    I can get in from home. Thanks, Dead-I, for the tip. Thinking of future trips, would a library WiFi be considered hostile territory?

    Internet connection has been blocked.

    I've been on vacation for the last 3 weeks, so yes, I've been using public WiFi. Mostly, I've been at McDonalds or Taco Bell. I'll be home, tomorrow, and I'll try logging on from home. I'll post the outcome on this thread, either way. Thanks.

    Forbidden: You don't have permission to access /MyHome/ on this server.

    I have no idea what's happening to me. I try to get to http://upy844.x10.mx/MyHome/ and I get this error: "Forbidden You don't have permission to access /MyHome/ on this server. Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request."...

    Texting while driving

    It strikes me that if you don't have time to drive while driving, you need to take a giant step back and see what's gobbling up your life. This applies to the fool I saw in the next lane over talking on one phone, texting on another, and driving the car (sort of) while his passenger sat idle in...

    Two problems, related or coincidental, I don't know.

    Oops! I didn't realize this was still open. I should have replied last November. The thing I was experimenting with is now up live on the website of the NFP I was helping out.

    Lost connection to MySQL server at 'reading initial communication packet'

    Thanks, Anna! You hit the nail right on the head. This is my first time putting a database on this host and I wasn't clear just how things fit together, but with your answer, things are up and running. I also like the dancing hamster on your avatar. :-)

    Lost connection to MySQL server at 'reading initial communication packet'

    Hi, I've searched the forum for this and found this question asked before but never seen it with any replies. I hope I fare better: I have a MySQL database on my account (upy844.x10hosting.com/MagIndex), and some PHP programs that try to access it. Unfortunately, when they try to connect it...

    Two problems, related or coincidental, I don't know.

    Is this because I'm not supposed to be doing RSS, or is this a glitch so that RSS will again work when this is fixed?

    Two problems, related or coincidental, I don't know.

    Problem 1: I am experimenting with a new web site on http://www.upy844.x10hosting.com/GAALC/schedule.php and as of Saturday night, it worked. The page reads an RSS feed: http://upy6900.limewebs.com/?feed=rss2 and displays it using a program called schedule.php. Today, I have been getting...

    Account mail getting php errors regarding a device out of space.

    When I try to view my account mail, I login, then click on the link to account mail and get to the menu that shows which software to use to view mail. At this point, I'm still shown as being logged in. I select squirrel mail and get a window with an error message saying that I must log in to...

    Your food is poisoned - must read

    Fear itself is probably not the only thing we have to fear, but it's a big one. When electric lights first came out, there were fear mongers convincing us that lightbulbs would cause sterility in men. Then, when nuclear power and radioactivity were new to the public awareness, sci-fi horror...

    Live forever?

    I believe that we shall all live forever in either Heaven or Hell. I would like the former and dislike the latter (if I may make a towering understatement). I assume, though that this question comes more from a Dracula-like assumption of living forever in this life. My answer to that question...

    PHP MAIL function only used to work

    About a month ago, I had a website working that had a form to send an email. This was on www.upy844.x10hosting.com which is on the chopin server. At the time, the PHP code that did the MAIL function was in cgi-bin. That stopped working. I just got a big error message when I tried to execute...

    We are connected, but not united why?

    Imagine this scenario: You're driving down the highway and a reddish car zooms past you like you're standing still. You say, "Man! That red car was really flying!" Your passenger angrily rebuts you. "No! That car was maroon!" And, a great big so what? We've missed the point with...

    Web browser cannot connect to www.upy844.x10hosting.com.

    When I try to use www.upy844.x10hosting.com on Hosting Server chopin, the web browser cannot connect. I can FTP to and from the directories, but the website, itself does not work. The account status shows as "unsuspended". Is there some sort of known problem connecting to that subdomain...

    We are connected, but not united why?

    Unity requires a shared goal. A shared goal requires a moral consensus. Moral consensus requires that truth be more than an opinion and that morality be more than an emotion. Otherwise, where we stand will always depend upon where we sit and never upon a shared principle. Then social order...
