Is there a way to make an inline counter?? Like so that when other PEOPLE go on, it counts but other people viewing the site don't see how many people have viewed it?? So that only I can see it.? or so that everytime someone VIEWS it, I get some sort of email?/// :-? :-?Ah, Mr. Google, you didn't Google for this, did you?  Shame, shame.  There are many hit counters; see http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&q=hit+counters&btnG=Search.  However, many of the free ones will display a visible hit counter on the page.  If you want a counter that does not appear on the page, you may have to use a fee-based service.  In that case, you would be probably logon to a WEBSITE to see the stats for your site.

If you use a fee-based hosting service, you might also take a look at the site stats in your web server admin panel for your site.  Most hosting services provide a way for clients to view statistics on website traffic.  However, this may be in quite a different format than the stats you would get from an independent hit counter service.  If your web server is PHP-enabled (in fact this will work with any server-side technology) you can simply increment a counter contained in a text file or database, viewable only by you.

How would you like to proceed?Well, I am using mbhosting at the moment and I think it is php enabled. So Would you care to give a small explanation?There are some URL tracking service through PHP. You need to study a PHP
tutorial and possibly, MYSQL also).

You really don't need to study ANYTHING deep. Just a introductory knowledge
and in those tracking service you will get instructions on how to implement.You can create a simple page view counter like this:

Code: [Select]<?php

// Change this to something suitable - one file per web page!
$filename = '/path/to/trackingfile';

// If file doesn't exist, create it and set contents to zero
if (!file_exists($filename)) {
  $handle = fopen($filename", 'w');
  fwrite($handle, '0');
  fclose($handle);
}

$counter=file_get_contents($filename);
$counter++;
file_put_contents($filename, $counter);

?>This works for PHP 5+ but would need re-writing for earlier versions.  Put it at the top of the page that you want to track.  Make sure it's a .php page rather than .html.

I need to disable right-clicking on my site.

I found this code and it works on everything but where I want it to.

Any SUGGESTIONS?

//starting of JAVA script

var ERR = "Right Click is disabled "; //A simple variable for holding Error Message

function disableRightClick(btnClick) //Function that will execute on right click
{
if (navigator.appName == "Netscape" && btnClick.which == 3) // Netscape
{
 alert(Err);//Alert for display a message
 return FALSE;
}
else if (navigator.appName =="MICROSOFT Internet Explorer" && event.button == 2)  // IE
{
 alert(Err);
 return false;
}
}
document.onmousedown = disableRightClick; // Disable the right click

I want to disable right-click on macromedia.you cannot disable the flash pic....unless you no the a code/script setup!...have alook at the bottom of it......it displays the makers name..... :)when i meant disable it i meant......remove it and replace it with one of your gifs/jpeg/...its looks more professional website.......that way..

Looking for Search Engine Optimization.....

Do you do it yourself or hire someone?
If you hire someone, can you recommend them?

Do you have any tips/tricks/warnings that you would like to share? (regarding SEO)Here's some INFO straight from Google: What's an SEO? Does Google recommend working with companies that offer to make my site Google-friendly? .  And, of course, there are many hits from a search on SEO: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=SEO&btnG=Google+Search[size=14]Search Engine industry is continually changing. You need to know which of major SEs is powering which of the smaller search engines and then you can know where you can focus your optimizationefforts.

For example, Google has control over some free and paid listings of AOL, netscape, hotbot, Ask Jeeves, Teoma and Lycos.

Yahoo also control other Smaller SEs.

The point is that by inserting yor site into a bigger SE, you can also automatically include it into smaller SEs (in their free or paid versions)

Here are 5 don'ts that you should not include in your SEO process.

1) Irrelevant links:
Don't link with sites that does not match the theme of that of your site. If you are a web hosting site try to link at least with a site that deals with autoresponder, if you feel that linking with a web hosting site will INCREASE your competition.

2) Don't keyword stuff your meta tags:
SEs will punish you if you do that. Input not more than 3 keywords there.

3) Irrlevant keywords:
They can penalize you if you use irrelevant keywords in your title, meta tags, and URL.

4) Don't use doorway pages containing only keywords:            
If you use many doorway pages containing only many keywords and not containing good content you are likely to be banned.

5) Avoid the FFA pages:
Don't post there. Such sites have extremely low RATINGS and you will lose your ranking points.



Here is tips on improving your search engine ranking:

1) Use RSS feeds:

Create RSS feed for your pages and then post them to RSS feed directories.

2) Also you can download the Google Toolbar and
then find the pagerank of various classified sites. Choose those sites with  a pagerank  of at least 4, then post an AD related to your site there. This will boost your site's ranking.

Alright here it goes.  I have a trial for Server 2003 installed on a system I'm going to use as a server. On this server, I have enabled the web services and copied my website files to the wwwroot directory. Alas, I am unable to access the site from another computer.  At the moment, the server is not connected to the internet because I have dial up but am getting boadband LATER this week. My computers are connected VIA a linksys router switch and I have enabled port forwarding to send all HTTP requests to the 'server', which has a static address.  I can access files on my server from this computer, I use Remote Desktop to access the sever.  

Any IDEAS as to why I am unable to get the the web page when going to the servers IP address (with and without the port number after the IP address)?I'm afraid that some routers simply won't let you do this.  Switch port forwarding off on the router to test this.  Then in the browser on your computer, enter in the address: 'http://192.168.1.79' - or whatever the IP address is for your server on the LAN.  You may find that you can now see the web server.

Report back?Sorry for the delay in my response, things keeping me busy.

ANYWAY, I went in and tried it without the port forwarding and it worked, then I turned it back on and it still worked. I don't know why. *shrugs*  

In the end though, I decided to us WAMP instead of IIS, for me it's easier to configure.  Thanks for the response though, I wanted to be able to do it in IIS incase I need to later on. Quote

LOL.  Well, the IRS (Internal Revenue Service) is the name of the federal taxing authority in the U.S.A.  Obviously, other countries will have their own names for their governmental agencies.

Now, back to your I.T. problem: what exactly do you want PHP code to do for your website?

Bottom line: where/who is the money going to be coming from?

This is not something that INTERESTS me but when I stumbled across it I thought of you guys.
http://www.gdezigns.com/WebTools.cfmLooks like a GOOD RESOURCE from the few pages I checked out. Thanks for thinking about us and SHARING the link.

I have recently created a new website. I would LIKE to create a TEXT area with a scrollbar (like the one i am currently typing in), but my website host will not allow it. Each text area TAG that I attempt to insert into the HTML code box brings up an  error SAYING : "Error: the HTML may not contain a "textarea" tag. "
I know that there has to be a way around this, because sites that also use the free website host "Piczo" have text boxes on their sites. Is there another code that I may use that does not contain a "text area" tag?  
PLEASE refer to my Private Message for information...

I can't get the MySQL5 service to activate, no matter what I do! How can I get around this?Lets find out what is preventing it from starting.  Check the Application log, and also the log files within the MySQL installation directory.What the...

I also POSTED this QUESTION on the mySQL forums. After getting brushed off with a "common solution" that unsurprisingly did not work (I didn't have a MySQL service at the time... how was I supposed to remove it with a third-party program if it didn't exist?). Browsing back, one guy got a solution by uninatalling and installing it to a 8.3-compliant directory. This I tried, but it didn't work.

This morning after reading your post, I attempted to install (I had to uninstall again) MySQL. It locked up, however, trying to connect to MySQL.com. I couldn't get it to shut down, so I hit Reset. After it rebooted, I RAN setup again, CHOOSING "repair" since it was already somewhat installed. After that, I ran the config wizard and to my surprise, it went without a hitch. I'm in the command-line client now, but I'm still baffled how that managed to work. Don't.  Even.  Breathe.

Yes.  Already told you.

You NEED a hand GETTING started?  Start with the database design; think what you'll need to record.  E.g.:

Date/time of posting
Email address of poster (will not necessarily be displayed)
NAME of poster
Text of message (consider whether you'll want to provide a UBB code feature, or just plain text - allowing HTML is not a good plan unless you can write a REALLY good parsing sanity checker)
An approved/not approved field, if you want to moderate all messages
IP address of poster (although it may be spoofed if you do not guard against that) Quote

I am learning how to build a Web page using HTML. Although I can use a Web tool that ALLOWS me to set the properties to center, I do not know how to do this in HTML. I designed my screen for 800X600 which looks fine, but when viewed with a higher resolution the page the contents are on the left. Note: although I can use  “Site Builder” to correct this problem, I want to do it in a Text file in HTML code.You could wrap anything you want centred in a single DIV:<div align='center'>
 Blah blah
 </div>
Or you could use CSS: <###style>
body
{
   margin-left: auto;
   margin-right: auto;
}
<###/style>
(Remove the '###'.)  Not sure all browsers will correctly handle that CSS though.Thanks, Rob the   Blah blah   worked and was simple.Great.  JOB done.

I'm trying to transfer the database of my phpbb from my old web host to my new one. I made a backup of all the files and a backup of the database in a .sql file.

Problem is... I don't know how to get it from one place to the other. I tried a few tutorials but became lost. Anyone know how to explain this in the most dumbed-down way possible for a newbie?The question you need to ask is what mechanisms do your old and new hosts provide for importing/exporting MySQL databases?  If they both provide phpMyAdmin, then it's pretty easy to do a full export and a full import.  Is this offered?  Do they allow you a shell account access (in which case you'd be able to use the command line MySQL tools)?Both have phpMyAdmin. I'm not sure about shell account access.
I've DONE a export from the old host, but I don't know how to import it to the new one.Okay, having phpMyAdmin available MAKES things a lot simpler.  When you export a database to a file, what you actually do is create a list of SQL commands to reconstruct the database.  So in order to "import" the database, you actually have to "run" it.

Note that phpMyAdmin does not seem to recreate the database - just the tables.  So create all the relevant databases (probably just one if you've got all your phpBB tables in one place); then you're ready to run the SQL.

To do that, log into phpMyAdmin on your new host.  Create the database (if you've not already done so) and select it.  Then bring up a query window - in the current VERSION of phpMyAdmin, that involves clicking on the correct icon in the LEFT hand panel.  On my version, it is a little window with SQL written in it.

This will bring up a popup window.  Choose Import Files.  Browse for your .sql file and click go.  You're done.How do I know if it's importing? After I hit Go it just sits there  :-?There isn't a progress bar, I'm afraid.  You just need to wait.  A large database will take quite a while to import.  You can try flipping to the main phpMyAdmin screen, and looking for the new tables.  If the import is working, you should see them.It seems my server times out and logs me out before it's able to transfer (if it's even TRANSFERRING at all). Is there a way I could break it down to smaller files and import part at a time?Absolutely.  Could be a little tedious, but it can be done.  I guess the tables that you're transferring must be fairly large.

On the export page you'll see an option "DUMP [      ] row(s) starting at record # [      ]".  I don't know how large the tables are, but you can use that to split them up into smaller sections.

Does ANYONE know of any good free password gates for WEB  site were people have to register and login to view certain pages on your site?I SURE do! SIMPLY register at: http://www.bfndevelopment.com ...

Hi guys.

I have just bought a domain from a company, but all I am looking to do with it, is to host one really simple webpage.
The cheapest the company (where I bought the domain) could offer me was there basic starter hosting package which is £34 (approx $50) for the year. I know this isn't much, but because I only need a very small amount of space, I wondered if there was an even easier and cheaper way to get around this.

Many thanks for any replies posted.
Kop442000The cheapest way, if you're already on broadband, is to host the web page on your own computer.  Does that idea interest you?You can do that? How?Simply run a web server. Of course, it means that your machine must be running 24/7 and a good portion of your bandwidth may be consumed.There's just a little bit more to it than that, and I'm not sure the word "simply" is entirely appropriate in this context.  

If you don't have a static IP address, you'll need access to a dynamic DNS service such as that provided by dyndns.org.  Even if you have a static IP address, the DynDNS services allow you to convert that into something more memorable than numbers.  E.g. I use pcproblemsolver.dyndns.biz.

If you run a web server within your home (or business) network and set up your router/firewall to allow traffic to reach it, the outside world can access your personal web site by that means.  Doing things on a low budget, I would recommend running Apache rather than Microsoft's very poor Personal Web Server.  Apache is free for download, and is very fast and well suited to almost all web purposes.

Yes, you will probably need to keep your web server and ADSL connection on permanently, but I think that still works out cheaper than most hosting options.  And you can upgrade your web service for free - e.g. by adding PHP and MySQL, something that ISPs often charge extra for.

As for bandwidth, remember we're talking about upstream bandwidth here, i.e. from your computer outwards.  Your broadband will typically be 1Mbps downstream (towards you) but much less than this upstream - 128Kbps or less is common.  So you wouldn't be able to run an extremely popular web site over broadband.  There just isn't enough bandwidth.  It's plenty for most home uses however.  People accessing your website from outsite will not noticeably slow down your own online experience, since you will usually have much more downstream bandwidth to spare.PS  I may have my upstream and downstream muddled up there, but the gist is correct!!!   Thanks for the posts guys.

Will have a think about all that.

Cheers.So, basically, if I run my own server people can only access it when I'm on my computer? Interesting... Um, I created an account and a host. How do I actually get the web site up there into the right place? Do I do that on the web site, or what?

[edit]Oh wait, I found that in HTML-Kit I can import a site from a URL, so I can work on it from there. I think. It's asking for Username and Password, and I put in my dynDNS username and password, but it won't accept it! Also, when I try to go to the service I created, it asks for username and password. I put them in, but it doesn't accept them! What am I doing wrong?[/edit]First of all, is it actually a website that you want to run or is it perhaps an FTP server for sharing files?

I run a private FTP server using Serv-U and No-IP. My address is ftp://myservername.no-ip.comJust an HTTP site. No downloads.

[edit]I should probably mention that I am working on parts of the site. It isn't yet complete, because I have some routine work to do on it. I would like to know how to do it so that when I'm done making sure that that table I made renders properly in all browsers I can, or making sure those hyperlinks work like they're supposed to, then I am able to put that site on there. [/edit]Dilbert, what web server are you using on your computer?  And what DynDNS client are you using?  (See the support section at DynDNS.)  How do you connect to the internet?  If you're using a router, have you ensured that external port 80 requests are forwarded to your PC?

Re the links - always use relative links, rather than absolute.  It makes testing so much easier.  That said, I often work on live sites (naughty) changing the files on the web server, rather than elsewhere+uploading and just test the changes as I go along.

Make sure you have the three big three browsers at least (Opera + Firefox + IE) for testing purposes.  In the case of IE, it is better for security to run one of the "wrapper" browsers like Maxthon or Slimbrowser, which are based on IE. Quote

This is going to sound dumb, but I don't know. How can I figure it out?

I'm looking all over the support section, and can't find info on it. Thinking it would help, I installed the Official Windows Update Client. What on Earth do I have to do?

At last, a question I can answer! I use a wireless connection to my mother's router, which is hooked up to her computer.

Um... no... how do I do that?

(I thought I knew about this stuff. I kinda feel like a moron for not getting this.)

No problem.  You're either not running one, or you're running Microsoft's Personal Web Server (a Windows component).  In the latter case, uninstall it.  In either case, get Apache and follow the installation instructions carefully.  I'm afraid there's a bit of a learning curve, but I'm sure that won't put you off.  

That's what you need.  It tells the DynDNS servers what your current IP address is (in fact the address of your router).

Which router?

Varies from router to router.  Grab the manual and look for "port forwarding".  Assign a static local IP address to your computer (don't use DHCP) and then forward the incoming port 80 requests to your PC's LAN IP address.

Don't be silly - if you've never done it before, why would you know?  Playing and trying things is the best way of learning.  

OK, I'm a little stuck right at the beginning. I can see my IP address, and it's different from the one the DynDNS Updater has showing.

in my wireless connection settings, my IP is 192.168.1.**2. I can't find where to make it assign the address/netmask.DNS server manually on my Windows XP. My Local Area Connection is disabled because I have the wireless thing set up.

Attempting connection to your computer. . .
Shields UP! is now attempting to contact the Hidden Internet Server within your PC. It is likely that no one has told you that your own personal computer may now be functioning as an Internet Server with neither your knowledge nor your permission. And that it may be serving up all or many of your personal files for reading, writing, modification and even deletion by anyone, anywhere, on the Internet!      
      

Your Internet port 139 does not appear to exist!
One or more ports on this system are operating in FULL STEALTH MODE! Standard Internet behavior requires port connection attempts to be answered with a success or refusal response. Therefore, only an attempt to connect to a nonexistent computer results in no response of either kind. But YOUR computer has DELIBERATELY CHOSEN NOT TO RESPOND (that's very cool!) which represents advanced computer and port stealthing capabilities. A machine configured in this fashion is well hardened to Internet NetBIOS attack and INTRUSION.      
      

Unable to connect with NetBIOS to your computer.
All attempts to get any information from your computer have FAILED. (This is very uncommon for a Windows networking-based PC.) Relative to vulnerabilities from Windows networking, this computer appears to be VERY SECURE since it is NOT exposing ANY of its internal NetBIOS networking protocol over the Internet.

• You ask your browser to bring up a web page - this is an internet request on port 80
• Your computer talks to the router, and requests the web page
• You router makes a "mental note" of which PC on the LAN asked for the web page.  It then asks on the internet for the web page.
• The web server responds, on port 80, to your router.
• Your router forwards the response to your PC, since it knows your PC requested the response.

• Your PC asks the router for a web page, on port 80
• That web page responds on port 80, but it also starts scanning other ports
• The unsolicited ports scans are dealt with by the router, and go no further, since no computer on the LAN requested them

Rob, I'm afraid that I have to completely disagree with your "thesis" regarding software firewalls! In todays climate, a properly instituted and maintained software firewall is not only desirable, it's essential!

This might SEEM like a stupid question but is there a way
I can disconnect from the internet at will? The reason being
i've ALWAYS had dial-up, and we are getting Dsl in our area
next week and I've signed up thru TALK America DSL. In
Dial-up if you wanted to be off the WEB you just logged off,
would this be the same for dsl? :-/

I hope I'am in the right forum and Thanks ahead
for any advice  

DonDepends on your type of DSL connection.  If you have a USB DSL modem that plugs into your PC. the chances are that you'll have on/off software control.  But the point of DSL is that it's "always on".  The important thing is that you ensure you are running adequate security software and a correctly-configured firewall.  Then it doesn't matter if the connection is live 24/7.

Of course if you're determined to take the connection down, you can always UNPLUG the DSL router/modem/whatever you have.

Hi there
I am in the process of re-designing my website, and could do with some technical help.
I have a page with 2 tables on it, one of which contains a menu of some 30 items. I want to make those items LINKS that CALL up related documents and display them in the other table.
I did something similar a long time ago, and just can't remember how!!!!!
I KNOW I need to create a separate document for each link, but can't remember the file extension to save, or how to create the link to display it where I want.
Any help appreciated please.

Thanks in advance

PaulThat sounds like javascript, but I'm not to good with that YET so I recommend using a frame-set if you choose to go in that DIRECTION tell me and I'll help you further.

Hi,
     i have deesigned a small mobile phone compatible game with J2ME and i want to insert the .jad and  .jar files into an XHTML web page ,so that any one can download the game in their phone and play it. But i donot know how to insert the files as downloadables. Can anyone help me with thisI don't know specifically how this is done (downloading programs to mobile phones) but why not find another site that does this, and examine their code?Thanks Rob . I figured it out . Just have to give the link to the files directly. And when you try tht link it prompts whether to open or save the file.
      Now i am struck up with accessing a data base (.DB file) to read the table and display it in my XHTML web page . i tried GOOGLING but could not find anything .
Precisely , i want to include the High score for the game  which i wrote it into a .DB file and now i have to access the file and display the table in the web page.
 Could you please give me some ideda how to work this out. If any one could put down the sample script on how to do this would be appreciatedYou would NORMALLY need a scripting language (such as PHP, PERL or PYTHON) to access a database from a web page.  Are you FAMILIAR with any of those?  What did you use, to create the database?Hi Rob ,
       thanx for ur concern . i used J2ME  tool kit which created a record in DB and wrote the SCORES everytime i ran the game , but i could not open the data base at all . When i googled i found it could be opened with MSAcess , but it didnt . I honestly do not know how J2ME writes the database. I stopped processing tht currently writing midlets to output the score in a text file .
          

thanks againDoes your website host provide you with any server-side scripting?  That would give you some fairly sophisticated capabilities, even with a flat text file.

If you can program in Java, picking up PHP would be a breeze.

Hi,
 
I am trying to place some pics into a webpage but the pics
all stack on top of each other with no space between them.
I tried  
 

and a horizontal line to seperate but nothing
works. The tags are ignored.   http://www.nitropro.com/reviews.htm

example:

        

what are IRC chat ROOMS?http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IRCAS you read that LINK from Robpomeroy one thing that is not mention there is:
IRC are able to hack using DOS code  

For this template on my website:

IE and Firefox display nicely buy Opera STICKS a gap between the header - company GRAPHIC - and the top of the Div, anybody know why it does this or how to fix it??

Thanks

P.S. I use Dreamweaver.Here's another headache for you, using IE and my resolution SET on 1024x768 the page is too wide for my screen.Ahh I SEE,

Is your IE View-->Text Size--> set to Largest?

I'm going to try to tailor it now...

YakovAgain this is a reason why I still use tables for layout.  You get much more consistent cross-browser results.  Sorry.

Have you tried tweaking the CSS margin and padding for default img and p tags?  Could be that Opera has different defaults.

Install a web server!

APACHE is free, and there is an Apache::ASP MODULE you can install.check out these free live ASP servers you can HOST your pages for free.

ps Ihave no connection to this pages or SITES I just googled for it so don't blame me if they are rubbish

Hi there. Does SOMEBODY knows, how I go to another SITE, by pressing an arrow of the keyboard. I would like to have that if I press the arrow that points to the left -on your keyboard!- (I can't say it correct in English, so forgive me) that it goes to another page (example: page.html). Actually it is a sort of unvisible link, but you can use it, if you press that key. Does anybody knows how to do this?

blackberry  Usually Alt+Left goes back through your BROWSER history and Alt+Right goes forward.  Left scrolls left in a wide page, and right scrolls right.  I do not think you can easily override these settings in your browser, unless you use something like AutoHotKey which is free and enables you to reprogram your entire keyboard in a very sophisticated way.

Hi,
I'm not even sure if this is possible in html, but i'll ask anyway..

I have an image I'd like to use as my background image on my web page. Can I set it up so that the image resizes according to viewers' monitor resolutions and that its proportions stay the same?

F.ex. I have an image 1600*1200 and I want it to FILL as big area on the page as possible so that it is FULLY visible. Three persons with different monitor sizes (1024*768, 1280*768 and 800*600) view the page and each one of them can see the whole image WITHOUT scrolling.

Can this be done? So there can be seen f.ex. white color on the SIDES of the image, if its proportions aren't the same as the screen size.

Any help/comment (=not possible! etc) appreciated!
Regards,
--patriktry using size=100%.  usually will work to keep image completely on screen, independent of user's monitor res.
the guy above you is right. I use that to it works.

If anyone can help me it would be great. I am creating a web page in frontpage 2003 and am having some issues with graphic alignment. I have created several images in PHOTOSHOP, sliced them and saved them optimized in Image ready as HTML files, the pictures are INSERTED fine, then I use the position absolutely so I can move them around. I get them placed where I want them, then when I preview in BROWSER the page comes up and the picture is up and to the left of where I placed it sometimes it's just barely off sometimes several hundred pixels. the strange this is that the imae I am using for my header is not affected it stays exactly where I put it. I have one table set up with the dimensions of 800x1000 to keep everthing in the center of the page. I have tried several different things so FAR, such as changing alignment of the layer my images use. It seeems though that nom matter what I do it screws up. any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Quote

I'm guessing this would be a javascript, but can someone write a script for me so that when you enter

the site a box pops up that tells you to type your name and then somewhere on the site it shows the

name. I'm not very skilled at creating javascripts, but I can understand them. I'm guessing you would

have to create a VARIABLE the has the value of whatever the person typed in and then you would show

that variable in the DOCUMENT but I do not know how to actually write the script!

I have designed a web site using publisher 2000 and saved it as a web page.  Now I want to publish it to the net using my free web site from my s.p.  I am so confused though and don't know what to do next.  Also when(if) I ever get it on the net, do I need to submit it to search engines?  Can anyone help me?  I don't like being quite so harsh, but you're better off ditching Publisher and using a tool that's actually made for web design.  Using Publisher is likely to cause all sorts of problems -cross-browser incompatibility being a biggie.

Try NVu (which is free), or DreamWeaver, if you have access to it.  Avoid FrontPage at all costs.

The BEST way (IMO) of getting your web pages onto your free web space is using FTP, if your ISP provides FTP access.  FTP Surfer is ONE of the best free FTP programs for MS Windows that I've used.

If you want people to be able to find your web site, yes you will need to submit it to search engines.  For most search engines, that process is free, no matter what web promotion companies try to tell you.index.php works too. Core FTP is what i use, but if your ISP does not allow, you must use their Upload tools. When doing this, you must make SURE that all the files are in the same place as they are on your computer. Dreamweaver is great, but if your just begining i would give Adobe GoLive a go. Who is your host? Freewebs? Geocities? Bravehost? Quote

???hello, could anybody help me? every time I try to book something or order something online a page comes up at the LAST minute and says page unavailable? it also says check NETWORK detections but when I click on that nothing happens, this has only just the past two months started to happen, before that it was always ok. it says that there may be a problem with the site and to try later, but its been happening for two months and its on every site I go on, so that can't be it, or it says that I should check my BROWSER settings? but I am not sure what that means? or how to do that even? I dont know much about computers, does anybody know what this could mean? or how to fix this problem?
any help would be great.
thanx
Lucyhi if anyone does know what is WRONG with my computer and why page unavaliable keeps coming up, could you please email me if its not a bother, I want to leave the site now, and knowing me I probably wont be able to find it again.
thanks again.hi the message just came up again and it says 'page cannot be displayed' . not page unavailable, but I guess they mean the same thing anyway.Hi LUCY... Have you scanned for viruses and Spyware? What web browser are you using?

I uploaded a half hour of music on my web site adventurefilmproductionscanada.com
I EXPECTED that a visitor would just click on the AFP radio program line and the music would start. But what HAPPENS is the music starts to download. This music file is huge and nobody will spend a couple of hours downloading. What can I do to just make the music start when a visitor clicks on it. The code that I used in my index is click here to listen to AFP's radio program[/url]
 I have a Dell Dimension,
OS  Windows 98

Thanks a lotThere are two options:

1. An embedded player (e.g. Window Media Player).
2. A streamed feed (e.g. Shoutcast).

Both have their pros and cons.Thanks for your answer.  What is the code for embedding the media player?  And, if you had the choose, would you choose this action or streaming?

Once again thanksYou can't upload 30 minutes of music to a website unless you stream it.

Do you have any idea how MUCH bandwith you'd waste on 30 minutes of music? A shitload. Either look into streaming music or play MIDI files... I suggest you do neither, though. Music on websites is annoying.Thanks Raptor,

One of the things our company does is provide clasical music shows.  I uploaded the half hour program using dial up. It took 20 hours.  Are you saying that I should have uploaded it by streaming it?  I just want the OPTION for visitors to either click on the show to listen to it or ignore it.  I don't want it to download. I don't want it to start automatically.  Is there a code I can use to allow visitors to listen immediatly when they click on it.

Thanks muchStreaming just MEANS that people do not have to download everything at once, but rather in small segments so they can listen to it on the website. Howeve,r it requires expertise that I do not have so I can't tell you.

IF you're going to be uploading a lot of files, get broadband. 20 hours of dial-up ticks.....   Ask your web host whether they offer streaming services.  If you're very lucky, they won't charge you extra.

USE GOOGLE BEFORE ASKING THESE KIND OF QUESTIONS!!!

i am making a webpage for a schoool i used to attend i cannot seem to put in a file called s1.ppt  it is a POWERPOINT presentation, i have tried using dreamweaver and notepad but they cannot help, i tried using embed src but they dont work, is there a bttr way of doing this? :-? :-? :-?Open the Powerpoint presentation, and click on File -> Save for WEB  ... It will create a series of files, all of which you need to upload to your server. Once they are all UPLOADED, all you must do is type in the file URL. That should work. Let me know what happens  

FlameJust thought I'd put in my 2 cents:

I have Office 2003 and I only have the option to "save as web page" and it saves as a .mht. One file. It has very POOR browser support.thnx asking on this was much easier than emailing the website, like their instructions told me too. I sent them an email last week and they STILL havent respondedwell i just tried and it saves as a single file webpage, i tried inserting it but it just showed up as a like a blank page, with a scroll bar, this is reely staring to get on my nerves, is their a easy way using dreamweaver? i have dreamweaver MX, i dont know if this affects it. The powerpoint thing saved a an .mht file, yet still refuses to want to be in my page!!!!!!!Take a look at my last post. ya, but is there anyway i can put this file in? what about object tags, would they maybe help me here??/me has looked across the reaches of Google to find answers. He has found none.

I can't find anything on it. I hope someone knows, because it's one of those things that seem like they should be possible. I'll keep trying at it.Do not use PowerPoint for web design!

Your best way out of this mess is to offer the presentation as a download link to your users.  If you want your website to look like your presentation, then start with a real HTML editor (Notepad will do!) and re-do it.If I might MAKE a suggestion... HTML-Kit and Notepad++ are what I use.

Is there anyway that I can make a "pop over" that bypasses a persons POPUP blocker and just pops up on the screen as a regular screen. Kinda like a button that makes the person DEFAULT pick "open in new window"?

this would be extremly helpful if someone knew a code for this cause i'm stumpedSeriously I hope NO ONE HELPS you devise any thing close to a popup. Those are annoying as are the people that perpetuate them.aw... meanie

popups aren't that badTake a POLL. That opinion is ONLY held by the perpetrators, not the victims.

Hi, another question from a newer than newbie. I am getting into online TEACHING and the place I work for wants me to use "graphics" in my webinto page and also in my lessons.
 Now, I went and looked for some "free" clip arts and animations.  ACCORDING to the isntructions on the page, I right clicked, and then chose, save as, and saved them in my PICTURES.  When I view them there, the animations
move, but when I put them into the Word DOCUMENT, webpage view, they dont' move.  Will theymove when I send the word page in to be put on the net?  or what?
Also, any ideas where I can find smaller clips or little AVATARS or things? I need something that is not too childish or "peppy." Even the ed sites have large images, or have images which are good for elementary teaching but not for college teaching thanks

I'm using 1st Page 2000 to create a simple web page.
How do I create a link to a pdf file which will offer a download to the user. So far I've got LINKS which AUTOMATICALLY opens the Acrobat Reader.Because a browser on a computer with ADOBE Acrobat Reader knows how to open and view a PDF file it will always attempt to display or open the PDF file when the link is clicked.

If you wanted to make it a downloadable file I would SUGGEST you change the extension of the file by compressing the PDF file as a .ZIP file so the user could download and extract the file.

Or a better solution would be to add a comment such as "Right-click the link and choose save as to save the .PDF file." All browsers support the feature to right-click a link and save the link or file to your computer.Thanks. I like the second suggestion and will use it.

I am FRUSTRATED by a co-workers joke.  We have FINALLY gotten a decent computer at my job.  It has the capability of high band connection thru firefox.  It was wonderful not to have to use the slow dial up on my laptop.  I was so excited that I would be able to just email my work files to the new computer instead of having to copy them to floppy from the old computer, then transfer them to cd on my laptop, then copy them to the new computer.  My co-worker seems to find great delight in only allowing himself internet access!  He has hidden the internet connection.  I can't find it anywhere.  If anyone has any ideas how I can circumvent his little joke, I would LOVE to hear about them!  The computer is networked to an off site system.  Any ideas, anyone?
maihynsAnd is your "co-worker" the administrative account on this computer? Does this person even HAVE an account? Have you tried system restore?

[glb]Flame[/glb]My co-worker has admin settings because he set up the system. The guy from the company screwed it up, and he fixed it so we could use it.  The little BRAT keeps insisting that he can't get on line either but I CHECK the history and I see sites listed.  The system shows three connections.
1.     1394 connection 2
2.     CTC
3.     and one that I recognize as being only for our outgoing    program.

This is so frustrating.  I believe that it is the FIRST connection listed above that he is using, but I can't seem to access it.  I tried setting up a reg dial up connection, but it still doesn't bypass Norton's admin settings. Grrrrrr
maihyns
So you do, or do not have your connection now? Also, if you are not the administrator, you do not have much power to change things around...
