 Webmasters › Re: Need A Quick Solution by krs1(m): 12:25pm On Oct 15, 2007 |
hi greatdbanj, here is a slight modification to the script smartsoft provided. it think it should fix the bugs you mentioned (remember the file name should still be send_mail.php): <?php @extract($_POST); $name = stripslashes($name); $email = stripslashes($email); $subject = stripslashes($subject); $text = stripslashes($text); if(mail(' youremail@domain.com ',$subject,$text,"From: $name <$email>"  ) {echo('Thank you for your interest, your e-mail was sent.'); } else { echo('<p>Oops! Mail could not be sent. SERVER ERROR</p>'); } ?> The guidelines provided by smartsoft still applies also make sure the contact.html looks like this: <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <title>HTML Mail Form</title> </head> <body> <form action="send_mail.php" method="POST"> Name: <input type="text" name="name" size="30" /> Email: <input type="text" name="email" size="30"/> Subject: <input type="text" name="subject" size="30"/> Text:<textarea name="text" name="text" cols="50" rows="10"></textarea> <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Send" /> </form> </body> </html> i hope it helps |

| Webmasters › Re: Images As A Text On Your Website Or Text Only by krs1(m): 10:25pm On Aug 21, 2007 |
@poster its not only links that are considered in Search Engine Optimizations especially if the info you want to represent is a major keyword for your site. Other than for SEO purposes, i dont see why a site developer cant use images and/or text to represnt info. it is all a matter of what the developer want to achieve on the website design. smartsoft:i dont quite understand how you could have 50% image and 50% text in one object. Or do you mean text in the title attribute of an <a> tag ? Pls enlighten me |
| Webmasters › Re: Images As A Text On Your Website Or Text Only by krs1(m): 4:54am On Aug 21, 2007 |
from an SEO point of view, images as text is a no-no. on the other hand, if you want fancy text for your menu tabs or navigation links, best option would be to use CSS to style them. |

| Webmasters › Re: Site Review/company Launch by krs1(m): 2:49pm On Aug 04, 2007 |
my2cents' own web dev company site, hmmmm and about time too. I guess you went for simplicity on this site which is good. I noticed the site was done with CSS. Ok. Try reducing the DIV#container width to min-width: 700px so as to cater for browsers with 800 by 600 pixel screen resolution. same thing for the header. Layout: Ok, Color theme: Ok, Content: Ok A few extra graphics wont be a bad idea though. |

smartsoft and niceuzor, you guys must have a thing for each other sometimes i enjoy your exchange of words.  |
| Webmasters › Re: Website Review by krs1(m): 11:10pm On Jul 18, 2007 |
smartsoft:Thanks. yours is cool too. |

| Webmasters › Re: Website Review by krs1(m): 7:08pm On Jul 18, 2007 |
first on syscomptech: its simple and straight to the point. its just like i would expect it to be. BUT you could make the banner image sharper and if possible make the "<< SYSCOMPTECH COMMUNICA, " text animated to make the page more lively. Also try sticking to one color theme on this site coz' i noticed that each page has a different color theme' on ahfhd: i noticed some images couldnt load and some pages too. Overall, nice work. |

one word for this site: AMATEUR WORK. but please don't take my comments too seriously. As per the form mail, USE THIS: on your form tag, point the action attribute to send_mail.php. Then create a new file, call it send_mail.php then insert the following code inside: <?php $headers = 'From:'. $source . "\r\n" . 'Reply-To:'. $source . "\r\n" . 'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion(); // mail($recipient, $subject, $message, $headers); if (@mail($recipient, $subject, $message, $headers)) { echo('<p>Mail successfully sent to the email address you provided!</p>'); } else { echo('<p>Oops! Mail could not be sent. SERVER ERROR</p>'); } ?> where $source = "sender's email addy"; $recipient = "recipient's email addy"; $subject = "email title"; $message = {actual email txt eg: $message ="this is the full text for this email"; } this script will send the form details to the email address you specify ie. $recipient PLS NOTE: you hve to have a basic knowledge of PHP to use this script. hope it helps. BUT PLS IMPROVE ON THE SITE. |
| Webmasters › Re: Is Programming A Prerequisite For Web Design? by krs1(m): 7:12pm On Jul 11, 2007 |
No. but having programming skills gives you the competitive edge. These days, clients are more demanding: you will hear things like 1. i need a database for my site 2. i need my feedback form to send the feedback details straight to my yahoo mail inbox 3. i need user authentication on my site for private viewing etc. etc etc programming skills definitely gives you the competitive edge. |

  wow! i am loving this. @la!, abeg tell them oooooo! Just a few days ago, i rejected N20,000 for a website just because i felt it wasn't enough for a quality job. I deliver quality and rather than sell myself cheap, i wont do it. It's not that i am rich. my biggest project was for N180,000 but that is just me. Afterall , they say "soup wey sweet, na money kill am". 1 love my brothers and sister(s) |

| Webmasters › Re: How Do Web Hosts/developers Make Money In Nigeria? by krs1(m): 10:32pm On May 14, 2007 |
@ abhosts: You butressed my point when you mentioned this friend of yours who paid N5000 for a domain and got nothing. I dont use hosting services from naija but go for the global ones like hostgator.com and ipowerweb for my clients. I tried nairahost.com one time when my credit card wasnt within reach and they are good but then it was N2500 for a domain only. A naija hosting site must have a clear record of stability and prompt service to get my vote. So in summary, i would say naija hosting sites would need to step up their acts. abhosts, e be like say you dey offer hosting as well . which one is it? |
| Webmasters › Re: How Do Web Hosts/developers Make Money In Nigeria? by krs1(m): 12:39am On May 13, 2007 |
It is as simple as this, there are so many desperate webdesigners out there who will do anything for some cheese even if they cant deliver. It makes the rest of us who know what we are doing look bad. Trust some nigerians, they go for these guys because its damn to cheap and at the end of the day they cry blue murder Okay, for example, take a look at majority of nigerian sites. you will find most of them incomplete or lacking no content at all. I mean, can you even get a decent domain for 1,800 naira? GOD DAMN  Its not even enough to fuel my car  |

| Programming › Re: Programming Certifications Advice by krs1(m): 5:00pm On Feb 07, 2007 |
Here is a simple tip for you, ade2kay do a research on what software applications that individuals and organisations in your area require most. Then find the best programming languages that can best meet those demands and start training yourself. Note: almost all programming languages are good, it all depends on the application you want to develop. |
