I can only connect to the web via IE or Outlook right now, and IE can't connect to SSL sites.

Seems like a firewall issue, but even when I have my firewalls and anti virus turned off- no dice. ...

Hey Chris, thanks for lending a hand here. I really appreciate it- I tried your suggestion, but it didn't work. I think the problem is with the installer. I'll shoot you a PM.

Thanks man!

Can somebody point me in the right direction? I can't instal any programs on my Sony Vaio- when I try, I get a prompt that says "Starting Install Wizard" that just hangs and doesn't do anything.
...

For some reason when I try to install most software, I click on the setup.exe file and then nothing happens. I tried to fix the problem by installing hte most recent version of windows installer,...

We run a .Net environment, and we are adding a blog to our site. We would like to keep it consistent (keep it in .Net) and we would like to get the most bang for our buck (or free if it exists lol)....

I actually prefer the look of the design without the spacing, but in this case I think the gain from the usability is greater than the loss of design, since it still looks fine with the spacing.
...

I just installed the first VB forum that I own yesterday (www.mysportsforum.com) and this tutorial is DA BOMB baby!

Thanks everybody!

Google can determine if sites are relevant to each other using the same algorythms it uses to find if phrases are searched on.

Michele, you are fine linking to another site if it makes sense,...

hey, thanks to anybody who helped me get links. I won the competition WOOOHOO!!!

so now I am taking down all my links - watch my ranks plummet!

btw- I won this competition - I was the first to #1 so I am taking down my sitewide links. Don't be surprised if Travis' page gets the top slot immediately after I take down my links ;-)

Ever have one of those silly SEO contests? Well I am in one right now.

My friend from work, Travis Newman, thinks he can rank higher than I can and more quickly for the name Mark Ashworth. Mark is...

When a company makes the decision to create a website, their potential market is greatly expanded, but so is the competition. All of sudden you’re not only competing with the business down the road,...

DANI I am sorry. I must now commit sepukku for disrespecting you like that.

MARK ASHOWRTH!!!!!!!!

(had to put more text in there) :lol:

Danny, will you marry me?

OK, sorry for the totally random Mark Ashworth post, but my friend from work, Travis Newman, thinks he can rank higher than I can and more quickly for the name Mark Ashworth. Mark is a guy who sits...

yup, seems they do. Mambo is quite a nice and robust CMS, but it is a bit more than I need. I may just have to write my own :\

I am looking on hotscripts (http://hotscripts.com/PHP/Scripts_and_Programs/Content_Management/) for content management systems, and there are just so many. Many of them are bloated with junk I don't...

Flash, an interactive, multimedia format, was introduced to web design only a few years ago. It was heralded as an absolute breakthrough in Internet technology. Web designers were soon rushing to add...

Hi Guys,

we set up a load balancing dual server set up for a company I work for, and now I have to manage 2 remote copies of files. Iw as wondering if any FTP software had the ability to either...

Hi Les, no offense but it looks like your web designer may have been run out of town! :lol:

Sorry, kidding. If you have contribute you can control a lot of elements on your site, but you have...

Thank you... I have been saying this for months and have been catching a lot of heat for it.

just ask dani :p

I think it probably also has something to do with their IPO. There is no logical reason for google to cause any kind of shake up or stir in their rankings that could **** some people off while their...

no help? Anybody have any ideas?

I just decided to put a sub domain on my directory, but the .htaccess rules I wrote don't apply for the subdomain.

Here are the code snippets, can anybody see what I am doing wrong here?
...

Hey, Adobe is great for making graphics, but be careful using the HTML their products produce from slicing. It tends to write bloated code at times and it is somtimes not as cross browser compatible...

hey Dani... PR is poop! :p

neener neener neeeeener!!

The backlinks shown seem more accurate than before. The command www.domain.com -site:www.domain.com used to return a more true count of people linking to your page (usually double or triple the...

Slade, for more graphical designs this is usually not the case. I am a fan of table-less design, the code is so flexible and clean and easily managed with an external CSS file, but I dare you to get...

that settles it SEO Guy, can you get me banned too please?

if you alter the same script that generate the tables, get rid of the <table> and </table>, get rid of all </tr>, replace all instances of </td><td> with a tab, and replace all instances of <tr> wit...

When designing fixed width, try to design for 744. IE on a mac is the smallest screen I design for.

Look for the "Visual Quick Start to PHP" for the easiest quick start. I found it extremely simple to catch on using that book.

You will probably grow out of it quickly, but it will give you the...

I decided (and this isn't the best of the best solutions, but it will work) to rename each rule with a different rule indicator as the first psuedo directory.

If there are 2 variables it will say...

Hi All, this is killing me and I was wondering if anybody knew how to fix this. What I need to do is mod_rewite URLs to mimich directories for variables. Easy, but what I need is to be able to...

no way! I'm not a gamer. Anyhoo, I only have one stick. I am going to try running AVG to see if I can get it to shut off.

I have this Dell 2gig celeron with 512 ram. Ever since I got it maybe once or twice a month it would juts instantly shuit down if I was heavy into a graphics program. Around 2 weeks ago it just...

A lot of web developers are strongly opinionated that divs should be used for design and tables for tabular data, but I am still not entirely convinced that website designers should jump on it yet. ...

No "secrets" here Christopher. Here is an explaination I posted on highrankings.com about page ranks versus link popularity.




Let do an exercise to see the difference between link pop and...

you should try that experiment on me too. Please post as many links as possible to my site and try to get me banned that way.

If that was the case there would be no reason to get listings in DMOZ and all other directories. The IP block thing is this... if you have 500 backlinks,and 450 of them from the same IP block,...
