He's using windows 98 as a server environment... oh dear god...
The only way he coud do worse would be to either use 95, which would be laughable if he managed to actually get it going or ME, which would crash as soon as he turned it on.

Apparenly, there's problems with some browsers not supporting the MIME type XHTML 1.1 and above are supposed to use.
XHTML 1.0 will happily validate with the standard text/html MIME type, but XHTML 1.1 is supposed to use application/xhtml+xml which …
I don't use tables anymore... ever.
CSS is so much better as it's easy to use, it cuts bandwidth usage and you can make things like the CSS zen garden with it (if you have seen it and still doubt CSS, you need to stop using the internet).
I can have…
It depends really.
I mainly do work for myself, but I will sometimes do work for others.
I mostly so work for people I know though and I don't usually charge anything.
I have done templates in the past and before my brotherinlaw stopped running his …
Looks decent, but I'd probably go with a slightly darker text colour as it'd make it more readable, but that's just me (I'm patially colour blind... which is fun).
XHTML 1.1 isn't really reccomended yet since some browsers have problems with it appa…
If you make a good script that people are likely to want, they'll need to know where it came from.
If the script has a link to your site, people who see it and would like to use it would probably find it easier to use that link than to search the ne…
I have a WiFi box set up so I can access the net through my PC or any other 802.11b capable device.
The WiFi router is connected to my BT ASDL modem \ router which is also connected to my dads PC :/
This gets rid of the half a mile of cable I would …
The last paid host I used was powweb.
They were brilliant and had no downtime while I was with them (their servers are set up so that if one goes down or has too much load on it, their systems will send the user to another server with your site on i…
I can't afford to fork out for paid hosting when I'm not going to use it for anything that's likely to make me anything in return.
If I developed a product I could sell, or something I knew would be popular enough to draw people to my site which I c…
Windows XP Home, SuSE Linux, Puppy linux and Knoppix (puppy and knoppix are liveCD versions, so they aren't installed on my HDD).
I wouldn't mind a Mac, but I don't have the cash (I can't even afford the new Xbox which I plan on getting at the momen…

Using photoshop doesn't make you sound snobby, it's just the question of wether or not it's a legal version which makes you sound snobby.
I have PS4, but don't use it as I'm happy with my current editor and I find Photoshop too fiddly (a sha…
I'm not going to say that it looks bad, because I'm assuming you are more bothered about how well it works rather than how shiny it looks, which isn't a bad thing by any means as usability should always be a priority.
It displays relatively well in …
Erm, how do we know what your skills are if you don't show us some examples of your previous work?
Offering plain HTML is all fine and dandy, but CSS, XHTML and a few simple graphics would be better, more efficient and actually worth the money.
I, l…
Hello.
Good to see that you guys know each other offline since it means you're more likely to be real friends rather than "hi, you do things for me and I don't mock you" internet friends :/
I am so envious since most of the people I know a…
Oh... I recently started using Opera 8 and unlike other browsers (I'm a firefox fan) it doesn't display the name of file you have open when viewing the source :/
My mistake...
I wasn't trying to be harsh, it just bugs me when people make shiny grap…
Without restrictions, the Internet would be full of more usless and offencive crap than it is now.
Even with regulation we have problems with terrorist websites, porn and such, so what do you think it'd be like if there was nobody to stop such conte…
Usually, learning HTML is a very good idea if you plan on doing commercial web design.
Your code has some horrible coding flaws such as a lack of a doctype declaration and two (yeah, two) head sections, one of which is in the body section, meaning i…

Tables and Iframes are two different things.
Iframes are inline frames, meaning they can be placed almost anywhere and don't need to be used in a frameset.
Tables are a method of formatting tabular data such as comparison charts.
To sound ho…
YAY!
Sharman Networks (who are supposed to own KaZaA) finally got what they deserved.
The only P2P software I'd prefer them not to take to court is BitTorrent, simply because it was designed for legitimate use and many companies such as Mandriva (fo…
The overall design is fairly decent, especially when you consider that most pre-made site scripts don't always go for compliant code (it's HTML 4.01 valid, but not XHTML 1.0... because you aren't using XHTML).
Load times could be reduced using PHP's…
As far as I am aware, GML is just a form of XML.
There's a lot of information available on working with XML and PHP, so it might be useful to look that up on google.
XML is pretty straight forward since you can define your own tags and this is why i…
LCD screens use liquid crystal, a material which isn't technically solid, liquid or gas.
Liquid crystal changes it's state when a current is passed through it (haven't tried a rasin yet though) and that's what causes the image to be displayed.

I was doing an I.T. course, but things got screwed up and I didn't get to finish it.
I'd go do a web design one after work but they make you use dreamweaver... UGH!
College > school.
By far my favourite feature is that if I have a page open when I close Opera, it opens it automatically.
It's like setting your home page, but you can do it with multiple sites.
This is infinitely great for people who use a lot of sites or who are t…
