    Can money buy true happiness?

    Lack of money can cause stress ... and ... ... money can create time you didn't have ... ie hiring someone to do your lawn work or laundry ... which would allow you to spend your time with family, on a sailboat, or feeding the homeless

    FrontPage not connecting to server extensions

    I'm not having any issues publishing with MS Visual Studio (which uses Frontpage extensions). One difference is I'm publishing to an ftp location rather than a http location. I think when X10 is working on their Apache server, it affects http locations but not ftps. Just my guess.

    Speech Recognition Software

    http://images.google.com/ http://video.google.com/ http://www.youtube.com/ (owned by Google) I'm speculating how they use recognition algorithms to supplement their search algorithms. I know they hire phd's in computer vision (image and video recognition specialists). Their internal...

    Speech Recognition Software

    They are knee deep in the latest image and video recognition algorithms already. Currently, I would guess that their image search relies primarily on tags (direct and indirectly). Another likely input is what user's click on after a particular search. Image and video recognition are probably...

    Speech Recognition Software

    It, like image recognition (just voice recognition in 2+ dimensions) and action recognition (3+ dimensions), is a very difficult problem. While better algorithms and faster hardware will always make these technologies improve, there are some who believe there is a ceiling that can never be...

    Speech Recognition Software

    What is Dragon Naturally Speaking? My guess is you train it to recognize your voice and eventually you can "write" a paper using only your voice ... at least that's the goal. So how does that tie into your website? Do you want your website to have that type of functionality? And sorry, I...

    ASP.NET "DllNotFoundException: gdiplus.dll"

    Did you FTP files? Maybe consider using Visual Studio's publish command which will move all the required files onto X10's file system. And since you're using Visual Studio, I would imagine it is ASP.NET as I don't think Visual Studio explicitly supports ASP in recent versions.

    ASP.NET "DllNotFoundException: gdiplus.dll"

    No. Are you getting that on your website or building locally with Visual Studio? If locally, are you running as Admin or a Standard User? While not the same error, I've seen similar errors running Visual Studio w/o Admin rights.

    PHP mail()

    Actually, I was able to get a mail form working using PHP's mail() function. Code is from W3schools.com http://www.wyrbel.com/contact.php

    PHP mail()

    If and when php.mail() gets re-enabled, X10 will create a read-only php.ini file that will have my X10 email settings in it? I'm just trying to understand how this all works.

    PHP mail()

    Anyone have an example of a php.ini file with email configured? I'm learning I need to have one either in public_html or the .php folder. Thanks, PHP noob

    PHP mail()

    If mail() was disabled, what would be the norm for creating a Feedback or Contact form on a webpage? The fsockopen() you just mentioned? Thanks
