 | "If it isn't working, add more features" - Peter Molyneux  |
 | Hello Daniweb, I've recently become interested in networking, especially the administrative side of it (monitoring them, managing and resolving faults etc.) and therefore I thought one of the best ways I could learn was to see what was actually happening on them. I installed Wireshark for Ubuntu, and everything seems … |

| | Yes, in any of the PCIEX16 slots, that is PCI Express and should support it. If you're upgrading your graphics card, providing it is the same slot type then you should be able to just pull out and replace. PCI is the full size card, anything with the EX or …  |
 | If you do a Google search (other search engines are available), for 'Free Website Hosting' you shall find a large number. What you won't find is a combination between free hosting and a free domain, this is because it costs to setup a domain, so what you shall get instead … |
 | I shall be honest, free hosting isn't the best. The way free hosting often works, is you shall normally be given a subdomain which sits in front of the main domain, so if I owned the hosting company *Example.com* and you owned the website *MyWebsite*, the domain would become *mywebsite.example.com*. … |
 | Are there any rules, age restrictions or specific requirements (other than it having to include the Daniweb API)? And in agreement to diafol, a very generous set of prizes!  |
| | Unfortunately, if we all had an online business that would bring in a sustainable, weekly salary... then we would all be doing it. The best place to start however is to look at two critical areas, current market trends and your interests and experience. There is no point trying to …  |
 | Not programming languages, but thought I might contribute. JavaScript: alert("Hello, World!"); Bash echo "Hello, World!" |
| | Hello cmk_96, Not having video is one of the most annoying and hard to diagnose issues, because there is no way to visually display any error messages. When you turn on any computer, it goes through what is called a POST (Power On System Test) which shall detect any issues, … |
 | Welcome to the forum! As with what JorgeM and m_ishwar have suggested, there are a lot of brilliant tutorials around the web. You mentioned you "dabble around in different areas of IT", what other areas have you experienced?  |
 | Who owns the script, does it need to be run as root and if so have you set it up under the Root Cron Daemon? Can you execute the script manually? |
| | I have Ubuntu 12.04 installed on my home web server which I am hoping to use to host my website in the near future. Security is obviously paramount, and is my primary concern at the moment. What is there that can be done to help prevent attacks? My current setup … |
| | First things first, Daniweb is not a legal community and therefore you shouldn't trust anything that you read on here to do with the law, and instead you should consult a legal solicitor or lawyer. In terms of your question, it depends on your location as to what laws you … |
| | Well, Python and Ruby are both programming languages, not scripting languages and regardless you do need to worry about syntax if you want it to work. Just a word of advice, if you only have a little experience with Python but none with Ruby (suggested by your question whether or … |
| | Re: fopen fails Make sure you are actually hitting the file, in past experience I have found that giving the full path to the file with the use of `$_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'];` works. The other thing to look at is does the web server and PHP actually have the appropriate permissions to access the file? … |
| | Please refer to the rules, the forums are designed for people to help with code however you must put in the work yourself if you want people to spend the time and help you. When you have some code to show, people shall be more than happy to look it …  |
| | I would say [Dabs.com](http://www.dabs.com) Or for your more electronic stuff/board level hardware then nothing beats [RapidOnline](http://www.rapidonline.com) |
 | Looks good, I can't see anything else to add to it and considering you haven't done much on C++ then I think this shall be a good project! Good luck.  |
 | Re: Server build The others have hopefully answered some of your questions, but just to throw in my two pence. An AMD Phenom processor should be more than capable of supporting 2-10 users, even if they are concurrant. (However it all really depends on what your server is used for, as you mentioned …  |
 | Or an alternative solution would be to hit a 3rd party service such as "What's my IP" using something along the lines of: `file_get_contents("http://bot.whatismyipaddress.com");` This shall give you the server's actual WAN IP.  |
 | Unfortunately I don't have much knowledge of VB.NET, however I would recommend you look into something along the lines of WGet. WGet is a command line utility which you might be able to incorporate into your VB scripts to achieve the same affects. This means that it is possible to … |
| | Hello Daniweb, I am facing a problem with my web host, 123-Reg and their basic Linux startup package. To summarise what this package contains, it is a small scale shared hosting environment with support for PHP. I am developing a content management system which writes data to a flat file … |
| | |
 | As far as I am aware, it wouldn't be possible to do this in PHP as PHP is rendered server side. This means that once it is sent to the client's browser, there is nothing *left* of it. At most you could echo out a JavaScript function/button combination to do … |
| | Just to add to what has already been said, crawlers don't need to follow a robots.txt file. The majority will follow it, such as Google and Yahoo's crawlers will obey to the rules but there is nothing to stop me writing a crawler to crawl your site and completely ignore … |
| | Hello Daniweb, I am trying to implement a show/hide feature for a website, to help organise the content more effectively. At the moment I am using a simple JS function that changes the .style.display of a div to either none or block. The problem is that because the content is … |
 | You can write out HTML tags in PHP as you would normally. The only thing you need to be aware of is by using speech marks you either need to escape them or use quotation marks instead. What I'm trying to say is you can't use the same set twice … |
| | Re: I am Back :) Welcome back M! So you say you've been doing your finals for the past couple of months... or where you actualy on an undercover mission with the Secret Intelligence Service? (a terrible joke and a James Bond reference for those of you who don't get it) |

| | What doesn't work about it? Seems fine when I try and use it on my web server. (Also, no need to bump threads. They shall be answered in due time.) |
| | Re: css tag h1 You can use a Class, so it would be `<h1 class = "marginClass" > Content </h1>` and the CSS would look like: h1{ font-size: 16px; font-weight: bold; } .marginClass{ margin-top: 10px; } You would then add the class section only when you wanted the tag to have the margin (pages … |
| | Re: Liquid Cooling Liquid cooling is simple and efficient (if done correctly). To answer your questions, the liquid in a closed system is normally water as it is cheap and easily replaced. By a closed system I am referring to a pump, a "jacket" and pipes. If you where to have an open …  |
| | I was wondering what had happened to the preview, at first I thought I'd lost my NoScript whitelist. Anyway, I like it... it's very clear when you have made a typo now. |
| | I would recommend buying a .com name whenever possible. In the modern market, everyone assumes it is going to be a .com and therefore if you have to keep reminding people it is .net then you are going to be loosing customers, and giving them away to the pre-existing .com … |
 | If you want to know what your network topology is, then the first thing you need to do is understand the different types. I suggest you either use the world wide web and a search engine such as Google or a book to find out the difference between a star, … |
| | Do you have any code to show us? You can either link in CSS, or write it directly to the page. If you are writing directly to the page (can get messy as you build more and more complex sites) then you would do this: <style type = "text/css" > … |
| | I can connect to the page fine. You need to remember that if you're changing a DNS record, it can take between 24 to 48 hours (can be shorter, can be longer) for servers around the world to propagate. If after 48 hours you notice no change, then you should … |

 | Re: file sharing Yes, it's called CRM (Content Rights Management) and exists on many things including music, films and games. |
 | It is a mixed boat in my mind, and it all depends on who is what and who is where. There is no point for a small flowershop sitting on a street corner to begin investing in their own server racks when an online storage solution would be cheaper and … |
| | I would begin by buying a microcontroller such as an Arduino, they start at about £20 and the IDE can be downloaded from their website along with the various documents and information you would need. Once you have that, begin by doing simple tasks and work your way up to … |

| | Sounds like a homework question, but in short it is the idea of creating an interactive web. Web 1.0 was the development of static websites, that shared information Web 2.0 is the idea of creating an interactive web, with user contributions (forums, blogs etc.) Web 3.0 is the concept of … |
| | The only real way you can build an anti-virus is first to look at how viruses are created. Once you know how viruses are created, you can begin looking at ways to detect them and how you can prevent them. This is the basis for anti-virus companies such as Symantec …  |
| | I am having some issues with the PHP Crypt Function, which hopefully someone can help me out with. I am designing a website for a sports club as a school project, and they don't want to pay for hosting that has a database. I therefore am having to make use …  |
| | With the majority of browsers, you can right click on a webpage and "View Source". What this allows you to do is look at the various bits of JavaScript, HTML and CSS which makes up the site and from this hopefully you can find what you are looking for. It … |
 | Re: server Linux is the name of the kernal, and therefore you have many different Operating Systems that can be installed on top. Probably the easiest I've ever come across is the Ubuntu Server edition which can be placed onto a CD, DVD or Flash Drive. If you download the .ISO (OS … |
The End.
