[wdvltalk] RE: [OT] freezing in MySQL
Not so 'Aha...' Still freezing.I have removed all the tables except the controlling 'mysql'.Do I need to reinstall the whole bundle of progams (Easyphp with Apache, MySQL and PHP)?Or just MySQL. Or is there another answer? If, with phpMyAdmin, I open a database I can, variably, open none, one, two, or three tables; but the next table starts to show a limping attempt and then freezes. I can only get back into the databases by restarting the machine. Programs outside the local server do not appear to be affected The local website, Blog and ghostshop all appear to be running (though now moaning about the lack of databases).

[wdvltalk] RE: SharePoint as an intranet
Howard and ravenstudio2, thanks for your comments. I've used STS before as collaboration software and was pretty happy with it in that mode, but I agree that it just doesn't seem suited for informational sites. Sean, I know it's expensive and overkill. :-) Since I'm growing wiser with age, I'm not commenting further at this point on that particular detail. :-) :-) But thanks a bunch for the CM links, I'll be looking at them today. I've hardwired a website for content management on our current site that feeds a database but am looking for other ideas as well. Will - I'm mailing you offlist. Thanks for the info.

[wdvltalk] Re: Object and embed problems
Paul: Additionally, if your friend wants to be really swish he could write his own DTD for his XHTML pages making all invalid markup valid again!! Got that idea from the discussion board on that "Flash Satay" article and could well be a viable route to take if you don't fancy ripping out the existing Flash embed markup...

[wdvltalk] Re: Object and embed problems
Hi Paul The problem you're facing is that the syntax for used for the Flash player (and pretty much everything else that uses the & pairing) is not XHTML compliant and will never validate. Have a look at this article on ALA: http://www.alistapart.com/articles/flashsatay/ If your friend is 100% sure on being XHTML compliant on his Flash page then have a read of that article (there are issues though). IMO, although the code needed to embed a Flash player in a page is a monster, it's not necessary to be XHTML compliant here - if you've only got the Flash movie on that page then you haven't got any semantics or structure/presentation issues to worry about, whereas if you've got a lot more content in addition to the Flash movie (see Macromedia's site for an example of this) then as long as your content is fully compliant then you'll be OK in rendering, semantics, parsing, etc anyway. The "Flash Satay" is a good one though so read on.

[wdvltalk] Object and embed problems
Hi List, A friend of mine works on MAC and needs to create pages that are XHTML compliant. I told him to use the w3c.org xhtml validator to make sure that his pages are ok. He has the following code http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflas h.cab#version=6,0,29,0" width="191" height="118" hspace="0" vspace="0" align="top" > http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"; bgcolor="#FF"> When run through the validator, it says error at line 35 (which is line at which object tag starts). It says that src is not a valid attribute. If I comment the object element, everything works fine. It validates and the flash shows on my IE6/XP. It still validates on his side (fortunatelty :) but the flash doesn't render on his IE5.5/MacOSX Any hints, I'm looking on the microsoft web site to see if there's any limitation of IE5.5 for MacOSX on that issue.

[wdvltalk] Chasing a US invoice from the UK
Hi list, I'm in need of some advice, particularly from US-based listees. The IT support company in which I'm a partner recently did some work for a US-based server manufacturer (one of their UK customers needed a motherboard replacement, and as the manufacturer doesn't have any UK staff themselves we did it on their behalf). It was a quick job and as such a small invoice - the equivalent of about $400 - but it's been outstanding for some time, they haven't paid it yet, and they're not responding to our emails :-( Can anyone suggest any reasonably pain-free methods we could use to recover this? If they were in the UK we'd take them to a small claims court but it seems unlikely that it would be worth the effort to use the US equivalent. Any ideas, either on- or off-list, would be much appreciated!
