hang in there, I am sure a family member that uses Oscommerce will be along soon.

Welcome to the forum, Mr. Coot Hope you are all set with the e-mail form if not let us know and we will get you going.

I have had better luck with large file transfers with Core FTP lite than my other ftp program. It too has a keep alive option.

Yep, I like the spell checker better than Spellbound.

You are most welcome jack If you have any more questions, please ask.

The e-email I received said I did not see any mention of shutting down your site. The e-mail went to any one that installed phpBB through their cpanel. Since you have already upgraded, you don't have to worry

Welcome to the forum Jack You can add a photo album script to any package there are some helpful install instructions on the totalchoicehosting help site for the more popular ones. Or you can search for album scripts on hotscripts.com or google and install them, and if you run into problems installing, just post in the the scripts forum for help.

Question

JD, TCH cannot unlock a domain if it is registered elsewhere. your client will need to log in at the domain register and unlock it. If the register and the host are the same, they will need to contact them.

Barb, If you goto RegisterFly.com accounts and log in with the user and password you received when you bought the domain you should see a place to unlock the domain so a transfer can take place.

Barb, what is the domain name?

who did you buy your domain name from?

Welcome to the forum Barb Can you log in to where ever you bought your domain name and turn off the register lock? When you bought the domain, you should have received instructions on how to manage your domain.

Hi Anna, Broadband connections genneraly have faster download speeds than the upload for example, my cable offers 768k/3meg download, but the upload is 256k for all. For me I have found the filemanager is the fastest way to upload to my site espessally if you use a zip file.

welcome to the forum Fred If you ever installed phpbb in cpanel just to try, then cpanel remembers that. As long as you are sure you have no phpbb installed you can ignore the message. I looked at my files and discovered an install I had made myself and forgot, so I upgraded it. Remember any one upgrading log into your admin > config and change the default styles back to sub-silver first, then upgrade following the instructions in the upgrade files at thephpbb site.

If you want to pay with php on your computer and do not have a web server Xampp lite is quick and easy to use PsPad editor will preview php pages on your local server. A great combo.

This is my quick check list for database's Be sure that in MySql you 1 - created the database 2 - created a user 3 -added the user to the database (go back to MySql and find the Add user select the user and database, and then Add user to database) Then to connect to the database in a script use: host: localhost database: yourCpanelName_databaseName user: yourCpanelName_databaseUser password: mypassword * Note password is just as the password, do not add the CpanelName to it.

Over all I think Howard Sams teach your self php in 24 hours is a good starter book and it is still a good reference book after you get comfortable with php.
