[wdvltalk] Re: Broadband in the UK
Hi Jim, Does anyone in the UK have a recommendation for ADSL / Broadband. ideally I want to spend under £15 a month. Wouldn't we all :-) If you're happy with 128k you could look up Tiscali's new package, which I believe is £15/month - I've no idea how reliable it is though. ADSL-wise you could do a lot worse than Pipex's basic service which weighs in at something like £25/month but is really reliable and gives you 512k. Check out www.adslguide.org for more info on all the providers. You might also want to consider cable - companies like Telewest probably do quite reasonable deals on combined phone/TV/internet packages.

jac wrote: OK I'm gonna scream!!! this thing is driving me mad for the last 3 hours. Stephen responded: It looks to me like you're missing a step. This is all theory, because I've never had reason to send an attachment in an automated email, but... I'm pretty sure all that the script will have access to is what is on the server (or depending on your configuration, the local network). I believe you'll need to upload the document via a separate script, then point your cdosys routine at the local copy of this attachment, after which you could use fso to delete the file or just archive it, whichever you desire. Tim adds: You might consider looking at ASPUpload (www.aspupload.com) - it's an ASP component by Peter Persits that allows uploading files to either memory or hard drive. I've had good success uploading data and files to memory and then storing them in a database without writing anything to the drive...you could probably adapt that method to upload the attachment from the user to memory and attach it directly to the CDO email. It has a fully-functioning trial period that lets you set it up and test it before buying. Only problem is that you'll have to install it on the production server (some hosts already provide it).

[wdvltalk] Visibility and on click
Rita,
you can achieve what you want with a combination of divs and css I think,
make each block of text a link to a content div nested within a container
div which can be either below the links or to one side.
your div css would be something like this:
div.abstract {height: 340px; width:100%; line-height:15px;
overflow: hidden; background: #fff; }
the container div holds all the anchored divs which only display when the
link is activated.
note that they do not have to be absolutely positioned but must have a fixed
height which is equal or greater than the largest 'content' div

That's okay, the bit about so secure you can't use it was at least partially tongue in cheek as well. You could use it for a lot of things very nicely out of the box but the lockdown on the web server was pretty tight. You can't even run Windows Update without jumping through hoops to make it a trusted site. Part of my post was inspired because of Apple's callous attitude that you should expect to upgrade annually at $130+ a pop if you want security holes in their OS to be patched. Having spend $129 just a year ago to upgrade the OS on my G4 I wasn't planning on doing the same this year since I don't do that much on it other than test web sites. Cheryl D.

well both the html and css validate, and when I first tested it worked cross browser ( sigh) but on the IE issue, most problems with divs are caused by its implementation of the box model and can be overcome by using a 'containing' div incidentally it still looks ok in NN4 except that you end up with a long page with all the divs displaying one after the other, but the anchors should still take you to the right question. re Mozilla, I 'know' that there is a simple fix for this but it escapes me at the moment..a quick flick through my code snippets hasn't found it - time to visit the css_discuss wiki I think. there are other ways to achieve the same effect but I was trying for the simplest. www.WellingtonLive.co.nz - Original Message - From: Rita Crisafi [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, November 07, 2003 1:34 PM Subject: [wdvltalk] Re: Visibility and on click : sorry Rita, was in the middle of something else, : it would help when I give an example to make sure that it works, this does: : : : I was completely confounded because I wasn't able to get this to work : in my browser, but then I think there's a compatiblity issue with IE : 5 browsers? : : .

No, he's got a 2.4 GHz computer with 512mg ram. He can play solitaire to his heart's content while downloading in the background. Only thing he ties up is his telephone. Not too many people he knows want to chat after midnight. I just want him to get the danged patches installed so we quit getting these My computer keeps shutting down whenever I try to get online. My anti-virus quit working. My scanner doesn't show up (turned out to be unplugged). Sigh! Cheryl D.

[wdvltalk] Re: Visibility and on click
if I recollect what I did originally, the div should have a specific width
to be rendered correctly so here goes ( p.s. the display: block; should
not be critical ):

[wdvltalk] Re: now what about backward compatibility?
On Thursday, November 6, 2003, 12:27:07 PM, Rita Crisafi commented: RC AND...in a nutshell :-), what would I have to do if I was required to RC accomodate these old-browser users? Rita, your page degrades well in lynx and Netscape 3. It isn't pretty, but it's readable. You've coded it well to allow it to degrade because you've left everything in the order it should appear. An easy check for you to do is to simply view the pages you create without the style sheet to see what they look like. You will lose lines and color, but as long as you don't start seeing overlapping elements you have a site that probably can be viewed well in earlier browsers. RC But in the case of the document RC we've been looking at, wouldn't it make more sense to use a detect RC script and then actually point to different DOCUMENTS? where i could RC set up the page in tables? Yes, that fine for a SMALL site, but a lot of work for a large site or one where you expect to keep on adding content. It's better to simply assume that anyone who is using older generation browsers is going to be focused on content, not beauty, and simply make sure that the site is readable navigable. I recently revamped my 150 page + site to use CSS, and I did use browser-sniffing SSI code to pull up many of the older HTML 3 generation elements, so if you go to the site with an older browser you see the old site as well, but I have mixed feelings about it. I don't think I would bother with a new site. RC FINALLY, Does anyone have good clean browser detect javascript code RC to show me, I've looked around the net and I don't know enough about RC JS to tell if the code is good or junky. If you use javascript for browser detect, some older browsers will choke on the javascript - and of course it won't work for anyone who has turned off javascript on their browsers. There are some cleaner, non-browser detecting hacks you can use because of differing properties of different generations of browsers. For example, I don't believe that Netscape 4 recognizes the @import protocol for importing a style sheet, so you can set a very simple stylesheet for the site using the link rel=stylesheet convention, with the more complicated style sheet called up via @import. If you Google for stylesheet hacks or browser compatibility hacks you will find information on various approaches. There are mixed feelings on this -- CSS purists don't like hacks, because you are purposely creating nonstandard code to exploit the holes in non-CSS compliant browsers. There is no one way to do it - so you won't find an easy or consistent tutorial. But, especially for a site with a relatively simple layout, it can be a quick way to resolve stylistic conflicts. -Abigail -Abigail The WDVL Discussion List from WDVL.COM To Join wdvltalk, Send An Email To: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Send Your Posts To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To set a personal password send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the words: set WDVLTALK pw=yourpassword in the body of the email.
