Allthough as Callum points out HTML5 and CSS3 is not wholly supported by IE as of yet, however it will not be long before the pop-ups (and inevitable TV ads) start appearing for IE9 in 2011 which is supposed to be a little more compliant with the new set of standards. So web designers should...

Most IT depts and geeks have a legit copy of XP lurking in a drawer someplace and if that draws a dead end Google for your nearest DEFCON chapter they should be able to find one for you. While your waiting why not try a Ubuntu boot disc and have a play, you may even like it.

Yes, I know where. I asked the great Google, for it knows all. http://www.tufat.com/s_free_dating_system.htm

Not being a hardcore photographer having traded in my elderly Zenit-E (it was probably older than me) some time ago and gone digital for my less than professional happy snapping I cannot offer the same depth of advice as esselar above. This really is one of those instances of where a picture IS...

Might be worth grabbing a passing artist with a copy of photoshop or Gimp to give the artwork and background images a more glossy look or metallic sheen. Never hurts to try and swap favours over at 'Worth1000.com' or 'deviantart.com' as artists make lousy web designers and vice versa. Slow...

I'll type quickly before a mod sees and locks the post lol Hacking and cracking content no matter how 'educational' is very likely to get your hosting account suspended. If you feel compelled to put this online at least head it up under 'PC Security' and leave out certian elements or...

Go for the 64bit version of Win7 otherwise your hardware is restricted to only using 4GB of RAM max, regardless of how much the motherboard will actually accept. It's hard coded into the O/S so no patch or workaround to be had folks. Have to agree with JK, it's nothing special but then I am a...

Nice idea and just out of curiosity what's the legal side of things like. Do the ads bring in enough revenue to pay the royalties? or is there a legal loophole and you don't have to pay them?

Free Web hosts in general have tightened up on 'amateur' webmasters using cURL to scrape content and I can't say I blame them. There being no such thing as a free lunch unless you steal it, which is what a lot of folk were doing. If it's just a straight read of the iTunes RSS feed/ xml file...

I for one applaud your enthusiasm but can do lttle else without a link to the site! PS: cliffw.. not Cliff Whitehead surely?

Hmmm, but surely.. any web site that provides an API feature is granting permission to query and extract information from them. Whilst this may fall under the broad description of 'scraping' it's certainly not theft of content.

Code quiz Which of these scripts is in violation of a TOS? Bonus kudos if you explain whose TOS and why. $search = "something" /// predefined or site visitor input from form field ////Code A $url="http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/videos?vq=$search=include&max-results=50"; $ch =...

Same here folks, not being timed out just kicked out. BTW.. did anybody out there have cron jobs fail on the 11th as well?

Here's a trick that every lone webmaster should find useful. A watchdog script to tell you when your web site becomes unavailable to vistors. Most web hosts are pretty good with well over 90% server 'uptimes' are to be found across the Internet, however their responsibilty stops where your code...

Lot of folk out there eagerly awaiting 'Tron Lagacy', having been around when 'Tron' was first released I shall be outside the cinema waiting as well most likely. For the less geeky and junior family members take a look at 'Tangled' a cgi reworking of various fairy-tales. Hmm what else.. oh...

Thankyou Corey, Can confirm ftp is now being be accepted by Stoli. (must of been a ***** of a problem to force a re-install)

Hi guys, I know and accept that us users of the (normally excellent) free hosting service as provided by yourselfs are the lowest priority for technical support issues. However we still have feelings and it would be nice if somebody higher up the support chain could take a minute to explain to...

Meanwhile around the web... Scattered reports are coming in of several Free Hosting providers suffering from DDOS attacks, details are scarce at this time but intial reports seem to indicate their IP ranges are being caught in the wikileaks crossfire.

One: The Basics Google does have a very comprehensive set of tutorials and tools in its webmaster section. http://www.google.com/webmasters/ that would be a good place to learn a little more. Two: Not everthing to do with the Interent happens instantly. Being indexed by search engines is a...

Well here we are again. Over 24hrs since discovering problems with the STOLI ftp and I am not alone it seems. Still.. must not grumble, after all some hiccups are expected with free hosting though this has been dragging on. ---------- Post added 12-09-2010 at 12:50 AM ---------- Previous post...
