All these questions are easily answered. Ask the owner of the site how far he is willing to go to put these features. It is not about why are they not there, ask the owner why has he not decided to put these things in place. I have suggested some previously. It seems like he is just simply satisfied. This is not an issue about the limitation of the application being used on this site.

This is more like ok, I have this up and running, and I have people on it so I am satisfied withi what i have no need to change much let it just run itself? Why put in more effort if I am getting things out of it? Well, definitely more effort can be put in place to make this work better and also for the owner to benefit more from this but guess what? He is just satisfied with what is and not what should be.

This is not about open source or closed source. Google SMF RSS, SMF mobile you will find solutions that are in existence based of the same application NL is running off. Simple Machine Forum

This is just an individual's willingness to go as far as he/she could go but doesnt wish to go.

it is not about software platform it is about user mentality. Dont let the computer use you, use the computer

@kachi_face  "fact that it runs on open source, it may not be able to scale so quickly or at all"


If you are not sure of what you are writing it is best not to write anything all. Tools that companies like facebook use to scale their application were open source and they created some of their own and provided them to everyone as open source. Basically what you are saying is similar to this that a group of people decided to create a F1 racing car. However, since they are not corporate, they may not have the necessary knowledge and tools to create a high performance car that will be able to compete with companies like ferrari. This is absolutely flawed.

I have taken the time to help search for resources, hope you can read and others to so they understand what scaling is about.

Well, this is a developer's issue that is if their dba and programmers are different. Architecture planning, all tlhese issues must have been addresses. The main pages are password protected, But pages loading via javascripts are not password protected. I dont knowif they were thinking that protecting the parent page will protect others and left the security for the children.

From what I have seen, do Nigerian companies go tru system reviews after initial deployment? The major companies I have seen so far, after the first deployment, no reviews are done just keep adding to it.

Have you ever seen websites that have pure sql statements in their url?
eg

http://www.samplesite.com/sql=Select+something+something+from+tablename+where+columnname=something

This I just saw on a major nigerian financial institution client login page. and basically if you change the statement to something like this


http://www.samplesite.com/sql=Select+something+something+from+tablename+where+columnname>1

You will get all the information of their customers.

I was wondering, a major financial institution is it that they are not aware of these simple details?   Someone please help me put my head around this.

I am not talking about a small financial organization o. I am talking major.

This is another one from my previous post. That has been fixed.

@Slyrox,
Feel ya, was in a similar situation, got invited to meet with a major financial organization in Lag, but chose not to go cos of security concerns, however, I wrote to them on on to fix their system, and after several months of wondering, and I checked again lo and behold my recommendations were implemented.

It is unpredictable what could have happened, but it is also good to have a backup plan just in case you find yourself in a similar situation.

I doubt if there is a more efficient alternative than what was given. except you create tables and do alternating colors with js

Seriously, I was thinking html DOM in line with OGZILLE but I have finally convinced myself that afam's method is the most efficient of course changing cololor to color and am too lazy to find the hex for orange. so when you add a new line, simply do a find and replace voila. no need to go hundred and one times changing colors. The downside to this is that your file size will gain weight. The next point that may come up is what if you dont have find and replace on the pc u are using, well you will have to go get a real pc then.

<table>
<tr bgcolor='#fff'>
<td></td>
</tr>
<tr bgcolor='orange'>

<tr bgcolor='#fff'>

<tr bgcolor='orange'>

</table>

or use jquery to traverse,

Someone shoot me in the brain. I have not tried my hands on HTML5, and if that is where your answer lies, I have to call a referee for you o, cos this one will be categorized as knowledge discrimination. lol

Well am also curious as to what the answer is.

IMHO, this is how I see it.

Previously, I could randomly reply to posts. But now, I cant find any post that is challenging, interesting, and creative enough for me to post a response. Those who know their stuff know where to find the info they need, the novice, start threads that have been discussed previously. It is basically repetition now.

This may sound arrogant but sincerely to me, the quality of posts are poor.

Website reviews are kinda getting stale, css questions (google first), php, javscript similar old questions.

So what am I supposed to do Come up with my thread? Well, nothing interesting enough to post. So what gives?

I saw your first post, ignored it but I strongly would advice you to tone down your choice of words when writing and not sound arrogant. Be careful how you thread. From my experience, I have on my own time tested several web applications in Nigeria and found security vulnerabilities. The best course is to get in touch with them and follow through. You can post about the issue in general terms and ask for suggestions on how to go about contacting the organizations and how to help them.

I have gotten in touch with several companies, some accusing me that I am the hacker. But who cares. Some have invited me for security talks all expense paid, flight hotel , but never went for the presentation. Not that I was afraid of a backlash. It would have even been worse for the companies if I had gone and tried to pull a fast one against me. You have to know how to handle these situations.

It is until after you have talked with the company and they listening to fix the issue then, after you have verified it has been fixed, you can release the information you had. Since it is no longer an issue. My personal process goes something like this.

Test > if security vulnerability is found > contact company > continue contacting until i get an audience > wait over several weeks > check back > if still exists > contact again and ask for updates on steps taken > wait several weeks again > if no positive steps are been considered > escalate > ask for public opinion, maybe someone reading could have an insider to push things > if resolved > ask for permission to post about the issue depending on the company's line of business > if not fix this is a tough one you can release info to pressure company be careful with this though.

Your discoveries are nothing if you do not see the companies making the necessary changes.

If you are taking this route for recognition, well you have not portrayed the type of character someone would like to work with.

Cool down the tempo

lol

Need info on budget hotels/guest houses in Calabar

If you have names, telephone number, prices that will be of great help.

Also if you know how many hours it takes to go by road from Port Harcourt to Calabar, kindly post.

Gracias

Using google translate for latin based languages is very good but not perfect. Though there are some things it cant just translate the way you want it to.

If you ever find yourself doing Asian translation for website or generic, please avoid using automated translators. Yes they will give you a general idea of what you need but quite often the grammar is wrong and totally off especially Chinese.
I tried using GT to translate sentences while I learned Chinese, it helped but grammar was off。It will get you into the door but maybe not get you to sit at the dinner table for a professional quality translation.

McDonald's or KFC fell into a situation like this in China maybe last year. There are some numbers and number combination in Chinese that are priced.

520 = I love you
888 = wealth, prosperity
4 = death = no no
etc

So in advertisements on tv and radio, one of the companies got a special telephone number with one of the novelty numbers that any company would like to have. Unfortunately for the company, when the numbers are written, everyone understands but when it was spoken, I am not sure they used a native Chinese speaker to say the numbers but it meant completely different thing that was leaning towards the annoying side. It caused a backlash.

It is best to always use a native speaker if you have access to one.

Though you will see many Chinese MP4 players, but some companies avoided using that because of the number 4 which means death depending on how it is spoken and skipped to MP5 players. I just thought they like adding numbers to things until I began to understand why.

There are many companies that have gone to Asian countries and were not able to succeed as they were importing their ideas into a very homogeneous society that takes pride in its culture.

When doing any translation work be very careful of what you do even if it is latin based like french spanish that may seem easy. Always get a second or third opinion from native speakers.

This my major issue with websites or application that boasts about a certain number of uses. Granted it is impossible to stop people from creating multiple accounts either legimately (a la banning), or for trips. I see right now it is count 610,000+ members, how many of those accounts belong to one person? Let alone inactive. Definitely tons are spam.


@DHTML
Geez men, you want to get banged?

Hope you realize that each of your sections are independent, that means people will have to have different logins for the students, forum.

u could have used joomla for everything instead of joomla, wordpress and phpbb on separate installs. Look more into joomla components. or if u want to keep the three apps, you can look for a modification that can unify the three systems together to use a single login and to maintain session states.


Sniffles

It is just small scale personal and business info site. They really get not much traffic.

IT serves the purpose but of course if you want better, their vps is pretty decent and you can get customised.


Works so far.

Smartwebng , difficult for them to reply to tickets on time maybe a couple days later

My normal host is ixwebhosting.com

I like their service, very good not a single complaint having used them and recommended them to several clients.

Will always recommend them. If you make an order they do verification, so they will actually call u before processing the order even if u r in Nigeria. Kinda neat though.

Bla bla bla yabba yabba do,

I wrote in English. Yes I know how you will feel that is why I wrote this. eh eh

first, i understand they are resellers, becoming a reseller comes withi many responsibilities. But smartwebng it is like they dont care at all, I still have an issue that they have not fixed for several months now.

I can never recommend them to anyone again. I definitely know I wont be using Nigerian resellers again go direct to source.

Seriously I have no idea what is happening as long as i can connect, am happy. Now I have over 5GB thanks you nepa

Using a friend's mtn dongle, I installed the software saturday nightI paid for a 24hour plan 500 Naira Only. I am still able to use the same subscription two days running now. I have downloaded over 4GB.

A friend has challenged me to get over 10GB in another 24hours.

Time to download movies yippie


When I check post paid airtime i see 10.00Naira but when I check prepaid, it is always timing out .

This is very wrong it wont be that successful guaranteed.

Wrongest Move

I have taken a bow several times, taken long leave of absence and guess what, am back.

Feedback if successful

Has anyone ever tried using Jquery to build Opera Widgets and ran smoothly on the mobile device. I do know that there is Jquery for mobile.

If anyone has ever done this, kindly give a feedback.

Downloading music without buying, downloading movies without buying is illegal. Your website can be easily shutdown

Yea some of these are highly traffic sites, yea you are in Nigeria and no one cares right? Think about it this way, you someday create a software that you are selling. Someone gets on your site, downloads it and cracks it and puts it up for everyone to use without paying you. Then how would you feel? If people are ripping your work without credit or paying you how would you feel. Basically the same thing in your situation. You are not hosting true, but pointing people to where they are. That was the major argument that piratebay tried using, but what happened?

Also as a company, you dont know who is looking at your site, if a musician visits your site and sees it, do you think he/she would still call you if theperson had developed interest in your works? How many company website that provide services put such links up. Well, you need not listen and take all this into consideration but leaving it up there is detrimental to your objectives.

You dont have any idea the types of people looking at your site now, you dont have any idea as to the number you have easily discouraged by those links being up there. Find me a company's website that has those types of link that is an IT company.

Incompatible

You have your stuff and you are adding links to download movies and mp3s, (copyright anyone?) dont promote anything that is illegal. remove those links.
