  1. If you are using Firefox Browser, from the top left drop-down menu, select the choice of Bookmarks > Show all Bookmarks.Once you have down tis, there will be a small window where you need to select Import and Backup.I would use the HTML version and save the file onto your Flash Drive.Most modern Browser will have a similar option available, but I use Firefox most of the time and do not know exactly how the other Browsers operate exactly. Perhaps if you need more information, tell us which Browser you are using.<edit>Just opened Opera, and they have a similar selection list to export to html as well.</edit>
  2. I recently downloaded a copy of the 12.10 ISO but have not yet wiped my current version of Xubuntu (which is running under a WUBI install) so I don't have a valid platform to benchmark since the current version is Xubuntu under WUBI and the new version will be a dual-boot version of Ubuntu, however, I will let you know of my impressions after I have given it a test drive.
  3. Not sure exactly what you want to track, but Evernote is a Windows based software that will keep notes for you. And you can group your notes in Notebooks so that related notes are kept together. Google Evernote.
  4. I have had good success with Xubuntu on older machines. It uses smaller packages and works well with older, slower machines. It can be installed also using Wubi on a windows machine. For ease of updates, create a separate HOME partition to store the User files and you can update Linux without losing your data.Have you tried uninstalling and re-installing your VLC?
  5. I am sorry about what happened to the cat. The dogs were simply behaving as dogs.One approach you might consider is looking for a Dog Trainer in your area who could work with the dogs to have them not chase the cats, but this may not help with the children.If you have concerns still, take the steps necessary , ie: keep the dogs from the children. Possibly the dogs need a secure Dog run built for them?
  6. The Login and Sign up information is usually stored in a database like Mysql. Comments can often be stored in a "flat file" or txt file, but may also be databased.PHP is a good language to use with this sort of information handling. Use a PHP script to store and retrieve the information and test for its validity. There are several Tutorials in the Tutorial section here on the Trap (Xisto) site.Using Flat (text) files is easier in that you can avoid leatning the Database programming, in the long term, they do not scale well for active (large) sites. Security can also be an issue with flat files.
  7. cityzen,You would still need an index.php file or index.html inside that folder
  8. When you have concerns such as you list above, I suggest you avoid the site/software.Remember when Limewire was around? Nothing but headaches.On the other hand, investigate further to see if your concerns are valid and decide to continue avoiding the site or decide to use it based on your investigations.Those are my thoughts.It is similar to finding some food in a container in the fridge. If you need to sniff it to figure out if it might be safe to eat, I suggest you throw it out.
  9. I have always enjoyed creating my own Favicons. It can be fun to do.There are many Favicon Generators on the internet. Google it.
  10. Sheepdog,The remarks posted above reflect my own thoughts.Your husband will deal with his grief in his own way and time heals most wounds, including emotional ones.All the best to you and yours in this time of need.
  11. To power this laptop, I would use a 300 Watt 12 volt inverter to produce some AC 120 volt.I have one in my vehicle to charge my laptop and phone.Works great and found it on sale for less than $30 a couple of years ago.They are likely cheaper now.
  12. Hope that your health is improving. Get well soon.
  13. Eat less, move more works for me.Also, drinking water throughout the day, and especially prior to eating a meal, tricks your stomach into thinking that you are satiated (full).I agree that the nutritional imbalances may be affecting your diet habits, too. Best to get them checked out.
  14. Alternately, move the file outside of the web accessible portion of your account and then reference the file in the script using a "relative" link.
  15. Welcome to the site.Glad to have another "coder" around.Looking forward to reading your Tutorials.Enjoy your time here and as per above, ask questions any time.
  16. EXIT terminates the script when you can not open the data file.There is no sense in continuing if the data you need is not available.Mrdee, hope you are feeling better soon.
  17. }$handle = @fopen($file_name, "r");if (!$handle) { echo "File Handle Not Available For Use"; exit; };?><table summary="Posted Comments" ><tr class="hi_lite"> <th>Date and Time</th> <th>Sender</th> <th>Email</th> <th>Message</th><?phpif ($show_IP){echo '<th>IP Address</th>';};echo '</tr>';$row=0 ;while (($data = fgetcsv($handle, 1000, ",")) !== FALSE) {if ($row % 2) { $data_string .= '<tr class="hi_lite"> ';}else { $data_string .= '<tr> ';}if ($show_IP){$num = count($data); } else {$num = (count($data) - 1 ); }; for ($c=0; $c < $num; $c++) { $data_string .= '<td> ' . $data[$c] . " </td>" ; };$data_string .= '</tr> ' . "rnt" ;$row++;}; print $data_string ; $data_string = "";fclose($handle);?></table>Here is the php code to print the file contents to the web page. Notice that the excluded information in this sample is the IP address instead of email address, but it will not be difficult to alter to not print the email instead of the IP address. This sample also uses a class on the table row of output so CSS can be used on that class to hi-lite alternating rows. Post here if you need any more information. Glad to help.
  18. Correct. And the CSV file will be read one line at a time. Treat the data similar to a MYSQL results array.
  19. This is an example of a good use of PHP to read the csv file, drop the email address information and create the table in an html/css format.In order to do this, you need to be on a server which allows the use of PHP, which the Servers here allow.I have a page which does this for email information, but it is on a flash drive at home and I won't be there until the weekend, so if someone else could assist until then, it would be great. I will forward the code as soon as I get access to it on Saturday or Sunday.
  20. Another factor for the number of "GUESTS" is that google (or other search engine) bots searching the site are considered as guests, so at any given time they may be active on the list of people viewing the topic or page.
  21. 51 posts in one day? I haven't seen activity like that since back when St Mike was a SPAMMER. LOLI have had some terribly busy days back when this Forum was Xisto but I just do not have the time lately to post as much as I would like. And I also do not have the time to stay current with the Web coding that I used to do, so my skill set is a little bit rusty.But congrats to you for making it through the day. I'll bet those pies taste great.
  22. Which version of Linux are you using?Visit the Software Centre if you use Ubuntu or a related Linux and check for downloadable packages there.Here is a link to a Blog which discusses several Linux Anti-virus packages: http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/free-linux-antivirus-programs/ Good luck and keep us posted on how you make out. I have Xubuntu installed and might be able to help you if you need for assistance.
  23. Yes, that looks better in some regards, ie: the 4 USB 3.0 connections and the graphic resolution is better, too.I also noticed the DVD is 7200 rpm versus mine at 5400 (I think), however, it is only 6 gigs of RAM and uses a full 2 gigs for its dedicated graphics where mine uses only 1 of its 8 gigs.There are some trade-offs between the two machines.Mostly, the price is different as well, since mine was only $570 on sale versus the $800 for the Dell.I'm a cheap guy... what can I say. :blink:Thanks for the review.
  24. OpaQue,I am seeing something that you might want to know about.On the top Navbar, the Forum link is showing twice as the current "tab".I have a screenprint showing the duplicate "Forum" tab, if you need to view it, let me know.
