According to some people, this is indeed going to limit the allocated memory for firefox but in turn, this will increase disk usage when firefox runs out of allocated memory - which makes perfect sense. I'm going to experiment with it and see how it behaves. Thanks for the info, curtis!!

I know cPanel lets you decompress tarballs (.tar.gz files) but I'm not sure if it supports TAR files, so perhaps you should do as Ayman suggested and use a tarball instead.

Another good place to look is DistroWatch.com.

thehemi, it has a known memory leak? I never heard of that I'm a bit surprised it has a known memory leak and no one fixes it... Could you point me to some place I can read more about it?

Bruce, I was going to suggest you'd download Cygwin and use the original Vim but since you already fixed the problem, no need to do that. But keep the idea under your belt, maybe it will come in handy some day when MS decides to dispatch another batch of updates like those

I completely agree with Don about the short vs. normal open tags. Use <?php instead of just <? Jim already said what's wrong with your script, so I'll just add two suggestions: - search google for "php tutorial", you'll find TONS of reading; - search amazon books for "PHP" (on the programming section), on the search results page select the "sort by average consumer rating" option and then start reading the reviews for the ones with good ratings (4 stars and above). Hope this helps

Daniel, try this: ><table class="center"><tr><td>Content</td></tr></table> .center { width: 700px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; } No need to use <div> And of course, you can change the 700px to whatever you want the table's width to be

Nice! Thanks, Bill!

No problem. Glad you sorted it out

Yep, just saw that on Slashdot. Coolest thing in the world: this one affects every browser out there except..... get this.... <drum rolls>.... Internet Explorer!! It's about time, I'd say Moving for organization.

I just tried posting a comment on your first entry and I had no problems. Perhaps you have corrected this?

Welcome to the family, Marquardt As for the iframes, they're both loading just fine on my browser. Could it be that you have some ad blocker installed and the size of the iframe is triggering it?

Fool, follow Lisa and mcm2's suggestions. I'm not the best person to give advice on how to upgrade MT, since I don't use it.

That's probably because you're setting an incorrect username or database name. If you're not using your cpanel username to access the database (in which case the username remains unchanged), the username should be in the form of yourcpanelusername_dbusername Similarly, the database name should be in the form of yourcpanelusername_databasename Note that the database name should be in the form above, regardless of whether you're using your cpanel username to access the database or not. Let me know if this helps

You can submit a help-desk ticket asking that the techs delete the file for you

That's why I explained how to navigate into the folders, because it seemed to me that you were looking in the wrong place but didn't know how to get out of there. Follow marie's instructions, that's exactly what you have to do to get to the emoticons folder and change its permissions

Hello, fool. And welcome to the family! As for the MT upgrade, I don't use MT so I can't be much of a help but I was also going to suggest that you try to do a clean install and import your old entries then. As Funkalicious said, many times this is much less of a headache than to upgrade your current version - not only with MT but with many other software packages. I'm also moving this into a more appropriate forum, for better exposure and organization.

Click on the folder icons to navigate into folders. If you click the folder/file names you'll be presented with some options on the top-right pane, among which you will see the option for changing file permissions. Hope that helps.

Here's a heads-up for those of you who use the operating system that "is everywhere, works with little intervention, works with the majority of computers, the majority of peripherials, and the majority of software programs" From Slashdot: PS - don't take this as a "windows sucks" kind of post. I only post these warnings about windows security patches and security flaws because I know most people don't take security seriously enough and so I do this so they know they should update their windows instalations.

Cant use that excuse, Bill owns the copyright to it. LOL Note that this isn't about a Windows vs. Linux war, this is about a very simple question: if a product used by millions of people simply doesn't work right, never did and only gets worst, why don't those millions of people protest against the product maker? This happens everywhere else (well, almost everywhere else) except when it comes to Windows. I completely agree with Jim but I don't think that's the only reason. Or at least not alone. I think that nowadays, most people who use a computer are people who don't like computers, don't want to know how they work, think they're a seven-head monster or Medusa and if you look at them for more than 5 minutes you'll be petrified. This leads us to having stupidly simple programs and instead of focusing on security and usability, their creators focus on simplicity and good-looks. My position about this is probably a bit extreme but I think that if someone wants to use a computer, they should know what they have in their hands. I'm not saying they should know how to program in assembly language but come on, people should at least know that they need to turn on the darn thing before using it... As to the question that popped into my mind, about "why do you still use windows?", I do know that since Windows dominated the home operating system market for so long, most games and some other very specific software is mostly available only on Windows but what about the rest of the computer users? Why is Windows used on most companies and governments? I believe this is (at least in part) the vendors' fault. PC vendors push Windows down the consumers' throat and don't even give them a chance to chose. For example, I can't buy a laptop computer here in Portugal without it having Windows pre-installed, even if I say to the vendor that the Windows license agreement allows me to decline it, in which case I can go back to the store and ask for a refund, since I'm not going to use Windows.

Rob, I know those motives The topic was actually supposed to be the name of the article, "Why Does Windows Still Suck?", not "Why do you still use Windows. I just wrote it wrong. Not my fault, blame my lack of sleep Still, although a very simple one, it is still one of the most insightful questions (not "why you still use windows" but the big question he asks) I've seen in a long time

One of the most insightful articles I've read in a long time, about Windows and its problems. Saw it on Slashdot (as usual ):

Right, Bruce. Sorry. The lack of sleep is catching up on me.

chroniker, a .tar.gz file is commonly refered to as a tarball. I believe Bruce was saying that if you uploaded the tarball to your account and uncompressed it there, you don't need to worry about whether or not it was transferred in ASCII. But if you decompressed the file on your computer and then uploaded the resulting files and directories to your account, then that could be the problem. It should have nothing to do with the nameserver.
