DNS has nothing to do with this. sFTP and DNS is two entirely different protocols. Contact you host.

Yes it would be. I'm pretty sure Nintendo has trademarks for every thing they use.

New Game Engine Development (Coder Needed 750$)
Spudinski replied to Asap2stack's topic in Other Game Engines
750USD for six months, full time devoted to you? Have fun searching for someone who wants to work for 1.28USD an hour. -
A question about modular programming in C++. Oh the joys. To answer it, yes, it's possible to link the files. AFAIK, sources files are converted to .obj's, and linked together after compilation by the linker to form the lib/executable. You do not need to per say "include them", as it's linked afterwards. I'm not saying "#include <myfile.c>" won't work(it will), it's just not very proper to do so. What you do rather in C/++/insert-random-descendant-here, is create header files. Those are very easy to spot, as they carry an extension .h. One would define the functions(among others) in there, and then include it in the main .c script, eg. "#include <myfunc.h>". Ref 1: http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/cpp/Include-Syntax.html Ref 2: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Header_file Ref 3: http://www.cplusplus.com/forum/articles/10627/

This whole thing seems very fishy... the book, the site, the people. Something doesn't add up somewhere.

Paying 5$ for someone to install wayofthemafia script

Common DNS problems and diagnosis: 1. DNS is not relayed to local servers yet. This is very common when first registering and/or updating a domain name, and is though there is nothing you can really do to speed it up there are a few things you can try. a) Use Google Public DNS: http://code.google.com/speed/public-dns/ b) Edit your hosts/resolv file to point to the server IP. And refresh cache 2. DNS isn't setup correctly This is somewhat harder to diagnose and repair, as there are a number of things that could be wrong. a) nslookup/dig domain.com, if you're using dig, search for an A record, else with nslookup specify a nameserver(eg. ns1.host.com). b) Use commercial tools like DNSStuff to give a status report. These are just a few things that could be happening, and a few solutions for them. -
"I agree to Terms?" Which terms. Edit: you need to link the terms.

I don't recommend online "tutorials". They are biased and doesn't offer much of an explanation of what is happening. I'd suggest you attempt an HTML book. Or a mixed one, like DHTML which would contain basics on HTML, CSS and Javascript. Once you know the language of the internet, get a book on PHP and preferably also a book on how the internet works, DNS, TCP/IP, etc. PHP is a very nitty gritty language compared to say Ruby, as you are dealing much more with the raw elements of the web(eg. protocols). For all you needs on books I would recommend O'Reilly, just don't get "in a Nutshell" editions, they won't help you much. If you can find what you need on O'Reilly, search Amazon, and read the reviews before you decide on a book. PS. W3Schools ~ W3Fools. kthanksbye.

Hey man, enjoy your day!

My idea on what goes these days are something resembling desktop games. I mean, if you look at it, it's based on the same building blocks... minus the 3D. People also tend to prefer busy(non-simplistic) templates for games.

No, I'm just giving the OP advice from a personal perspective... CSS has it's advantages too.

Custom: http://css-tricks.com/simple-jquery-dropdowns/ Pre-made: http://www.1stwebdesigner.com/css/38-jquery-and-css-drop-down-multi-level-menu-solutions/ It does require jQuery, but it's much easier to maintain than a pure CSS3 one... which in my mind isn't practical. 50+ stylesheet definitions, versus less than ten lines of jQuery.

Thanks for mentioning that silly mistake of mine. Even if it was written with PHP5 in mind, I get why something like this is not implemented. My best guess would be conforming to a specific coding style. But, please be aware that this is not to discredit MCCodes, it's the other way around actually. This is just a simple hack I mostly use on development environments, it's a short-cut method of doing things that isn't possible with the current MCCodes architecture.

I have to admit it's been some time since I laid my hands on an MCCodes script, so best practices out the window. I would like to give MCCodes developers a useful tip. How many times haven't you missed a $h->endpage(); initialization? I know I have had my fair share of times. When it comes to output buffering for template systems, it's really a nuisance to work with. So, I've come up with a hack for it... MCCodes uses a class named headers for all it's templating needs, and using a bit of OOP knowledge one can automatically "close" a script that doesn't have the endpage() initialization present. It's called a destructor. It executes automatically every time the class is destroyed, or in human terms, when the script has finished executing. One can simply place the endpage() initialization in there, with a logical statement, so that you never get caught of guard by it again. So here's a little bit of code that could make your life easier... It works on all versions of MCCodes, to my knowledge that is. <?php class headers { // simple $h->endpage missing fix private $page_closed = false; function __destruct() { if (empty($this->page_closed)) $this->endpage(); return true; } // the rest of the script function endpage() { global $db,$c,$userid, $set,$ir; $this->page_closed = true; // rest of code } } // end of headers{} It might be useful to some, and not to others. But I just thought I would share this age old hack. Spudinski.

It a fun trivia game, I like it personally. The biggest reward is completing something like this. Though, you could be a bit more descriptive. On Q3 I actually searched for symbols used before the ellipse(...).

Geesh. Only got to Q4, but would've never guessed the answer for Q3. I was hinting towards PHP/FI. :\ The /B was really a hint. :P

That's quite biased from you. Don't get me wrong, I tend to love innovation as much as the next guy. But an entrepreneur does sell a product, whether it be themselves or service. The product is either you, or the customer with web development. Since it's in the tertiary sector(services), innovation is a big step to take, but I agree, some form of uniqueness is required but, it's not very achievable in today's markets(recession). It's to do with the audience of the product, as they prefer a proven product over a (new) unproven equal. I could dissect most aspects of it, but I don't think it's quite relevant here.

A site which teach you the basis of Javascript
Spudinski replied to a_bertrand's topic in JavaScript
Not really useful to anyone. jQuery has a lot more uses than to simply animate an object. Ref: I took both Quizes quickly, it's nothing compared to the real world application of jQuery. Or Javascript for that matter. I wouldn't recommend that "course" to anyone. Rather pick up a good book and read. -
From a business perspective, if they say "entrepreneur" you should be allowed sell in multiple categories. I've never met an "entrepreneur" that only sells one thing. If I can give you a strategy for pursuit, if you want to go with development work: I suggest you advertise beforehand, since you are going to attempt to sell to a very specific market you will need to attract specific customers. There shouldn't be anything in the rules that disallows this, since one of the beginning step in business is getting to know your audience. Another thing you could do, is peacocking. In a business environment, this would mean drawing potential clients' attention to something at your stand. Let's say you want to take your laptop with you for presentation, rather take a desktop PC and set it up in an unusual manner that is relevant towards what you're selling. In your case, try to draw attention to the fact that you are selling websites. A banner is a good idea, just don't overdo it. If you use a banner, use a slogan that tickles the tongues of people who say it. It has to get them interested enough to come and see what you are about. Or, you can use wording that is common in your area, like slang or politics(not childish humour though).

There is a clear winner. But that's not what we're discussing. We're talking about the benefits between having, and not having a closing tag present. But, kudos for following a coding style. @Danny, I'm not biased. Though I prefer to use closing tags, I don't see why it's needed or not needed. It's down to preference in my eyes, nothing else. Except of course other technical sides of it, as mentioned before.

@alian: hash: In theory, a login form should take longer to break than a simple hash. Assuming you know nothing about the username/email/possible passwords. php: I think were actually talking about the same aspect of it. So really, the creators of PHP doesn't know better than a random idiot who posted in their comments section? I don't care if you know a language for 10 or even 20 years, you're an idiot if you go against it's creators.
