Firstly, different people have different strengths and weaknesses. You want to put each person in a position in which they will thrive … |
| | I have coded and maintained DaniWeb by myself for twenty years. I have always tried to write code that adheres closely to standards. I try to make my code easy to read, and document it well enough that, should I need to change something, I can easily figure out why … |

| | I, personally, use Bootstrap.  |
| | I wholeheartedly agree with cored0mp when it comes to library support. As a PHP’er, it’s been a lifesaver for me knowing that anything I might need, and any popular API I might want to use, can find documentation and extensive support on. At least for everything I’ve tried to do … |
 | I would begin with a Google Search Console account and multiple sitemap files, with each sitemap file listing all of the URLs in different sections of your website.

However, I noticed that Google Chrome DevTools console is giving me the following warning: > Listener added for a synchronous 'DOMNodeRemoved' DOM Mutation Event. This event type is deprecated (https://w3c.github.io/uievents/#legacy-event-types) and work is underway to remove it from this browser. … |
| | If you hadn't said anything, I would have assumed an ice-free driveway meant one of those heated driveways that melts the ice and snow so you don't have to shovel your car out. But that's the New Yorker in me! |
| | > Is there a better way to python-encode data that's consistently reversible using mysql for processing? I suppose the first question I would ask is *why* does the data need to be encoded in MySQL? What is the objective for it to be encoded? I suspect it's not security, since … |
| | I say 2024 is going to be the year of even more AI. Happy new year!! |
 | > A new Daniweb home/top page. Link me to content you wish was on the homepage for you but isn't. I guess I'm just of the belief the reason there isn't a lot of quality content presented on the homepage is because there just isn't a lot of quality content … |
| | > What is a good way to make sure all the pages are in Google? Create a sitemap XML file that lists all of the pages you want indexed in Google. Use noindex meta tags for thin content (navigational pages, login pages, etc.) that wouldn't be a great experience for …  |
| | My guess would be Instagram. |
| | I can look into this tomorrow if you still need help. Sorry, I’ve been feeling sickly yesterday and today.  |
| | For the past ten years or so, I've had a lot of pain in my fingers, hands, and arms, and I've just chalked it up to carpel tunnel, or sitting at the computer too long, etc. I tend to browse with my hand firmly planted over my mouse, until I … |
| | Re: Cloud based HRMS It looks like your platform, which I assume you work for the company, is just for India. The OP lives in the US. Since you’re in the industry, can you make any recommendations for US-based payroll software? Back when I had employees, I just used Paychex. Not sure if they … |

| | Sorry, I don’t understand your question. SEO is used to increase your organic ranking in Google and other search engines. |
 | Your .htaccess file would look something like: RewriteEngine On RewriteRule ^([a-z]+)-([a-z]+)-([a-z]+)$ news.php?slug=$1-$2-$3 [L] This is untested, but it should work. |
| | I don't understand what Alicia means by unique characters? What makes those characters unique? Are they reserved?  |
| | It has to do with the scope of a javascript variable. It means that the variable is hoisted (aka “lifted up”) to the top of the code block it’s in. This has nothing to do with web hosting, and is only relevant if you are a javascript developer.  |
| | Use a CDN to load your images and fonts. I recommend Cloudflare, which has a free version, but you can also use Fastly or one of the other popular options out there. Also, limit the amount of heavy Javascript you're using.  |
| | # Reducing page load time: * Use a CDN such as Cloudflare or Fastly to serve your static images, javascript files, CSS files, etc. * Make sure that your web server is as fast as it can be; If using PHP, use Opcache, etc. # Minimizing render-blocking resources * Put … |

 | The only name I recognize in your post is Kermit the Frog. It’s not easy being green. |
| | While I concur that Figma is incredibly popular in the UI world, I fail to see the point of your post. |
| | An oldie but a goodie: Start a blog on your website with wacky and interesting news and fun facts that are relevant to your product or service. Promote those articles on Facebook in order to get FB likes and shares. |
| | The best way to prevent SQL injection attacks is to make sure that *all* strings passed into SQL queries, especially if they are derived from user-generated input, are properly escaped.
