Thanks for the shout out, rixius.

I was intrigued by the revenue sharing concept, but it seems like the problems it creates outweighs the benefits.

I took a look at their site and I agree with you Dani. There is a lot of volume, but not a lot of quality. And as you noted, the concept depends on an audience that already has an AdSense account.

Ah, are you thinking of using the new "social groups" functionality?

Hmmm.. interesting. Is there something in the new version of vBulletin that would make this easier or ??

Thanks for the quick reply! Now I know who I need to impress. ;)

I don't know about DP, but from a philosophical point of view, is that a bad thing? I can see how some people might post just for the sake of making money, but if moderators do their job, wouldn't...

Maybe you and bondito should team up. He posted very nearly the same topic (http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/thread34689.html).

Wow, this is a radical change! But once I got over my intial shock and poked around, I have to say it looks good. Nice, lean and clean looking. I'm not particularly enthralled by the curved corners...

I suggest starting by looking at an open protocol -- namely Jabber (http://www.jabber.org/). There are plenty of code examples and you'll have the added advantage of being able to add multi-network...

Actually, I love the new style as well. The new graphics might make the page a little heavy for some, but they look really great. Very nicely done!

The ads aren't overpowering -- they fit...

Anybody here know mod_rewrite?

I'm trying to do a very basic per-directory mod_rewrite.

The purple is fine, and definitely not girly. Stick with it! :)

This post (http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/showpost.php?p=93824&postcount=58) addresses the question marks in thread titles. There is still a problem with forum titles that use question marks,...

Very nice. Much easier to navigate. Seems better organized.

When can we get a sneak peek? :)

I've used Snitz (ASP), phpBB, IPB and vBulleting on different sites. I currently prefer vBulletin, mainly because it is very full-featured and there is a very extensive support network with great...

Yep, MSN and Windows Messenger both use the Internet as a sort of switchboard to establish the connection, but once you've made the connection, you go PC-to-PC.

You can use Windows Messenger on a LAN just fine, or you can use a commercial program like Trillian Pro (http://www.gotrillian.com/?98-20) which supports Apple's Rendevous protocol for LANs.

Congratulations, Dani. A tremendous milestone. You've created a great community.

Good suggestion! I'd also like to hear if anyone has ideas on the question-mark-in-forum-title bug.

There's still a bug with forum titles that use a question mark. Any ideas?

Assuming you are in fact behind a router, have you opened up those ports?

My changes are working on index.php for forum titles with question marks in them, but it's not stripping question marks from the nav. Any suggestions?

I'm also still trying to sort out...

The fix I posted above strips out question marks, so the resulting URL now looks like:

http://www.bigblueball.com/forums/f128-what-makes-you-laugh?.html (no more question mark).

Yes,...

I fixed the problem with question marks in the forum title. I had to make the following changes:

After reading the documentation, I concur that L and R do mean different things. But I don't understand why [L] would be better for SEO. In fact, according to the Apache documentation referenced, it...

I found a bug. If the forum name has a ? in it, the resulting URL fails. For example:

I'm also getting...

Thank you so much Dani! That did the trick. I mistakenly assumed that the phpAdsNew generated invocation code would be correct. I guess the ? tripped it up. :)

Ok Dani, sorry for being so dense but I think I'm getting it.

Yes, I'm using vBulletin, but I'm a little confused on how to use the source delivery option to retrieve the forumid info. I thought source looked at the URL of the current page.

I would love to be able to serve targeted ads based on the source, but would like to do that not just for the forumdisplay, but also all topics within a given forum.

For example, if the forum...

Would it be fairly easy to modify this a bit so that the URL for topics also included the forum title, but make it look like a directory?

Basically, something like this:

UPDATE:

It's all fixed now.

I had to add the margin and padding as follows:#nav-two ul {
list-style: none;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}Thanks again for your advice.

Thanks Dave. It all validates now, but the problem persists. It appears that the problem is the "broken box model" used by IE, where padding and borders are inside the DIV boundaries rather than...
