  1. I understand that the advertizers pay for a specific number of views.Using an addblock seems unfair to me. Yes I know the world is not fair, but we should at least try not to make it worse. Zero is a very hard amount to accumulate. It might be that W3Schools could get into trouble if it did not respond to the adblock post in some way though perhaps this post is enough. This topic was the first step in building a new road. The responses I got to my first post indicated that I started in a jungle. There is a road which benefits all or perhaps makes it more fun to get there.Where, everywhere!So whats next! Jungle clobbering time!.Need to figure out which direction and how.Back to my day job, different road, different obstacles, same objective.
  2. I went searching , but after five minutes got interrupted by deadline clock. This is about 12 hours later.Next time I do a check I will post some results but its likely to be some time yet. I'm the CTO of a mixed Hardware Software Company and we have a chip to get out.It includes a CPU with a Script Engine accelerator, ("its assembly is Perl").Thats the reason I check the benchmarks.Last time I looked PHP and Perl were about same speed. I switch between based on the app being extended. My web gurus say to use mod_perl for serious work, its much faster than straight Perl as it only loads once. Again we are Linux server based, though we are on Windows/Linux desktop.CPAN and various Linux sites have links to Jobs in Perl, but you are right currently there is more demand for PHP, JAVA and .Net., and Ruby is up and coming, but Perl 6.00 if and when it comes out may change that. No need to wait for that PHP and Perl coexist quite well, and PHP is a good language. good bug hunting.
  3. 1. You have too much talent to need forgiveness. However forgive me if appear to be lecturing. So Server Side We generally host on *nix where perl and PHP works well.Getting Perl to work well on Windows is not easy. On the server its only worth going to C or C++ with heavy compute bound stuff or groupware support. Solving graphs, generating visulizations, iterpolating images though the one I seem to be using most now is compiling from Bison/Yacc generated tools. Have built libraries for both PHP and Perl, Perl apparently has some advantage for now but the Zend team will fix that. Full suites do exist for VisualC, but the only member of my teams who have done well with it was a super Guru.Have used C++ Builder and its Dbase support for serving, C++ binding is quick and easy, but Delphi and Builder were built by the same guy who devised .Net so developing should be equally easy, though .Net is heavier and thus uses more server resources.Client Side Obviously there is no C++ or C on the client side in general web apps.However done many apps where the browser is used as a frontpanel for a local (or LAN local) application. There are many Open Source tiny servers which are very light.2. Benchmarks ASP books will say ASP is faster , Perl books, Perl faster , PHP etc. ASP.net is faster because it compiles. In general they are faster in some cases not in others. Most experienced users get their tools to meet application demands.Internet aps are normally cost driven by communication limits.Itranets aps can be performance bound.Nuff said. Had to refereee too many language wars. Do Not Quote me.Hope this was not much of a time waster.
  4. 1. You are lucky, My uncle could watch 3 T.V.s and still be one of the top accountants in Manchester. I am mesmerized by T.V.. 2. Agreed, this would be extra version of same page. Would go some way to support free, ad. based version.
  5. 30 second reply. My team have used these typically when printing pages with many absolute divs. 1. grab the innerHTML (there's an example to show it going to a button). Example use <div id=p1> to get by id , or get the object the users click (also example) which element clicked Put in a <div> in a new window . user can print that 2. Insert a blank <div > at document start (top:0). Move <div> to print using position:absolute to start. Tell user to print first page.BUT containment issues. Are these for your sites or off the web. ?
  6. Could you provide links to benchmarks. The last time I checked (about 3 months ago), Perl was faster (slightly) than PHP.I find that novice and less technical developers are better(ie faster development) in PHP but Perl experts totally outperform their juniors. When I hire newbies, they start off in PHP in a group with at least 1 Perl expert, after a while they use PHP less than 25% of the time. Obviously when real speed is required we migrate functions to C++ or C.
  7. Paid Higher Productivity Display Basic Idea Have pages without or less ads in return for payment. This is very important to some people as ads distract.Less important but still valuable is the screen space they take up. We are talking in the range of $1 to $5 per year, $0.10-$0.50 per month.Issues 1. This may not be a new topic, I did a quick search but.. . Let me know where to go (politely) if it is an old topic. 2.Must ensure mechanism does not interfere with W3Schools normal operation.3.Small payments are expensive.4.Fraud If this results in anything it should be from a long trail of short posts Finally I am not connected to W3Schools in any way at all, but I respect their capabilities and their trading ethics.
