    ITT Fined $100M For Illegal Exports

    So why didn't the air force bomb the 117 wreckage in Bosnia? Not true, France, the UK, and China have Hydrogen bombs as well. India/Pakistan/NK are fission only. Israel is probably hydrogen as well, and India could be ready to test an TN device soon. It's better to have an open...

    Is there any GOOD straight forward tutorial sites?

    Start with learning perl (llama book), when you get that figured out, move on up to the Perl Programming (Camel Book). Yes there are elements of humor in both and a bit of a history lesson but they help provide context as to why a computer/language does it one way when in your head it would be...

    Using imagemagick to on-the-fly resize

    PNG is a better format, 8 bits of alpha transparancy, 24-bit pallete (Gif can only have 256 colors per image), better compression algo (GZip). Now that a workaround for IE alpha transparancy is known, there's no reason to use gif unless you've got to support ancient browsers (Pre NS4/IE4)

    Using imagemagick to on-the-fly resize

    Yeah, when the unisys patents expired they added the RLE compression code back into the tree. GD could be made to make uncompressed gifs during the patent ban, but it was a hassle for no real benefit.

    Using imagemagick to on-the-fly resize

    GD is/was the gold standard for image manipulation, but it is a bit of a troublemaker when it comes to making sure it is compiled and installed correctly and PHP is compiled and installed correctly. IM works out of the box in most cases, but it sometimes lacks to power of GD IMO.

    Looking for Mobo with most PCI slots

    Looking for Mobo with most PCI slots

    You're looking at multiple PCI busses at that point, maybe the sun/newisys opteron boxes where there are "daughterboards" that have their own PCI busses. To be fair though, WindowsXP only supports a 3x3 grid natively, which 2 of these plus a AGP or PCI 2 header will cover no problem. At...

    PHP script question

    In perl their are good modules for doing things like that based on the LWP code. PHP has curl interfaces that can be compiled in, I'd start digging through their documentation on the curl extension and see if that can help.

    .htaccess anti-hotlink problem

    PHP newline

    That is exactly why your code failed, ' " and ` (single-quote, double quote, and backtick) all have different semantic meanings for a piece of code. Oreilly's PHP book can give you the gory details, but it is largely inheirited from perl's quoting syntax.

    That's the joy (and pain) of IMAP, everything always exists, server-side, a client (SqMail, OE, Thunderbird) gets a peek at the current state. Are you accessing the account as IMAP through OE or as POP, if it is in IMAP mode it may be a little smarter on what the relationship between the...
