  1. A lot of people would say Internet Explorer because they've never used Firefox, I think Firefox is a lot better because you can add in your own themes and add-ons, something that you can't do with Internet Explorer, the pop-up blocker on Internet Explorer was useless, if you turned it on you couldn't open any links that opened in a new window, and it would still let most pop-ups through.There are some great add-ons that you can get with Firefox, there's ad blockers, sidebars, downloaders, youtube downloaders there's hundreds!I would recommend anyone that uses Internet Explorer to give Firefox a go, it's safer, faster and customizable!
  2. It looks like your using over people script's instead of using your own; your contact form isn't made by yourself, nor are the forums or the games, this not only makes it look very unprofessional and unwelcoming, but also makes it look like an amateur attempt, but because your 14 I guess its okay.Also why do you have adverts on there? that makes it look even worse!The chat isn't yours either, with a bit of PHP knowledge you could create all of that yourself, and give it a feel of your website, each page seems to have a different theme, not helped at all by using other people's scripts.People have probably visited, but have no reason to come back, perhaps make a members area where you have to register, login, etc...This would make a world of difference!
  3. Yeah I had to do this when my IE broke, I thought instead of getting IE again I'd try Firefox, and its a lot better than IE!I didn't know you could use it for command prompt to! Thanks for telling me!
  4. It does make it slightly faster for me!Thanks a lot!
  5. Your really serious about finding every university in the world? good luck!You can just use a simple HTML form to list country's and then another one that would list all the universities in that country, then use PHP to enter it into a database.If you want the page to not redirect after the country is selected, you'll need to use AJAX.
  6. I don't think so, if it did it would probably be the fault of the server.If you want people to be able to see the source code put the extension to something like .txt or .phps
  7. Why don't you use Mysql query? that would make it a lot easier!Don't jump in at the deep end trying to make a super secure login script with loads of features, a simple register, login and logout is fine for a first try! from there you can make more adjustments to it later. Also i noticed you don't seem to have a members page yet, what use is a forgotten password script if your visitors have no reason to come back!. Like I said don't jump in at the deep end, simple Mysql query's are fine! if you do that there's little chance of errors, and the errors that you do get are simple mistakes, ones that a novice could correct easily.
  8. You don't need one, but as I know from experience once you have your sights set on something its hard to take them off, especially if its your website.You can make one using JavaScript, just search around Google for it.Alternatively, you can just make an ordinary registration from really easily using PHP, I've made my own Login, Registration and Administration panel really easily, the users can change their password and settings, its so easy to do, or you can just download a pre-made one from almost any download website.Good luck anyway!
  9. Typical of Microsoft not to do anything unless lots know how to do it, hopefully they release a fix soon...Thanks for letting us know.. (not sure what a firewire port is so I guess I'll go check on Wikipedia or something..).- Tracdoor
  10. It looks pritty good, same as mine basically!I don't think there's any improvement you can do security wise, but when your doing your mysql_query's use sprintf with mysql_real_escape_string (read up on it closer to the time) I think it makes the query more secure.
  11. I used Notepad, its the only way to learn to start off with, if you use something like Frontpage or Dreamweaver its like having an interpreter, its saying to you; "why learn the language when you can get something to do it for you", once you've used Notepad and got with the concept of all the coding, move onto something like Notepad++, its easier if you have long scripts as it can check curly brace matching etc... (gets VERY annoying trying to do it on Notepad).Good luck anyway, like I said, the only way to learn a langauge is by practise, not getting something to do it for you.
  12. Good luck! For my first PHP script I made an email form+sender, ever since then all I want to do is PHP! For my second one, the one I am on at the moment, I am trying to make a member system (allowing the user to register, login, change password & settings etc..) i'm nearly there, just adding some design to it! look if you like: http://sam.exofire.net/register.php. It's great when you spend ages on sorting out the errors in your script and then it finally works and you can try it out - best part of it by far, its even more of a great feeling when you make the script yourself - not just searching source forge or something Good luck anyway...
  13. Its possible yes, but if your a novice at PHP (like me) then it will take some time! For example, i'm trying to make my own member system (where the user can register, login change password etc...) at the moment, after 2 days i've managed to get it working with no errors, the users can register, change their password, login and change their settings. You can see it if you like: http://sam.exofire.net/register.php. If you want the script then i'll happily give it to you, hopefully you can change to suite your needs! just email me. Good luck; i'm actually hoping to make something similar eventually, making every part on my own and hoping to one day be great at PHP
  14. I like it - simple design and quick loading times!Perhaps you could change how the text is organised, I can't read text for a long time without getting bored, perhaps organise it into blocks or put it into a text box?I've added it to my favorates, i'll be checking back sometime to look at that art work
