 | Recently read somewhere that some sites are starting to see Lycos.com (yes, the one that fell off the face of the earth a decade ago) pop up as a main referer for them according to G Analytics. I'm not seeing ANY traffic at all from them, but was wondering if …  |

| | Am I just clueless, or where can I find the coordinates of the cursor in the latest version of Photoshop or Illustrator when I have View Rulers turned on? |

| | Re: Payment Gateway. Try WorldPay or even PayPal. Most payment gateways would need to accept both Visa and Mastercard, as they are both heavily used. |
 | |
| | Click on Edit Profile (at the top of the page) and then scroll to the bottom. You will want to check 'Receive Email from DaniWeb' and also 'Automatically Watch Articles I Post In'. You can click the link to Watched Articles, also at the top of the page, to see … |
 | Do you have anything in your CSS saying `position:absolute` or `position:fixed` ?? |
 | What file extension are you trying to upload? |
 | The code you are showing looks fine. Where's the part in the Wordpress template that lets you set the `<title>`? |
| | > What is the major/minor differences between a signed, and unsigned number? When do I need to worry about this? If the variable will need to hold both positive and negative numbers, you will want it to be signed. Otherwise, it can be unsigned as you won't need to store … |
 | Our servers are hosted in Dallas, TX at a datacenter owned by a Houston-based company. I used to live on Long Island and DaniWeb's office was on Long Island. I've since moved into an apartment in Queens, NY that is literally 300 ft west of the Long Island border, and, … |
| | Hi Jonathan, Welcome to DaniWeb! I'm sure that Davey (aka happygeek) will be happy to know that :) |
| | Is only your computer affected? If I remember correctly, Internet Explorer has a setting where you can choose to overwrite a website's CSS file with your own stylesheet. Other reasons might be an old version of the CSS file is cached. Try clearing your temporary internet files.  |
 | For some reason, your user ID wasn't added to the list of posters in that thread. You can even see that the OP says 3 contributors to the thread when in reality there should be 4. I'm not sure if this is a one-time bug or something else. Either James … |
 | Re: MS Office Help Because you can post in the Microsoft Windows forum and then just tag your thread with ms-office. |
 | You can do what we do, which is serve our PHP documents from our Apache server. We then have a separate web server set up called LightHTTPd, which has the potential to be faster than Apache, which we use to serve up our static content. We ensure to not compile … |
| | From what I understand, you only need to follow federal laws based on the country your site is based off of / where your servers are hosted. For example, DaniWeb is a global community, which means we get traffic from some communist countries such as China and we even get … |
 | Re: Standalone EXE From what I understand, that's the virtual machine that is used to interpreset VB, and comes standard with most versions of Windows. There may be third party tools that can bundle everything together, but not that I know of.  |
| | What is the difference between: isset($foo['bar']) array_key_exists('bar', $foo) Is there a performance difference? Is one way more correct than the other?  |
 | Yeah, unfortunately it went away when we switched to the new system. The spellchecker that you are referring to was a functionality of your browser, not of DaniWeb at all. Most current web browsers have built-in functionality that uses their own dictionary to spellcheck text typed into textboxes. The problem … |
 | Formatting fixed. |
| | What does the PHP error message `Uninitialized string offset: 0` mean?  |
| | |
| | |
 | You want a lot of visitors? Don't we all :) Doesn't happen without a lot of hard work I'm afraid.  |
| | |
| | I understand that the HTML 5 spellcheck attribute works on any input, textareas, and editable divs. I want to get spellcheck to work with our wysiwyg editor, which uses a non-editable div with a hidden input field (for backwards compatability). Is there any trick to get the spellcheck attribute to … |

 | It just changed a few hours ago. I added the ability to start a discussion thread right from the homepage. What do you think? |
 | Wow, you learn something new every day. I didn't know about force_download(). I was manually setting http headers and such for post attachments on DaniWeb that can't be viewed through a browser (Word documents, etc.) |
| | Can anyone point me to a sample use case of a very lightweight PHP-based example of a Google Analytics API pull?? I'm looking for two things: * Registering a pageview * Fetching pageviews per day/week/month/all for a particular page Thanks!  |
 | Re: Penguin 2.0 Alas, I read the news yesterday but didn't post here like I should have. Thanks for doing it! I checked yesterday and didn't notice any difference. Was really hoping that Penguin losers would push us higher up the food chain and help out our Panda situation (currently hit hard). |
| | As the title suggests, what do you think about noindexing forum threads with no replies?? We do it here once we got hit by Panda the first time around, but then we recovered, and now we're hit again, and I'm wondering if it's a good idea to remove it. We … |
| | I was wondering if anyone had any experience with Cloudflare and what you thought of it? A *LOT* of big sites are using it, and from what I'm hearing, it's really good at caching entire webpages at the DNS server end without ever having to hit your web servers. However, … |
| | I was wondering if anyone out there had any opinions (strong or otherwise) about Discourse (http://www.discourse.org), the new Javascript-based discussion system built using Ruby by the guy behind StackOverflow. It's meant to revolutionize forum systems. Do you think it does?? It's a nice JS-based skin, I'll give it that, but … |
 | Re: Database I'm sorry, I really have no clue what you're trying to ask. I assume English is not your first language?? Databases are used to store large amounts of information. They can power a website, a desktop application, etc. Multiple languages can tap into the same type of database. For example, … |
| | Sometimes you can tell because URI extension is something like .php but other times (i.e. in the case of DaniWeb) you can't tell that we're PHP based. As Jorge says, the web servers translate the PHP into HTML files which is what gets sent to your web browser. |
 | You're right in that cloud computing is storing data on someone else's server. While technically it might be a similar concept to having an external hdd, in practice it is very different. I also just want to point out that you are incorrect in that it's only for data storage … |
 | We haven't allowed rep in the Community Center for a very long time, as AD pointed out. While some people don't get too caught up on rep points, other people choose to take them more seriously, and I think it wouldn't be fair to those long time members to suddenly … |

| | I don't necessarily see it as a bad thing because it's just one of the things that is "encouraged" with the promotion of our API. Funnily enough, it actually both makes their site more established and *also* establishes us as a content provider in Google's eyes, so it's a win-win … |

 | In NYC it's called taking public transportation. I've never heard of "public transport". Transport is a verb, as in to transport something. |
| | Ewwies! What do you mean by continuous refresh mode?? I have the site open in IE 8 on Windows 7 and everything is fine. Are you in compatability mode or IE 8 standard? Also, can you try disabling ads from your member profile and let me know if it still … |
| | Anyone around here own a tech publication and use NetShelter. They just announced earlier this week that they were sold to Ziff Davis. They're a big player in the industry so just wondering if it impacts anyone out there in Internet land? |
 | Re: yahoo news Thank you for the news .... Never used tumblr myself though. Wonder what this will mean. |
 | Re: Erk Glad you're feeling better. It seems like it really was the only time in existance that I can recall a 24 hour bug truly being only one single day. Head and neck tattoos don't sound fun though, but who am I to say? :) |
The End.
