My site's "mirror" - 7:18 pm
Site Issue , Web Hosting  -  poster DaRen

Ever wonder how my site will look like without the advertisements ?? checkout http://ahkuan.01webspace.com. The coolest thing about this hosting company, for people who signs up for free plan, they allow you to place the advertisement ANYWHERE you like. On top of that, they've got a few banner size for you to choose :O It's almost perfect site to me, except they don't provide raw access log for free planners..

ps: obviously, the "mirror" thing is a joke... ;)

Hosting wish list - 2:02 pm
Personal , Web Hosting  -  poster DaRen

I've compiled a wish list, contains a list of features I'm looking for when choosing a hosting company. It can be a check list when I'm going for paid hosting or even it can become a reference or guide to you if you're seeking for hosting plans/companies.

View my hosting wish list.

Redirection on my site - 12:16 am
Browser , Bug , Site Issue , Web Hosting  -  poster DaRen

Oh my god... the Shout box's redirection isn't working in IE 6. I just notice it after my dad told me about this... Before this, nobody encounter any problem ??? Or nobody is surfing my site using IE (impossible) ??? Please report any problem, error or weird CSS rendering and let me know which browser you're using. I can't test my site with all the browsers... takes too much time !

*FIXED*
I made 2 mistakes on the shoutbox redirection script. However the redirection problem in comment posting part is cause by the advertisement codes inserted by the hosting server. They're using window.onload to call their javascript and I'm using the <body onload> to do my redirction, that's why redirection isn't working, they just use my window.onload WITHOUT telling me...hehe... So I remove the onlaod inside the <body> tag and place under their code and it works.

Cause of problem [ Hide ]
[ Highlight ] [ Text ]
<body onload="my_redirect()">
<!-- start of server advertisemt -->
<script type="text/javascript">
    window.onload=their_function()
</script>
<!-- end of server advertisemt -->

Solution [ Hide ]
[ Highlight ] [ Text ]
<body>
<!-- start of server advertisemt -->
<script type="text/javascript">
    window.onload=their_function()
</script>
<!-- end of server advertisemt -->
<script type="text/javascript">
    window.onload=my_redirection()
</script>


Last thing I want to say is, Opera is working fine even there's 2 onload calling, I bet it will work with 3 or more onload inside a script. IE and firefox just can't cope with the extra onload and failed. Opera rulez !

Seeking for greater hosting space - 3:29 pm
Site Issue , Web Hosting  -  poster DaRen

I've abandoned my site for almost two weeks from last post. My storage is reaching the 100Mb quota, so I switched to other hosting and test their features. Among the hosting companies I tried, obviously the current hosting company remains to be my best option. One of the hosting company, WorldFreeWeb.com provides 1G of storage, greater control, free email account etc, but due to its amateur "support team", I decided to stay with current one. I guess I'll just have to cut down the images to save some space but eventually I'll still reaches the 100Mb quota, by then, I hope I'm able to find a better hosting.

Time zone! Oh come on... - 2:43 am
Bug , PHP , Site Issue , SQL , Standards , Web Hosting  -  poster DaRen

I'm tired of dealing with time zone thing on this server... all my blog entries and calendar don't work out like what I expected... so there's the conversation between me and 100Webspace support team:
Quote:
31 October 2005
Me: Hi. I've noticed that PHP is using GMT+2 time zone but MySQL is set to use GMT+3 time zone. On top of that, apache log is using GMT+3 time zone. Can the time zones be standardized ?
Support: Finding a solution of your problem requires a consultation with our administrators. I have forwarded the issue to them and we will send you our answer as soon as we receive their instructions. If you have any additional questions, do not hesitate to ask. Meanwhile just wait for our next response.
Me: Hi. Thanks for replying. I'll wait for the next reply.
Support: We will contact you when we have solution about this issue.
01 November 2005
Me: Hi. Just wondering hows the progress.
Support: Our administrators haven't replied yet, I will remind them about this issue.
07 November 2005 (a week later...)
Support: The server time is now correct, sorry for the delay.
11 November 2005
Me: (revived) *geez* ... *checking back the access log*, found that the admin already response to it and standardize all the timezone on 31 October as soon as I made the post, but some how the reply from support team reaches me a week later...but at least they still reply, ain't that a good thing ? ;)

Shouldn't they take care of this in early stage when server is set up ?

Shoutbox is opened ! - 1:12 pm
Site Issue , Site Updates , Web Hosting  -  poster DaRen

The shoutbox is in the navigation menu on your left hand side if you cant find it. I've always wanted to code a shoutbox and it's in my TO-DO list since I started my site long ago. But since it's not the most important thing, it's dragged until recently I begin to lay my hands on it.

The shoutbox is embeded inside a IFRAME...so...? SO I DIDN'T EXPECT ANOTHER BANNER WILL SHOW UP INSIDE THE IFRAME TOO !!! The banner there is making the shoutbox and me looking stupid...grrr... angry whatever...anyway, like the commenting system, it's implemented with some simple abuse-protection. You can only post a new shout message 1 min after the previous shout of yours, double posting is not allowed too.

ps: design and layout are "stolen" from ShoutMix, however, all the codes are written by myself, so the copyright thing ? duh, you decide...
