 | We haven't allowed rep in the Community Center for a very long time, as AD pointed out. While some people don't get too caught up on rep points, other people choose to take them more seriously, and I think it wouldn't be fair to those long time members to suddenly …  |

 | I don't necessarily see it as a bad thing because it's just one of the things that is "encouraged" with the promotion of our API. Funnily enough, it actually both makes their site more established and *also* establishes us as a content provider in Google's eyes, so it's a win-win … |

 | In NYC it's called taking public transportation. I've never heard of "public transport". Transport is a verb, as in to transport something.  |
 | Ewwies! What do you mean by continuous refresh mode?? I have the site open in IE 8 on Windows 7 and everything is fine. Are you in compatability mode or IE 8 standard? Also, can you try disabling ads from your member profile and let me know if it still …  |
| | Anyone around here own a tech publication and use NetShelter. They just announced earlier this week that they were sold to Ziff Davis. They're a big player in the industry so just wondering if it impacts anyone out there in Internet land? |
 | Re: yahoo news Thank you for the news .... Never used tumblr myself though. Wonder what this will mean. |
 | Re: Erk Glad you're feeling better. It seems like it really was the only time in existance that I can recall a 24 hour bug truly being only one single day. Head and neck tattoos don't sound fun though, but who am I to say? :) |
 | Yes, you can. You can reverse a vote by clicking on the arrow again. |
 | You have to be careful when doing that though. It's frowned upon in many forums for being spam. Since you'd be posting in other forums related to what your site is about, the last thing you want to do is get a bad reputation in your industry. Definitely post in … |
| | > But what women spend comes from mens Says who? :-P > The good news is that those customers are not put off by the more robust of security measures, and 78% were happy to use banking security keys, fobs and passwords. Just a mere 18% of idiots would prefer …  |
| | Hyphenated domain names are better for SEO because the search engines can actually pick out keywords from the domain name URL - and some have said that weighs heavily in ranking. Personally, I think that the amount benefited is counteracted 100-fold with a quick and easy domain name that allows … |
| | Alexa only collects data on the top 100,000 sites. If you rank in 3+ million, they won't collect any data on you. |
| | I've never even heard of entourank, to be honest, and I put absolutely no faith in Alexa. Nowadays, I will check out Quantcast rankings for sites that have been Quantified, but other than that, I would recommend that you ask to see Google Analytics data before making a website purchase. … |
 | I've never heard of it and I don't know any other sites that implement it. But I'd consider using it if those things should change. |
 | Re: Mobile App? A mobile app is actually in the works. While there are no plans to develop anything in-house, a friend of mine runs a private consulting firm that specializes in mobile apps, and they're excited about using our new API to develop something for us. However, I couldn't give you any … |
| | That is illegal. We don't deal with stuff like that in this community. Sorry.  |

 | It was moved from the top to the bottom because it was taking up valuable real estate at the top and yet never clicked on. It receives just as much traffic with a link just at the bottom.  |
 | So sorry about that!! That's what happens when I directly upload the file my designer gives me without double-checking it first. |
| | Ugh, I'm kinda pissed about it. We got hit in the previous Panda algorithm update a few months ago, and I was really hoping for a recovery this time. I've been refeshing my analytics all day waiting for it to come. Then, just a few minutes ago, I was talking … |

| | Do you mean that you have a desktop computer, but you want to use a laptop monitor for the desktop computer? I don't think you can do this, to the best of my knowledge. Your laptop's video card would need to support a monitor-in connection (I forget whether it's a … |
| | You say you want to take an existing platform and modify it, but you haven't really given any details as to what *language* you want the existing platform coded in. For example, I'm a PHP developer, and so I can take an existing PHP script and tweak it to my … |
 | C# can be used for both web development and non web development applications. To that end, while PHP is primarily used for web development, it can be executed from the command line as well. Basically we've adopted the tagging system as the new primary means of navigation here at DaniWeb, … |
| | It depends if you want to focus on long tail or short tail keywords: long tail means you have TONS and TONS of keywords, and each one gets a little traffic; short tail means you have a small handful of keywords that are really important to you. When going that … |

| | Check this out ... It's an overview of how DaniWeb recovered, as fully documented on Google's official webmaster forums: [url]http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Webmasters/thread?tid=517eb20afe76fe3d&hl=en[/url] Be sure to watch the recovery video and read the super long threads. Yes, they are SUPER long, but there are some valuable jewels buried within. |
 | Microsoft is giving up on IE for the Mac since Apple came out with their KHTML-based Safari browser. However, I doubt IE will leave the Windows platform.  |
 | Dreamweaver for design me thinks. |
 | Oh I had this problem with associative arrays in PHP myself recently. Let me see if I can find my remedy. Hold on.  |
| | Social media is incredibly difficult to determine a ROI or quantify. It is much more an intrinsic value ... like, any type of good press or bad press, or word of mouth. It is definitely super important, it cannot be overlooked (i.e. some businesses rely exclusively on word of mouth … |

| | But I think what Rik is proposing is that it might be a problem with your computer. It's worth doing a test using ethernet cable for a half hour and see if you experience the problem. This way we can rule that out. |
 | Because, after a lot of deliberation among the moderation team over many years, it was determined that 'shit' was not offensive enough a word to be censored. |
| | So you mean like what we do on this page?: http://www.daniweb.com/web-development/web-design-html-and-css/15 You need to use jQuery, yes. Here's our code. You will need to modify it for your own needs: <script type="text/javascript"> <!-- $(function() { var header = $('#static-header'); var body = $('#body'); var offset = header.offset().top; $(window).scroll(function() { var … |
 | Re: Floating Menus Thanks so much! I'm glad that you like it. Without going into too much detail, it is definitely not in the cards at this time, I'm afraid to say, to disable it as a profile option. However, I will add that the option currently only exists on navigation pages and … |
| | Odd, I don't think I've ever seen you without a cigar.  |
 | My two cents: * I would get an Intel. I haven't heard great things about AMD in quite a number of years. * A touchscreen for Windows 8 is amazing for tablets, but unnecessary for a desktop gaming PC. |
| | The very early workings of an API ... http://www.daniweb.com/api/documentation Any ideas churning?? |
| | I would choose side projects that both interest you but also strengthen your skills that will help advance your career. |
| | > I believe the site legally has to allow a option to delete all information (personal). Yes, we will not retain any personal information. Simply edit your profile and remove your personal details such as your full name, company, location, etc. Then, click the Permanently Delete Membership link that cereal …  |
| | Thanks!! :) It's a live process once the payment has been validated. It looks as if the system never promoted your account to a sponsor, either. Hmm ... I'll have to take a look into it, thanks :) It's kinda late tonight so I'll get right on this in the … |
| | I'm trying to debug my PayPal IPN code. Here is my PHP code: if ($this->input->post('payment_status') == 'Completed' AND in_array($this->input->post('txn_type'), array('web_accept', 'subscr_payment'))) { $query = 'cmd=_notify-validate&' . http_build_query($this->input->post()); $ch = curl_init(); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, 'https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr'); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, true); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $query); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true); $result = curl_exec($ch); curl_close($ch); if ($result == 'VERIFIED') … |

| | There's Microsoft Silverlight. But I would say it would be HTML5/CSS3 with a Flash fallback, yes. |
 | Re: new site > I believe that DaniWeb take "ownership" of posts so that they can legally store and manipulate them, however, someone from DaniWeb would have to officially confirm/deny this. Yes, that's true. However, and please don't quote me on this, but in the future this might be modified to change from … |
 | If your database is small enough (not more than a few megs in size) then you can upload an .sql file. However, I would not recommend doing this through phpMyAdmin's web-based interface for anything larger or you'll end up with timeout errors. |
| | DaniWeb has a mobile app in the works although nothing has been launched as of yet. There haven't been changes to the way the login form is generated so unfortunately I'm not sure why it no longer works on Android Mobile. I only have access to an iPhone. |
The End.
