In addition to what Gerald has said...and if it doesn't work, if you are still interested in screenshots, I believe your mobile device can capture a screenshot, which you in turn upload to this thread |
I once overheard someone a long time ago saying that after they got hacked, they hired someone to detect such attacks and send a worm to the attackers end. He then had that counter-hack write a report to him so that he knew what was going on. According to him, it only took a short while before the hackers stopped. Short answer: yes it can be done. You just have to find the right person/people to do it Good luck! |
There are people called venture capitalists and angel investors who are better versed at judging successful business ideas than we are. I suggest you show it to them. For instance, fairly recently, there was a VCAfrica event that just rounded up in Kenya and a Nigerian was there that showcased his product called RAMP. If it makes sense to them, they will fund you and you make it from there. Good luck! |
OP: Considering how popular pinerest is, what would you be offering extra to make current pinterest followers to use your app, as opposed to pinterest? If you can answer the above with a convincing business answer, then you are on your way to making it. Otherwise, consider your exercise as a test of your coding skills and nothing more. Good luck! |
To those who intend to take on the job: Note that this is a WP site and so you will need more than the style.css, index.html and images. You will probably need FTP access to the account hosting the site, including admin access to the WP back end. good luck! |
You don't need any specific "codes" per se. Just make sure that, among others, you have good content, you use semantic HTML, your images have ALT tags and your meta tags for KEYWORDS, TITLE and DESCRIPTION are populated with rich content. Then give it a month or 2, check the rankings for your site and keep refining till you get to the top Good luck! |
1) Screenshot please 2) If all you are worried about is disabled border, it could be because you have "border=0" in the table tag and each browser display that differently 3) What is your desired effect? 4) If your concern is #2 above, consider taking out the border attribute and doing everything in CSS for consistency Good luck! |
1) What do you mean by, "Distorted"? A screenshot would help 2) If you are using a responsive template, then on a mobile device, the navigation would be hidden, until you tap the nav icon 3) side note: Since people are used to tapping (as opposed to sliding) on mobile devices, you should consider this building navigations Good luck! |
When you say you have tried everything, what exactly does that mean? As the poster above me has said, the algorithm changes without notice. There are also other reasons (you don't update regularly, you are not featuring original content, etc etc) |
<br> Technicality: In XHTML, it would be <br />...<br> if using HTML 5. Of course, this is if you are the type to validate your code after development. It's all about the DOCTYPE that you use. If you don't validate your code, <br> should be just fine. Good luck! |
Interesting. Still works for me. Maybe they have it on multiple servers and the one for my locale is up while yours isn't. Keep trying. When Sun Newspaper Online wants to be good, they are good. I have been visiting consistently (even on days they are offline) since 2007. Good luck! |
You will need more than html and css. If I were you, I would probably invest the $150 and purchase a license for JomSocial which is a plug in for Joomla. Very intuitive and has a low learning curve. Good luck! |
As at the time of this post, it is coming up for me in my locale. Try again. |
PHP is popular and easier to set up...and is open source. I'd start with it. Good luck! |
If you a visual person, make YouTube your friend. |
Could it also be that since the site was coded using frontpage that the host doesn't come with frontpage extensions? In other words, could it be that the account is linux-based? Just something to think about. Might not be the case, but hey, you never know. When I hear frontpage and cpanel put in the same sentence, that immediately jumps out to me. |
No. I can get an IP address for my printer connected to my office network. Therefore, again, the answer to your question is no. |
With your text editor and web server... |
I believe OP Is referring to the ability, via a form, to collect info from website visitors...akin to a "sign up for our newsletter" form. If this is the case: Easy, cheesy way: 1) Create a regular form, with all the fields you want to have 2) Send the results via email to the desired email address "Hard" but preferred way: 1) Create a database to capture the fields you want 2) Create your form 3) On submit, write the results to a database Good luck! |
Hmm, given the name, make i log on to am make una use that as portal to hack into my lappie? Mba, biko nu ![]() |
1) IMHO, it probably makes sense to do this on the backend. For instance, what if javascript is turned off? Either way, the logic is the same: a) Get the year, using the language's date library. Or just hardcode the year in mind (say 2020) b) Store the year in a variable c) Run your (for) loop like so: for(i=0 (this could also be hardcoded to a particular number, say 1917); i <= (your year variable...could also have been hardcoded); i++) { print i; } 2) Looks like you want to use PHP's fopen(), or whatever function here |
Actually, I was willing to offer 1K. I would have said free but I realize that we all have to be paid for our efforts ![]() 15K? Geez!! ![]() |
Displaying is fine but what about hosting? Video files are generally very large. Does he have his own dedicated server. or some CDN? If not, I would find a way to convince him to stick to youtube or vimeo. I mean, why do the suffering when someone else is willing to do it for you ![]() |
Your request doesn't make sense to me. What exactly are you asking for? Reply with a specific example. Note: Your response doesn't necessarily mean that I may be able to help you. All am saying is I need to know more to determine if I can help you at all ![]() |
Right there, you are limiting yourself. What is wrong with you coming up with a search engine written in your language? Must you always be a consumer? Regardless, I have a website that serves as a dictionary for my language. It gets hundreds of hits a day. Sure, it is written in English but the bulk of the content is in my language. So, don't worry about the base language. Build it and if people see value in it, they will come. Good luck! |
Tis the beginning of the future for mobile web dev - write once, use everywhere. Big time companies are beginning to use it. You really have no excuse not to. Of course, you could choose to ignore it at your own business peril. |
That's government and cronyism for you. Having been fortunate to have worked for companies whose sites are visited by millions daily, I can say that they had it all wrong, especially considering they had 3 years to prepare for this. Worse case, they could have done away with the gold plating. They could have instead done a soft launch, with quality assurance running the tests, then add on more requirements over time. They would have also done some load testing and anticipated the worse case scenario of at least half the estimated people who don't have insurance, logging on at the same time. Have you viewed the main .js file that they "wrote"? If not, please do. It's sickening. Bottomline, the coders and the US government goofed! At a time when the US is running massive deficits and owes trillions, this "project" has been one massive FUBAR |
Why do some people always prefer to say, "contact me" for posts like this instead of posting the answer(s), or links to the answer(s), so that others can learn? ![]() SMH |
1) Reduce the height of the "good governance" header in the nav area, top right. It is causing the entire nav area to be unnecessarily "fat". Besides, if you hover over an item, you note that the hover background isn't as tall as the main background, thus bolstering my point. 2) I find it interesting that the client doesn't want a slider at the top but wants an article slider at the bottom. Doesn't make sense to me. SMH 3) You probably should move the "about us" tab right next to "home". For people like me, what determines whether or not I surf a site is what I find on the "about us" page. If I can't easily find the page, as is the case here, I quickly lose interest |
A few things, some of which borders around consistency: 1) Header image is loading on some pages but not others 2) In chrome, navigation text is not vertically aligned with the green container 3) Services page: Makes sense to list the services (UL and LI) with links, then you click the link and either it is an intra link to the corresponding section on the same page or a link to another page 4) Gallery: a) Not your fault (if you didn't take the images). I am putting myself in the shoe of a potential customer. I am looking at those pictures and the faces of those employees don't say, "hi, I look forward to securing you and your property". Perhaps they should go for models or professionally taken photos b) your fault: When I hover over a thumbnail, the other thumbnails "run" across the screen. What I would expect is for the thumbnails to "run" only when I click the last visible thumbnail, or a "next" link. |
