What is the toll of a function call? Is looping 200,000 times calling a function that performs a small calculation each time a lot more resource intensive than just performing that small calculation inline?

I like the idea of receiving a return on what I keep in my PayPal balance, but how safe is doing this? Is it safe to keep a lot of money in my PayPal account (which I have had hooked up to two credit cards and two bank accounts for …

#2 and #3 on your list should go into the Windows tips 'n' tweaks forum. It needs a little cleaning out right now, but that forum is meant for things of this nature and NOT for support questions. [URL]http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/forum37.html[/URL]

Even though you may think their site is designed poorly, they might have really spent a very long time on it with their limited computer skills and be very proud of it. (After all, it's most likely their first webpage.) They may see you as being presumptuous for thinking their …

Know of some printing problems with Jaguar but Panther was supposed to correct that. Your thread title says cannot print FROM safari but in your post you state cannot print from OUTSIDE safari? If you go to Applications/Utilities/Print Center does the document show up in the print queue?

If you're going to spend weeks or months working on a project for a company, why not take the extra five minutes to draw up something simple? What would be the reason not to?

Domain age, content, relevancy of backlinks, etc. are all factors that contribute to how well a site ranks in the engines. Google toolbar pagerank is a direct demonstration of backlink count, discounting all other factors.

Hello folks, When I redesigned the site, I admit I also did make changes to user titles. I made it so that it is required to have more posts to get to the next stage ... I figured that since we're growing, and more and more people have higher posts, …

How coincidental that we just learned tunneling in my Unix networking course last night. In any case, I think this can be done a simpler way as well. I remember a few years back a friend and I were both on the same cable modem connection, and we were able …

As you guys know, the rounded corners script was disabled because it was causing some problems with web browsers hanging and such. I have reimplemented a DIFFERENT rounded corners script and am interested to hear if it causes similar problems. I only need feedback for Internet Explorer 6 and 7 …

Attachments are stored in the database in the BLOB (binary string) format. Therefore, when fetched from the database, it's necessary for DaniWeb's script to pass back the appropriate mime type based on the file extension. If the attachment has a .gif extension, for example, I am going to pass 'Content-type: …

Keep in mind that most popup blockers will only blog new browser windows from opening - they won't stop DHTML advertisements such as fly-ins, etc. that may appear to be popups but really aren't.

Working on it. In the meantime, you can visit the Geek's Lounge, and then in the dropdown menu select "search in this forum" to achieve the same result.

I'm not sure what you typed to get the "leak". I think it must've parsed itself or something.

DaniWeb's control panel has just as many ads as the rest of the pages, except for Google AdSense text links of course, which I'm sure aren't the problem.

What do you mean that the task manager says the AD is using 100% CPU time? It wouldn't be able to break it down like this? ... it would say IE or FireFox is using CPU time, no?

It's very possible that it's a real person who is creating the accounts, and then letting the bots loose posting with them. You should definitely enable email confirmation so members need to verify their emails before they can post. You can periodically prune emails waiting for verification to keep your …

I believe it depends upon the printing method that will be used. IE a large printing press for full color magazines might be different than what's required for two-tone business cards. I would ask your printer what works best for them.

Are you referring to the things like 'Posting Whiz in Training' and 'Practically a Posting Shark'? These titles have nothing at all to do with reputation and they don't fly over anything, either. They are simply a member's user title which is set exclusively based on how many posts they …
