thablkpanda, Please stay within the topic. If it's a question pertaining to your post you can PM moderators directly. What was your topic title? PM me with your answer, please. According to your post records the last post you made was just recently. snlildude87, I created a folder quote.png and place my index.php like so <?php/************************************************** **********************//* PHP RandomRotator v1.0 *//* =========================== *//* *//* Written by Steve Dawson - http://stevedawson.com/ *//* Freelance Web Developer - PHP, Perl and Javascript programming *//* *//* This program is free software.

I even tried to have random.txt as <img alt="my random quote"><img alt="my random quote2"> so that the image box will come up but the quote would be in the image frame. It works in the regular browser (either ways) but not for the forum. Thank you.

Well, I have been saying that Yahoo!'s domain purchase is far better. They are still offering $4.95 a year UP TO 5 years. You can't beat that. Yahoo! offers A, CNAME, MX, Nameserver and more total control over your top domain name and yes, they offer all .com .net .whatevers. And I don't know about Netfirms but I sure do trust Yahoo! whole heartedly.When you go to Yahoo!'s main page you will see, sometimes, the ad for domain name discount. Or visit their Small Business section. If you cannot find the discount code, just let me know. I do not receive any compensation for promoting Yahoo!'s domain registration. It's obtainable through anywhere.

Hello Jildou,Welcome to Xisto. If there's any question you can think of, please feel free to use the shoutbox or PM (private message) to one of moderators. We'll be happy to answer as best as we can. Netherlands, huh? I'm thinking it's beautiful there. Perhaps you could care to send us a picture post card by submitting some photos of the scenic. I like to travel to different countries and just absorbed the culture.I do have a possible solution to your blisters--wear a glove. HA HA I don't mean to be sarcastic but wearing a glove will definitely help from getting more blisters. You know the golf gloves? Well they make gloves for both hands now. It's inexpensive and they are very light--almost skin tight. Secondly, if you already have a blister, try not to pop it. I used to use crazy glue (an American version of super glue) to prevent my skin from falling out. But I was told by my doctor that this practice is very bad. She gave me an injection though. It hurts like heck but the blister went away in 2 days. Impressive, huh?Well anyway, don't forget to check my signature area (that's below this post) for some useful links.

With that kind of visitation, I'd put some kind of money making ads/clicks. Imagine if only 20% clicked and even if you get 0.01 cents a click, that's $2 a day! That's about $60 a month. I'm not saying anything mean but I'd think about dedicated server if I was you. I've seen dedicated server starting at $40.00 a month with virtually unlimited bandwidth with 40GB space. I can start my own hosting place and make even more money...

As you can see in my signature that I have incorporated snlildud87's random rotating signature. But I wanted to be random quotes instead of pictures. So as I tried to implement to show plain text words, I failed. It wouldn't show.So I resorted to using my Photoshop and entering my text and saving as a picture. Is there a way to make random quotes to rotate in this forum? Of is that hacking and possibly cause security risk?

I agree. I like the retro icons. They are simple and straight to the point. I suppose it's not icons that are the object of the game, but to win with your own strategy. But I do have another comment. What about those missing icons for Rope, Dirk etc on Spy tools and the whole Sentry tools section? Will they ever be filled in?

Hi ProfBobFirst of all, welcome to Xisto hosted members area. I can only answer few of your questions. I can share your frustration of setting up a database. That's why I never touch them But have you tried our preinstalled scripts found in your cPanel? We have forum scripts that are already there and all you have to do is just install which you want to use. phpBB seems to be the easiest to handle, in my past experience.I just responded to a topic regarding FTP usage. In my signature area you will find the link to FileZilla Setup. OpaQue has also written a great tutorial for WsFTP and it is pinned at the top of Hosted Members Area section. You can search through our Tutorial section and find just about everything you need. But in case you don't find one please feel free to post a new topic with detailed title and its description.

FTP Definition It's an easier ways to upload multiple files to your hosting account. You can use cPanel to upload. But what if you would like to upload 5 files from here and 10 files from there? cPanel does not give you that flexibility. By using FTP you can upload while other files are uploading. How To Use FileZilla I've been meaning to write this but I'd figure OpaQue's WSFTP tutorial was enough. But here it goes. Open up your FileZilla and click on FILE > SITE MANAGER 1. click on New Site and name whatever you'd like. 2. enter 64.69.46.210 or ftp.yourSite.com as Host. Servertype FTP. Effective Nov-15-2005 3. enter your cPanel username and password 4. click on Advanced 5. Default local means the location of your files in your computer. This will show your set web file directory to wherever you set every time you connect to the FTP site you are connecting with. Default remote is /public_html/ This will go directly link to your public_html directory of your hosting, making it easier to just upload and go. This is how I set my FileZilla. And all you have to do is double click on a file and it will upload (or download when double clicked on a file/folder from the right hand side) to whatever directory you are viewing in your hosting (remote) location. Be aware that if you need to go into a particular directory in your hosting (remote) folder, you are in that folder. To do this, simply double click on the folder name and you are in--just like using your file explorer. You can go out of that directory by double clicking on .. directory, located at the top of every directory listing. You can modify, just like using your Windows Explorer, by right clicking on a directory to rename, delete, view, create (it's really easy). Why Multiple FTP Accounts? Multiple FTP accounts are useful when you set up an account where someone can upload a file(s) to your site without disturbing your hosting files. It's great for my work when I have to send hundreds of pictures and documents to my boss--email cannot hold more than 10mb at a time. It saves, for me, annoying "your message cannot be delivered. Inbox full" message. It's also useful when you want to collect files from anonymous user but you don't want to risk the security by giving your main FTP account and password. This is similar to making a subdomain within your domain and letting that person use and modify that subdomain without disturbing your entire file content. So let's say you want to host for another person besides you, but you don't want that person to meddle around with your website, you create a subdomain for yourself, set up an FTP account for that person and that person can upload, manage, delete and create that person's own website. And your website will never be disturbed. But be warned that if you do not have the full understanding of how to's please ask before you go on. NOTE: anonymous FTP is DISABLED for Xisto host. If you would like to grant access to your space via FTP, create another account with password and give that information. Remember to set the quota limit otherwise you'll run out of space very quick!

I travel quiet often alone so generally I have to eat on the go or while I'm waiting for my next flight. Unless I am traveling with a colleague my eating style is eat in whatever restaurant whenever I can. However, when I do return to my home area I do enjoy dining in group solely because it's a rare chance I get. There are some days that I have the proper course 3 meals a day but mostly I'm a binge eater. There are days that I only eat 1 meal a day because I forget to eat--time conflict due to overlaps in travel schedule or just plain too busy.

Humm that's funny. I tried my theory but I too had the same 'broken line' effect. So I tried this without copying and pasting to a new file layer: Image rotate arbitrary 45 degrees clock wise (CW) --> rotate 90 degrees counter clock wise (CCW) And this is what I got It seems like when you just do 45 degrees CCW I get the same effect. I have no idea why... that's puzzling. I wonder if the compression is showing moir? cause?

I believe your issue is caused by not having the same dimension when you rotate. For example, the diagonal length is always greater than the side length. When you rotate the image to 45 degrees, the diagonal length is shrunken to the length of the side. A simple geometry flaw. This is what I would do. Copy that image and paste it to the much larger image layer. So if your image is 40x40, copy it and click on new, make the new file's dimension to 60x60 then paste. See if that solves your image degradation. I'm moving this to Software from Computers section.

I have been reading up on search engine's ability to cache one's site and I realized that FRAME is something these search engines don't really like. You can read it on Google's search FAQ and just recently my page was cached by Yahoo after taking down my frame index page to no frame page. So here is what I would like to do and I would like you super coders help. PHP seems to be the best choice since when using INCLUDE command my index page includes not only my three separate pages in one, but it helps to have content rather than showing only <FRAMESET name=topFrame rows=68,* frameBorder=0 framespacing="0" border="0"> <FRAME name=treetop src="EN_treeTop.htm" noResize target="mainpage" scrolling="no"> <FRAMESET name=mainFrame cols=200,*> <FRAME name=contents src="EN_Tree.htm" target="mainpage" scrolling="no" noresize> <FRAME name=mainpage src="EN_intro.htm" scrolling="auto" noresize> </FRAMESET> as a main page. This is how I had my page laid out. I designed it this way to resemble your regular Windows help familiarity navigation. Attached figure 1. I had it this way so that the BOX 1 and BOX 2 were never reloaded when a selection from BOX 2 (a tree style expandable/collapsible menu) occurs and only BOX 3 will load the intended page. It was fine and it worked beautifully. But now, I would like to have this as PHP. This is how my index page's code is: <html> <? include 'top.html' ; include 'menu.php' ; include 'main.html' ; ?> </html> I already have the PHP navigation menu made for BOX 2 but whenever I click on the link, it opens up in new page. Instead of using FRAME, I have those laid out as TABLE. My questions are: 1)Is there anyway I can target the link to the BOX 3 using TABLE's command (like name="main") from menu click on BOX 2? 2)Could I still use JAVA coded menu.html (the original menu) instead of menu.php? 3)If TABLE isn't the answer, could you recommend me the right one? For a working demo (not mine) please refer to http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ page and see the concept that I have in my mind. Except that I would like to refrain from using FRAMEs. Thank you.

What is your concrete proof to base this kind of claim? Your title is also weak. Are you by any chance referring to the post we had http://forums.xisto.com/topic/24718-nuclear-war-scenarios-who-will-start-it/ here about a Chinese General Zhu Chenghu just commenting a possible scenario? It's not news if there isn't a supportive fact(s). I can only take it as a mere rumor. If you forgot to include the news article or a report, please use the REPORT! button below your post and let moderators know what to edit it. Thank you.

You're welcome, Jane. I hope my words weren't too stiff (I've been told my writing style sounds like a punishing tone of voice).Just to let you know that when you access your cPanel (the main control for your hosting account) you will see that Xisto has included many scripts that you don't have to start making from the scratch. Formmailing is one (formmail is a program that gather's visitor's information and mails it to you) and shopping cart is another one. Although I personally do not use the shopping cart scripts we have few posts that deals with questions and proper ways of infusing with your website.Take your time and please ask any questions you might have.

Please check the PM I sent you regarding your account. Acidify, we don't mean to embarrass you or mean you any ill wills. There's been some concern with your site and it was brought to OpaQue's attention. Please refer to this topic http://forums.xisto.com/topic/26732-is-this-site-content-illegal-complaint-against-Xisto-hosted-site/ Thanks. I'm moving this from General Talk to Hosted Members Area.

Agreed!Please read each forum and sections thoroughly before attempting to post a new topic. This topic is closed. Please direct all your responses to either of links found above or search of your own.

The hosting plans are only distinguished by the amount of storage space and allowed monthly bandwidth. Regardless of your hosting plan, the hosting credit is the same. It is determined by the length and quality. Every plan will have reduction of 1 hosting credit per day. The length and quality of your post will determine how many hosting credits you earn per post. As long as you do not activate your hosting you will not lose your hosting credits. However, you are going to have to talk to OpaQue or Johnny (and soon NilsC) regarding canceling your current application and reapply for the package 2. The reason that your hosting credit resets to 2 is for this exact reason. As I have stated at the thread you enclosed, if a person would to post and collect 100 credits and ONLY loses 10 (or 30) credits when hosting is activated, this forum may not see that person for the next 90 (or 70) days. This forum was designed to encourage all members to be active and participate in the forum discussion. Think of free web hosting as just the reward for your participation. You are right. The resetting of a hosting credit is not described in TOS or board rules. However we do have many topics that were asked regarding this matter. Jane, I would PM OpaQue or Johnny regarding your current situation. Explain to them that you would rather have the package #2 instead of your already approved package #1. And wait for their response. But be prepare to go ahead and activate your hosting and upgrade later. However, you will find later that posting becomes very easy and you will earn your credits in no time. Just on the side note: if you find yourself having real difficulties keeping up your hosting credits you can purchase hosting credits through OpaQue OR purchase a paid hosting. They are really affordable. Please go to the main forum page and look for Xisto - Web Hosting information, located just under the green text "Hosting Credits." Xisto - Web Hosting offers several different paid hostings for your needs. Thank you.

It's definitely downloadable. When Cokestudio forbids of having these modifications and have banned members in the past, it is illegal to use them. And I believe the TOS for our free web hosting are no links providing illegal materials as well as hosting them. I would urge the member to take illegal materials down ASAP. And get a promise from that member never to do such foolish thing. Give that member another chance with a warning--god knows OpaQue has given so many others second chances But if that member refuses to comply it's better to lose one member than losing the entire Xisto.

Here is my advice. If you need all the space you can get on package #2 (150mb) then WAIT and apply for package #2. If you don't know how much you need but want to start your website right away, apply for package #1 (20mb).When you have package #1, it will take another 30 credits to upgrade to package #2.

Moving your topic from General Talk to Real Life Experiences. Please, please be aware that we have designated forums for this. Make yourself familiarize with the forum structure.

Upon further investigation by the member, it turns out that the hosting space was maxed out. There was no way to explain without knowing this status. So you are off the warning this time. But DO NOT double post. Even if you want to double post, don't. Wait until someone replies. Remember, double post earns you another warning adjustment. Double post means that you are posting right after your post.----- Topic problem solved, thread closed -----
