I have shipped a number of items as I do a lot of selling on eBay. For something like a laptop I like to goto the UPS Store (formerly Mail Boxes Etc) and have them pack it. I use them mostly because there is a store in my town. It cost a little bit more but it is well worth it, IMHO. I go in with the item, and ask them how much they think it might cost to pack it for me. I then use the shipping calculator with in eBay so the buyer can calulate the shipping to their zip code. I'm able to add the estimated packing cost the final amount that the calulator provides. I have had pretty good luck with it being pretty close to what the actual shipping costs.

Perfect! Outstanding! The missing () were the problem. Thank you all for your generous help.

OK...so the error reads "Object expected" for this line: <td width="50%"><img src="5.JPG" width="320" height="240" onmouseover="javascript:pictureE();"></td>And all the other lines that are like it. Any help is totally appreciated.Thanks.

Hi,Need help designing a thumbnail page in frontpage. Need to have about six thumbnails aligned on the right hand side, and when you put the mouse over the thumbnail you can preview the image on the same page (as opposed to previewing it in a new window).Does anyone know a good way to do this?

Hi,Is there a way I can change my username? How involved or complicated would that change be? Would it take a long time?I no longer want to use my site for it originally inteded purpose. Therefore, I feel I need a new username to reflect my new idea. At the same time, I want a new username but I do not want to loose my credits. Am I screwed? Any help would be appreciated.Thanks.

Thanks for the help. I can do the PHP part, I get that. It's the sending it to the printer that I would like to know how to do.

Hi,Does anyone know how to create a button that will printo out the current page.What I want to do is have the user fill out a form (containing name, address, zip, etc). They will then click on a "print" button and it will print out the form data. Any ideas?Thanks.

Hi Amanda,Welcome to Xisto.com. I have been on here for a week or two and I am having a great time. I am working on building up enough credits to create a cool web site and not have to be too nervous about running out of credits.I am 33/m/boston. i'm online all day at work, so I'm pretty good with the internet. Feel free to shoot me a private message anytime!

Hi,I was the one that asked you about the content sources. I was basically trying to figure out if the content got there programatically or you had to go fetch it and then enter on your site. Seems like a lot of work to create all that content.

Wow. Very impressive site. How'd you do it all? that looks very involved.

Hi,I have a NetGear wrg614. It has worked great for quite a while now (almost 2 years). Recently however, it has been dropping connections if my cordless phone rings or we make a call with it. The cordless phone and the router have coexisted this entire time. This issue has just starting happening a few weeks ago. has anyone had experience with this sort of thing before?

Hi,I'm realtively new to PHP and I'm considering creating some login functionality. However I want a group of users to use the same loginname and password. They will be loggin infrom different machines. The users will know they are sharing the account.Can anyone give me an idea of what kind of effect this might have on my sessions? Will it create any odd hiccups or other strange things?

Thanks SystemWisdom.Can you please explain what the code will actually do?

Excellent! I think it is great. The one issue I had with the design is that the font is a little too light for me. The layout is great, very professional looking. I give it a solid 8 out of 10.How/where do you get the content? I'd love to create something similar.

Hi!I am sure you will enjoy all of the forums here on Xisto. I have been on here for a week or two and I am having fun and learning tons.I am 33/m/boston. Feel free to private message me or IM me!

Once you read some of the stuff in the book (any book will probably give you a decent foundation), I think the best way is to google for what yo are trying to do. Like if you are looking for the syntax of a 'while' statement, just google "php while loop". There are enough sites out there that you should find something useful in one or two clicks.http://www.phpfreaks.com/ has a good tutorial on session IDs.The list of mysql functions on php.net is simply nothing short of awsome!

I think there are good arguments both for and against leaving your computer on all day and all night.The argument for leaving it on: -the electronic components withing the computer will function better if they are not cooling and warming up all the time.The argument for turning it off: -leaving it on obviously uses more electricity. Even if you are not paying for it, it has its cost to the environment. That is a cost we all pay one way or another. I believe however that the monitor is the power hog.-leaving it on means the fan is running. The fan will suck in quite a bit of dust. That dust can actually insulate components causing them to heat up. More heat means shorter life span for most components. Clean out the CPU box regularly and you will avoid this danger.If you are going to turn it off, I would suggest doing so for overnight periods. I think that the start up wear and tear is too stressful to do multiple times a day.

Why would you even bother with anything NHL related? In case you haven't noticed they are not playing!! They've ditched their fans for the almighty dollar. By purchasing their crappy marketing stuff, you are inviting them to stay off the ice. Do NOT give them your money!

This may or may not be PHP related; I am THAT much of a newbie.It seems like I need to force my browser to NOT use a cahced view of pages I create using PHP. Is there any way I can make it sound refresh every time the page is loaded?

Hi and welcome. I am realtively new as well. I have been bouncing around the boards for 3 days now. I hope you find it as enjoyable as I do!

I was reading on eWeek.com that the url googkle.com will install a whole slew of malware on your PC. Be sure not to mistype when you you are entering the URL.

Does anyone use a remote access software package? I have tried a couple, but would be interested to hear about what folks thought of some of the other packages/services out there.I have tried GoToMyPC, but I didn't like having to pay for their service. Luckily I found a free one called LogMeIn.com. It works pretty well. However, I have recently had issues when I disconnect from a remote PC. It seems to hang some of me browsers. I need to use Task Manager to kill those browser's porcesses.What have you all tried? What have you found to be successful and useful?
