Too heavy for so few content.

- Download VIM (The best editor out there). - Spend 15 minutes of your life doing a VIM tutorial. - Visit HTMLDOG and do the HTML/CSS tutorials. That will be the best way to begin in my opinion.

I have the V3 and i love it. It is true that it is *BLEEP*ing expensive but it also extremly cute.

You can use the strtok() function.As a pseudocode example: char *aux; /* Buffer contains name:curriculum:gradyear:ssn:dob*/ aux = buf; /* i suppose s is a structure with the fields name, curriculum ..... and the memory for this fields has been already alloced, if not use strdup instead of strcpy */ strcpy (s->name,strtok(aux,':')); strcpy (s->curriculum,strtok(NULL,':')); strcpy (s->gradyear,strtok(NULL,':')); strcpy (s->ssn,strtok(NULL,':')); strcpy (s->dob,strtok(NULL,':'));

You do not have to use the most scripts the best in order to create a nice site. There is a lot that can be achieve by using CSS properly. Then use PHP in your site if you need to provide server side functionality. Let's say database access or functions. Also do not think that PHP was created to provide Forum functionality. PHP is a great Web technologie which can be used to build a lot of functionality and using it in forums is just the top of the iceberg.

It can be even a disco-logo. Nice work!

Hi,i would love to have tab browsing and i really do not understand why they do not support that. I am sure most of us love tabs. Does anyone knows why they do not implement tabs?By the way CSS is supported by IE6.0 not hundred per cent compliant with the standard. I hope they fix this.

Hi,I want to apply for a Web design concurrence but i have to be registered like a firma to do it. I am Spanish and maybe this particular issue works different in every country but since i am pretty sure that some of you found already some "legal" web design firmas i would like to hear about the cheapest way to do it. If there is anyone from Spain who already did it i would be perfect if he can tell me stuff.Thanks in advanced,mizako

Hi,I was workin within VoIp switch development so i think i can help a little bit in this topic. First of all advantages of VoIP vs standard telephony:- Voip is really cheaper than standard telephony (indeed pc-pc is free).- VoIp will be provided together with fancy extras. Such as Video and so on.- Voice can be compressend into data with most accuracy than standard telephony. I am sure VoIp quality will be better in a few time (if not already) than standard telephony.Disadvantages:- Operators and mobile developers are still on the path to support VoIP in huge dimension. However PTT (push to talk is already workin in the states) is already a kind of VoIP service since it uses SIP too to intiates the session.If you want to give it a try. I will give you some steps to follow:- go to http://www.counterpath.com/ and download the X-Lite a nice Vo-ip phone. - register to sipphone.com to get a sip uri. That will be the equivalet to your telephone number. - Configure X-lite that can be quite tedious but there are some tutorials on the net. I will create myself a tutorial and post it here one of these days.If you want to go to the easiest way. Try skype.com. They do not use SIP (Session intiation protocol). Instead they use a propietary protocol which does not allow you to speak with no-skype users but between Skype ones it works really well. And there is also babble.net which i will try in the next weeks. They say is cheper than Skype

200$/mo does not sound too expensive?. But how did you make it profitable.- With banners in your hosted sites.- With a Xisto kind of of solution.- Running a web design firma and hosting yourself your client designs. I think the most profitable is the trap solution but also the one which requires more work.Do you know any other posibility?

I did not find any ebooks menu. :-(

I think also that trap people is going to fast. My hosting went down today because i did not post in the last days. I could not post for reasons i will not explain here and if it is going to be so strict i do not know what i am going to do with my account. I have some doubts. Counts this post for my credits?. Because if we are realistic most of the posts here are simply spam. There are a lot of stupid polls like "Where am i from?" Or "what operating system do i use?". I was trying to post only to intersting stuff but if the way to keep my account alive is to increase the size of spam posts in Xisto i will do it.

Finally, i bougth it in "go daddy". Until now i am really happy with it. I pointed it to trap and it already works as desired quickly.. Thanks for all your feedback

Hi,First of all, thanks for your answer guys and sorry for my delay in answering but i have been really occupied. I spoke with my client and at the end the deliverables will include everything mentioned by serverph. I mean:- Web design, , web programming, hosting and domain registration.I investigate about competitions offers. I have only info about one. It is pretty expensive and they do not include a lot of extras that i can not achieve. The client told me that and finally if they considered that the thecnical quality remains almost the same (and they do not have a lot of knowledge to decide this) they will give the project to the cheapest one.The most surprising thing, they told me is that if the price of my offer is 25% smaller than the others they will discard my offer considering it not good enough.I will let you know about the end of this story.Regards,Sergio del Amo

It is the design and build. I still do not what do they want exactly but it seems they want a big site.

Hi,This week, i will have an interview to get a contract to build a website for a photographic center. The photographic center is part of the spanish state so they pay pretty well. They want to show a lot of photo expositions and special characteristics like avoiding web site image printing and stuff like that. They will may want also a shopping chart but they are not sure. I want to give them an impresion of a cheap designer to get it but also a proffesional one. How much money would you ask for a web site design (lets say quite big)?How much would you ask for the shopping chart addition?Please ask me as soon as possible.Thanks in advanced for all the answers,I really appreciate.Sergio del Amo

Amazing presentation!,Right now google is begging to be a gigant web company. Gmail has been a great move and i bet in less than a year they would have also a propetary messenger. However i do not think they would defeat so easily Microsoft. Apart from OS market, Microsoft will try to be in the top of New Media Access for sure. There is a lot of money there and Mr. Gates wants it for sure. Google is in the top now, but Microsoft has the money to defeat everyone. We will see. Maybe in 2014 we remember this prediciton. :-)

As splehati said XML can be used to store data which at the end can be presented to the user without any presentation, using css or transforming it with XSLT or XSL-FO. If you want to begin with XML maybe a good exercise will be to write an address book: Steps: - Write a DTD for an address book. - Write an xml document wich validates the DTD. - Write a xslt file which transforms the XML into XHTML for example. - Write a xslt file which transforms the XML into a plain text document (Imagine you want to have a written copy of your address book). To provide the transformation on the fly you can use php xslt module. Apache-friend PHP/MySQL/Apache distro includes it. Or maybe use nice software like XMLSpy. But that it is propetary. if you are german/french speaker: Selfhtml selfhtml.org has a good introduction to some web technologies. If you need more links, ask and maybe later at home i can give you more.

I used Hotmail in the past. Right now (i suffered the 2 Mb hotmail mailbox for a long time) and now i use GMX. I think hotmail guys made a big mistake. They did not see Gmail coming to their market. In Spain almost all the market of free email was for hotmail (few used yahoo). Then Gmail entered into scene with a 1 Gb accounts and all the google reputation behind. Also the politic of giving a account through invitiations A lot of people moved to it. There was no hotmail reaction. It took months to Hotmail guy to realize that they must give much more mailbox space or they will lose everyone. Finally they gave 250 Mb. Not too bad but too late. Gmail gave a big bite to the market. However i do not have an gmail account because i read they parse every email and with this result they show publicity. For me that is totally unmoral, even if they justified that all the mail is only read by machines.
