Hello everyone, I would like some guide on formmail (or form mail) when submitting via HTML. When I tried to use http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/, where "mydomainname.com" is my domain name I get an error saying: Sorry I can't send to test999@hotmail.com. Is test999@hotmail.com on this server ? Part of my script calls for <span style='color:blue'><form action="http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ name="myform" onSubmit="return validateForm(this)"></span> Above is the exact line from my coding. Am I missing something? Would I need to insert "method="POST" as well? In the past trial, the error message was POST not allowed in this server. Furthermore, where could I find more about the variables associated with FormMail.cgi? I would like to make sure that I am using correct variables and not making my own. Thank you in advance

I Need Help, I Cant Find My 2xblive.trap17.com Account
BuffaloHelp replied to venom230's topic in General Discussion
I have my hosting activated and uploaded all necessary files.But sometimes, usually the first hit of the day, when I type my url address it returns as "The Page Cannot Be Displayed"--the old familiar page error message. I have to type "mysite.net/otherpage.htm" and then it kicks back in.My questions is:Is my hosting service up at 99% or the time or comes back from a sleep as soon as my site is accessed?I would have been content if it was just a fluke, but it's at least one a day (and like I said, only the very first time it's called for)Thanks in advance. -
Using Autoexec With Windows Xp Professional?
BuffaloHelp replied to beeseven's topic in Science and Technology
I'm not clear on what you are trying to do, but if you want certain programs to run as soon as you start your computer and go into the GIU phase:Simply place a shortcut in your startup folder. Right?You can drag a shortcut, place it over the START, ALL PROGRAMS, STARTUP.You may reconfigure the shortcut by right click, properties, and tell it to start in maximum or minimum sized window, etc.Good luck. -
Gmail As Your Storage scripts can be found anywhere, free
BuffaloHelp posted a topic in The Internet
During my search for scripts for my site, I have found the followings: Gmail downloader http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ This script logs into your account and downloads files stored. You can use it to link the files to be shared and transferred. gDrive http://mods.cc/modules/news/ With this program you can upload higher than 10MB per attachment rule set by gMail. https://www.hightail.com/ https://www.hightail.com/ Speaking of attachments, if you need to send more than what your mail box can handle, this site will offer up to 1GB attachment. Simply upload to their website and send the link to be downloaded to a recipient. Cool, ain't it? And last but not least, gMail storage drive https://www.allscoop.com/gmail-storage-drive.php This handy thing-a-ma-bob allows you to use your gMail account as virtual file storage. You can access your files within Internet Explorer! I think you can do so much with that. Good luck -
The Space do you think we will ever live on the moon??
BuffaloHelp replied to hellgate's topic in Science and Technology
May I be cynical for a moment? We, as a human race, cant even resolve the hunger issues right here on Earth. We have yet to explore fully the ocean and its pure abundant resources. We cant even get along with one another. We are still fighting this game of war to capture more land as possible, and expand the territory all in the name of the good things. We send hate letters, bombs, hurt one another, threat, steal, cheat, hit that iggy button on the chat room, etc. We as a human race simply cannot do well in mass group. And were expected to live on some air tight container where one false move and the whole place capsize like aluminum can in the recycling bin? It just seems like were some sort of termites where we use up all the recourses in one place and move on to another. Theres a word for that in your dictionarya virus The Matrix. Theres an old saying in Far East, fix your fence before you can fix your neighbors -
The most influential book I have come across is The Catcher In The Rye by J.D. Salinger. Perhaps it was introduced to be by the greatest 7th grade teacher (United States grade system-a.k.a. middle school). Perhaps it was the way she took the time to explore the fire of the author when he conveyed the message. Perhaps it was the way the sun hit the glass window and illuminated her beautiful, long, blonde hair...ha ha ha. I think most of us remember the very "first" things. And my very first crush was my 7th grade teacher (but I assure you that I am no pervert). The way the main character swung from one extreme emotion to the next; I felt the book was a direct reflection of my troubled soon to be teenage years. "Everyone's a phony." I had the rage. I had this sickening feeling that my life would be over by the time I reached 17 years of age. I had a premonition that the entire world would be on flame by the year 1999. Boy is my face red now. Adolescent is a strange time during one's life time. One builds, and rebuilds one's self image in order to find out how one fits into this society. I think this book explained the course of adolescent's journey and that's why I have the fondest memory for this book. Christopher

You didn't leave anything to go by...first of all, what kind of internet connection do you have (DSL, cable, wire, telephone) and are you using a router (I guess it's given but to make sure) or a hub? If it's a hub and you are serving one of the computer as a DHCP service, is the hub active (switch) or passive?Let's start from this one and we'll work on it. Sometimes you have to set your router to connect/allow direct connection to your game server, i.e. http://www.gamezone.com/ port:(****) etc. Otherwise, it will interferer with your internet surfing and vice versa.Cheers.

heavensounds I do not believe one needs to have preload images. One's browser accesses images, for this discussion sake, when the browser calls for and when the viewer clicks on the link (does this make sense?). But here is a thought: What if one's page contains a tree menu made up with graphics as a background or such? And within that tree menu there are submenus that also require graphics as a background...etc? When a viewer expands a particular menu tree, it will take a short time to load graphics it needed to show it as one programmed. But in the mean time, the viewer would see that "ugly" X picture until that graphic is fully loaded. So, the conclusion is that it just makes the viewing page a little enjoyable (as I tried to say on my previous post). However, if one's hosting service has limited bandwidth one might face a problem. By preloading images one is using up bandwidth that perhaps might not have needed by the viewer. And thus, the browser downloads that entire graphics to the viewer?s cache and never gets the chance to be "used." I have a tree menu style that mimics window's help menu (with closed and open folders, little dotted lines to connect them) and each graphics are 1k. Now it may not be much but, 1kB x 26 categories x 3 graphics per category = 78kB. I have an average unique visitor of 58 a day so that's 78kB x 58 = 4,524kB (4.5MB). That's 31.668MB a week, 126.672MB a month (4 weeks)... it adds up. So, decide how you want to present your web page and use it discretionally. Good luck.

Well, first of all, you have <!-- and --> placed and that'll make it null for this script. You are also missing the ; at the end of each line. So make your adjustments as follows: <script language="JavaScript"> Image1= new Image(); Image1.src = "Slice3_over.gif"; Image2 = new Image(); Image2.src = "Slice4_over.gif"; Image3 = new Image(); Image3.src = "Slice5_over.gif"; Image3 = new Image(); Image3.src = "Slice6_over.gif"; </script> I have actually used this script in the past. As my list of graphics that I wanted to preload in order to amplify the web surfing experience, I changed all my graphics name to 1.gif, 2.gif, etc. And I simply added i=="0", Image(i)... i++. Honestly, I'm not even sure if it's working right since I moved all that scrip into seperate .js file and just call from the body section. Good luck. P.S. If it does not make any sense of what I wrote...it's probably due to lack of sleep. I'll come back to this if you need me to.

Hi there, How comfortable are you with java scripts? Link in ref: http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ Follow the direction on that page. Replace the text to the display you need. Make sure to download the java applet and place them in the correct directory. Although java may not run on all browsers or anyone who turns off the java, you will have at least fun wathing it work. I think I might add this to my own site... Cheers.

I have been searching for scripts to write to do the followings:1) validate that an applicant has all required field checked (this is to thin out who is serious and who's just browsing)--DONE2) application page (applicant fills in all form fields)--DONE3) mail the entire page content either in CSV or as is in HTML as attachment via email through web4) "optional" confirmation pageI was led to this site (http://www.email-form.com/) for a program called Form Processor Pro. This program will take care of the step 3 and 4 without saving to the server. My question is can this be achieved by writing my own perl or javascript? I wrote a javascript <form ... action="mailto:addy@addy.com"> and it calls the user computer's default mail client (this case Outlook). Well, what happens if an applicant does not have Outlook? Currently I am using "action=http://cgi.freedback.com/mail.pl; as my form mailer. The problem is that it calls for redirect to an pop-up site. What do you get for free form mailer, anyway right? Would someone direct me to a way to start writing my own code or just purchase the software?Thank you in advance.

Digital Slr Photo Camera which is the best
BuffaloHelp replied to err's topic in Science and Technology
My current (and I suppose it's my favorite) brand is Canon DSLR. Part of my job requires me to travel with models and take some stock photos for the company I work for. It took me good 6 months to decide on which brand I should go for. I considered Nikon at first (my father had his and I just had that warm fuzzy nostalgic feeling about it). But the whole point of owning a SLR, rather DSLR, is that you have the unlimited choice to change the lens that is fit for your shooting. It's amazing how Canon advanced on lens technology. Everyone has ultra wide angle lenses. Everyone has telephoto lens that can pick up a foot print on a moon (and yes, we landed on the moon--according to some other thread). But this IS [image stabilizer] technology from Canon is simply AMAZING. Instead of spending $800+ for f/2.8 lens, I can get the similar result with $400 f/3.5 with IS! Canon's DSLR sensor chip is unique, too. Their proprietary invention CMOS sensor is not only highly sensitive to low lights, it also produces less pixel noise than LCD sensor. This is great for your bulb setting exposures for steady night shots or high ISO shots. And the built in processor that combines the whole camera together--DiGiC chip. Canon is the only company that has a cpu, if you will, for the digital camera that is made just for a digital camera. So, let's count... Canon makes their own 50+ lenses, body, sensor, processor chip and own accessories. I don't think Nikon or Sony comes close to that kind of dedication in photo field. I think you get my point... Good luck. -
I would like to add for Outlook users (perhaps same for Outlook express): The default setting is "show no header" so right click on the message and select the "options". A new window will open up and read the bottom box titled, "Internet Headers". Good luck.

Hello Styx,First of all, I do not know what kind of studio you are referring to. I have to assume that you are looking into a sound studio rather than a video (editing) studio judging by your name. I hope I am making that correctly...And I will also assume that you are looking into the recording (computer system) system first because you will be doing your mastering and mixing in the computer system as well. With this given ideas here it goes:I personally do not believe that "a particular machine will be the best for the job" routine. If it's a music studio I would rather research on the sound card (input hardware) first and then decide on the computer system to match that sound card. Otherwise, you are recording no better than 16bit with 64 wave tables that every one is advertising. Once you have your sound card, you might want to draw your attention to choosing the right speaker system to play back your sound. When you are editing your music and you "think" you are hearing things, chances are it's probably due to poor quality of your sound system. Choose carefully to fit your computer system. Some speakers have unshielded magnets that will destroy your monitor if it's set too close, you know what I mean? Lastly, have what editing/recording software you want to go with. Pick a company that's been around for very long time. It'll set you back more money then you anticipated but it's worth the money when it comes to support and some free upgrades later on. ****I want to take this time to place my thoughts on PCs. With latest advancement of HT technology by intel, it's actually cheaper and easier to multi-task with just one CPU. This means, your software might be tricked into thinking that there are two processors and it'll behave better than thinking that there is only one. HT technology is only available through intel Pentium, and I believe 3.06MHz or above speed.Few hardware suggestions: (this was years ago so use it as a reference)JBL 4208 sound systemAlesis RA-100 Behringer MX series external 8 channel mixerGood luck.

Perhaps I have not used Photoshop 7x as proficient as possible, however, I do not see major difference between 7x and CS. Although, CS is much more compatible with the newer Adobe Premiere titling (supports mask and layer properties), Adobe Encore (PSD can be imported without flattening the layers), etc. Therefore, is it worth upgrading... I guess if you couldn't do it on 7x before, chances are you probably won't find/do it on CS (like me). But your attention runs towards the entire Adobe suite, especially with Premiere 1.5, you should think about upgrading to CS. *Note on price: If you or anyone you know who are in high school or university, and you are in US, you can apply for educational discount. I purchased mine for 50% off the retail price PLUS a nice upgrade rebate. Good luck
