    Cloud hosting rocks

    I probably should have elaborated on why I thought it was awesome. Anywho, I agree with those of you who wouldn't consider it because of the lack of infrastructure control. I believe that cloud hosting is awesome for an application where shared/managed/dedicated server hosting would be the...

    Anyone up for checking out my website pre-launch?

    The footer info is centered on the Home page, but if you access the Home page using the top menu, the footer info is not centered. White text on white background on the contact form. Are you going to have FedEx/UPS shipping updates available on your site when someone checks the status of...

    How large of a file would you upload via HTTP?

    Hmm good idea regarding the Flash solution. I just searched around a bit and found a couple of good Flash uploaders. One of the benefits they are promoting with the Flash uploaders is the handling of large files, so perhaps this might be a better solution.

    How large of a file would you upload via HTTP?

    I made an upload system based on Celeron Dude's Uploader 6 so clients can upload stuff without using FTP. What size would you allow as the largest single file for upload via HTTP? I uploaded a 100mb file that took a couple of minutes. As far as I see it, as long as PHP doesn't time out, the...

    Cloud hosting rocks

    Has anyone else tried cloud hosting? I got it a couple of days ago with Rackspace. If you know how to setup a *nix server (or willing to learn), it is ridiculously awesome. http://www.rackspacecloud.com/

    Anyone up for checking out my website pre-launch?

    I think the site looks pretty awesome and when all the products are populated, I would probably buy from it if it had something I wanted. Have you considered centering the footer? It looks just about the same width as your main content and would look much better if it was centered under it...

    Execute scriptaculous effect within JS loop

    Randomly Dissolving Image with JavaScript

    Hi Everyone, I am trying to create an effect with JS of an image that randomly appears from a shroud. What I am thinking is a black div(s) above the image, then dissolve the black div randomly. What I am running into is that all the "dissolve" methods I have found (scriptaculous, mootools...

    Inaccessible .NET types?

    Yeah, using both of those using statements. I should have included that in the code snippet. No problem, I'll send you a case of 5 Hour Energy.

    Inaccessible .NET types?

    So I found a .NET solution on a forum that I want to use, but it is way over my head. When this guy posted this, he said that "It required instances of types like "HttpServerVarsCollectionEntry", which can't aren't publicly accessible". Whenever I try to get this to work, it throws a...

    Making cool programs

    I am in college and have found that I like making programs. I like the overall goal of solving problems with software more so than the actual coding itself. Right now, I make programs that simulate cool stuff or do stuff I think is interesting. I could see myself pursuing software engineering...

    database driven sign-up list?

    That Google docs form is cool...I didnt know about that. How much can you manipulate the information sent in that Google doc form? How does the information submitted through the form integrate with the rest of your site?

    database driven sign-up list?

    I do no know of any scripts or plugins that would do this, but i would think there must be plugins like this for the bigger cms like drupal or Joomla. If your site is already up and running on not using one of these CMS, that may be an issue integrating them. To make this from scratch, the...

    Website Critique - Penny Tray

    Yeah, that should work...and it did work for me just a minute ago. Perhaps there was a space at the end? I suppose that would throw an error message. I changed that so that spaces at the end of the email address just get chopped off.

    GJSNeptune, When you mean random messaging, do you mean the type of person it goes to is random (but still cancer related) or completely random?

    Thanks again to everyone for the replies. I think I am going to move it into a two step process as suggested by NickTheNut, which I think will make it easier to impliment Lethal's extensive (and extremely helpful) suggestions. Thanks for the SS about the textbox, Ill get that fixed...

    Thanks to everyone for the replies. Working on this. Agreed and completed, except for the head. I still need to change that. I suppose it is difficult to say that something is special and random at the same time...lol I never ran into this until today. Found the problem and this should...

    Oh! Almost forgot... I am going to wipe the tables when this site is done with testing, so write whatever you want for the input fields. If you do want to write something meaningful, I will save it and import it into the final tables.

    PHP hates me

    PHP hates me

    Thanks for the help. The issue was related to some code way before where the parser was complaining. I screwed something up when a new email address was entered into the table. The seenMessages array wasnt getting inserted correctly, so that loop didnt have an array to search in. Fixed this and...

    PHP hates me

    So I have a form that does all sorts of cool things after submission. One of the cool things it does is select a random entry from one table, but makes sure that the random selection has never been seen by the email address entered in the form. If someone enters the same email address everytime...
