    Mysql Help

    Post the code you are using for the Database connection.And check to see if the second server allows for the 'hotlinking' of the Databases. It could be that the server is set to not allow such access. There is an apache Directive which will stop the process, I think. If it is an issued directive, you won't be able to access the Database except through their 'localhost'.Also, what are you getting for an Error when you attempt the connection?
  2. Tutorial Forum might be a good spot. http://forums.xisto.com/topic/169-tutorials/
  3. Cookies must be allowed on your computer. And check the 'Log me automatically' box, too.Other than that, I have not noticed this happening to me.
  4. IPB version 1.3 is no longer available as a download from the legal source, Invision Power Board, so installing it here is not an option. Same response as my previous reply. Installing it on the Xisto Server will be grounds for account termination.Besides, the older versions of all the Forum Software are usually not secure, so installing a copy of a Forum which is not recent is risky at best.There are loads of other secure Softwares available, or purchase a copy of the most recent IPB.
  5. First you buy the licence. Then you upload it to your account here and install it. Unlicenced versions of IPB are not allowed since they are illegal. Illegal copies on this Server will be cause for terminating your account. Period. No questions asked.Just a friendly reminder of the Terms of Service and Acceptable Use Policy.
  6. What exactly do you mean by a 'whois' script? What do you want it to do? Display the sign-on information from a Database or the ISP information from the client?
  7. Hilarious. Everyone should check this out
  8. Winter-peg, you mean?I have only ever been there during the summer and I found the city to be very nice and friendly, lots of stuff to do. I really enjoyed hanging out at the Tourist trap downtown on the River. I forget the name of the place, but it had like a Farmer's Market / Bazaar and lots of places to eat. Really cool spot to hang out and kill some time on a gorgeous summer's day. Winnipeg has a lot of History, since it was the Gateway to the West when the railroad and other modes of transportation used to pass through it while the Homesteaders travelled West. The Chicago of Canada... Lots of multi-cultural activities and a great University (or 2).Did you happen to have front row seats for the Grey Cup this past weekend?
  9. I don't know about the Law in the US of A, but I assume it woud be like syphoning gas from a vehicle, basically, you are stealing from them, albeit, a service, rather than a commodity like gasoline, but all the same, they paid for it and without their explicit consent, you would be considered a thief. I have a wireless router, but all the neighbours are out of range, so no problem. Additionally, the router I have is configured to send an encrypted signal, so others couldn't use it without hacking it anyway.
  10. What part of the Great White North do you live in? I live in BC, near the Alberta border. An hour's drive west of Lake Louise. Are you from the East? I read your Hosting Application. Good luck with that.
  11. In Economics, "money" is simple a medium of exchange. Regardess of whether they are dollars, yen, euros, or pounds, the currency is simple a representation of the value attached to it. The "points" would simply become another medium for exchanging your efforts with the purchases you choose to make. I can't see this happening because there are simply too many uncertainties and conditions placed upon the method you are suggesting. To begin with, not everyone has a computer to gain the points, so I would suggest that this approach would fail in a big way. The "currencies" we use right now would prevail.
  12. On that page I referenced up above, there was a note several scrolls down with the following bit of information on how to capture the Extension from a filename. Here is a snippet to try: $extension = substr(strrchr($filename, "."), 1);
  13. This code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd;<html><head> <title>HTML 4.0 Strict document</title> <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;charset=utf-8" > <meta http-equiv="Content-Style-Type" content="text/css" ></head><body> <p>... Your HTML content here ...</p> <p>... More HTML content here ...</p> </body></html> represents a minimum, acceptable web-page according to the W3C which is the organisation that sets the standards for the World Wide Web, or as we call it, the Internet. In another Tutorial, you can learn about the html code, but in this Tutorial, I wish to emphasis the importance of the DTD or Document Type Declaration, the first line in the sample code above. What it does is tells the Browser that a certain set of rules are to be applied to this page when the Browser renders the document. In this case, the author expects the Browser to use the rules as defined by the W3C for their Html 4.0 Strict documents and the rules are available at the link described in the DTD. (http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/). This ruleset is public as declared in the DTD. The importance of using a DTD is that 'most' Browsers will display the document in a specific manner, according to the rules as defined by the DTD in use. Of course, there are exceptions and we all know the Browser by name , but let's not get into Browser wars here. Without using a DTD, or using an incorrect one for the code you insert in the page, the Browser will be forced to interpret the code in a manner it deems appropriate, regardless of the known standards, so there will be a larger variation in the Browser rendering of the page in 'Quirks' mode. Without the DTD, each Browser uses its own set of rules and the output can be different in each Browser, so if you are experienceinfg difficulties with cross-browser rendering, also ensure the DTD used in a page is a correct, valid one for the code you have used on the page. The DTD used above is html4.0 Strict. If you intend on using it, ensure your code does not include elements which are invalid for that standard, or expect the Browser to display your page in Quirks Mode, and unpredictable results may occur. There are, of course, other DTD's and a good source of them is at the W3C site. Any questions, post here and I will do my best to answer them.
  14. Well, very few of you will know them, but my favourite College Football team would be the Golden Hawks of WLU. Nigai will know them. It is just down the road from her school, the bums.
  15. Can you post the CSS file for the page? It may have something to do with the borders, etc surrounding the div's and textarea. Are there borders for both? Maybe drop the bottom border for the div containing the icons and have the textarea borders take effect ?Specifically: this class : class="w_toolbar"
  16. Suggest you submit a ticket to the Help desk or email to support@Xisto.com providing all this information and the cpanel username, and the domain or sub-domain name, also. This may be something about the recent upgrades and all the server re-configurations. I don't see how this could be happening unless the account settings need tweaking.By the way, what do you have for your .htaccess file? anything in there that may be affecting the account permissions?
  17. Try installing an XAMPP version. It includes all you need and more. Windows XP requires some mods to the php.ini and / or the httpd.conf file. https://www.apachefriends.org/index.html Basically a one click install of php, mysql, mail server, perl, phpadmin, all the stuff you need.
  18. TeeCee, These are simply the Nominations. After this list is compiled, the voting will take place next month, so hang around and you should be knowledgable enough by then.
  19. Check out the php function pathinfo and use it for capturing the extension. http://us3.php.net/manual/en/function.pathinfo.php
  20. Here is the current project address: http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ A friend made this for me and she did a marvellous job, me thinks.
  21. Closed at your request. PM a Mod to re-open it, if required.
  22. So how do I get my building onto the Community site? I have a new "house" to add to the Project.
  23. I'm thinking that the OpenOffice.Org has pretty much got all that covered.
