  1. Welcome to the Trap... *wait* ... I mean Xisto.Anyways, get to reading the HTML/CSS and Website Sub-forums, then onto the PHP and Javascript stuff. Lots of good information around here. If you have any questions, post them into the right section and someone will reply.By the way, are you a newbie at web sites? or do you have some experience?
  2. It is critical that you consider the source of the information you are looking at.As an example, the information from an 'expert' or 'academic' would care more weight than information posted by some high school drop-out (unless the topic was about where the best place to spend an afternoon at the beach, if you get my drift).As for trusting the Interweb with respect to personal information, a good guideline would be to never put information on the Interweb that you do not want your Grandmother to see, because she will have access to it... guaranteed.
  3. I doubt very much that you will be able to find this on the Interweb unless you have several accounts all ready to sign up for their service and they may give you some space as a form of commission.Good luck with your search.
  4. Recently bought a new laptop and wondered if anyone might take a look and comment on the Specs.It is used for general work, cruising the interweb, emails and some light Web Development stuff.No gaming or heavy graphics.Asus X53 with an i5 rated at 2.5 Ghtz8 G RAM 1033750 G HDDOnboard Intel graphics - 1 Gig dedicatedWireless N(1) 3.0 USB and (2) USB 2.0Full Specifications can be found at http://www.bestbuy.ca/ns/Errors/404.html bought a Seagate 3 T External HDD for use as a backup system for this machine.I'm happy about the machine and disk drive.Let me know what you think about it.
  5. I am saddened by this event and wish to send out condolences to the victims and their families.Although we do not know the motives for this attack, it can not be for a good reason.There are about 30,000 deaths in the US by gun assaults each year. When will something be done about these tragedies?
  6. Specify what you have for Graphics Card or chip as well.
  7. How are you creating the PDF? What software are you using?Different methods might cause a different answer here.There should be a method to password the file.
  8. Aug 02/2012Just installed xammp and skype on a new laptop and the procedure has changed a little bit.In Skype, select Tools > Options > Advanced > Connection and then un-tick the Port 80 selection.
  9. B sure to read the information found in this link: http://forums.xisto.com/topic/61592-credit-system-v30-online-resolved-free-web-hosting-domains-dedicated-ip-digital-certificate-managed/ and register for the mYcents program afdter you sign up for the Forums.As Sheepdog says, size of posts is important, but be careful not to "Fluff it up" or it will be considered to be Spamming.Take your time and think of a good reply to other posts and use complete sentences, for example. One liners will not earn as much and may even bedeleted.Good luck and best wishes in your Hosting.
  10. They can both be configured to use Port 80, but you will only be able to have one of them running at a time. You needs to be careful about whether to auto start one of them and make certain it is stopped before firing up the other Server.Another solution is to alter Apache or IIS to listen/use Port 81 instead of the typical Port number 80.A downside to changing the Port number is that the Port would need to be identified in the URL .ie: http:// localhost:81 becomes the address of your localhostSitepoint has a decent article here: https://www.sitepoint.com/run-apache-iis-same-pc-2/ that also outlines how to use batch files to start/stop the Servers.
  11. Actually, the levels of the major aquifers in North America are low due to the usage by the residents.There is more water being pumped out of the aquifers than Mother Nature is supplying, so the levels are dropping.Shallow wells are not enough. They need to be drilled deeper.But the big picture needs to be reviewed here. By continuing to pump water from deep wells in quantities the aquifers can not supply, eventually, these aquifers will be empty unless something changes. And this has been going on for many years. This phenomenon is not due to the current drought in the USA. The drought just makes the effect more noticeable.Water is the world's next oil.Are you prepared to go to war over a glass of water? It will be happening soon enough some place on this planet.
  12. Is this Migration scheduled yet?Please post the scheduled time and date when it is known, thanks OpaQue.
  13. Try using a shift and enter together when entering the message.
  14. I will add this to my Reading List. Thanks for the referral.
  15. Top right hand corner of your News Feed page,Down pointing arrow head.Click there.
  16. There is an error in the SQL code, but since the Form data is changing on each submission, we need to see the actual mysql code as it is failing.Use a php Echo statment just before the INSERT to display the MYSQL statement and then check to see if the same code complete with your data will work in another situation.Use the echo'd out statement in the mysql console or PHPMYADMIN to see if the statement works in another client. $insertSQL = sprintf("INSERT INTO chapterstatus (bookID, chapter, pages, startDate, needsBy, completed) VALUES (" .$bookVar. ", %s, %s, %s, %s, %s)", GetSQLValueString($_POST['chapter'], "int"), GetSQLValueString($_POST['pages'], "text"), GetSQLValueString($_POST['startDate'], "text"), GetSQLValueString($_POST['needsBy'], "text"), GetSQLValueString($_POST['completed'], "text")); echo $insertSQL ; // this should printout the actual SQL being tested. Cut and paste into another client mysql_select_db($database_connWill, $connWill); $Result1 = mysql_query($insertSQL, $connWill) or die(mysql_error()); $insertGoTo = "addChapters2.php";
  17. What activities do you have besides school?It is important that you get some physical exercise during the day and each day.Go for a walk before you go to bed, or go swimming for an hour per day, or do a few miles of jogging.I believe there are three important aspects to being Human. Spiritual, mental and physical. We need some balace in each of these areas in order to lead a full life.If you are not sleeping properly, becoming more active will assist you in sleeping, which will lead to better performance at your classes.
  18. please define "virtual world".If you mean "how do I earn my free web hosting?", you need to register and start earning credits (mycents).
  19. The excess chemicals are carried by the run-off into the ground water reserves (aquifers) which stores water underground. Eventually, by way of the water cycle, the water and chemicals do end up in the oceans in larger quantities than the oceans can normally remove, so the ocean's chemistry is changed by these chemicals which upsets the 'normal' biology of its ecosystem and their equilbrium. Once this natural balance is disrupted, problems begin.
  20. I would point out that the original poster does not relate eating cakes as a causal effect to water pollution in their posting, but the fact that many of the chemicals used on grain fields in the Mid-west do, in fact, end up in the water taps and the water supply. When it rains, the fertilizers and chemicals enter the run-off or leech into the local acquifers and accumulate there. Eventually, these undesirable chemicals end up in the oceans.The oceans have limits to how many of these chemicals, and limits on the concentration of these chemicals, which it can contain without affecting the eco-systems found in the waterways. Humanity needs to be aware of the importance of its water supply and stop polluting it or suffer the consequences.
  21. Show the code used for the previous INSERT statement which determines theLAST_INSERT_ID()

    Yahoo Mail

    I use yahoo.ca and notice the same slow response when requesting the log-in page and, once that hurdle is over, there is a delay until the full list of my Inbox appears, but it is a fast response after that."Enterprise" level Servers such as Yahoo Mail are not as responsive as what you expect from a typical Web Server since there is much more going on behind your request for a page. They have security checks and other issues to deal with which normal servers do not. I know you might be expecting me to explain something like a short-cut around the slow response time, but there really isn't one. It is the price you pay for security at the Server. Not to mention that there is a big chunk of data on the data drives for them to be sorting through in order to provide you with your mail. As for the ünsolicted yahoo messenger requests, these are Spammers that are trying to contact you, so simply decline them and / or block their rerquests. No way around them, either.
  23. Sami,Discussing the installation of Pirated Software violates the Terms of Service here, so I will be locking this Topic.Any further discussions about illegal activities will result in a Warning.
