 | Re: why are we here Never heard that one before. Linux is a derivative of Unix written by Linus Torvalds, hence Linux. But, yes, please do tell how the site is configured poorly.  |
| | [QUOTE=techniner]What hosting provider is this if you don't mind me asking?[/QUOTE] No site specific talk is permitted in this particular forum. Please ask questions like this via PM. Thanks!  |
 | During peak times, the server load average goes crazy high, and PHP has intermittent problems connecting to MySQL. Right now, both PHP and MySQL are on the same server, and adding a second database server is something for the near future but not a possibility at this moment. Would adding … |

| | Upload an icon file into your root directory and name it favicon.ico :) |
| | Search engines have generally taken up a policy of not penalizing you for what another site you have no control over does. If it becomes overly apparent that lots of link farms are linking to you, then in more cases than not you are somehow behind it, so that's not … |
 | Create lots of ad groups each targeting a particular section of your site. Create very targeted ads for each group and repeat the keywords within the ads. When the keywords being searched for are in an ad, the word appears in bold, and that's a very good thing :) Draws … |
| | Make sure it's required to confirm email address upon registration. Many trolls don't like to register on forums where they know it's possible for their ISP to be contacted if they are bad. Also, it's very helpful to have a good team of moderators from around the world (ie different … |
| | Why don't you start a thread in our IT Job Offers forum? [url="http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/forum95.html"]http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/forum95.html[/url] Be sure to give details such as what you would like. Lots of vB users on DaniWeb! |

 | Re: Google Mars This has been around for a really long time. Hasn't it? As long as Google Earth I believe. |
| | I'm looking for a good vnc client. I had some problems with RealVNC (mostly unexpectedly and randomly losing its connection), and am now looking into TightVNC. Does anyone have any personal preferences?  |
| | How do you get rid of all those one post wonders? They come, post once, and leave. Or, better yet, they register and just don't post at all? I have already customized the welcome email sent out to new members. I am thinking about sending new members a PM upon … |
| | What types of advertising does everyone run on their forum? How many ads is too many? Do you just stick with AdSense and YPN or do you do graphical campaigns? Anyone with IntelliTXT? What is user response like? What is considered going too far? Most importantly, at what point do … |
| | This is just a built-in bug with the vBulletin software which powers DaniWeb. The problem is eliminated when you use [php] or [html] tags as opposed to [code] tags. The full standard and WYSIWYG editors (which appear everywhere except for the quick reply box) contain a button to quickly insert … |
| | Sometimes this happens when you download a toolbar (such as the Google toolbar) and it spreads itself out shrinking the Address bar until it becomes nearly invisible. If JemB's method didn't work, click the View menu and then Toolbars and make sure that Lock the Toolbar is UNTICKED. There should … |
| | Re: Hi! Hi! Welcome to DaniWeb ... When asking for help with your homework, be sure to show effort, and what you've accomplished so far. :) Good luck! |
| | Why not do something like madlibs? Configure about 10 or 20 unique variables describing each page. Then, write a paragraph which contains those variables, effectively giving you 400,000 unique paragraphs. For example: page 1: $title = "Yorkshire Terrier" $price = "$800" $weight = 6 page 2: $title = "Maltese Spaniel" … |
 | DaniWeb moderators ban a member about once or twice a month for a variety of reasons. In most cases, it is because the member spammed his or her website more than once or twice, (reasonably common since we have such a large webmaster audience). If you read a bunch of … |

| | I just installed the latest version of the Google toolbar for IE. The autocomplete search feature is pretty cool. Any other opinions? |
 | Definitely go fixed width for content sites with lots of text. I also like fixed width because I feel I have more control over the design when I know it will render the same to all visitors ... not stretched out in the wrong places to some and squished in … |

| | I've always heard all these great success stories about YPN and how the revenue potential is more than double AdSense. The concensus has been that you get fewer clicks but the CPC and eCPM is much higher in the end. However, after trying it out for myself, I'm horribly disappointed. … |
| | Did anyone else have a great AdSense day today? CTR is average but CPM doubled! Woo hoo! It's a little after 5 pm and already I'm close to what I would expect to be near the end of the day. |
| | Re: Intro Hi. Welcome :) May I ask what MIS stands for? I would assume the IS is Information Systems but then what is the M? |
 | That's awesome :) Did you know you would be or was it a complete surprise? How did it come up? DaniWeb was once mentioned on The Tech Guy with Leo Laporte but that's the closest I recall us being in the media. |
| | We have a forum entitled "Advertising Sales and Affiliate Programs" where people are meant to discuss the pros and cons of selling ad space, how to go about doing so, review various affiliate programs and agencies, etc. However, many people mistake this as a forum to post that they are … |

| | I can use my Apache server logs to figure out how many pulls there were of my RSS feed each day ... and therefore can track usage trends. But this just isn't enough for me. Is there ANY way that I can figure out whether my feeds are being pulled …  |
| | We use the / operator to signify integer division. Basically what it means is to throw away the remainder. Therefore, 6 / 3 = 2 but 7 / 3 = 2 as well. Modular division is remainder division and its operator is the percent sign. It means to throw away … |

| | Sounds great! Welcome to DaniWeb :) Hope to see you around here. |
| | |
| | Tools menu ... click Internet Options ... on the General tab ... click the button for Clear History. I think that should do it. Otherwise, the Content tab ... then the AutoComplete button ... something there perhaps? |
| | You can do a reinstall on your Office XP installation (via your Office XP disk), just reinstalling the Outlook part. |
| | Re: Locking up I'm going to take a shot in the dark and say it's either the video card [drivers] or the ram. Those seem to be the most likely culpreits for frequent unexplained lockups.  |
| | Let us know what it is? Post in the Website Reviews forum. Post in the IT Job Offers forum? I'm not sure without more information. :)  |
| | Re: Qb to VB.NET Hmm. Patience is a virtue. I would help but I don't know VB.NET for anything. What I do know about it though is it's all object oriented. What if you just replace those LPRINTS with printing to some textbox object? I really don't have the slightest clue. Sorry. |

| | Does anyone have any contest ideas that would help to strengthen a community but are not very time consuming to oversee / maintain and will work well with a big board? I don't want it to be where members submit entrees because then I would have to manually examine every … |

| | That's quite a resume you've got there! DaniWeb is honored to have you on board. Congratulations to the mommy-to-be! :) |
| | Re: Help with a form You should be able to assign a name to any html element as far as I know. For example, I would name an object for the sole purpose of being able to attach some JavaScript event to it. |

| | Did a forum upgrade today ... mostly bug fixes, but I had to reupload many files. Please let me know if you spot any bugs or things not working as they should. Thanks!  |
The End.
