You should mod the car as well so that you can go to car shows such as (I don't know if they have this in America) Max Power shows... only with adverts instead of a mean looking paint job :P
At the moment I've only got:
Xbox
PS2
Xbox 360 (the better one with an extra wireless pad and wifi)
Nintendo DS Lite (black)
To list all the one's I can remember owning (probably more than this though):
Comadore 64
NES
SNES
Gameboy
Gameboy Pocket

Surprisingly, Paint and similarly low end graphics tools are better for some tasks than Photoshop, Paint Shop Pro or GIMP.
Sprite graphics, for example, are easily made with Paint because it does exactly what you'd need... A grid, a pencil …
I use YouTube a fair bit, but I've only just got Flash to play fair with Firefox 2 by installing Flash 9 Beta by hand (the Linux version of Flash 9 is still beta).
If you want howto's, there's also VideoJug, a movie dedicated to user created howto …
I'm not sure if JavaScript has it's own direct include function, but it's possible to hook another JS file into a page dynamically using the DOM (good) or document.write() (not so good).
This would basically entail creating another <script> in…

On that model Skyline, the rear headlight shields are standard as that's a R34 GT-R, not the newer model Skyline, which has seemingly split from the GTR models (which have their own concept car simply called the Nissan GTR).

Like I said, if they are using the Apache module, mod_php over CGI, it might not be possible to do that command with straight up CRON as the module version of PHP isn't available from the command line \ terminal \ console \ whatever you want…
Magnets might not be the best idea really.
The problems are:
1: Magnets + electronics = Oh dear!
2: Magnets can, er fall off if they aren't strong enough to withstand the forces placed on them by you driving the car.
3: You might have issues with ge…
If your host is using mod_php and doesn't support PHP via CGI, CRON won't be able to run the job as the module can't be executed via the command line.
Also, is that the whole of the command you're using?
CRON jobs usually follow this format:[minute]…

Running in the rain gets you wetter than walking (proved by Mythbusters).
Usually, if I'm not working, I'll either be playing on my 360 (currently playing NFS: Carbon), doing stuff on my PC or, if nobody else is in at the time, I usually j…
If you don't want the box shown by default, you simply change it from:

To:

I suppose that with something like a Dell Axim which has a high quality screen, this might be usable, though I don't see much point in having a PDA based drawing tool other than the generic writing apps since you're never going to get the same abili…
I'm just not a very chatty person and I'm much better with a keyboard.
It's also a fair bit harder to say code than it is to type it, and coding makes up a fair amount of the stuff I do online.
I have a mobile phone if I need to ring anyone (ok, so …
If you use scriptaculous effects, it's possible to make a page where the user can show and \ or hide parts of the page with AJAX.
This is what I'm using, and it works fairly well:

<script src="/jav…
I have Skype installed, but I've never actually bothered to use it as I'd have to actually... you know... talk to people :P
IRC and forums are more my kind of thing.
There's always the physical side of things.
If you plan on leaving a laptop anywhere, something like a Kensington lock will keep people from lifting it and running for the hills (a lot of laptops have small holes on the side for these things).
There…
Well, you could either parse when the page leads (post parsing) or before you insert data into the database (pre parsing).
In terms of ease of use, post parsing is the simplest as you only need to store the data once with no reverse parsing (HTML to…
All you have to do to get that example working is to get the prototype.js file and include it in your page with a standard JS include tag such as:
[html]<script src="/javascripts/prototype.js" type="text/javascript"></sc…
Here's a bit of code I've just ripped from something I made.
It uses the prototype JS library and makes a form submit via AJAX rather than by normal methods, though it will fall back on a standard method should the user not have JavaScript enabled:

If the design is thin enough, resolutions aren't a big issue as the main portion of the design should have enough room to show well.
Another thing to do is to use percentile dimensions.
That way, you end up with something which should genera…

2: Three column designs aren't just overrated, they're near enough endangered as designers find that 2 column designs usually provide enou…

Disabling the print screen key is done with JavaScript, but it's frowned upon and easy to beat because, like the other options, it's just JavaScript.
This would only really function if the user had JS enabled and had the browser in focus (t…

3 letter domain names are commonly used to offer services such as URL redirection.
