@poster

I wonder for dis ur question.

state ur problems not "ask questions"

Nkem Owoh (Osuofia) is the funniest actor in the world (whether; Nollywood, Bollywood, Hollywood, or "Anywood" )

That dude is funnier than "Mr. Bones"

kX :


What about all the posts on bad road, power and poverty on his page, why has nt he addresed those issues?
To think that he even made bold to say he uses nigerian time to browse the internet sef and Facebook at that!
When your people are dieing of hunger,unemployment, bad roads, lack of power etc GEJ is busy browsing FB.

I don't want to call you a "FOOL"

mama-gee:

Actually, I watched the match today and I saw the German players clear the way for him to take a shot but instead he played the ball like he was giving it to the goalkeeper.

What about the botched freekick that had absolutely no target? Hit the ball 25m away from the crossbar

C'mon admit it, ronaldo, rooney and kaka are better than him.

He's a good dribbler and maybe an average player overall but he's not great.

U just dey talk because u get mouth, abi?

:-x

microscale:

@canachy
that's a great idea. how about collaboration on a technology kinda portal. where all Nigerian technology professionals and hobbyists can come and discuss and share ideas. that is in addition to tutorials.
i believe if we're going to 'launch Nigeria into the technology arena' as you said, then all of us must work together since there so few of us practicing high-tech in Nigeria.

You are right, microscale. It cannot be a one man show. United We Stand! I believe together we can do it (against all odds) and we shall do it.

since the spam bot wouldn't let us finish, I have decided to build a website for this purpose. The domain has been registered already; still uploading content. Once I have reasonable number of tutorials and projects uploaded, I will post the URL here. Remember; everything would be free; no gimmicks - its all about sharing and using our technical skills to launch Nigeria into the Technology Arena.

Best Regards

tallone:

y avnt there been any recent post, dont tell me ure all tired cuz i waz kinda learning a lot of cool stuffs

Not tired, It's just that this Nairaland Spam bot wouldn't let my post show, don't know why

All hope is not lost!!!

Final Group Match Result:

Argentina 3 vs Greece 0;

Nigeria 2 vs S koria 1

, and we are through to the round of 16, so guys make una no worry!!!

Nairaland's Spam Bot wouldn't allow me continue with this tutorial; keeps blocking my posts, I think I have given up!

Donpuzo:

Look, this is one of the many reasons why i hate developers who teach people or encourage people to learn development of sites with DW,

U don't have to.

Donpuzo:

It sucks, hope no developer feel offended, but i feel one should be able to decifere the difference between what DW can do and what is obtainable with some other technologies,

Advanced DW users can achieve everything u can achieve with your so called "other technologies"

Donpuzo:

@Poster. Both of the things you mentioned are only obtained off DW. What i mean is that you need to make use of some other stuffs.

BIG  LIE!!!

Donpuzo:

The second thing you wanna do, will need a Serverside Programming Language like PHP, JSP, ASP or the likes. It needs a level of knowledge of programming, although the interface (Form GUI) will be done using dreamweaver. Like your dropdown box and the likes. But making it work will require Programming!

Who told you DW does not handle PHP, ASP, JSP? You better say what you know!

oaklandm:

my wedding is comming up soon in owerrri ,i need to send out bulk sms,hw do i do dat?

*dhtml:

are you talking to me?

, hehehe. dhtml, if am not talking to u, then I should be talking to myself

Evang. Olu:

after purchasing the domain name, what's next. a respmse please.

After purchasing a domain, u have to sign up a hosting account with a web Host

we offer free domain name for life on all our hosting plans

visit http://www.twichihost.com

u may give us a try http://www.twichihost.com

feyisara:

Hi Webmaster  can u buy a web design book for $10

So long as it gives me value for my money, WHY NOT?

.

feyisara:

Hi webmaster has anyone use aimtechng.com hosting service? what is the services like in terms server uptime

Just give them a try, I think that is the best way to know what their service is like

feyisara:

Is it true that i can't host my domains with two different hosting company. What i mean is this if i host with a  web hosting company  and i don't like their service is true that i can't use another hosting until after 6 months. pls clarify this webmaster in the house

If you registered a domain newly, you may not be able to transfer it until after some months have elapsed; depending on the host (eg godaddy allows 60days - I think this is ICANN wait period).

However, this does not stop you from changing host: All you need to do is to change your domain DNS record (or have your registrar/Host do that for you) to point to the IP address of your (newly chosen) Host Server.

Publishing your website is not a difficult thing.

1. You need a web host. (there are quite a good number of Web Hosts out there)

U may still use our host http://www.twichihost.com

2. From your hosting account control panel (cPanel), you will have to install FrontPage Extensions to enable you publish your website from your FrontPage Application (since u used FrontPage for the design).

I hope this helps

If you are still not cleared, u may send an email to info(at)twichihost(dot)com or call 08064235940, 01 826 8942

*dhtml:

rubbish, this is just an attention-seeking thread. There is nothing like any special kinda scrollbar like that anywhere. get the fck outta here.

Next time, don't be quick to condemn, ok?

jjjkkkooo:

I have good knowledge of dreamweaver, fireworks, css, javascript.

If that is the case, then,  you don't need any tutor!!!

Does any one know who can teach these.

You can teach yourself!!!

visit

http://www.w3schools.com/   and     http://www.tizag.com/

to play with web technologies:

from web design (HTML, XHTML, CSS)  to

Scripting (JavaScript, AJAX, jQuery, PHP, ASP etc) to

Web Service (SOAP, RDF, WMLScript etc) to

Multimedia (Flash, SMIL etc)

and other stuffs like: XML, DTD, XSLT  to name but a few,


If you would take your studies seriously, I bet you, in 3 months time, U would come back here and rub shoulders with some NL Web "GURUS" like: Afam(Afam4ever), dHTML(), Dual  etc,

:-x

Let me give you some time to absorb what we have done so far; so you can ask your questions. I know someone is lost by now, lets clear your doubts before we forge ahead.

Any questions so far?

Am finally back after a long break. I didn't mean to stay this long; am really sorry about that.

Now straight to business. We have defined the terms, Embedded system and Microcontroller, and have also mentioned a few tools (hardware & software) that we'll be needing to kick start our embedded designs. I also mentioned that 8051 microcontroller family would be our reference in the course of this tutorial.


Before I proceed, I still want to reassure you that if you take this tutorial seriously, it is doubtful that you will not
grab a working understanding of embedded systems design. Having said that, lets move on straight to our lessons.

One more thing, its important that we trash the difference between a general purpose microprocessor and microcontroller now to avoid possible future confusions.

General Purpose Microprocessor:

1. has no ROM
2. has no RAM
3. has no input/Output (I/O) ports
4. has no timers




Microcontroller:

1. Contains Microprocessor
2. has ROM
3. has RAM
4. has I/O ports
5. has timers
6. might have ADC and other peripherals


P.S if you are working with microprocessors, you must interface with external ROM, RAM & I/O ports, Timers for them to

function (this makes the system bulkier and more expensive than microcontroller based systems - though it has the versatility on the amount of memory and ports)

P.P.S The fixed amount of on-chip ROM, RAM,and number of I/O ports makes microcontrollers ideal for many applications in which cost and space are critical.


[size=16pt]Now straight to 8051 Micro[/size]

---

8051 Microcontroller

8051 is quite an old guy in the world of micros, yet it has maintained its popularity over the years, thus, making it our right choice. After learning how to program this guy, you will have the choice of working with a wide range of micros that have been developed using its architecture. (eg AT89C51 by ATMEL)


lets quickly take a look at some of the features of the basic 8051 microcontroller.


1. 8051 has an 8 bit processor(this can only work on 8bits data at a time)

2. 8051 is a 40 pin (dip) chip

3. 8051 has 32 input/output pins

4. 8051 has 4 ports each is 8bit wide (Port0(P0.0 - p0.7), Port1(P1.0 to P1.7), Port2(P2.0 to p2.7), and Port3(P3.0 to

p3.7))

4. 8051 has 4k byte of onchip memory (code memory(EPROM) new variants have EEPROM and/or FLASH memory)

6. 8051 has 128 byte of usable internal RAM (data memory) and another 128byte of unusable RAM

7. 8051 has 8 general purpose registers (R0 to R7)

8. 8051 has 20 special function registers (Accummulator (A), Stack Pointer (SP), TMOD etc)

9. 8051 has the capacitity to address a maximum of 64Kbyte of external memory (having 16 Address lines A0 - A15)

10. 8051 has 2 timers

11. 8051 has 1 USART (serial port)

12. 8051 has 6 interrupt sources

I hope you are following
