Hi Scholar Warrior. Check out Credit Card Processing, Links to check out, it contains some information I think you'll find useful

There's a cool example on Eric Meyer's website about pure CSS menus (yes, pure as in 'not a single drop of JavaScript" ): www.meyerweb.com/eric/css/edge/menus/demo.html You don't use Mozilla/Navigator/Firebird/Camino or other Gecko based browser? Well, tough luck, because Gecko is the only rendering engine that currently supports the CSS stuff needed to build these most cool menus! And for you IE users, keep this in mind: Microsoft is only going to update their browser with new CSS support (among other important things) in 2005 when their new Windows is ready... care to rethink your position about the browser you use? No? Well, OK, no problem...

Hi Oso. Well, theoretically, there shouldn't be such problems on the web but unfortunately, due to technical details I won't discuss here, there are So what do we do to keep ourselves safe? Just use regular latin letters and numbers for everything, meaning you shouldn't use spaces or characters like ç, ã, ú, etc... Try using a simple 'n' instead of 'ñ' and see how it goes. Hope this helps

I use Ximian's Evolution along with Ximian Desktop 2 -> ximian.com, ximian.com/products/evolution/ and ximian.com/products/desktop/ No virus to bother me and it has a nice calendar/PM functionality too Check the screenshots

Take out the first slash (/) from the include path. Instead of ><!--#include virtual="/includes/songheader.shtml"--> put just ><!--#include virtual="includes/songheader.shtml"--> or, better yet, you can also use a full path, like so ><!--#include virtual="/home/lyricsp/public_html/includes/songheader.shtml"--> Hope it helps

Jim, try accessing your raw log and look for the HTTP request containing that URL. On that line, take a look at the user agent part and check what software was used to access your site. There are two possibilities coming to my mind. For instance, if the user agent is something like "PHP 4.3", it means someone is using a PHP gateway/proxy installed on that server, to access your website. Also, if I'm not mistaken, there are some browsers that sometimes will send the referrer HTTP field with the current URL when you visit a different URL. i.e. someone was browsing precisionintelligence.com and then entered your website address on the browser and pressed enter. The browser, instead of not sending the referrer HTTP field, set it to the current URL (precisionintelligence.com) and sent it to the server. I never fully understood this either, though PS - edited your post to remove the live link.

Hi everyone. Simon, I don't know much about PERL myself but shouldn't the first line of the script have "#!/usr/bin/perl" instead of just "!/usr/bin/perl" (note the # at the beginning)?

Rats

Hi Simon. The last thing that comes to my mind is to ask you if the script has the usual >#!/usr/bin/perl at the beginning... I'm sorry, I'm not really a CGI/PERL expert If this isn't the answer to the problem and no one else knows how to solve it, submit a help desk ticket. It might even be a small problem with your account, or something.

Hi Simon Well, yes, /www/cgi-bin/ is the correct folder for your CGI scripts, so you got that one right But from the error message you mentioned, I think the problem might have to do with the permissions of the file. Try this: go to your CPanel's File Manager, navigate to the /www/cgi-bin/ folder, click the file you're trying to execute and then, on the right side of the page, you'll have a list of actions to perform on the file. Select the "Change permissions" option and make sure every check box on the "Execute" column is checked. And no, you don't need to rename the files' extension to .cgi, .pl should work just fine If that doesn't work, post another message and we'll dig a little more to figure out what's wrong

Go to your CPanel and under "Site Management" you'll see "Web protect". Click it...

It's working fine, now (I have a reseller account on 15, too )

Hi Dorsey. You can use PHPShell (www.gimpster.com/wiki/PhpShell) or MyShell(www.gimpster.com/wiki/MyShell). If these don't fit your needs, you may request that the gurus install Jailshell on your account (open a help desk ticket about that). Hope this helps

Hi gurl. I didn't know if that was your real password but just in case I edited it out so no one can use it for some kind of mallicious purpose. Anyway, I tried accessing h-acct.com but it says it can't find the host. Is that the same problem you're having? And could you please describe a little more the problem, like any error message you get?

Hi roadmap Well, there's two possible ways to accomplish what you want. The first one, unfortunately unavailable on TCH's servers, is using a streaming server. It's a web server specialized in serving audio and video streams over the web. In such a case, you place a link to your content with an URL such as mms://yoursite.com/blabla.asx , in case you're talking about Windows Media Streaming Audio. Your visitors will have to use a special viewer that supports the protocol you're using, though (like Windows Media Player, in the .asx case). The second option is to include an <object> tag in your pages, instructing your visitor's browser to use a plugin to play that file. Such HTML code looks something like this: ><object id="MediaPlayer" width="320" height="240" classid="CLSID:22D6F312-B0F6-11D0-94AB-0080C74C7E95" type="application/x-oleobject"> <param name="FileName" value="http://yourwebsite.com/yourmediafile.wmv"> <param name="autostart" value="1"> <param name="showcontrols" value="0"> <embed type="application/x-mplayer2" src="http://yourwebsite.com/yourmediafile.wmv" width="320" height="240" autostart="1" showcontrols="0"> </embed> </object> Note that this code is not compliant with the W3C standards, and so it may not work on all browsers. If you use a WYSIWYG editor, then I'm almost sure it has some way to insert the corresponding code for most of the existing multimedia plugins. You just need to tell it where the file is going to be

Hi Thomas. Is the "DNS" thing it asks about the first text box of them all? If so, that's the database server host name. You just need to put 'localhost' there (without the quotes).

What's Paul going to talk about?

Hmm... that seems like an incorrect MIME type... Check the MIME types on your CPanel, perhaps you're missing the MS Word one. If that's the case, try adding it: application/msword But I don't think that's the problem, though, since all servers have (or at least should have) that MIME type installed by default. I don't know Group-Office but I'd say the problem is that the PHP code isn't setting the MIME type for the downloaded data, and so the browser thinks it's receiving an HTML page instead of a Word attachment, so it proceeds accordingly: it shows the document on it's window instead of offering a download dialog to the user. Still, you say this works on your linux dev-box, so it should work here at TCH without any problems... I guess I'll have a look at that Group-Office and try to find the problem. I'll post here if I find something.

Humm... have you made the changes to the files permissions? Double check the permissions, maybe acounter.php is not set to 755. Other than that, I'm running out of ideas...

Humm... that's because PHP can't find the acounter code. Have you dropped the "http://www.avantixgroup.com" from the "include_once" line on the PHP script? Instead of >include_once "http://www.avantixgroup.com/acounter/acounter.php"; put just >include_once "acounter/acounter.php"; or you can also try this: >include_once "/home/grupo-a/public_html/acounter/acounter.php";

Be cool, roadmap, no need to stress. I didn't tell you how much it was because it's not my department. I could have told you to go to the Web Hosting Plans page and check out the prices but since I was not sure, I didn't want to say anything else. The bottom line is that you will need to submit a helpdesk ticket to upgrade your account or to know how to proceed about the payment. I can't tell you how that will work because I don't know and I'm not sure if Jim knows, either. It has to be someone from the "acouting department" to answer that one for you Trust me, someone will answer your question. You just need to have some patience and wait for the right person to come read your post

I belive you only need to pay the difference. To do that, submit a help desk ticket

NoDelty, you shouldn't have any problems at all. The only problems might be the name and username for the database, and the path for the webboard but these are easily solved by editing phpBB's configuartion file. Nothing will happen to your posts or users The process will consist basically of these steps: 1 - backing up the existing database; 2 - copying the webboard files from your current host over to TCH; 3 - importing the database into your TCH account; 4 - adjusting the database name, username, possibly password and paths in phpBB's config file; You should do this whith your current account still active, obviously. Or else you won't have access to the files I also suggest that you shut down the webboard while the transfer is made, so people don't post new messages that will not be kept on the new webboard. When the time comes, just ask for help here at the forums and we'll gladly help you out with that. Hope to see you soon

It's opening up normaly, here and the pings are what I usualy get from TCH's servers. Perhaps it was something temporary or maybe you've caught the server when Alan was performing the kernel upgrades?

Yes, that's it George. Instead of, say, "index.shtml" you'll end up with "index.php". That will work for sure but you will have to adjust all the links on your site to reflect the changes. Let us know how it goes
