  1. I have given someone an e-mail address using my domain name, and it has been working fine for months. However, recently, this person (my dad, actually) sent an e-mail to someone, but apparently he sent it to an incorrect e-mail address. The result, though, was that I was the one who received a "Mail Delivery System" error on my main account, rather than my dad receiving it on his account. Is this the standard way that it should work? I know his account is configured correctly, yet somehow I'm the one getting the error e-mail (including, by the way, the entire contents of the e-mail my dad was sending to someone else). Is there anything I can do about that, or is it related more to the destination server of the original e-mail? Hope my question makes sense. Thanks for your help. Norm Krumpe
  2. I apologize if this goes off on a tangent, so yell at me if I should post this elsewhere, but... I know a little HTML, even less CSS and JavaScript, but I'm working every day to learn more. I concluded, from another thread, that I should generally "stay away from frames" when designing a site. But is your decision to avoid tables based on the context of the particular problem you are trying to solve, or is there a similar "stay away from tables" motto I should know about? My instincts would have told me to go with a table for what you are trying to do. But I honestly would like to learn more about why tables would NOT be good approach here. Or, more generally, could someone point me to a good reference on how to decide when I should choose tables or css or frames, or what. I'm fine with teaching myself the technical side of any of these topics, but I would love a little guidance on the relative merits and drawbacks of each. Sorry for the tangent discussion, but I'm just trying to get a bit smarter about things.
  3. The game is just one of many variations of a game called NIM. Check out the following: Dr. Math talks about NIM It doesn't describe this variation exactly, but it's close enough.

  6. I'll be darned! Thought I had tried that before, but with no luck. But it works swell. (Or is it "swelly"?) Thanks!
  7. It could be related to rules imposed by your Internet provider. I'm with RoadRunner and need to set my SMTP information to RoadRunner's service. In fact, I have to do this for all my e-mail accounts...keep the POP info as specified for that particular account, but set each of the SMTP settings to RoadRunner's SMTP info. This could very well be what's causing the problem. Norm Krumpe

  10. Do you have an idea of when beta testing may begin? It's close to time for me to renew with another host, but I'd rather not if this is happening soon. Thanks!
  11. It wasn't listed as an addon script for me either (Server 16). But, I dropped opened a support ticket and it was quickly added.
  12. I've been waiting for this news for a while. Seems there's not much of a selection when it comes to Windows hosting. Trying to find a reasonably priced Windows host with pricing and user forums that were comparable to TotalChoice seemed impossible. Sounds like that will soon change. Yes, I am interested.
  13. Thanks for checking. When I log in to CPanel, it says, "Welcome to Server16".
  14. When I go to CPanel and list the "Addon Scripts" under the "CGI Scripts", the only thing I see listed is Invision Board. Nothing is listed for PHPNuke. It sounds as though I SHOULD be seeing PHPNuke, but don't. Any thoughts? Thanks. Norm Krumpe
  15. Good to know I'm not alone!
  16. Ok, but my "user" is me. I created the database, say D. I created some user, say U. I added user U to database D. Shouldn't it be possible for me to specify what privileges U has on my database? That's what's confusing me. I realize that I might not want U to grant or revoke privileges for another user, but shouldn't I be able to grant or revoke privileges to/from U, since I created U and the database myself? Thanks for bearing with me on this.
  17. In fact, and maybe this is related... I also can't use phpMyAdmin to create a database. It's giving me the same error message described in my previous post.
  18. Tried your suggestion, and still get the same Still stumped, but thanks for the suggestion. Norm
  19. Thanks for a quick response and, yes, I did the necessary prepending. So, based on your guess, it looks like I can't do it. Being new to this (surprise, surprise), does the fact that I can't grant privileges via phpMyAdmin imply that I won't be able to grant privileges via a little PHP scripting? Or, are these two things independent? Thanks again.
  20. It seems that there have been some posts related to this topic, but none quite answers my question, so here goes. Is it possible, using the SQL window in PHPMyAdmin, to issue GRANT commands? I have created a database, created users, assigned those users to the database, and have tried things like this: >grant select, insert on databasename.* to username identified by 'password' But what I get every time is the message: >Access denied for user: 'myusername@localhost' to database 'databasename' Any thoughts on what I'm doing wrong? Thanks for your help! Norm Krumpe
