  • JavaScript Image Rotation Issues

    Date: 12/16/05 (WebDesign)    Keywords: web, seo

    I've been using a bit of script that loads a random image, URL and text into a page each time the page is loaded.

    This seems to work fine for up to 15 images/arrays, but over that, it starts to complain that:
    "Error: 'image.href' is null or not an object"

    Here's the code:

    The script is loaded from the head as an external .js file and called in the body as this:


    Any ideas why it starts failing after 15 arrays? I've tried 'easier' URLs and different images to no avail.

    I've also tried a different script within the body since, but this one rotates the images all the time and too quickly. Any ideas on how to slow it down so that the images are changed say every 20 seconds (20000 milliseconds)? I've tried some setTimeouts in various places but can't seem to slow it down. Code:

    1. How do I get my webpage to look the same on all resolutions?

      Date: 12/10/05 (HTML Help)    Keywords: css, html, web

      Newbie here. *waves*

      So, I've reached absolute last nerve with this. I don't know much about HTML/CSS but I tried to start up a website (HERE. Please ignore my comments. XD) not too long ago. I have a 800x600 resolution and am tryin' to use div layers. I'm tryna make my my website "expand" (like the header an' stuff) for people with larger resolutions. I read somewhere that you set that height an' width to 100%, so that it takes up that amount regardless of the resoulution..but I think that's if you use tables instead of div layers. T__T
      Does anyone know the correct way to do this? Cause I know there's a way..I jus' can't find it. ;_____;


      Any help would be appreciated, seein' as I have a massive lack of skills. T__T

If you could help me figure out where the sent mail folder would be that would be great. The FAQ is just confusing me and I have no idea what the global inbox or whatever is.

    4. Documentation site question/request for suggestions

      Date: 12/11/05 (Web Development)    Keywords: cms, php, web

      Hi, I would like to request for suggestions regarding any open-source PHP apps that can be used for this, er, problem of mine. You see, I'm part of this development project that's handled online, and we need to have some form of documentation up (functional and technical specifications, and hopefully later on, help files). We're around a half-dozen in number, and I would really prefer to use something like PhpWiki which would allow any of us to add to the document and have it be reflected dynamically.

      However, there are a few things that I'm trying to look out for as well. The documentation will be released to a larger group later on, however, there are some things that they should not be able to view -- essentially, a number of restricted pages containing restricted information. I understand that with wiki sites you can lock page editing to be just editable by registered users, but is it possible to also designate restricted pages? What about user levels?

      On a more technical note as well, how difficult would it be to set up a wiki site? How big will the load be on the server? Since the documentation isnt THE project... it would be a waste of resources and effort if we implemented something too... "expensive".

      So in a way, I'm really hoping for some suggestions as to what script/system to implement. Mind, it doesn't have to be a wiki site, really -- just as long as we can easily update information on the spot and restrict some pages. I understand that a plain CMS could also do this -- are there any lightweight ones that you could recommend that would fulfill these needs? The "site" is information-heavy and would need to be easily cross-referenced, hence I was thinking more of a wiki site than a plain CMS-run site.

      Thanks so much in advance. :)

    5. calling all Gallery or PHP experts

      Date: 12/11/05 (WebDesign)    Keywords: templates, web

      so, i've been working on building a photo gallery into my website. i was suggested by people in this community to use Gallery and so far it's working out pretty good. The only problem is there are some adjustments i want to make that i don't know how to. I've checked the forum and the FAQ etc which helped for some things but not for others.

      so what i'm asking for is if there is somebody who knows a lot about the program or customizing templates that i could work with on this project. i would appreciate a little help with some specific things.

      i can pay you back with webspace or an email address on the site or something like that. I also knit, sew, and cook (if you live in the boston area, haha).

      thanks again!

      Ok, why is this happening?

      Not an expert here, and I know IE is the root of all HTML evil, but I don’t get it.
      All images on my site have a code to be 50x50 pixels, unless they’re of a specific class. ( I use CSS to get this done)

      Fire fox recognizes this, and is fine, displaying my pictures properly.
      IE is a douch and only will size the special pics after a few refreshes.

      Arou?

      Is there something in there that I have to put for the evil IE so that it will display properly the first frappin’ time or am I doomed to preface my site with a “Optimal goodness in any browser other than IE” statement?

    8. Suckered

      Date: 12/13/05 (WebDesign)    Keywords: software, web


      Truly it's been an uninspiring December. I received from my recruiter a web design assignment that turned out to be worse than expected.

      I arrived onsite to find that they did NOT have any of the software of connections that they told the recruiter they did have. I, like a sap, said that I had all that was needed at my house and could finish the job from home. Big Mistake! I told the person in charge that I could get the work done in 4 to 6 hours. Which I did on a Sunday from my house.

      Well, Monday came and with it were several revisions from the company and pdf's showing how they wanted the pages laid out. Along with that I had to wait until Tuesday to actually put the pages online as they had to call 3 people to get the right IP address, username and password.

      I get all the work done. (What was supposed to be 3 pages and some edits turns out to be 13 pages and LOTS of edits) And I then submitted my time card to my employers to sign. Sunday + part of Monday + Tuesday =20 hours. Yep, 4 to 6 hours to get the original work done and the rest of the work week to totally obliterate what I made and make it conform to their pdf's.

      Now for the cherry, on the sundae. They tell the recruiting agency that they don't understand why they have to pay for the additional time on Monday and Tuesday. So, the recruiter call me and I write out a complete list of everything that I did, including the additional pages and all the time I spent reworking what I'd finished on Sunday.

      I'll never volunteer my resourses like that again for the a placement job. If they don't have the stuff I need to complete the work on site, then tough tittie. I'll call the recruiter and get the hell out of there.

      That and the fact that I'm unemployed for the holidays makes for the grouchy '[info]'_stag

      Date: 12/13/05 (Computer Help)    Keywords: security, web, yahoo

      ok, i went back through all of the old entries a few months back, and didn't see this particular question posted. if this is a repeat question, i apologize... here is my issue:

      i cannot access any of my e-mail accounts (yahoo, hotmail, or gmail) on my computer. i have a cable modem, and so my computer is on-line 24/7. i can access Livejournal, and various other sites just fine, but there are some sites (including the e-mail servers) that i can't seem to access. when i go into, for example, Yahoo e-mail, i type my username and password, hit "enter" and i just keep getting "the page cannot be displayed." i have tried everything that others have suggested (i am not so good at this stuff on my own):

      1) reseting the computer

      2) adjusting the security settings (in the "internet options" selection under "tools"

      3) clearing the cache

      4) going into the "advanced" tab in "internet options" under "tools" and making sure both the SSL 2.0 and the SSL 3.0 boxes were checked (they were)

      5)i've gone into the "connection" tab in "internet options" and selected the LAN button to see if the "Automatically detect settings" button was checked- it didn't work checked or unchecked- still not able to access my e-mail accounts

      6) and last but not least, i've even tried restoring to former settings (since this problem only started about 3 days ago), i set the computer back a week through selecting Start menu, Programs, Accessories, System tools, and restoring to an earlier date prior to this limitation in accessing the web.

      is there anything else i can do to fix this issue short of having a tech come in and take care of it???

      thanks in advance for any advice- x-posted to all relevant communties.

      Hello, I just joined this fine community...actually it's quite an amazing coincidence that I found it right when my Apache server is having terrible problems.
      I haven't had problems with it up until recently, but lately it has just been really misbehaving on me! Normally I have one of my friends help me with it but he's really busy so hopefully someone here can be of service.

      Here it goes:

      I got a new computer (an emachine with Windows xp Media Edition) a few months ago and ran Apache on it just perfectly. I was all set to start working on a new layout for my web page when something weird happened with Comcast: they actually kicked me offline for having a virus! I never knew comcast could do that...so I had to go to Best Buy where they swept my entire computer clean and reinstalled all the things the machine came with. Luckily I had back up files of most of my pics and such...but not of Apache of course.

      So I had to re-install Apache from its website. This is around where the trouble started.
      When I re-installed it, I followed the guidelines that my friend (who has always helped in the past) had written down for me in previous emails. I had saved the emails so that I could refer to them later in case of such things.
      I installed Apache 2.0.55, or as the actual file is read: apache_2.0.55-win32-x86-no_ssl.msi to my desktop and then ran the file.
      I typed in my information correctly (I even double and triple checked that!), and then continued to install...and Apache ran perfectly fine.

      Then, of course, I had to go to the C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\conf file and modify the httpd.conf file. I copy and pasted what was in an email I received from my friend, which has always been correct in the past and which, previously, I have had NO problem with AT ALL.

      However, when I restarted Apache, I got the following message: "The requested operation has failed!"
      It hasn't started since then. *cries*

      I have tried to do the following to remedy (and possibly understand) what is going on:

      1. I tested the Apache Server Configuration
      when I did this, it said that there was an error on line 15 of the httpd.conf file. I checked line 15 and didn't see anything out of order, but I was also unsure of what I was looking for, so that didn't much help.

      2. I checked the Error Log File
      when I did this, this message (among message that were not errors or problems) came up:
      [Mon Dec 12 17:29:28 2005] [warn] (OS 995)The I/O operation has been aborted because of either a thread exit or an application request. : winnt_accept: Asynchronous AcceptEx failed.

      What exactly does this mean? I had no clue...

      3. I searched for the words "Asynchronous AcceptEx" on google and came up with a few sites that I thought might explain what was going on, but mostly they were just a bunch of people talking about similar problems, rather than a solution to the problem.


      Sooo...I still remain lost and need help!
      If anyone knows anything about this or has suggestions please let me know. This has been going on for about a month now and I am not a person with money (being a college kid and all), so I can't just have my domain name sit here being unused.
      :(

      Thanks to anyone who can help me!

    13. the web hosting question...

      Date: 12/14/05 (Web Development)    Keywords: php, mysql, database, sql, web, apache

      I was wondering if anyone could recommend me a webhost that will meet the following requirements:

      + I want as much control as possible. If I decide one week I want to mess around with OracleDB, I want to be able to install it. If I want to use Ruby on Rails, I want to be able to install that too. I basically want to be able to do as much server administration as possible

      + I have the following musts: PHP 5, Apache, MySQL(preferred, but some kind of database)

      + I need a decent amount of space and bandwidth, but not a whole lot.

      I have considered a dedicated server, but it seems to be far too expensive for now at least. Any ideas?

    14. Text Encoding Problem

      Date: 12/15/05 (Computer Help)    Keywords: html, web

      I recently installed Japanese as a second language on my computer, because I write some things in Japanese and such. But, this has messed with the text encoding on websites and well, everywhere. The \ is now a Yen symbol and things like that and it's really annoying. I figured out that going to View > Encoding > Western European (Windows) fixes it, but I have to do it for every webpage. And that doesn't help for when I'm coding for my sites in notepad with HTML or something. Is there some way to permanently fix this? =(

      By the way, if it makes a difference, I'm using Windows XP Home.

      Edit Ugh. So changing the encoding apparantly doesn't work anymore either. =/ Help~

    15. Securing webpages with Apache 2.0

      Date: 12/15/05 (Apache)    Keywords: web, google, apache

      Ok, I got the virtual hosts working. Now I'm wanting to set up a secure server. I've tried google and the apache website, and it's all seeming rather confusing and beyond what I need. I'm not worried about things like man in the middle attacks or anything like that, so certificates arn't needed. All I want to do is make a site encrypted, basicly https.

      How do I go about doing this?

    16. Help "locking down" a form

      Date: 12/16/05 (PHP Community)    Keywords: php, html, web, hosting, spam

      Thanks to the responses on the captcha code. I think I know what I can do with it, but as someone pointed out, there will be accessibility problems, which is an issue because the site I'm working on is a gov't site.

      My hosting company says the script to handle the contact form is vulnerable and that I should lock it down. They recommended the captcha method or a "guest" login requirement via .htaccess. I'll look into that, but in the meantime, they mentioned that my handler was "badly coded and allows more than one email address to be added to it." Since I've learned PHP by the seat of my pants, I'm not surprised, but I also don't know what to do to clean it up and make it better. Any help?
