When I first set up the Tomcat 5.5 server on my tinkering box, I can into security issues with getting the dumb programs to connect to the MySQL server - even on localhost. Thanks to the Java community, I found my answer an answer was provided for me.
It’s old news that Microsoft is going after GNU/Linux and their users with patent threats, but why? I’m going to review the theories as to why the software giant is making the moves as well as voice my opinion on what’s going to happen.
Since I just got my TV tuner card less then a week ago, I have been learning a thing or two on some video file manipulation. Creating a time lapse was something I wanted to create from my storm chasing video, and this was how I did it.
My other favorite thing to do besides programming and computers would be watching the weather. Over the last couple seasons, I have gone storm chasing with a couple friends. One of them is studying to be a meteorologist, and we’ve been able to track down and catch storms pretty well. Although we have yet to see a tornado, we have ran into pretty much everything else including high winds, hail, lightning, and very heavy rain.

This tool converts HTML code to a format in which it can be copied into eBay’s new SYI form w/o it messing with the HTML.
I have been avoiding using it as it always screwed up my HTML when I copied it out of an HTML editor, and it wasn’t because I was using code that shouldn’t be there. It was because I was using some inline CSS. Since we are now forced to use it, I have found a solution after some trial and error. I realized it was because I had tabs and extra spaces in the code (I don’t get it either). All I had to do to fix that was take out all the extra white space. If your don’t know how to do this and are having troubles with the new form, try running your html and copy the reformatted code into the description editor. You will hopefully have better luck.

Being a webmaster for over two years, I have found a wealth of free software such as editors, scripts, etc. to make your coding life easier! I have used all these scripts and programs when designing and maintaining my own websites.
Through my years on the Internet & using Windows, I have found tons of useful software that is also free. All of the software in here have been used by me personally. I also recommend checking out The Open CD for more ideas. Enjoy!
Forums (message boards, etc) can be a great way to promote your company and/or website. As most of us know, forums need moderation to protect it against spammers, trolls, etc. Although moderation is necessary, the forums need to still maintain a level of transparency and integrity. The point of me writing this entry is that I came across a site’s support forums that left me so biased, I decided to stop using this piece of software altogether.
Is your phpBB board being overridden by spam? Most people may recommend that you go to their support forums and install a couple modifications, but what if they don’t work? The answer to that question is simple. All common solutions will not work. If someone puts out a common solution, the spam bots will adapt to it. Spam bots have adapted to captacha images, email verification, and other common defenses. Fortunately, the answer is simple, all you have to do is be unique. I will give you one tip on how you can do that and keep the spam bots at bay.
