I made a page with a contact form that posts to a file containing this code: mail( "whatever@wherever.com", $subject, $message, "From: $email" ); I have my own email address in the whatever@wherever part and the other variables are filled in correctly. It works when I test it locally but it...

It's not even related to the browser - I checked the page in IE and it was doing the same thing even though I hadn't used IE at all since before I added the htaccess file in the first place (so it couldn't have been cached). Maybe it's just a mystery, or maybe it's just because I really don't...

OK, I was wrong - this problem is happening again. I physically removed the htaccess file from the folder and it's still acting like it's there. The mod rewrite rules I wrote in it are still being processed, even though there's no htaccess file there. Has it been cached or something? How can I...

What status site did you look at? All the status sites I looked at say something different.

If the stats don't work then how are we supposed to know when things are down vs. when our scripts are just wrong? :rant2:

I'm not sure if that's what it was. It was working fine for a while, then this problem suddenly appeared where it didn't seem to be updating anymore when I changed something and reloaded the page. After a while, when I coudln't find an answer anywhere, I looked at the file in windows explorer...

I'm testing using mod rewrite on my computer. When I add a rewrite rule to the htaccess file it goes into effect immediately (without even restarting Apache), but when I remove a line it still acts as if the line were there. For example, I created a rule to change requests for .htm to .php and...

Can we use mod rewrite in .htaccess files if we have free hosting?

As of right now everything is up except http.

How do page views and statistics in cPanel (like awstats) work with php pages? When the php file is accessed, does it log the same information it would with an html file? If I change my site over to php pages, will I still be able to view the same statistics?

Oh I didn't even think of that :laugh: Now I can reload 700 times to check something without feeling guilty. :biggrin: Thanks to everyone for not making me feel like a moron for asking a noobish question like this.

Thanks Corey. I know you all are busy right now, I just wasn't sure if keeping the ticket open like that was the correct thing to do.

Thanks everybody! I did notice when the modem was turned off I could still access localhost but I wanted to double check that it wasn't going through the modem when it was on.

Does anyone know?

I have apache on my computer to test websites. When I access something through localhost, does it use up bandwidth from the ISP, or does it not even go through my ISP at all?
