  1. Issue a PM on the Xisto PM system and I will also use the Report system to FLAG this Topic for velma'a attention.Best I can do for you.
  2. That is a Hacking attempt to inject a script for XSS, or something, included as a reminder that nothing is safe. Done. The Anti virus I use is NOD-32. Supposed to be pretty good stuff. I have sent all the information I had to their Lab, as suggested. Actually, they have an Early Detection Program that does it automagically for you, in order to include the 'item' into their thrice daily updates.
  3. Two points to consider:1. There is no way, that I am aware of, to remove the characters on a web site that are mis-behaving. The page owner needs to do what is recommended in the second part of this reply in order for the page to render correctly for user in another language.2. utf-8 is the character set for a truly global rendering of any pages you create, including translations into Multi-byte languages like Chinese and Japanese, although there are others that benefit as well. In order to avoid someone in another "locale" having the same problem, use utf-8 as the character set for the page. If your Text Editor ( ie: Notepad on windows ) has a problem saving your files as utf-8, get another text editor. Lots of the Freely available ones are capable of saving in utf-8. also, be certain to save the file "without BOM". If you save it "with BOM", there will be some peculiar characters one the first line of the file when the server issues the file for rendering and trust me, it is a pain to get rid of those things. The Meta tag used is <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />.I am not an expert, but using utf-8 and saving without Byte Order Markers (BOM) has worked extremely well for my pages and for those viewing them in another language. Simply stated, ISO-8859-1 is not multi-language friendly, whereas utf-8 is precisely that.
  4. Sources have warned that the following links, or similar, should not be "touched" or linked to. Your Anti-virus will issue a severe warning if you click to these links. It would appear that the common element is the filename in the link which follows the web protocol h t t p. h {double t} p {colon} //xxthebestxx.hut2.ru/r57.txt h {double t} p {colon} ///cgi-sys/defaultwebpage.cgir57.txt h {double t} p {colon} (a file on your account)%20script:void(0) h {double t} p {colon} //turkey.dnsdc9.com/~activ7/r57.txt h {double t} p {colon} //turkey.dnsdc9.com/~activ7/r57.txt and here are the details from an Anti-Virus program: This is a Brand New Trojan/Virus. It can not be found in a Google Search, fortunately the NOD32 Anti Virus I use was effective against it. Just another example indicating that there are IDJITS on the Internet and you should be careful. Ensure that your security is updated with an effective Anti-virus, Firewall, Anti-Spyware and all the rest. Thanks for reading. Be careful.
  5. 1280 x 800 widescreen with not a clue about the refresh rate or mhz thingies. With the FF2 Web Developer's extension installed, there is a resize option and I often use the 1024 x 800 in order to 'layer' another application under the Browser window so switching between them is easier. Just structure the layers so a portion of the second application extends past the right-hand side. Also, i have moved the Taskbar to the right side and have it on auto-hide. When I mouse over the right side of the screen, it pops out and doesn't cover the Browser, either. I'll take a screenie and post it later... *edit* Here is what my basic Desktop looks like: The desktop shown above is called Launchy and is available at the SourceForge site. A key sequence opens different applications, and another key sequence allows you to move between open applications. There is absolutely 'nothing' on the visible screen except the blank Desktop. everything gets hidden, but is easily accessed. Cool, eh? And here is a partial picture with FF, an editor behind it, and the Taskbar on the right popped out.
  6. I just answered a similar question on another thread. Here is the link: http://forums.xisto.com/topic/52218-file-transfer-from-angelfire-to-Xisto-ps-i-use-my-wii/
  7. As for installing IPB on your account, you must purchase the license. Illegal copies are not allowed on the Xisto Hosting Accounts and the Install package checks serial numbers and stuff, so do not attempt to install IPB unless it is a legal copy. Your account includes fantastico, which is an automated script installer. You can use that to install the available scripts, and phpbb2 is available through the fantastico program, but it will not be a copy of phpbb3, unless it has changed lately. In general terms, you need to create a MySql database on your account through the Mysql Manager in the Cpanel, create a User for that databse, upload the files to the correct folder (public_html or public_html/forum), modify the config file to include the MySql information, the script location, etc, and then migrate to the install.php file using your Browser. Those are general guidelines for installing, so don't use them exactly as written. Each package is different and these general guidelines are generic by nature. Once you have decided which software you actually want, check the Tutorial section because chances are there will be some instructions available there. As an aside, have you seen the AEF Demo Forum set up at http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ ???

  10. Is this Legal?I am not familiar enough with the 'gaming' stuff....Could someone else please check this. thanks.
  11. Check the Tutorial Topics. There's about a thousand of them in there.Locking the Thread.
  12. It apparently thinks you have a bad user name or password.And that script is using HTML2.0, a couple of generations old. Probably not completely understood by today's Browsers, but then again, I yearn for the simpler times...
  13. Wrapping an Anchor tag around an Input tag is just Waaaayyyyyy WRONG!!!!! Explain to the nice people what you are trying to do and someone will assist you. http://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_input.asp http://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_a.asp
  14. In case you haven't noticed, I have a different Avatar display on the Forum each time the page is refreshed. For those of you who might want the script to do that, here is the one I am using: < ? php // lose the spaces $filesp = glob('*.png'); if(empty($filesp)){ echo 'no images found...die<br>'; die(); } else{ foreach ($filesp as $file) { $img_array[] = trim($file); } } shuffle($img_array); //select image at random header("C o n t e n t{dash}t y p e: image/png"); // replace the {dash} and lose the spaces $image = $img_array[0]; $image = imagecreatefrompng( "$image" ); imagepng($image); imagedestroy($image); ?> How the script works $filesp = glob('*.png');if(empty($filesp)){echo 'no images found...die<br>';die();} The png files are found and stored into a variable using the glob function by matching the last four characters of the filename.I there are no png files found, the script dies. foreach ($filesp as $file) {$img_array[] = trim($file); }}shuffle($img_array); //select image at random The loop stores the file names into an array which is then shuffled to randomize the list. header("C o n t e n t{dash}t y p e: image/png"); // replace the {dash} and lose the spaces$image = $img_array[0];$image = imagecreatefrompng( "$image" );imagepng($image);imagedestroy($image); The header for the file type png is output to tell the receiving Bowser what to expect, then the first element of the array is chosen for creation, and the image is output and destroyed. Implementation Save this script as a file named index.php. Place the index.php file into a folder named image.png (yes, that's correct) and load all the png format Avatars into the same folder. The images must be png files for this to work properly. Call the script using http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ as the name of the image you want to display and the script finds all the png files in the folder, shuffles them up and spits out the first one in the list. How cool is that??? In order for this to work, you need a Hosting space that allows php code and a method to upload the files and images. You can use any size of image that you want, but many Forums only allow a 90 px x 90 px size, so I would stick to that size for the images. And restrict the number of images so the script runs quicker, too. Pre-size the png's to the size you need, like 90px x 90px, so the Server doesn't have to re-size them. Irfanview is a free download and includes a Batch Convertor that will change your existing images to png and resize them at the same time. Highly recommended. And if you need this as a jpg or gif based script, let me know... I might even make a multi-format version...
  15. A second page should appear with a listing of the files and their path.***This method will not overwrite existing files*** so be certain to delete any of the pre-existing folders and files BEFORE you un-zip.
  16. Sten, Maybe simply tell us exactly what you are trying to do here. You appear to be writing a script to dynamically create an image. And now you want to save it? Why? Just use the script when you need the image... If you really need to save a copy of the actual Image, run that script in your Browser and do a rt-click, save image as... to save it to your desktop. That's the beauty of the script, you don't need to save the image

  18. Google also has the Advanced Search page which allows you more control over what and how the search is performed. https://www.google.ca/advanced_search?hl=en is the one I use, being in Canada, but there should also be one for your Locale. Just go to Google and select the 'advanced' search feature.
  19. Check this link for a paid solution http://www.fsprolabs.com/ Might also check with the Give-away-of-the-day site. They have a library of Freeware that might do what you want. There is a link in the Freebies Topic to their main page and then look on that page for the Freeware Library. https://www.giveawayoftheday.com/ or maybe https://www.giveawayoftheday.com/
  20. Have you searched the Tutorials Topics?Seems to me there were a couple of Topics in there that might be of interest to you.
  21. Use the search feature to search for log-in scripts. Most of them use a Database to store information and email address is typical for the sort of data you would ask for in any decent script. (or browse through the Tutorial Topics.)You might also find some good tutorials about setting up and using the database, too.
  22. I use, and recommend, https://xisto.com/ , a sister company to the Xisto.com
  23. Do you need the English version?
  24. Try emptying your Browser Cache.The method is different for each Browser, so tell us which Browser you are using, please.
  25. What is the IP in question? Send me a PM if you don't want to display it openly.Can they connect to the Xisto Forums?
