My favorite animal is Elephant. The largest animal on the land...They are big, they have power, but they are calm. Thats why I like elephants very much. They look innocent for me.

I didn't understand the situation. Server status showing that mysql(5.0.51a-community) service failed and a red indicator. But its working normally. I executed some queries. Everything normal. Whats wrong?

Thanks xpress mate! @ The bold text: Are you offering to make us a nice banner?

Why not buddy? I will definitely make you one, if I have time. Here I am attaching a banner for your forum. I don't know,how much size you need etc.. I just made it with your current banner size. It matches to your current forum theme. Of course not a great looking one, I agree. But definitely better than your current banner I think. Use it if you like. I will make you some nice one, if I have some free time. Because creativity needs some time Anyway, please send me your requirements, like size, color, text to display etc...

Hey, I am not a photoshop professional, so don't expect too great. Its just my hobby. OK. here's the link of the sample banner.

 

I am using both gmail and yahoo. But gmail is my favourite. My most favourite feature is its integrated chat. Gmails spam filter is doing a really good work. And another favourite feature of gmail is, we can use the same id to login into different services if we want. I am using yahoo, but I don't like its ads. Really annoying. And I hate yahoo's home page. I don't really understand what is what in their home page. You need some concentration to use it. Google is quite opposite to yahoo. Space is not important for me, because so many websites are there to offer free storage space. We need some quality features in their service.

Hmmm...If i could, I want to be a dinosaur.....No one exists today. So I want to be the first one for the present world. But, I am worrying about these scientists. Do they leave me?

Yes. Go through the trap forum first. Read all important topics, and terms of service etc...You'll find answers to almost all your doubts. For further information, post a topic and we all glad to answer them. And..........Welcome to Trap......Have a nice time here.

Yeah. I reviewed your forum. Looks nice. But the banner UK Central Gaming is not looking good. Change it. Nice theme for your ip board.

Yes. They are. I hate popups. They are really annoying. Nobody likes popups. If we put annoying popups in ourwebsites, the visitor will never comes to our website again. Popups are worst, in whatever form they may be, from a small box to a larger window. Those who opens new windows to open their advertisements are worse than the worst.

Yes. Suddenly spam increased. I am also reporting spam. Even some of the links leading to websites with viruses. These websites might harm people with less protection. I don't know why spam increased suddenly. i am reporting at least one post daily.

Most of them are fake because they are earning in the name of ours. I tried many of these, including surveys, paid to click sites, ads via emails etc...All of them are fake. I didn't even find a single one who is genuine. They are earning money when we complete a survey or when we click ads. And we are boosting their income by adding referals. But finally we are cheated. Don't go to these sites. And never believe in sites who offers a very large amount in small time. They will be definitely fake. This will stop, only when people stop thinking of money without work.

byte b = 5;

b = b * 2;

System.out.println("Answer is "+b+".");

}

The correct program is,

 

class test {

 

public static void main(String[] args){

 

byte b=5;

b=(byte)(b*2);

 

System.out.println("Answer is "+b+".");

}

}

 

Why did we add byte at b=b*2 ?

Because, java doesn't allow direct arithmetic operations with byte and short(to save from potential loss of precision). Java automatically promotes byte into int here. That is, the result of b*2 will be treated as int rather than byte by java compiler. So we are converting it back to byte by using that keyword before the expression.

 

A small suggestion. Use upper case for first letter in class name(use class Test instead of class test). It is a common convention in java.

And, Xpress, you had prior knowledge of programming with being a Java programmer, which, I assume made it somewhat easier to learn a different programming language.

Yes, I agree. Having a prior knowledge in some programming language will definitely makes it easy to learn a new programming language. But PHP is not hard. You can learn it easily by reading. All just you need is some knowledge in HTML and a database(for example, MySql).

 

If you know some basic programming skill, for example using if statements, for loops, while loops(these are almost same on all latest programming languages like C,C++,Java and many) functions etc... you are ready to write your programs in PHP by reading any book(Of course not only PHP, but any language). Because these are basics. You should know and understand them. The only way you can understand these basics is practice, practice and practice only. Practice these until you are comfort with them, and you'll find how easy it is to learn PHP. You can use any book you have.

Actually I am java programmer. I didn't know anything about PHP. I started designing a website using jsp as my server side scripting. Then I searched for free hosting on internet. I didn't find even a single webhost offering free jsp hosting. But many were providing free PHP hosting. So I started learning PHP on my own. I was really amazed with its simplicity as well as speed. PHP is very easy to use and powerful as well. I started learing PHP by downloading various books and videos available on different websites. Of course, reading is not enough. Practice is very important in programming. Practice is the key for my comfort with PHP.

the ftp add-on to the firefox browser can not give you much security, i do not trust it much, i must say.

No need to worry about FireFTP security. It supports SFTP, SSL and more. And it is cross platform. So you can use it on any Operating System. And it is available in more than 20 languages. If you have any doubts go to this link fireftp features. FireFTP has more than 7.4 million downloads.

Use FTP client to transfer your files. Download a FTP client like FileZilla. Or if you are using FireFox, install FireFTP extension.It is really nice. After you connect to your Xisto account with FTP, you will see a explorer like interface, your local files in the left side and remote files in the right side. So it very easy to transfer your files and manage your account. Easy easy...

Most most favourite sport is Cricket. Love to watch and play. I was a cricket player when I was in college. But now notime to play. Just watching it on TV. And my second favourite sport to watch is badminton.And my least favourite sport is basket ball. Not very interesting for me.

I am topper in attendance when I was in school. I was very active in school. Never skipped a class. But the scenario completely changed when I was in Engineering. Many times I skipped classes. Usually the classes were very boring. I was a Computer Science student. My syllabus is almost out of date. No use for the present world. So I didn't find any interest in the classes and started skipping classes.

Good details. Many people hate Microsoft and Windows. But everyone knows windows is great success. Windows 95 is the Operating system which changed the world and great success for Microsoft. Windows 98 is a failure, as users found nothing great in Windows 98 than Windows 95 except the addition of Internet Explorer. But Windows 98 Second Edition is success for Windows. After these, windows got this much success with Windows XP.I am also waiting what will be the next Windows Version of Microsoft. Yes, Windows 7 is the working name of their next Windows version. It was formerly codenamed Blackcomb and Vienaa. Whatever its name may be, many sources telling that Windows 7 will be designed to use less system resources than Vista. They are saying that it will use less RAM. Hope it is true.

Innosia didn't say AVG Light. He said he had AVG.

Hi Sky, refer to this innosia post...thats why I wrote that post.

I use AVG too, people say avira is better but I use AVG since it is light, don't know how avira is?

I am just giving information about AVG, because I am one of the most experienced users of AVG.

Hi tollywood. Welcome to Xisto. So you are a telugu guy. Nenu kuda(me too in telugu)

unlike others who keep showing up alerts as if The PC user has nothing to do except removing viruses and Trojans......I think antivirus should silently remove viruses..without bothering the user and without using much ram...

...Funny description. Yes most antiviruses are annoying. They should use less RAM and silent. I agree with you. But a small problem is here. I too like them work silently. But what about the False Positives? By asking what to do, they are giving you the control of your computer. So you can choose which to delete and not. If they keep deleting everything they found, you may lose most of your important files, and system may be unstable(because, what if it deletes some important system files, without your knowledge). I am not disagreeing with you. I am just telling that it is for your safety only. But I agree with you 100% on RAM usage. Almost all antiviruses except a few are resource hogs. In my opinion AVIRA is the best and next one is AVG. (I don't know much about paid antiviruses)

very funny ...I like it.

Wrong place for your discussion. Please post your discussions at the right place.

No 10MB database limit here. As per our cPanel we can use almost all available free disk space we have, for our MySql database. About the CPU limit, I didn't find any daily restrictions here till now. But you must use moderately. (Or may be I don't know it clearly)

I think you don't need to teach people what are viruses...because guys who need to know about it are regular PC users, who of course know .....

 

yes,of course you can tell people the difference between virus, Trojan, spyware, malware etc...because that is something

even regular PC users don't know ....but that's not important....

No, Most regular PC users doesn't know about viruses. Its my experience. Most of the people I know and my friends doesn't know anything about viruses. I had to assist them everytime they were infected. This is because, Viruses are just not spreading from internet. Now a days these are spreading from USB Pen drives, Memory cards, mobiles and CD's or DVD's. Most of them don't have access to internet. So they don't have any up-to-date antiviruses. And they don't know about viruses either. Only some people technical like us can see viruses because we know how a virus looks like(or a trojan) for example with fake extensions etc...Most people don't know this.

 

For example, almost all my friend circle infected by a virus with fake extension with .avi. But actually its an executable. They didn't know this, and clicked to open video and their systems infected. It was infected through memory cards of their mobile. They had antiviruses, but not up-to-date. The virus is very powerful that, even though I cleaned it with up-to-date antvirus, their traces were still left with meaning less symbols in right click. Tried different antiviruses but none of them worked. Even after formatting and reinstalling Windows, their traces left again in other partitions. Finally we had to format the entire hard disk.....Thats why I want to educate people on how a virus looks like etc...

 

I think telling people who don't have technical skill, about these trojans, dialers etc.. will confuse them.

 

we need to tell people how to fight against it...what to do if their PC is infected...many people leave it on a stupid antivirus...and if it fails to remove the virus.. they just opt to reinstall the OS....which is not a good idea...

And finally you got my idea. What I wanted is that you said above. We have to tell them how to fight against viruses.

And thanks for your interest.
