How many people here would be interested in a piece of software that converts RSS feeds into audio files that could be downloaded as .mp3 or .wav formats?

So, here's the deal.

Keywords: php, mysql, sql, web, hosting
I'm looking for a new webhost, and I've been through a bunch of the old posts here asking for host suggestions, so far though nearly all of them still only support php 4.* not php 5. Do any of you guys have any hosting solutions that offer mysql, and php 5 for relatively cheap(~10$/mo)?

IE

can someone tell me if there is a later version of IE than IE 5 for the Mac?
i'm designing a web page and want to make sure it's compliant in all browsers...
also, does anyone have any good sites or places to "take" your website to find out why CSS is working in some browsers and not in others?
thanks!

Col and Colgroup
Date: 06/02/06
Keywords: no keywords
I was thinking about using column styles in a table I'm fooling with offline, but I noticed that none of the styles or changes were showing up in Firefox or Opera, only IE. I tried using the example tables from here, here, and here, but only IE will change styles. I know only a handful of style choices (eg border, color) are available with colgroups, but those ones aren't working either (IE of course uses any style rules in there because it's wacky like that). Can anyone shed some light on this issue?

X-posted to all hell
Date: 06/02/06
Keywords: cms, asp, web
Dear all,
I need some info.
This is our company website. It is a big old mess structure wise. There is no CMS or anything useful like that and the architechture/navigation is terrifying. It's a serious nightmare to update (especially for me trying to navigate asp!!) and it needs to be more user friendly.
I am trying to recommend a course of action that is going to be cost effective (ie. the lower cost, the better) going forward. I think that it would be great to get a content management system in place since we're hoping to use the website a lot more extensively in the future. This would not be difficult since it's barely been touched since it's creation.
My questions are:
- A good, basic, cheap CMS - can someone recommend one?
- Having a quick look at the site, would we benefit having an Information Architecht help?
- Any other suggestions
Thankee!
Dominique

"Tell A Friend" problem in IE, not FF?
Date: 06/02/06
Keywords: browser, asp
I've got a "tell a friend" script I found for ASP that works fine in Firefox. It however, does not work fine in IE (and here I was thinking IE was the most forgiving browser!)
When you click on the "Mail It" link, you get a pop-up window with fields for your name, friend's name and email address. The comment area shows "I found an article I thought you'd like to see:" and then it should show the URL.
In IE, the URL does not show up. In Firefox, it does.
If anyone can help, that would be great. Not sure if I should post code here or what...
Thanks,
Chris

Quirks
Date: 06/01/06
Keywords: browser
So I was reading this article this morning about quirks and strict modes for browsers. After reading it I set up a page according to its recommendations, I think. The page has a header with 3 columns underneath of it. In IE the left most of the 3 columns seem to have extra margin on the left whereas in Firefox the header and the left column line up properly. Here is a link.
I may need coffee as I woke up early to my dog freaking out because of a thunderstorm. If someone could explain what I did wrong due to lack of coffee and brain cells.
Thanks

commas in the string.
Date: 05/31/06
Keywords: html, database, java
So I have this simple function that swaps an image and its caption on an HTML page:
function changeBigImg(source, content) {
if (source != null) {
document.getElementById("showedImage").src = source;
document.getElementById("imageCaption").innerHTML = content;
}
}
The problem being is that 'content' is being fed from a database, and I have no pull on how they enter the data, and some of the strings being fed into 'content' contain commas, which break the function.
If the title of the image has commas or single quotes, then the JS image switching fuction does not work.
edited to add examples-
This one works:
javascript:changeBigImgSideBar('/photo_servlet?contentId=34153&ver
sion=1&locale=EN-US&subtype=MIMG','Napoleon Dynamite wishes he had skills like this','height')
This one does not:
javascript:changeBigImgSideBar('/photo_servlet?contentId=33918&ver
sion=1&locale=EN-US&subtype=MIMG','Cindy, Kim, and Q doing their best Sinead O'Connor impersonations','width')
Slight variance from js protocol in my examples aren't the problem -- it consistently happens with commas and/or single-quotes.
So I was pondering if anyone had a suggestion for a way to replace the commas in the string with commas that will only be read as text, not seperators.
Thank you!

hosting question
Date: 05/31/06
Keywords: asp, sql, web, hosting, spam
My org's website is being redesigned, and in the near future we are going to have a backend members only area written in. Because of this, we need to switch hosts, and because our hosting company is going under. These are the items that the company doing our web design/develop listed as us needing in a host.
Basically, what you'll need is the following:
1.) ASP/ASP.net capable
2.) several e-mail accounts (with Web-based access as well, which I believe is standard)
3.) SPAM filtering (we use an application called "Postini" for a small fee per mailbox)
4.) In the near future, we may need either MS Access or SQL Server for your MO area. It's not totally necessary to have this right out of the gate. I would just make sure that one of these can be added to the server if/when it becomes necessary. It will probably cost extra.
They suggested this company: http://www.irides.com but the small disk space and transfer limits concerned me.
Does anyone have any reliable hosting suggestions that they've used for business site needs?

How do you find freelance work?
Date: 05/31/06
Keywords: web
I apologize if this topic has been discussed before.. but for any of you freelancers out there, where and how do you find work? I've done a few websites, but they're all for friends, people I know, company I work for, etc. I got one job off of Craigslist for graphic design that paid well and will be an ongoing thing, but I don't want to rely on Craigslist postings for design work. I've had several people recommend me to others, but for one reason or another those deals always fall through. So what else can I do? Anyone have any good tips/advice?

Dreamweaver question
Date: 05/31/06
Keywords: web
I've been using Dreamweaver to create a rather large website. I just bought a new external hard drive, and decided that I should have a back-up of all those files. I copied the root folder from my internal hard drive and put it on the exteranl drive.
Now, whenever I try to add an image or document to the root folder in Dreamweaver, it's not showing up when uploaded. I'm sure that the problem is that there are two copies of the root folder, and Dreamweaver is confused about finding the requested document.
Has anyone experienced something like this? Would it hekp to go through all the files on the exteranl drive and rename them slightly so there are no exact duplicates?
Thanks for any advice!

Form tag help

Keywords: no keywords
Hey everyone,
I'm working on a site, and for some reason that I cannot figure out, a few of my pages in dreamweaver are telling me that the form tags are not valid because they are in a tag that they don't belong in. The thing is, I haven't changed that part of the page at all. In code view, the form tags are not color coded at all, though that setting is turned on. The site uses coldfusion. Has anyone had this problem or have any suggestions? THANKS!
