  1. This is true. I started in PERL, then learned ASP, then JSP, then ASP.NET. I do prefer .Net over anyother language I have used.I would recommend Asp.Net as a goal. It is more Object Oriented than other scripting languages but far more powerful. If the though of .Net intimidates you, look into it at least, then go with ASP. ASP isn't too hard to migrate to .Net later.If you like more open source stuff or are a linux person you can't use ASP or .Net as they are windows products only. In that case the only option I would consider is PHP...It has plenty of resources and support out ther and it integrates with MySql well.If you have anymore questions just ask.

    Transparent Filter

    I am not sure what you are asking...do you have an example page???Are the 2 different colors overlapping?
  3. I am pretty sure that this can't be changed.It is just a default thing we have to live with.
  4. Learn a server side language like ASP or PHP and get to know a database like MySql. You will need these tchnologies to do what you are asking.It is not difficult. You would need somesort of comment and voting input forms and then to display the comments oyu are just retreiving data from the database.

    Ruby on Rails

    I am not a C++ programmer, and for good reason. I began learning C and conclude...although it may be a great and powerful language, it is very hard to understand, to me anyways.So saying that and concidering te comment that it looks a lot like C++, how can RoR claim that it is easier to write and understand, C++ is tough!And if it is just a beefed up C++, we can write our own code libraries and our on deposit() functions!

    Hi Chuck,I looked at the site. Everything sounds nice but what does it do? What is it like? They fail to give MEANINGFUL examples of there code. Blocks and blocks of storytelling like code does not help me understand what the heck they are doing.story.moveup??? what does that do?dave.deposit(100). So you created some system methods...any language can do that...it is called a library! You write methods that can be used in a variety of apps to do reoccuring tasks.I fail to see the value of this language. there is already too many languages out there...why do we need a new one?IMO if you peopl ewant to contribute tot he web and make things easier for developers, pick a popular language and start creating controls and methods for that language. Don't make up a whole new framework...do you honestly think you can 'kill' java, php, .net ot any other mainstream language???So you have 60,000 downloads...yeah....asp.net has like 60 million.If you intend to win me over...give me some cold, hard proof that you are better not a bunch of colorful, pretty slide shows full of propaganda and blog clippings!Sorry for the rant...it is not pointed at anyone in particular.
  7. no problem!they can replace MS for all i care
  8. Tables are a perfectly standards compliant way of creating layouts.True usinf div and CSS makes less code and is easier to read but is a pain to make consistent with all browsers. There are so many quirks and bugs with floating divs and stretching 100% of viewport.Tables validate just fine under any version of HTML and XHTML and are much easier to acheive the layout you want with more consistency.Whether you use tables or not is a personal preference and makes no difference in the way the webpage renders.I am not sure if you have nothing better to do than to try and stir up trouble and insult someone who has volunteered his time and knowledge, and MONEY to create great tutorials and help people learn technologies...but maybe you need to find a hobby or something. Grow Up!!!

    smallll query

    The url you used in your post is a subdomain.internet.com is the main domain and javascript is the sub.When you register a domain (www.mydomain.com) you auto matically get http://mydomain.com as well. You just have to set it up on the dns server.http://www.aspnetguy.com and http://aspnetguy.com will take you to the same place.There is no difference whether you add the www or not.
  10. why are you using modeless windows??? what is hte benefit. Just open a regualr window and you have complete control with javascript
  11. pat yourself on the back! you deserve it!

    border order

    have the right border display on top of top and bottom border?? not sure what you are saying but to have different parts of your border different colors is easy. border: 1px solid #000000;border-right: 1px solid #0000FF;
  13. Sorry, I misunderstood.I don' know of any ther way to traverse the recordset.
  14. I have launched my technology blog.http://www.aspnetguy.comI would love to get feedback on the look of the site. Also I would love to have some faithful readers. You can sign up and post topic suggestions on my message board as well as discuss the articles there as well.Hope to here your feedback.
  15. It is a bug in visual studio...you have done nothing wrong.If you use (") inside <%= %> you get this error. Try changing (") to (') if you can.you may have to resort to commenting out that bit of code each time you need to switch to design view.I know it is annoying but it is fixed in VS.Net 2005.
  16. try clearing your browsers cache and hitting refresh a couple of times.If this doesn't work, stop and then restart IIS. This should clear things out.Also you may want to check and see that www.mydomain.com and mydomain.com are setup.click on the 'web site' tab in IIS. are both of the domain variations listed? If not this could cause that problem.
  17. no it is not possible to run sql statements on Application variables.Is this how you are authenticating users to login to your site???If so you should use Session("user"), Session("password")...etc.Sessions are on a user by user basis and will expire when the browser is closed.An Application variable will not expire until the application is stopped via IIS. That means even when someone closes the browser, their credentials stay in the App variable and it keeps growing consuming more and more memoery until your app hangs.
  18. to change border to black but keep divders white do this. #tblodds th { background-color: #000000; color: #ffffff; border:1px solid #000000; padding: 0 .5em 0 .5em; text-align: center; } then change your <th>'s a bit <tr> <th style="border-right:1px solid #ffffff">Probability of cards hitting the flop</th> <th style="border-right:1px solid #ffffff">Odds</th> <th>%</th> </tr>
  19.

I removed the media type from xhtml 1.1 with no difference made. XHTML 1.0 strict had same troubles. What media type should be used with XHTML 1.0, and 1.1??? Would that have solved the problems and still be able to use XHTML 1.1???

    Div Height

    I am not sure of a method that can acheive what you want... you could just set a static height of 600 or 768...they are pretty standard resolutions. Others would just have to scroll.Not such a good solution i know...I would be interested to see if this can be done.I'll take a look at the code later and let you know what I come up with.
  21. plus it saves confusion and leaving hte .html is unnecessary
  22. Cold Fusion is a Server Side language like PHP, you still need the other stuff.If the flash you are creating needs to get data from the database that is a whole other matter but if you are doing PHP > database transactions it isn't as hard as it sounds.What part don't you understand???I can't write you any examples as I don't use PHP, I assume this is what you plan to use, I am sure there are others who could give an example though.
  23. If you have control over the server and are using IIS it is easy.Open IIS and click the Documents tab. There is a list of all default docuements. If index.php is not there add it, then make sure you move it up in the list so it is above index.html.I am a windows man so I can't help outside of that.If you are using a hosting company that supports PHP it should be in the list already, although if it still goes to the index.html first, just change index.html to index2.html so it will use the next default page int he list.

    Div Height

    In theory it is possible but I have yet to see it properly and consistantly done.There are several quirks with floated divs and trying to get them to use 1005 of available space.IMO you should 'fake' it. I mean use a background image to giv ethe appeaence of a fully stretched div.read this article for an example.http://codebetter.blogspot.com/2005/09/css...ss-layouts.html
