Hmmm...is that a good thing or a bad thing? I guess I could rustle up a picture where I'm not squinting...

Welcome to the forums lglick. I believe that Rob's statement from October still hold true - the only way to get a custom setup is to get your own dedicated server. On our shared servers we are currently up to PHP 4.4.2 and MySQL 4.1.18.

Don't rule out your ISP either. I have hiccups in my cable all the time.

They're looking to see if you have a web server running.

Pretty much just part of life on the Internet, especially with the advent of high speed always-on connections. Port scanning is usually an automated process where someone is looking for open or unsecure ports on a range of IPs. Your job is to keep unused ports closed, and keep open ports restricted. Keep security patches up to date, keep your firewall rules tight, and keep your fingers crossed.

I use FileZilla. Absolutely free. It doesn't always make it through a long list of file transfers without disconnecting, but it's very good at picking up where it left off. Does your old host use cPanel? If it does, you could open a TCH Help Desk ticket and ask them to transfer your site from your old host to TCH.

Once you have the text file it should be easy enough to parse it and insert it into the MySQL table. It's the getting it out of Access and into a text file that makes the "one click" thing a little tough. Keep us posted anyway.

And welcome to the forums.

The redirect is in the index.php file that is installed in htdocs by default. You can delete that file.

Found it. This program from BullZip looks like it might do what you need it to do. There's an initial setup process to tell it where your Access and MySQL databases are and what you want to transfer. If you use the command line interface function you could create a simple one-click batch file for your users to click on. Just keep in mind that if you ask it to store passwords it does so in plain text. And you might want to try it all out on test databases first. I've not actually used this program before so I can't give my personal recommendation. If you do end up using it, please drop back here to let us know how it worked out.

So you dump data out of your Access database into a text file, and then you upload that data into a MySQL database? *TCH-Tim recalls seeing a post about this exact same thing not too long ago and is off to find it.

Glad you got it working.

Help desk ticket.

Welcome to the forums antz. The "cPanel stuff" is only indicating that that's where your cPanel username should be. Database names and database usernames are prefaced by yourCpanelUsername_. Is that what you have?

Make sure you have the latest drivers for your wireless adapter. My ma used to have a Sony Vaio built on the Centrino platform and it didn't support WPA. Do you have any other machines successfully connected to the AP? Does your laptop connect to the AP if you turn off WPA?

What are you using for a wireless adapter on your PC?

I noticed that in IE, but haven't figured out how to fix it yet. Works like a peach in Firefox though. I'll let you know if I find anything.

You might want to open a help desk ticket and have one of the techs take a look.

We can take both of John's menus and combine them into one somewhat dynamic menu so he doesn't need to keep track of two different header includes. Here's the relevant code that he will have in header.php (the menu runs across the top, not in the sidebar, and I took out the page sort stuff for clarity): ><ul> <?php if ( is_home() || is_single()) { $homeClass = " class=\"current_page_item\""; } ?> <li<?php echo $homeClass; ?>><a href="<?php echo get_settings('home'); ?>">Home</a></li> <?php wp_list_pages(); ?> </ul> Now I will attempt to explain. The wp_list_pages() function will generate a list of any Wordpress pages you've made. When you click on a page in the menu, the "li" for that item is given a class of current_page_item. Your CSS might say to make the current_page_item bold, or give it a white background in John's case. The question is how to make the "Home" link fit into that dynamic menu. Luckily, WP has a bunch of built-in Conditional Tags. In our case, we use is_home() and is_single() to determine if we are on the Home page or a single post page. If we are we set the homeClass variable. When the li for the Home link is generated, the homeClass variable is echoed. If we are on the Home page or a single post page, that variable will have a value that sets the li class to current_page_item and the link will be rendered accordingly. If we are on some other page, the variable is empty, nothing is echoed, and the menu item is rendered like any other li in the list. Hope that makes sense.

I'm trying this on my own server and the code Bruce posted seems to work fine (using different IPs of course). Do you have anything else in your .htaccess?

Thanks for the kind words makaveli. Welcome to the family and if you ever have any questions please feel free to ask.

Glad you got it worked out. Odd about that MS firewall though.

That's what I figured. Use the free version of Zonealarm for now - no harm no foul if you don't like it. I prefer to have it prompt me every time it needs to make a decision rather than putting it in "learning" mode. If you're lucky it will at least alert you if some rogue program is trying to access the Internet, but keep in mind it won't remove the program for you.

I've not used Zonealert. I used to use Zonealarm and never had a problem with it.

Welcome to the forums j0nnycak3s97. I'm not sure what you are trying to do. Are you trying to edit a movie down to a 24-second snippet, or are you trying to take a few screenshots of a movie, or are you trying to convert every frame of a 24-second movie into individual image files?
