Glad it's back to normal, Bill And thanks for the update

Thanks for the heads up, Thomas

Hi Fredatuk, and welcome to the forums! As for your questions, let's see: 1) I am interested on starting up with a basic package and upgrading as necassary - is that possible ? Absolutely. That's probably the best way to get started 2) How much do .com domains cost ? Domains cost $10.95 per year. 3) How many sub-domains are allowed ? And what is the format ? eg something.**** ? You can create as many subdomains as you like, TCH does not impose any limit. And yes, the subdomains are in the for of subdomain.****** 4) Are the domains fully registered in my name as owner ie whois will show me I can change the contact info myself. ? Yes, the domains will be fully registered in your name. 5) My PHP programs create temporary sql databases like this : [...] Do my user permissions allow my to do this on the server ? You can't create or drop databases with your regular user but you can do all that with phpMyAdmin, which is pre-installed in every account. 6) Another PHP program sends me email when certain things happen using the $mailsend command e.g. $mailsend=mail("habbardo@yahoo.com","$subj","$emess","$ehead"); Do your servers send email in this way ? Yes, you can send e-mails using PHP's mail() function. 7) Can I send SMS messages to mobile phones ? Is there a charge for this ? Well, the short answer is that no, you can't send SMS messages to mobile phones, beacuse you'd need an SMS gateway for that. The longer answer is that if you have a way to use a third party gateway via a PERL/PHP/Python script or if you want to buy a dedicated server and install a gateway yourself, then yes, you can send SMS messages to mobile phones. E-commerce. 1) I want to receive payments using Paypal - any problem with this ? No problems at all. If I'm not mistaken, Paypal only needs you to put a link to their servers with certain codes so their servers know how much to pay and to whom. That's perfectly possible here. 2) What other options do you offer ? MIRVA ? what cost ? I haven't looked at Mirva in a long time but last time I did, it was only a shopping cart. Is that what you're referring to? If so, TCH offers you the possibility to automatically install osCommerce or Agora cart directly from your account control panel. If you're referring to credit card processing, then no, TCH does not offer that service. You can, however, search the forums about this subject, since it has been brought up before. 3) Some data is confidential and I want to use an SSL directory. What is the cost of setting this up with a certificate ? Which certificate do you use ? Does the padlock sign appear on a users browser ? What are the space and traffic limitation on using SSL directory ? You can use the shared SSL certificate, which is free for all accounts. If you want a dedicated certificate, it will cost you $35 for installation and $115 per year. The padlock sign always appears on a user browser when the user is visiting a site that uses SSL, unless, of course, the browser doesn't have a padlock sign to show (I believe all the "big" browsers have that feature, though). As for the traffic and space limitations, they are the same. You'll be using disk space and bandwidth from your account's quota. 4) is my ip address static ? Yes, the server's IP address is static. 5) Do you offer a shared SSL - to start up with ? As I mentioned above, yes, all accounts have free shared SSL PHP and Access 1) Can I use htaccess files to change the config when needed. Is PHP safemode enabled or disabled ? Yes, you can use .htaccess and PHP safe mode is disabled. 2) Do I get access to phpmyadmin ? Also mentioned above, yes, phpMyAdmin is installed in your control panel 3) Do I use FTP or SCP/SFTP upload files ? You can use FTP but due to security concerns, TCH has decided to stop offering SSHl access some time ago, so you won't be able to use SCP or SFTP to upload files. There. I hope this helps you

Well, I'm not sure how Drupal needs the script to be run but either way should work just fine. If you got errors when using the method I suggested, you probably got the same errors when using the shell script but those are redirected to /dev/null, so you won't see them. Anyway, glad you got it working

Trackbacks is a "standard", so it will work across any weblog software that implements it

Scott, you may also want to run a simpler cron command, such as >php -q /home/yourusername/public_html/cron.php That way you don't need an extra shell script. Moving for organization.

bandofsisters, welcome to the forums! I don't know the answer to your question but we have several IPB users on the forums, so someone will eventually know how to do it and will be able to help you

Andy, you might want to look at eGroupware Moving for organization.

Ulmi, welcome to the forums! You may want to have a look at this thread

owatagal and matman, note that short open tag (just <? instead of <?php ) may not work on some hosts (they may have it disabled), so if you intend to create a script for others to use, you may want to take that in consideration.

Congratulations, Robert!! :thumbup1:

Hi Bill, and welcome to the family! I'm glad to see you managed to get the script to work If you need anything, just ask!

Since you joined the forums today and have posted only three messages, I'll assume you haven't been reading the forums much. But take some time to do so and you will find the answer to your question. As Mike said, you will see that we are all like family. You'll find examples of TCH defending it's customers, customers defending TCH, customers defending customers, you name it. Anyway, welcome to the forums and if you need anything, just ask

Thanks, Scott!

There's no "formAcceptanceFull" element in your HTML, so JavaScript obviously can't access any properties of an element it doesn't know and doesn't even exist

Welcome to the team, David!

Welcome to the family, simon I'm sure you'll be happy with your decision to host your site with TCH If you need anything, just ask

Glad you got it working

JTey, only the 30KB would count, because the resized image is the only data being sent to the visitors' web browsers.

Welcome to the family, overload If you need anything, just ask And just as a FYI, you can use your cpanel username and password to access any database you create, regardless of having created a database user and it being assigned to the database or not. But I wouldn't recommend it, because if someone manages to break into your account and reads the configuration files where the username and password are stored, they will not only gain access to your database but they will also gain access to your whole account. Edit: well, if they'd break into your account they'd already have access to your account, so...

Welcome to the forums, Maura If you need anything, just ask

Welcome to the family, Bigg-Birdd! I'm sorry to hear that mailman doesn't fit your needs. Unfortunately, like Bruce, I don't know the answer to your question, since I don't use Dada-mail myself but we have some users on the forums, so perhaps they'll be able to help you. If you need anything else, just ask

Sorry Webbie, I don't even know what Fanfic is but perhaps someone else knows of something that will fit your needs EDIT: I just checked some links and I came to the conclusion that "fanfic" is something that I had imagined last summer by myself and I intended to build a site as a project, thinking it would be something new....

Welcome, Chud I'm not an MT user, so there's not much I can help you with but as Bruce and Don said, someone from our MT crowd will certainly be able to help you

Welcome to the family, Gemma
