2buff: Simple ajax.
With the number of people on chat every second, if each were to hold down a socket via persistent connection push, there would not be enough sockets on the servers.
Even if they scaled out the hardware for it and were able to accomodate an infinite amount of persistent socket connections, YOU dont have that kind of money or hardware for that right now.

You are absolutely right. But there is a workaround. According to http 1.1 specifications a browser can only open a max of 2 connections to a webserver causing any other connections to be blocked. But we can create a diff hostname as an alias to the chat server. This way we escape that limitation. I believe this is what facebook is doing. Also I know (I have not tried this) that some servers can be tweaked to handle over 100000 TCP connections at a time. This largely depends on the operating system ur server is using. For facebook and their datafarms that's no biggie.

To clarify things, facebook uses realtime data streaming. They employ a technology that very similar to the comet server where connections are held by clients for a very long time and instead of each clients polling the server to check for updates, the server simply 'pushes' any updates to the clients. This way, it can scale to millions of clients just on a single box.last time I checked they use this same technique for their news feed, messages and notifications. The frontend is written in javascripts and the backend is written in java (they were using cassandra. But I don't know abt no sha.).

There is an open source project that does something similar: the ape server. U can dig in the code to know how it works in details.

modele2: Your challenge is very real and I chose to reply becos i have experienced a part of it(fortunately not the beating part but the part where he wants you to spend every penny you have).

First take a patience pill. A president is respected not becos of the person he is but the office he occupies. Your husbands attitude may be like po, but becos of his office as husband, still give him respect.

1. Call him regularly, be cheerful on the phone when you call, ask him about his activities nicely and be genuinely interested, Dont NAG about money. You can ask about the household needs when you really really have to. if he refuses, let it be.
2. Thank God you have a job and make do with what you have, dont make your contributions an issue, limit your contributions to what is necessary, no fancy stuff.
3. When he comes around stop the confrontation, since he does not listen and resorts to violence. Make the house as comfortable as possible for him
4. Stop asking about the car, your nagging will not get it for you, as you are doing save towards one if you can and it would stop giving him reasons to annoy you, forget the car is there. He would later wonder why you are not asking and might offer it,a t least for his children school runs.
5. Another problem is the distance, he is not around and cant see how you contribute to the family upkeep, if he has any resonable bone in his body, u could do a cash book of your expenses from time to time and show him.
6. His not being around also means honestly...that u add little value to him in terms of perks of marriage, so try and make up for it when he is around.
7. Find contentment in other things, make the house a nice place for him when he returns, reduce the quarrels as much as u can, peharps he can regard you with more warmth. He would at a point look forward to comming home.
8. Look for support, raising the boys alone is not easy, get help so you can have more time for your self.
9. Then my dear, dont be tired of praying.
10. One day he would come round and you would truly begin to enjoy your marriage. One person has to conscede or play the fool in a quarrel, since it is thou that seeketh peace, then thou must play the fool.

OMG I want to marry you.

The truth be told, what u are trying to do is no newbie task at all.

An approach is to create a joomla plugin that gets triggerred after the 'onuserlogin' event. This redirects the user to a module u have prepared for the tests.

Another way is to develop an entire component for the test that get categorised into sections eg english, maths etc. You then make this component the default after user login.

In summary, you have to know a bot about the internals of the cms to pull this off as I don't think there is an existing exetension in the JED that does this out of the box.

Dual Core:
This info is incorrect. In OpenVZ 10 VPSes can be assigned 512MB each on a container with 2GB. I think you are mistaking it for XEN.

ha. You are correct. I must have typed that while i was drunk

yawa-ti-de:
^^^ he he, I am actually developing a lesson series as we speak. Hopefully it is something I can start up soon. Pray for me in this regard that if it's meant to be, that it happens soonest

Let us prepare the lesson together #wherismyschoolbag

what kind of knowledge do you have. You did not state even one particular skill. what can you do.

Tell the house what you know and i am sure someone will help.

@yawatide: i want you to be my teacher

do a quick search on google. Simple. But be ready to spend some money sha and i think you will also need to collaborate with GSM service providers too. It aint gonna be beans oo

bump. sorry

But wait oo. website design tutorials in 3days? i learnt mine in 5 years. am i dull or what

Managed vps costs more. why not get an unmanaged vps from linode. I think thier cheapest plan comes with 512mb ram and cost is $20. And it is built with OpenVZ so 512mb is 512mb. you get all you buy fully.

Linode is an american hosting company sha but they accept naira mastercard. No downtime at all and you control everything. I have been using them for 2 yrs now and very happy. Try them and say thank you

Kapish!

rite back @ ur signature: "do i look like i give a fckk??"

Dondav: F*ck... They are both fugly... I can't have an ugly girl fighting over me.. Talkless of two!!

guy it takes two to fight over u

i hate snakes

Visit www.netnyx.com to see what I have done.

I design quality and professional websites within a week.

Holla if u are interested.

searay: Now this my excuse:
I'll blame GEJ for...

uh-uhn. I don catch first psn

zuzzy21: @ sarutobi I enjoy ur coment so far on facebook ad issues,pls am having difficulty trying to ad on facebookni want to make some clarification pls can u send me ur number so I can call u to ask some tinsi wil so apreciat.tank u

sorry cant sent u my number, but you can add me as friend on nairaland. I will be more than willing to help

The reason has been said times without number by many people.

This is also one of the reasons many men look outside their home for pleasure after marriage.

A woman has to look beautiful for her man always.

Also before you pay online always look for a site that is verified. Your browser will tell you if a site is verified.

There are many fake website out there just waiting for you to input your passwords.

for example gtb.com can be named as guranteetrustbank.com or accessbank.com could be accesssbank.com

just pay attention to the names.

now that is a good excuse.

We always find something to blame.

Lemme wait for those GEJ bashers come in and say it was his fault

it will really help your business if you can post the link to ur website and also links to sites you have done.

the problem is caused by your table name prefix.

1. Delete the database and create it again

2. Go to your local joomla installation and export the tables in the database using phpmyadmin

3. go to phpmyadmin on the remote server and import this tables into the database.

NOTE:

1. check the configuration file "configuration.php" in the root of your joomla install and make sure the field "database_prefix" correlates with what you have in your tables. eg [tableprefix]_tablename.

2. Another cause of this problem is the fact that when you order a shared hosting, cpanel automatically appends ur username against all ur tables and databases. If theis is so, just edit the database prefix in the configuration.php file to match what has been appended to the table names.


Let us here a feedback

Out.

okeyxyz: what the "heck!!" are u talking about? You programme with IDE but don't know anything about codes. So what do you use your IDE for if not coding? writing essays??

chillax man. He only said he uses an IDE, most of them have drag-n-drop functions and one-click functions. for instance u click a button on dreamweaver and then the software creates a table for u.

@poster, i will call you a novice designer, programming is a hell lot more than what you are doing. A lot of us started just like u so dont be bothered. Just keep learning and researching.

Saw this somewhere on mashable and decided to share:

The dude now has more of his sibling working for google than his own facebook #awkward

The G in Google is really Big!

article:
In what may make for awkward family get-togethers, Mark Zuckerberg‘s sister, Arielle, is now a Google employee.

The younger Zuckerberg is presumably making the move as part of Google’s acquisition of Wildfire Interactive, which was announced on Tuesday. Arielle’s blog lists her occupation as junior product manager for the social media marketing firm. Arielle previously offered constructive criticism of her brother’s company’s site overhaul last fall.

Arielle’s not the only Zuckerberg sibling in the business. Randi Zuckerberg, former director of marketing for Facebook, left the company last August to pursue other projects. Randi is an executive producer for Silicon Valley, a Bravo reality TV show that is raising hackles in the Valley for bringing Hollywood voyeurism to tech.

Zuckerberg also has another sister, Donna, who was born in 1987.

@poster: you can as well tell us to program in assembly language or just punch in the 1100110 100010 1000110 etc.

programming is abt efficiency and speed.

I also program in java and believe me after abt 7 years in the game i cant say that i know all of the classes, interfaces and packages in the java standard library. They are huge. This is minus their methods, variables, whethter public, protetced, private or static. (i believe this is where IDEs come in). If you are just learning, then using notepad is a good idea.

My guy if u program in the real world you will forget notepad. i use notepad to write love letters and if someone ever codes a love letter IDE, i will be more than willing to switch

just go and read beginning PHP from novice to professional by jason gilmore. forget others, they are too easy(hence teaching you nothing) or too hard(gives u a headache)
Read from cover to cover. (over a 1000 pages)

that was the guy that taught me PHP over 7 yrs ago

Everything should work fine until the interpreter gets to the line that contains the header statement.

There you have instructed PHP to forget everything done so far and go straight to "contact.php".

Something tells me you want to redirect the user to the contact page AFTER the mail has been sent which means the header statement should be the LAST line.

Another scenario is that you wanted to INCLUDE the "contact.php" file as an helper class to the current script, in this case you use "REQUIRE" or "INCLUDE" and this statement should be at the very top.

All this is as a result of 'copy and paste'

Dual core and afam were spot on.

Download riot ( radical image optimization tool). It makes u compress an image without losing quality. I use one for linux but there should be one for windows.

About your phone: you are probably taking photos in high resolution. Go to ur camera settings. Set it to medium or low quality. This should solve the problem.

Peterson1993: I wonda who that omni guy was. His profile is very strange.

Last seen= Never

And uspry "does not exist".

The fact is that no one would remain in this forum for ever. The concept not changing to stick everyone around..Am kinda getting bored bored already. Reading old articles from morning till night
