  1. You didn't have to add another else if just editing the final else would of dealt with midnight till 0400.
  2. I just noticed that if the time is between 0000 and 0359 you have it set to use tree_sunset.css but wouldn't tree_twilight.css be a better choice ? BTW it works fine here in Firefox but is getting messed up in IE6. Might just be the works machine though.
  3. >var css = '<'; css+='link rel="stylesheet" href=' + display + ' \/'; css+='>'; That strikes me as a bit much. This should work just as well >var css = '<link rel="stylesheet" href="' + display + '">';
  4. Lazarus 1.7.3 has been released to patch a cross site scripting vulnerability that existed in the admin file.
  5. That's an understatement. MySpace displayed a banner last year that utilised a Windows vulnerability to infect everyone who viewed it with spyware or a botnet trojan. I can't remember which. Most browser now warn about phishing sites and Google actually warns if you click on a link from a search and they consider it to be bad.
  6. Or try 7-Zip or Izarc.
  7. Given that all this can be easily bypassed by turning javascript off would there be much point?
  8. The only way to detect their timezone would be to use javascript to get their computers time and then compare it with the servers time and calculate the difference. Or use IP tables to determine their location from their IP.
  9. Have a look at www.opensourcecms.com where you can test several forum scripts and even log into the admin sections.
  10. Use é or change your charset to utf-8 or one that supports é
  11. The cheating way would be to slap the lot in a table and use valign="middle" on the TD. You could use javascript to set the top margin dynamically dependant on the screen height.
  12. Setting up a mailing list to send out news letters is pretty simple. I personally use Dada mail. The simplest way to password protect an area of your site is to use a htpasswd file.
  13. I'm using a 14" as I've had it for a few years and see no reason to update. Many companies also use 14" monitors for the same reason. You also have to think about laptops. My laptop is brand new but only has a 15.3" monitor. Not everyone has a brand new computer and so will more than likely still have their old monitor.
  14. I'm a PHP coder and I use a 14" monitor at 1024x768. A lot of people still use 14" monitors.
  15. Yes but I find things like Fantastico also encourage laziness. People install scripts using Fantastico or similar and then forget about them until they find there version is very out of date and ful of exploits (not that I'm saying SMF 1.1.1 has exploits). I encourage people to do things for themselves otherwise they will never learn.
  16. Hate to be blunt but SMF is simple to install using their single file webinstaller. All you would need to do is supply the database details.
  17. My bad I thought we were discussing a page you had made. Opera has it's fast forward feature which may work or use Firefox and turn on Find as you type.
  18. Well on my site most users are on 1024x768 but then I also get lesser but equal amounts on 800x600 and 2000x1024. I personally still fix the width of my sites to 760px so it fits on 800x600 with no horizontal scroll. I don't advise using variable widths due to the fact that you get people on 800x600 but you also get people on widescreen. I mean if your layout is realtively simple and looks as good on all widths then go for it but be aware of the risks. As for font sizes thats a hell of a pickle due to the various resolutions. Most web browsers now come with zoom as opposed to Microsofts old text-size setting so if they cannot see your text they can zoom in. As I said I code for 800x600 (I've been around a while) but I'd say there is nothing wrong in writing for 1024x768 as viewed on a 17" monitor. If we were to try and encompass all sizes that would include such things as my HD TV which is 32" with a resolution of 1033x720.
  19. Just some minor suggestions with your code 1 - Always use single quotes around strings and not doubles. This is because PHP reads through double quoted strings looking for variables everytime it comes cross it. Same applies to array keys. You only need double quotes when using special characters such as \n \t etc. 2 - use "NAME" <email@address.com> to add a more personal touch to your emails (I know you are only sending to yourself right now).
  20. Or possibly the first user sent the second user a link with their sessionid in it. Bad coding if that is what happened and highly unlikely with SMF.
  21. Why not just add this to your .htaccess AddType application/octet-stream .mov
  22. You canmake the link the first thing the focus goes to when tab is pressed by using tabindex="1" there is also a way to assing a key to a link so that ALT + thekey would activate the link.
  23. 23 but I play this on my friends forum.
  24. I wrote a contact form for a small business site I made and it got spam. I added CAPTCHA to it to stop automated posting.
  25. Have a look at a site such as www.hotscripts.com which offer a large amount of scripts.
