    Help setting up my hosting with my .com domain

    You shouldn't manually set the IP addresses for your domain name as they might change at some point. Start with the X10 wiki article "How to Use Your Own Domain".

    Programming Help Rules and Guidelines

    @fabiocj78, mdcbooking49: if you like something, use the "like" link. Otherwise, you're posting noise.

    Help about mySQL

    W3Schools is outdated, inaccurate and incomplete. If you follow the tutorials there, you'll have to unlearn the bad habits it teaches.

    jquery script

    It depends on the best way to relate the button to the list. If you're generating the HTML, you could use an ID selector. Alternatively, if the button and the list have the same relative position in the document structure, you could traverse the document: $('.makecomment').live('click'...

    Add friend script

    Point 1 addresses requests for programming help, while points 2-4 specifically address the OP's post, not running websites in general. Thus the post doesn't imply programming knowledge is required in general to build a site. Since the OP already has a custom code base, anything that's tightly...

    cant get my file to upload with the information going to the database.

    The files must be secondary to the site's purpose; file hosting isn't a legitimate primary purpose. If you were a musician who wanted to distribute your own music on your site, that would be fine. A music sharing site isn't. The reason file hosting isn't allowed on the free servers is they tend...

    how to create and execute echo/secure data to display

    Note that you cannot prevent someone who has access to a page from downloading it since (by definition) they must be able to download the page in order to access it.

    cant get my file to upload with the information going to the database.

    File hosting is against the terms of service. Also, your site will likely get suspended for copyright infringement under the Zero Tolerance Policy. For future reference, "it doesn't work" doesn't tell us anything. State explicitly what you expect to happen and what actually happens, including...

    Implementation of Recaptcha (help?!)

    No. If you want someone else to do your work, hire them. Otherwise be prepared to learn. Make an effort. Your site is your responsibility. There's no need to quote any part of a post, let alone the entirety, if you're not responding directly to it. Doing so lowers the signal-to-noise ratio.

    Implementation of Recaptcha (help?!)

    What version of the reCAPTCHA lib are you using? Connections to port 80 on most servers is blocked due to abuse. You could petition an admin to open port 80 for the reCAPTCHA server, which is www.google.com. There are two potential issues with this: a social and a technical one. The former is...

    PHP Mail

    @vishal_panchal91163: you're over helping again. rattonwing21 posted the same thing, word-for-word, one post above yours, which makes me suspect you copied the post for some reason. Unless you have something to add, there's no need to post. Keep the signal-to-noise ratio high.

    Add friend script

    Because: Answers that simply give teh codez aren't actually helpful. Answer seekers must develop the skills to write the code themselves. Unless you're familiar enough with programming and development, it's hard to learn the proper concepts & abstractions from reading code. If you are familiar...

    Head over heels

    This particular tutorial carries too much misinformation. As such, it should be avoided. It uses presentational tags and makes no mention of structure or semantics. It doesn't mention that elements must be nested. It calls embedded style sheets "inline style". It uses "px" units for layout...

    But please don't post all your code. Create a complete, concise sample, removing all extraneous code. @dumidu: don't threadjack. Create your own thread.

    binary to computer number systems

    The great thing about understanding numeric bases is polynomial arithmetic becomes a breeze. What's "3x²+4x¹+2x⁰" but a simpler (no restriction on coefficients and no carries in addition) numeral in an indeterminate base? Then, with a little modular arithmetic as a stepping stone to explaining...

    Insert daned

    In this case, the [php] tag would be more appropriate than [code] (which tudo2d64 has discovered). @tudo2d64: Make sure you've followed all the steps to create a MySQL user and database. The sample code is vulnerable to SQL injection, which is a very serious security risk. To fix this hole...

    i have an error in the exif_imagetype() function

    This thread is more suited for the "Programming Help" subforum. As the error message says, exif_imagetype isn't available. You'll need to use a different method. The Fileinfo extension and (deprecated) mime_content_type function don't currently appear to be available on the free hosts. You can...

    php remote address

    I see you're on Starka. The web server running on Starka was recently switched from Apache to litespeed. A difference in the setup required for the new server software appears to have been responsible for the REMOTE_ADDR not being set. Corey has changed the setup, which should have resolved the...

    Website not working

    That's nowhere enough information for anyone to do anything. Also, the free support volunteers don't have access to your account. Start with the X10 Wiki article on the "500 Internal Server Error" response, assuming that's the server error you're referring to.

    MediaWiki internal error (Unable to determine IP)

    Some X10 servers recently switched which web server software they were using from Apache to litespeed. With Apache, there was a reverse proxy running nginx. The word is the litespeed setup doesn't use the nginx proxy and a script required for the proxy was causing problems. Corey has disabled...
