How can you like BOTH of those two!!!! What game is this? Hockey? Wake me when it is over.

are you using cPanel-name_username and cPanel-name_password in your configuration?

Good job guys, you deserved it. Thumbs Up

And we have users with it on their hosting accounts. You should be just fine.

To add products and make general cart changes, yes.

What changes were you making?

What's a vulnerability again? I havent seen one in a while now.

Ali or I or any of us can assist if you require it. Thumbs Up

I can not say when and if it will become a permanent fixture available but I can say that I have installed it from scratch before. You can always try that approach.

Lol, You didnt have to go that far goof.

OK, here is my osc "Robs eye view". Thoughts? I know, I need to learn to write for the web. Any good sites? According to the osCommerce website; "osCommerce is the leading Open Source online shop e-commerce solution... Everything you need to get started in selling physical and digital goods over the internet, from the Catalog frontend that is presented to your customers, to the Administration Tool backend that completely handles your online store data." Take the PR spin off of it and is it as they say it is? Pretty much, this software comes with almost everything you need to get going within a small amount of time. You can have a few products up and be ready to sell in a few hours. Built using PHP and accessing a MySQL database you may think you need a programming degree to get this up and running. osCommerce developers have made installation relatively easy. After you have unzipped/extracted the program and uploaded it to your hosting account you can access a web based installation process. You say it is in your control panel with your host? Then your install could be as easy as selecting a folder to put the software in and selecting a username and password. Now that you have it installed, how easy is customization and adding products. Adding single products is a simple process through the admin interface and we have done over one thousand via a contribution called Easy Populate. Contributions are additional features developed by the community and submitted for public use. Customization and contributions can be done but you will need to be able to follow directions. We have found even novice users can adjust to basic PHP by looking through the contributions and following the directions on its installation. If you have a good grasp of the language you can make enough changes to make it close to impossible to recognize as the software you started with or you can make it somewhere in between. What about support? All support is handled through the over thirty thousand community members via their mailing lists or online forums. You will not find a phone number to call. This is common for open source and free software. We have found the fastest way to solve our issues was to visit the forums and get our answer. Your best bet is to use the forum search function and type the error message you are getting and search ten or so pages. It may seem like alot to do but it is faster than posting and some (not all) of the members can get testy if you havent done your homework first and found one of the other hundres questions about the same issue. Navigation to products is most often through the category/sub-category/product method but there is a search feature and manufacture browsing capability as well. Keep in mind, if you have a merchant account already you will need to make sure there is a module for it to use with osCommerce. Payment gateways built in include; 2Checkout.com, Authorize.net, iPayment, PayPal, PSiGate, SECPay and TrustCommerce. If yours isn't listed here then check the contributions and there may very well be one for your gateway. There is even a contribution to help assist with search engines. There is even awebsite you can get the software from that has the most popular contributions included.

Or you can go the "serverxx.totalchoicehosting.com/~cpanel_name" way and not even have a domain name. Dont have to worry about it then.

Pick any blue name at the bottom. No blue name? Try red, any of us are willing to assist, it is why we are here.

Hey, I got that email

Never fear, I are here. Well, sort of. I havent tried to network it yet to my wifes Win machine. I start here for my FreeBSD learnin' http://www.onlamp.com/pub/ct/15 Scroll to the bottom and it has walkthroughs for sharing filesystems and networking.

Something else to consider is how other cultures view this. This site is Japanese. Not written in it but look at the copyright at the bottom, the information up top. I like anime and American comics yet I dont see it as anything sexual when I see it, in fact when I saw the case I looked right past the pose and saw some great artwork. It didnt even cross my mind. We need to take into consideration who the indended audience is and remember that the most likely motivation for this has nothing to do with what we as Americans may think it is.

Unless someone steps in and says otherwise, one page or one hundred pages and four visitors or four million matters not. These types of rules are all or nothing. Once you start making exceptions for this or that it starts getting complicated. Browsing, PM me, I have some questions for you.

Bob, Your opinion is not allowed to differ from mine.

To put it simply, it is a rule we have and it needs to be followed. You may not point another domain name to a subdomain or a subfolder on your account. It is part of the AUP, we have rehashed this over many times. To some it may seem silly but the fact is it is a rule we must follow and not something used to get more money out of you.

No, just the page of your choice. Most often the index page. With TB you pick the page before you start using the program so even if you wanted to use it on another page you couldnt without paying more.

I see what you are saying, I dont like it though. Lets do this with one of the various IIS worms out there. Lets say I am an intremediate user and installed the OS with all of the bells and whistles because it came that way, or the machine came to me with it turned on. Who knows, I may want to serve a web page someday, could be fun. Now, somebody finds an exploit for IIS and lets MS know about it. Months pass and nothing gets done about it so the guy that has found it ponders about going public but decides against it for not wanting to open a can of worms. About the same time a "code worker" finds the same "feature" yet isnt honest and knows the name he can make for himself. Next thing you know, hundreds of thousand machines are getting infected, mine included. The initial finder of the feature comes forward and states he knew about it and notified MS but nothing was done. He states he could have let the world know about it but how many people know to turn IIS off or need it running or would even read there was an issue and then someone would exploit it. Someone is going to exploit it now or a month from now. If I am going to be bent over I would at least like to know about it before hand.

Wow, that's crazy. Wonder how the airflow works in that?

Have a look here, http://www.desktoppublishing.com/java.html. This should get you started on finding something.

Madman, What if that key was the same key to every house in your town. Say some "dishonest folk" found the rock that it was hiding under and started looting every house in town with it. Letting everyone including your neighbor know what is happening may get enough people angry to make your neighbor change where he hides the key.
