Re: [WSG] Wamp, Accessibility, How To Reset Passwords In My Sql
Marvin, Although this goes way off topic for this forum, the localhost password you've got there should be "root" and the password "pwd". When the form asks for the server write "localhost", and if that fails use "host" and you should be in. There isn't a password for localhost, that is unless you've done a very strange install and going away from the wamp install lines. Good luck mate...

Re: [WSG] Century Gothic for web
Hi Again Lara, Sorry about my first post, I should have included this from Monotype Imaging, the owner's of Century Gothic, it's their free-online usage link for signing up to use Century Gothic for free on the web. http://webfonts.fonts.com/en-US Cheers, Doug Burt - Original Message - From: Lara Atechian To: wsg@webstandardsgroup.org Sent: Sunday, December 11, 2011 7:22 PM Subject: [WSG] Century Gothic for web Hi, I am working on re-designing a website, and will be using Century Gothic for headings.

Re: [WSG] Century Gothic for web
Hi Lara, Would depend where you got your Century Gothic font to begin with, usually they (the font foundry you got it from originally (it looks like the font was originally made and offered for sale by Monotype Imaging)) have permissions right up front on what usage is permissable. At this time the font is now 5 years old and being offered free for web use from what I could find out for you, but double checking can never hurt.

Re: [WSG] Help
Marvin, It looks like you screwed on your database permissions when setting up the sql request, or you haven't used the right database info, username or password on your script to access it with the sql request.

Marvin, Please remember to send us the url of the page you're having trouble with so that we can look at it. Don't assume that the list members keep a list of everyone's pages handy so that we can just jump up and go help them at the drop of a hat. Without including the right url, everytime you have an inquiry, we're lost. As for W3C's validator, it's not being picky, it's trying to teach you to use complete and finished coding so that you're sites pages will appear great in browser's people use, whether or not it uses JAWS or other assistive technology to do so...

Re: [WSG] internet explorer font names
Hey Marvin, RE: http://www.raulferrer.com/joe/html/ It's really important that you validate your site everytime you make any changes, any changes at all on your site. This it to insure that you're giving the browser's a chance to read everything that's on your site properly and avoid issues like you're running into right now. Here's links to some basic validator's for you (although there are others out there that you can purchase if you wish) that will do a pretty good job insuring that your code is valid. X/HTML Validation: http://validator.w3.org/ CSS Validation: http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/ Link Checker: http://validator.w3.org/checklink Once you have all your errors repaired and working properly validated, I bet your site work's great for you. But at least that way we have a chance to try and help you, without having to go through your site and double check to make sure you haven't made basic mistakes first. Good luck getting the code cleaned up and then we can go from there with you.
