yournameastahostcom/ However, I could not find the option "I will update my nameservers on an existing domain Or I will register a new domain". I cannot find any ways to set up a hosting account with a subdomain provided as well. Anyone have any idea about this?

Yep, that's exactly what's troubling me.. It's indeed a tough one, still in search of a good solution to it. I guess I need some research on the web for normal practises of others.

Lets hope the processes on my pc everyday is not enough to make me go crazy looking at them :lol:And yea ctrl+alt+del solve most problem with the process tab, just worried that I couldn't figure out what exactly went wrong with my computer even though I've manage to kill the right process. I'll do a little googling around, hopefully some luck is with me

That sounds promising, but I think if the user edit the application in a way such that he doesn't touch the code where the application communicates with the server and the user alters the data(credit) being send to the server for only, everything would defeat it's purpose. The user can also make their own application which can download and send the token as well to the server right? Correct me if I'm wrong, not too sure about all these stuff. Something just struck me, how about generating an MD5 of the current application being used to prove the original application was used?

That might be a solution for it if the user must access the application from the website itself, which only open door to Java Applet and Java Web Start. Application that resides on desktop would not work, which means I'm left with having the users to download the application everytime they uses it. I guess I'll think about it and maybe I'll use some manipulating of the tokens with some authentication. Banning system comes handy too, but requires lots of monitoring. Thanks for all the advise!

I'm not talking about the real hacking, I'm talking about tricks that makes it looks like hacking. It will save yourself in an embarrass situation if you know more about those tricks.

Yea I do have login feature to authenticate the users. However my scenario is as follows: I have an application in which users will use it to gain credits with a credit system. After performing some task through the java application, they will be entitled to some credits in which the application will inform the server abt the amount to be credited and to whom it should be credited. My problem is what if someone decode my application, found the way in which the application communicates with the server, and then modifies the application so that he can always send his own desire amount of credits. Would this be a definite problem for Java Applications or is there any workaround to it? Because it would be best if I could use Java for this particular application. Yea this is a good idea but as you said, if someone were to decode it that would prove the security measures useless already. I was thinking about applet but it would result in the same outcome as well. Web application would not be that flexible as the application would be restricted by the browsers limitivity.

I've learn batch file before and it's quite easy to set up a simple batch file. I think what I need is the ms dos command which I guess will work. If there's a prepared list of such tricks of "hacking" on the web would be perfect. It's better to safe guard yourself first with those tricks before others do!

Ctrl+Break is quite useful for programmings and debuggers using IDE that enables you to stop processes with the break button. I've used it alot in mIRC scripting and some other programs. However scroll key have much lesser usage for me and I don't usually have a need for it. I love scrolling

Nice information to tell us what our computers can do with those commands. Is there a site or list of various tricks or command which we can use with windows? Maybe some commands can really help us ultilise our windows to the fullest.

I'm trying to create a Java Application which will be able to preform CRUD with perhaps a MySQL database hosted online. However, I'm worrying over security issues, including authentications and especially how would the server authenticates that the data is actually generated or sent by the Java Application, not someone who break into my application, change the code and modify the data that is being send to the server and updated into the database.Is there any form of authentication or perhaps is there an alternative that can be use in Java to perform such process in a more secure way?

I came from an IT diploma and the course have many students. I would say only less than 10% really understand what is programming about and know how to read simple codings, 2% have the talent to continue in this field of work. The rest are just smoking their way through the course and trying to graduate with simple pass. Most ppl couldn't understand what coding is about and how they works. Perhaps it's just not easy for most ppl to spot simple logic patterns or understand "broken" english.

Try googling it. If you are posting this in this section I suppose you are going for JSP? JSP might not be so flexible in codings for such services and I recommend ASP.NET or PHP for it. And also perhaps the pages are static, maybe they just created a convertor or a processor to process the HTML code file/CSS code file and change it to be able to be shown as code in a web page.

Nice replies and answers from everyone. Thanks again.However, the main difference between free and paid hosting is that when a free hosting goes down or decides to wind up, we might not get an explaination or refund. With paid hosting they are not allowed to discontinue their services without pior notices or various refunds. You will definitely feel more power and confidence when you are using a paid hosting rather than a free hosting.

It is big :PBeginner does not equals to not talented. You might be just starting out but you could have tons of potential and might become great one day. Keep the passion coming and you will do well.

I'm not worried about the posting part as I'm quite an old member here and the previous Credit system seems to be more tedious and harder to gain those credits as it's minus off everyday. I guess I got almost everything answered, so I can even choose the plan that cost $9++ or even the VPS. That would be fantastic, I guess I'm gonna start my hosting with Xisto pretty soon since I have quite a number of credit in the billing system already. :lol:PS: Are we counted as having a free web host or paid ones? =x

Recently I'm back looking for php host and Xisto came back to my mind and I took a look around. Many things have changed since the days when I'm using the credit system where 1 credit = 1 day of free hositng. Now with regards to the new system myCents, I would like to clarify some doubts. What packages are we entitled to by using the myCents system? Are there any full feature plans comparison page? Is it that we are only entitled to those plans stated at the shopping cart of the xisto billing site? Are there a specific day whereby the credit is deducted or is it counted from the day where you sign up for the hosting plan? Do we manually exchange the myCents into cash credit, or will the myCents system automatically exchange 100 myCents into $1 when you reach enough myCents? Thanks in advance for answering my queries.

Hiya akira, welcome to the forum. Glad to see another talented programmer here :lol:Something to advise you is that your siggy is abit too long in width, perhaps you give every siggy bar a line break so it looks neater and the pages are not stretched?

Just stick to this simple logic, when you wan a box to appear, set the style to "display:none", whether it's dynamic or manual set. If you want a box to be shown as default, set the style to "display:none", then when you click a button to show the box, use javascript onclick function to set it to "display:block". Same goes for you textbox. Example for click to display a text box" <script type="text/javascript">function showbox() {document.getElementById('box1').style.display = 'block';}</script><div id="box1"><input type="text" /></div>

Yeah sometimes you need to have a real bad english in order to be a good programmer, and that's why my english isn't that fantastic . Perhaps it will be good to have a programming language that will have syntax of a fluent english but it might not be that welcome by programmers around the world. It might be too time consuming to come out with a script that has perfect english with little gramatical or vocab errors. And imagine that all programmers in the world have been dealing with PHP,ASP.NET,Java,C+ etc have been to used to many years of scripting with the same style, it would not be easy to get them to switch to the more alien syntax to be used.

I've seen very few sites on the internet that has adopt the technology of Microsoft Silverlight. Most of the sites are still using flash as their main dynamic pages and stunning graphical user interface. I believe mostly sites use Silverlight for integration with videos and media content, which don't really help much when ppl are actually using more of YouTube and video tags from HTML 5.0

Wow.. Seriously I didn't remove my batteries when I have my powerpoint on. I always leave it there, and it's been working with me for like more than 1 year already. Well, any reason for me to keep my battery in place is because if you unfortunately, you experience a blackout when you are working so hard on a project that is due tomorrow and you forgot to save. ZOMG and you are screwed. Or someone accidental off your plug or trip over the wires, there goes your lappy and constant illegal shutdown on the computer would not do any good to your laptop. Personally I believe that Dell laptop is definitely not recommended, they spoils easily(experience from my friends around me) and many news abt it exploding. I heard of what Dell computers are made of, but I do not want to comment on it here. However, I would recommend Dell's Desktop computers only, since they are very durable on desktop and you can leave them on 24/7.

Wow that is pretty nice.. I think IE 8 would be something worth looking at, given that atm Microsoft is heavily working on their look and feel of their graphics. I believe there is some good eye-candy soon :PI know that for every website developer that IE is always a troublesome browser(I myself have experience it). float doesn't works properly, and developing your site with IE would cause tons of trouble with firefox user. However, we must accept the fact that IE is still the most popular, or rather most used browser in today's world. I myself is an usual IE user, I do everything with IE, including making websites. However, I always use firefox to test out the css and everything to check that it works and looks the same for almost all browser. I still like the IE layout, and I simply love the default font of IE, it's definitely more fantastic than firefox's. It has very small toolbar which provide a larger view of the websites I'm browsing through, but I do know that it won't work really well when you add something to it, like changing your theme of your windows.Overall I like to see a new version of IE, and like everyone is hoping for, we need Microsoft to make a valid browser that reads the CSS properly!!

Wow cool, I heard safari browser is very good and ppl using mac really like it.. Now we hardcore windows users will get our chance to use it and test it out! I'm sure this will be a hit! Any ideas what are the unique features about this apple safari for windows?

I'm currently learning ASP.NET too. If you have any problems with ASP.NET I suggest you can try out their official forum --> http://forums.asp.net/ I can answer some basic question here though, so if you have some simple question you can ask me.. I use VB.NET instead of C# btw..
