  1. Hello, You not running a local site with the same domain name which is edited into your local hosts are you? A reboot should solve the problem, I use firefox and IE when doing anything with sites Jimuni
  2. Hello, Yes the page is about includes, but the paths for php remain the same, hope it was not too confusing! >"/styles/sdi3column_allbrowsers.css" This is an absolute path, so no matter where you place it, it will always pull that page. If however, you are creating the 401 from a sub folder, e.g. www.domain.com/subfolder/401.php Even though your pulling the file from the root, the relative path is still www.domain.com/subdfolder/401.php Hence the original >styles/sdi3column_allbrowsers.css would not have worked as you it would be looking to pull: www.domain.com/subdfolder/styles/sdi3column_allbrowsers.css and you would have needed to have put >../styles/sdi3column_allbrowsers.css for the page to work correctley I think anyway!

  3. Hello, Have to agree with TCH-Don, all pictures are there and readily viewable! Jimuni
  4. Hello, You would have to do a redirect, I believe that using .htaccess is your best bet. However, it would be noticeable and I don't believe you could hide the plasma-faq bit. The example given above already has the forum in the root folder, which gives the effect in the domain name Why not have the forum in the root? Jimuni
  5. Hello, It has all to do with paths. Rather then try and explain and re-write the wheel so to speak, have a look here: http://www.phphelp.com/strands/article/000012.php Its rather useful! I often use ><?php include $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']."/inc/navmenu.php"; ?> When hard coding a line in but Bruce's one is just as good Jimuni
  6. Hello, At the end of the day, nothing is going to stop a spammer from sending an email to an email address, they don't even have to know it exists, e.g. many people who have sites have say administrator@mydomainname.com or webmaster@domainname.com and hence spammers just pick the "mydomainname" and just send it, regardless of whether they have seen it or not. Whilst I can not see a problem with the JPEG its just another step. I would suggest using javascript. I have one that jumbles it all up on the page / code but clicking on the link actually gives the correct @ address. Just a thought Jimuni
  7. Hello, I use a cronjob to call a php page which empties a table for me every so often. It emails me the results of it being cleared, so i would suggest something like that Jimuni
  8. Hello, Do you have a URL for us to look at? Did you do this as a cpanel install or normal FTP upload for phpBB? Jimuni
  9. Hello, As a web designer, I gave up some while ago about not being fully supportive for thoose browsing on the 800 resolution and now stick to the minimum being 1024 wide, I have yet to have anybody complain to me about this Jimuni
  10. Hello, Without knowing where this has come from, its hard to say. However, I would hazard a guess thats its carrying a session, which is a way of websites keeping track of vistors without having to set a cookie (or they can do both) Jimuni
  11. Welcome to the forum Angruth too. Just being curious, why the move to IMAP? Jimuni
  12. Hi, I would also check my firewall settings just incase its being blocked there. However the ISP block would be where I would put my money. Try the suggestions noted above Jimuni
  13. Ah, if only the British didn't call their came football too! Been to a few games in the states, well worth it in my opinion! Ta for the commericals Jimuni
  14. Or block the IP Jimuni
  15. Hello, From my memory: 1) In changing your domain name servers, the MX zone is updated where your "where to send email" is kept. Thus, by changing your nameservers, your email is automatically updated for you. Note that nameserver changes can take upto 72 hours (not TCH fault, thats the average time for a domain name change) so don't panic if your domain name is still looking the wrong way. 2) The WHOIS part, your records are with held only from the public, all records are still kept private so they know who to send emails too etc. Jimuni
  16. Hello, Try joomla, this is one of the best CMS i know around Jimuni
  17. Hi, If i am correct, if you do a "include once" done in PHP, the user does not know where the file is pulled from or even what it is called. I don't know if this is any help? Altertively, use my old friend the htaccess, this is taken from another page about a weblog, but I believe the principle should be the same. Should sort out your problem! Jimuni
  18. Hello, I would suggest either, as mentioned above upgrading can be done in touch of a button. I would make sure that you keep your pictures to managable size and if using alot, use some sort of gallery software like gallery 2, coppermine or any of the other amazing scripts out there Jimuni
  19. Hello, Its been a while since I used flash, so I had to look this up, you can modify the call target from the following link to do what you want: http://www.awprofessional.com/articles/art...=20964&seqNum=5 Goto "Other movies (Tell Targets)" about 2/3 down the page which tells you how to start playing in another movie line. Jimuni
  20. All, Hot-linking is a bad crime and its really annoying, however, I have found one thing, its pointless stopping one photo being used, because before long, you will find another person has taken another photograph and so on and so on till you get to the point where in 6 months time, you are having to stop hotlinking about 1000 pictures Its very hard, if not impossible to work out where your images are going. The only real way is to download your raw logs and use a free web log anazler to look through and see if you can spot trends to where the pictures are going. If your like me though, that could involve 10s of forums. What I found was to use the htaccess way to stop hotlinking. It also means I can add in domain names where i post and may want to post a picture up. Post this into your .htaccess file, changing what the domainname.com for your own domain name. >RewriteEngine on RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^$ RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://(www\.)?domainname.com(/)?.*$ [NC] RewriteRule .*\.(gif|jpg|jpeg|bmp)$ - [F,NC] You can then add in places where you post and may want to use your own pictures, e.g. >RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://www.wabbithole.com/lists/ [NC] The NC means it doesnt matter whether its written in caps or not, while the F forbids any of the aforementioned files from being referenced outside, you can all manner of files endings there. You can also find my very old topic on this: http://www.totalchoicehosting.com/forums/i...968&hl=htaccess Ta Jimuni
  21. Hello, Some browsers can not as clever as others, and some just don't like exeternal files unless put into the web page correctley, thus you can always try the following. This is for activeX Windows Media Player which is installed on 99% of computers. ><object width="320" height="290" classid="CLSID:22d6f312-b0f6-11d0-94ab-0080c74c7e95" id="mediaplayer1"> <param name="Filename" value="film.avi"> <param name="AutoStart" value="True"> <param name="ShowControls" value="True"> <param name="ShowStatusBar" value="False"> <param name="ShowDisplay" value="False"> <param name="AutoRewind" value="True"> <embed type="application/x-mplayer2" pluginspage="http://www.microsoft.com/Windows/Downloads/Contents/MediaPlayer/" width="320" height="290" src="/support/dreamweaver/ts/documents/film.avi" filename="kids.mpg" autostart="True" showcontrols="True" showstatusbar="False" showdisplay="False" autorewind="True"> </embed> </object> Things you have to watch for are: Height and width must be the same for both the embeded and the object parts (You need both because not all browsers like embeded, and wrapping them the way they are above will sort out any backwards compatability The rest of the options are pretty self explantatory. As Bruce mentions above, video eats up bandwidth and like Bruce, I neither use or recommeded Frontpage. Jimuni
  22. Hello Rob / Don, Yes life is a bit less hectic now so I can come back to my old haunts and try and help others out too Jimuni
  23. Hello, Having a look at this in firefox and IE, i can tell that the problem doesnt lye with the Firefox or IE but in the way its coded, ie its done using scripts rather then normal CSS which if done correctley, is quite simple to do. Also, you have meta tags showing the email address. I would take these out before they get harvested and put into spam blocks Jimuni
  24. Hello All, I have fixed this, and here is the simple fix: >$site = "domain-name.com"; NOT: $site = "www.domain-name.com"; $site = "http://domain-name.com"; $site = "http:/www.domain-name.com"; Yay! Jimuni
  25. Hello Bruce, Yes tried this a few times, still fails to work. I have it working on another domain, just not this domain in question. Doh Jimuni
