Cron jobs usually are used to run a file containing a script. I was messing around with cron jobs awhile ago and found out that the php can only have php functions, it can't have any outputs or it doesn't work right. So basically you specify a file that the php code is in and make sure it only has php stuff in it with no outputs like echo's or print's for more information on cron jobs, look here: http://forums.xisto.com/topic/6321-cron-jobs-cron-jobs-in-cpanel-cron-jobs-cron-jobs-using-php/

That is interesting.... I think it is the first flaw I have heard of google having, besides that one time when someone hacked google and changed everything to 1337 language. The awsome thing is you are able to choose the 1337 language in the language settings :(But yea, it is very good that a hacker did not exploit it, it could have been bad for google if someone exploited it.

I would have to agree with you. They should have done something like what they did for lord of the rings. They had an extended version you could buy that adds a bunch of scenes to the movie. It would be awsome if they would do something like this but I kind of doubt it

Thats a bad idea.... talking about making viruses on a forum such as this.... anways, to get on topic... The only way I can think of, of how to do this would be to use the "exec" function in php. You would have to figure out the executable for shutting down a computer and also know the parameters for shutting down your computer. I used to know these but I can't remember them right now. This would only possibly work with windows, I'm not sure what you would do for linux. Also, note what borghunter said.... If you decided to try shutting down a server that is not own by yourself, then you will most likely get banned from that place and possibly other consequences.

So far, I think the best easter egg that I have found are the ones on the Extended versions of The Lord of the Rings. The easter egg on each of the three movies have an amuzing video. If you have the the extended versions, you should check them out.....Go to the chapter selection, then go away to the last chapter. Once at the last chapter, you'll be able to go down once more and then press enter. Enjoy :lol:I like easter eggs, they are usually fun extra's or cheats.... I have done some programming myself and it is fun to add an eater egg here and there.

lol, just an idea that I thought of.... didn't think it would actually be that :\ But yea, mine is limited too..... Maybe yours is just special Heh, i need to clean up the directories..... and delete some backups to make more free space

The only thing I can think of is what buffalo said, something to do with when each of you guys joined. My guess is that you joined before your friend when everything was unlimited, and then when your friend joined.... the admins changed it to limited.The only other thing I could think of, though I don't think this is is, is maybe the rank you are on the forum.... Meaning how many posts you have made. So after you made so many posts, the admins will assume you are responsible and should recieve unlimited of everything. Where as someone that has not that many posts yet won't have unlimited.Just a couple ideas, one of the admins should be able to answer the question.

Welcome, this is an excellent community of programmers, gfx designers, web designers, and many other people.... I like this forum the most because it is very helpful and I can get help with things I don't know how to do. This community is a good place to turn to for help and fun :lol:If you need any help or have any questions, feel free to pm me or anyone for that matter We are all friendly....

I like the idea of the vacation mode.... But I think 12 weeks is a bit long, I would think at most 1 month before your account gets suspended would be plenty long. I'm pretty sure 1 month is long enough for basically anyone and for most vacations. The only people I can think of that this would not work is for military personnel that are deployed for months at a time.Then again, I can see the opposite side of this.... If someone is going for a vacation, they should just posts a lot the week before they leave so that they have enough credit to last until they get back. I'm leaving in 4 days to go to Florida, I'm just posting a bit more before I leave so I have plenty of credits saved to last me until I get back.I'm not quite sure which is better, to have vacation mode or not.... But it's mainly up to the admins to decide. Just giving my input

As everyone else has said, at least mostly, you can't download invision power board 1.3.x anymore. If you do find a link or mirror to download it, you will be getting it illegally and I would advise not using it, especially on Xisto because if an admin finds out that you got it illegally, then your account could get banned.... But if you did download it when it was still free, through Invision Power Board's site, then it is fine to use. Since you got it from their site, it is okay to still use it. Now, with their 2.x versions, you can only download a free trial.... which has limitations and disables itself after so many posts/members. Other than the trial, you have to pay for it or use one of the free invision power board hosts... I still like IPB more the phpbb but I'm not sure anymore since IPB is no longer free......

If they do this, it will bring a lot more profit for windows vista. In my opinion, its a really smart idea on their part. Do you have any links for information on this? I would like to actually see articles on this and any additional information that might be there.... Thanks

I occasionally back-up my personal files and information.... What I like to do is when my sister brings her computer home from college, I just back-up my data to her computer so I have a duplicate. She has a 160 gig hdd and doesn't use it for much, so she has a lot of free space.My brother thought of a pretty good idea if you like to occasionally re-format your hdd or to somewhat protect your files from viruses. What he did is made 3 partitions on his hdd. One is for windows xp Professional edition operating system, one is for the fedora operating system, and the other is for his personal data, music, movies, etc.... When re-formatting your hdd, you only have to re-format the partition with your operating system. So then you don't have to back up your data to do a reformat. Just an idea I thought I would share with everyone, it has worked very nicely for my brother. I'm planning on do this to mine once I decide to reformat my hdd again

I would have to say doom III or World of Warcraft..... they are both awsome games

lol, jlhaslip you get really technical and have all kinds of stats and facts :huh:But yea, basically you can have the mysql database as large as you want, as long as its smaller than like 2 gigs as jlhaslip said above.... but if you have hosting on trap or something like that, you will never be able to have a 2 gig mysql database because your hosting account isn't that big Mysql databases count towards your disk quota, so you can't have a database bigger than your disk quota.

I, myself am not really good with php.... But I think this is what you would do. Have the script get te status of the server, then have something like if($status != !statuscheck){echo('do whatever update to the status of the server here');} I'm guessing that would work. I think to get rid of the delay, you would want to get the info then check to see if its the same or not, and then have it post the new info if it is different. Just make sure you have the if statement in the loop you are using to have it check every 30 secs. Hope it helps, remember I'm not really good at php.....

It depends on what type of processor you have. For like a Pentium 3, the max temperature it can reach before you have a chance of burning it out is around 75 degrees celcius. For my computer, I am running a 1ghz amd Thunderbird. It normally runs on my computer around 23-24 degrees celcius. A couple sources says I can run my cpu up to 90 degrees celcius though I doubt I would ever get it that high. For basically all computers, 43 degrees celcius is around a normal running temp, especially for newer computers that heat up more. For a little more info, and to find where your computer fits for highest cpu temperature you would want it to go.... check this site out: http://www.heatsink-guide.com/content.php?t=maxtemp.shtml Also, its not necessarily bad if it reaches these temperatures.... It's bad to constantly get these temps. When your computer gets up to its max temp, it starts to run slower... But if it does get to the point where your processor might get damaged, the computer won't let this happen. It will crash on you and give you error messages.

Like buffalo said, please give us a name to search for it.... or even better, give us a link to it.From what you have said, it isn't the best gaming system.The best gaming computer ever.... would have something like this:it would have a top of the line processor like: AMD Athlon 64 FX-60 2.60GHz Dual-Core Processormotherboard: Asus A8N SLI Premium NVIDIA Socket 939 ATX Motherboardaround 4gigs of ram250+ gigs hddliquid cooling + case fans = perfect cooling :huh:I don't know if this is the best video card but two of these would be best:GeForce Go 7800 GTXyou don't need 3 monitors but 3 lcd monitors is very nice. But yea, something around those specs of a computer is most likely the best gaming computer. To make it look nice, you would get a nice see through case with led lights on the fans and glowing liquid in the liquid cooling system.Also, people might say some of the items I said like amd or the video card might not be the best..... but I'm just giving the author a general idea of whats better. Enjoy

Building your own computer is the way to go. It is much cheaper and much more custamizable. When I make my computer, I'm going to have liquid cooling, led's inside, and a nice case to make it look pretty I think that people that make their own computers.... it is a way to express themselfs and show off what they can do Self-Built computers can look a lot nicer than any store boughten. Also, you know exactly what was put into your computer. So if you ever have issues with your computer, you know everything about your computer ;)So basically, self-built computers is the best. Cheaper.... Customized.... Looks coolor.... And has nicer stuff in it.... what more could you want

Topics like these are kind of annoying because it's mostly personal opinion and the uses a person will use the processor for that determine which one is better for him/her.If someone has good experiences with one processor and likes it a lot, they will most likely stick with that brand of processor and say that the processor they use is the best.Most people arn't rich enough to actually do tests and get multiple computers with some having intel processors and some having amd processors. That is the only true way to find out which is better. Once you got the computers with both brands of processors, you would have to conduct tests that would determine the best one. Yes, people have done this and posted their results.... but I prefer to find out for myself because one never knows when an article is biased or not.In my personal experience, I have used and messed around with both intel and amd processors. I personally like amd better. I find it to be more powerful and cheaper With the new technology amd is using and integrating into their products, I can see amd doing a lot better than intel. But again, this is my opinion and its not necessarily correct or the best product.

No, you can't use gmail as a webhost. It would be nice if you could. If you send me your e-mail address, I'll send you an invite.

I'm pretty sure that google will be the top e-mail service provider for a long time. Everything that they have right now, size of account(2.5+gig) plus all of their features, will ensure that they are the top for a while. Now with these extra features they are coming out with and different new ones in the feature will help them greatly.In my opinion, the reason google is so successful is because they actually care about their customers. They treat their customers well and are very helpful. Plus they are always adding new features and support which most other companys don't I know some do add new stuff to their services but not to the extent that google goes to.

It would be useful to actually see the code to figure out specifically what is wrong..... But I have also had this issue..... For some reason php doesn't like spaces in the header. So try to remove all line spaces before the main part of the code/site, or the start of the <?php When I had this issue, I had something like this <?phpif ($username == NULL) { $username = $usercook; $password = $passcook;} setcookie("usercook","$username",time()+5000,"/"); setcookie("passcook","$password",time()+5000,"/");?><?phprest of code When I was doing this type of stuff, that space in between the php codes messed it all up and gave me those errors. So just try removing the space so it looks like this <?phpif ($username == NULL) { $username = $usercook; $password = $passcook;} setcookie("usercook","$username",time()+5000,"/"); setcookie("passcook","$password",time()+5000,"/");?><?phprest of code This could be the issue your having or something else.... From what you gave me, that's the only thing I can think of. Hope it helps

I agree with you..... I get way to much homework and lots of projects. I have yet to have a day of school without getting homework so far this year. It seems like my teachers like to assign lots of homework on the same days too. I think I average around 4 hours of homework a night or more, its not fun. It was extremely hard to do everything in the fall when I had soccer after school everyday for a couple hours.They should lighten the load What grade are you in WDSnav? 1 hour a day isn't much.....

All I have to say is THANKS! lol, now I can stop annoying the moderators

It is indeed a very good anti-virus software. I have been using avg for more than a year now. I like it a lot, way more than when I had norton or mcaffee. It isn't a cpu hog and has many nice features. One feature I like the most is heuristic analysis, which scans files for viruses that arn't out yet. I have yet to have any problems with it and it has found many viruses that norton and mcafee failed to find.I highly recommend it
