I want to include an RSS feed from a blog into a web page I'm creating so the text from the blog will show up in the page. Unfortunately, I can't find anyone that can tell me how to do it. Any ideas? Do I have to have an aggregator on my website, and, if so, which should I use and how do I use it.

This problem irks me.

I spent $100 on a new cable modem, the same one I had originally (Before something was spilled into it and it was destroyed...) and I keep having straaange problems. The cable company says it not their fault, and I agree now.

So I have random times where my connection is just LOST. The only way to get it working again, is to unplug the modem.. wait a little bit.. plug it back in again, and all is good. Sometimes it happened 5 times a day... sometimes none.. and sometimes more than 10.

Now after all these months I FINALLY figured out what I was doing at the time of the disconnections. It ALWAYS happens when I am downloading something! Whether it be a torrent, limewire, a website... and update for a program, anything, I get disconnected.

I have no idea what's going on, I think the internet hates me.

Question about income here. Long story short – I work as the sole in house designer for a corporation in Gainesville florida. When I was hired I was solely the web master and I built 2 websites plus redesigned the intranet. Once that was finished I branched out and began doing all the design both web wise and print wise which saves the company a lot of money. I play creative director, project manager and designer all rolled up into one person and I am incredibly busy most of the time. When I first started I was seated with the IT dept. It was a stifling environment for me plus most of the people I do work for are NOT in IT. The head of IT is your typical passive aggressive control freak and not a good manager plus he dislikes me. In short – I was told I’m being moved to the department where I should have been in the first place which is a good thing – but my annual review was one of the worst in my career and he made me feel as if the decision was not in my favor. He changed my managers excellent scores for me from 4’s to 2’s and made comments on the review that were off the mark and unwarranted. I was supposed to get a raise that would take me from 34K a year to 40K a year and because of his dislike for me he gave a 1300 dollar a year raise instead. Not horrible, but not what someone who has been doing the work of 3 people with no one directly managing my time should get. He didn’t want me to move – my new boss specifically asked for me to be moved and everyone there sees the work I do which, not to sound like a snob, is excellent and always on time.

I want to appeal and ask for what I’m worth and for what I’ve worked hard for. I’ve never in my professional career had a review like this and so I’ve never had to appeal for a raise before. What should I do? How should I go about this? My research shows that 40K is exactly what I should be making as a base income with Sr. graphic designer and web master salaries combined and averaged.

Help!!! I’m really angry about this and I don’t think my new boss knows that
I was low balled.

Hi all. It's been a while since I last posted. I'm trying something new out and am having a bit of trouble getting it to work in IE. I know it WILL work because the inspiration came from another website. If you look at test.aacapartsandsupplies.com, the menu with the hover images is what I want to use. I am using an unordered list with the span tag, where each list item has a different image.

#header ul {padding: 70px 0px 0 0;

background-position: left top;
overflow: hidden;}

#header ul li a:hover {background-position: left bottom;}

#header ul li a span {display: block;
height: 1px;
width: 1px;
overflow: hidden;}

#home a {background-image: url('images/nav_images/home.png');

I can't connect to any websites on my backup desktop anymore. It seems to have suddenly stopped, and I'm not sure why. It worked a few hours ago.. and now, nothing.

I think it has to do with some windows updates that I ran on it, because after they installed is when I had the problem. Afterwards, I can no longer connect to anything. I tried firefox and IE, and I tried to ping google.com but got nothing.

There are no device conflicts with the netcard.

I tried to uninstall the windows updates and my desktop started to look a bit funky.. I may have uninstalled the wrong ones. :) The desktop icons were all pink and weird looking.. I tried to backup to yesterday's system restore, but that didn't get me back on the net.

After an hour or so of messing with system restore and testing the LAN cable on my laptop (it connected fine).. I figured.. what the hell, I don't have anything on this computer anyways.. and reinstalled windows and downloaded the latest drivers for the net card (which I had to do from my laptop and transfer them via flash drive).

That didn't work either.

I've tried running the LAN cable straight from the modem to the computer rather than through the router, and that didn't work.

I shut off the computer / router / cable modem, and turned them back on in reverse order.. nothing.

I don't understand why reinstalling windows didn't work if it truely was the windows update that did it. But if it wasn't the update, what was it? I've tried three different known working LAN cables, so it's not the cable.. and I bypassed the router, so I don't see how it could be the router. And I'm sending this message via my laptop on the same network, so it shouldn't be the cable modem's fault. If it's the NIC, then the updated drivers should have done something.. or it should be giving me some sort of conflict.

Under the network connections/local area connection status it says connected. When I click repair it says: "The following steps of the repair operation failed: renewing the IP address."

So.. any ideas? :)

Greetings to all,


Hello! I'm new to the WebDev community and was looking for a place to share my thoughts about web development. I'm into HTML and currently learning PHP and MySql. I can edit just about anything though :) (JavaScript, CSS whatever). I would like to make a web based game in PHP perhaps using a flash GUI. But not sure yet. Anyway thats about it just thought I'd introduce myself :)

Here's the deal.
My computer won't download Flash 9.0
It just won't.

I went to troubleshooting on the Adobe website. Went up to internet options making sure nothing was blocked. I downloaded the uninstaller, then re-installed it. I've rebooted many many times.

The same thing happened with the previous version of Flash. About 3 or 4 months after that one finally started working (only God knows why) the whole world decides that this Flash isn't good enough. It just has to be 9.0 now.

So please please PLEASE. I am dying. Is there anything else I need to do? Is my computer just screwed up? Am I overlooking something incredibly simple?

PLEASE HELP!


I was going to use Choppingblock.com but right now they are all crazy not doing technical work but only design. Frankly, I'm pissed they created a contract for me doing everything and now they will have to outsource, or better yet give me some contacts.

I want a company that from start to finish will help with a major website.

I need a company located in NYC that has create design, a great resume and can do techincal, help promote and basically build/structure/deliver everything from A-Z

I have an idea, one to make money and I want someone to make it come to life.

What company in the city is good for a revenue happy website that needs videos, uploading, sign in, memberships, etc? Like a company that could do a youtube or a myspace.

please help me! help me! will somebody help me! (Little Richard voice)
