Why don't you use relative paths instead?

Thanks for the link to the extension, I solved the problem by entering serverXX.totalchoicehosting.com as the mail server instead of mail.example.com.

I had a problem with backup timing and my site being slow, I opened a ticket and the help desk was very helpful in sorting it out, I was moved to the UK server where backup timing fits more with my local timing, the whole process was painless, I'm simply amazed by support here, it just rocks! Thanks everyone, and especially TCH-RobertM

Hrm, what's up with TCH? First it was the major announcement thing and now this. Hope it's good news anyway

Amazing, thanks for sharing!

For the second question: >RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteRule ^index\.html$ index.php RewriteRule ^index\.htm$ index.php

1) Not that I know of, I have been here for 10 months, maybe someone else who's been around more can confirm, I'm interested too. 2) I don't remember having any downtime during those 10 months, if any happened, it was for very short periods or something. 3) Yeah they know their stuff very well, and reply to tickets very fast, I usually get replies that solve the issue within minutes. 4) I guess I knew your current host, they don't have cPanel right? It would have been easier if they used cPanel, anyway it's still quite easy to trasfer the database and files, download/upload files in FTP, then import the db dump in phpMyAdmin or upload it and open a ticket for the techies to import it, if it's larger than what phpMyAdmn can handle.

You can either use the email auto-forwarding feature in cPanel (it's under mail), this will forward your emails to another server, however, I don't think this will help in case of downtime. Another option is hosting your email on another server, you can do so by changing MX entries for your domain(s) (also under mail in cPanel).

Well one way I can think of is using the "background" property in CSS, edit phpBB CSS file and add: >body { background: url(/map.png); } Check out this page: http://www.w3schools.com/css/pr_background.asp You may need to experiment with the other attributes of this property. I think this will do the trick, HTH.

The username will be in the global variable: $_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_USER'] More info here: http://www.php.net/features.http-auth EDIT: TCH-David was faster than me

The other day phpbb's sessions table got corrupted on my account too, have no idea why, I deleted and recreated it, and everything was back to normal, good thing the table's data isn't vital for phpbb.

There are many ways to do it, I use: >wget -q -O - http://example.com/file.php HTH

If you use a proxy, your IP will be in the x-forwarded-for header, check out the examples on this page: http://www.php.net/getenv To get an idea of how to find the correct IP address. HTH
