I have a bunch of unused space to build a website. The front page layout is almost done. Need to optimize some rollovers and slices, and get the page to load quicker. Anybody here have experiance in xml? |

Fortran for doing cnc looping tapes for a nc strippit machine? dream weaver does html and can convert to the new xml. Just wondering if I really need to do xml or just html for now and convert later if its required. Right now I'm more concerned with the free cells that are still between some of the text and thumbnails. I also want to use 1024x768 as the page size. |

XML was designed mainly for data sharing, such as developing RSS feeds for example. If you don't have that in mind, then I wouldn't bother with it for now. And FORTRASH? Man, that takes me back. Card decks, in those flimsy cardboard trays that if you dropped em, it would take forever to 'recompile' the stack. I even remember programming in Basic on a TRS-80 from Radio Shack which had a cassette tape for storage media...  Steve |

I used to work graveyard doing programming for circuit control boxes. I took the blueprint, measured it and input it on a loop tape, Install the tape on the nc strippit, set up all the tap and dies, put on a piece of sheetmetal, do a test run and measure the output piece. If all went well, then a production run could start. Man I'm old! |

Gee that is old... but I should talk - one of the first jobs I had was programming an HP-1000 from the front panel, entering the code word by word (16 bits) on toggle switches (1 switch per bit). Then stepping thru the code to debug it. Spent many a nite just trying to get the driver I wrote to interface with a mylar tape reader. Would pull targeting data from the mylar tape and upload it into a bench test guidance system for a Pershing II missile, which then ran a flight simulation. But the real missiles were more fun - I love stuff that goes booom!  |

why XML? Isn't going to gain you anything, though I don't know what you are doing with it. HTML works just fine; my whole site is HTML Marc yamahaki wrote: Fortran for doing cnc looping tapes for a nc strippit machine? dream weaver does html and can convert to the new xml.

Cool on your site marc. I'm putting one up to host racing video's and pics, plus some piano music I do. Also performance education for the mechanically impaired who want to get more hp and better suspension for there rides. Will also post all wera, ama, nesba, sst, and scca events. For the racer in all of us. |

This thread is gonna make me cry. I am in the beginning stages of starting my own website. I have absolutely no knowledge in this little venture of mine. I've started reading a book on website building. So far I'm in chapter one which discusses registering your domain and the safeguards one needs to implement. Yeah, I probably should have read that before I registered my domain. I started reading this thread and it might as well have been written in Aramaic. Ow well. Hope to see your page sometime soon. |

Yeah, I probably should have read that before I registered my domain. Photoshop has a full tutorial on website design. go through that to design buttons and get familiar with rollovers, slices,tween frames and cells. Its very straight forward and image ready will write the html for you. Dreamweaver 8 is more advanced. But what you do in photoshop you can run it in explorer to see how it looks and reacts. The only other thing to get familiar with is layers. Thats also very straight forward.Once the site is done, then you can upload it. I never put up a site piece by piece. I always finish it 1st. If theres a problem after uploading, its only a few clicks away from being fixed. Always keep a duplicate of all of your buttons and layers.hand6.gif |

I'm shutting down for tonight. I have 4 hours of physical therapy in the morning. Then 2 more days of it this week. Then it gets more intense for the next month. |

Thanks steve. Regular pt has been finished, all though there are exersizes I do everyday at the house. Since the new fusion has taken, workmans comp has to attempt to get me to my previous work state. Of course that isn't going to happen. At best I have 40% movement. My own goal isn't theres but works within there program and thats to get back to road racing. So the weights and cardio start today. |

Hope you stick to the home exercises. Unfortunately thats something am bad at, will do the home exercise while am going thru the PT, but they kinda fade away with time. But this last time I did get a nice home torture kit - a portable neck traction device. That thing is great - will do 15 minutes in it every now and then and feel great....:cool: yamahaki wrote: Thanks steve.

No traction for me since I'm fused from c3 to c6. But they did give me a dual mode estem unit with 8 leads. |

Ouch.. Well I have been trying to avoid the fusion surgery, so far so good. My problems are C5-6 and C6-7. And I do like those stim units... maybe a little too much...:shock: yamahaki wrote: No traction for me since I'm fused from c3 to c6. But they did give me a dual mode estem unit with 8 leads. |

Have you had a Mylogram on the discs? A MRI misses alot of things like bone spurs and nerve impingment. I'm doing everything I can to avoid having c7 done. |

Nope.. just a crap load of MRIs C, T and L spine... over and over... had em done in an open unit (dont like being folded into the regular MRIs like a burrito) - not the best of resolution. yamahaki wrote: Have you had a Mylogram on the discs?

Just do the mylogram. Its alittle uncomfortable with the contrast and staying flat for a day but well worth it. If I hadn't had one, I would be paralized now. |

Thanks for the advice guys. I don't have photoshop but will look into getting it. Good luck with your workouts. Not sure what happened to you. Doesn't sound like much fun. But, you're alive and that's all that really matters. |
