I know this is an older tutorial, but now that I'm all about simplicity in my trials and errors of creating mobile versions of some websites, just wanted to say thanks for some of the ideas that just came to mind, reading this.

(not sure where this should go since it's not really a website security only issue?) Can someone explain to me exactly what is going on with it? (I'm not a Java coder) but from what I understand, during the installation of the new version, it tests the existing Security Manager in your browser or pl...

About 5 years ago we setup a test forum to test all of our changes before deploying on the live site for one of the game sites I admined. We turned off all captcha and everything else for the site, and allowed posting. In the space of about 2 years the board had over 1 million users and about 10 mi...

Yep that is expected, you need to apply a lot of anti bot measures to get this number reduced but stuck with it in one way or another. But you can reduce the figure a lot tho. this is nothing strange, add honeypot and math functions/CAPTCHA Holla if you got any questions but i would assume that is ...

glad to help.. one other thing I noticed is that on the News page, the code for the news page in the menu is "news.html" instead of "index.html" so when you are the news page and click the news tab on the menu, it tries to go to "http://www.epicgaming.com.au/News/news.html&q...

I know this is an older thread and too late to help the OP, but it did make me think about an update from one of my favorite photographers (Trey Ratcliff) not long ago. He said that he was asked to leave Grand Central Station because he didn't have a permit for his tripod. No kidding, it's ok to tak...

I'm American, but I'm also southern and I'm sure if I had been there and heard someone say "I'm American" in that way, I would have yelled back up to them "Then ACT like one"!
Seriously, we're not all like that

It was from some gaming rig build site. It also had liquid cooling and some SSDs. It was quite silly. Was it maybe alienware? We had a custom build from them about 4 or 5 years ago and the total (with taxes and a $100 backpack for it) came to right at $2K. The kid loved it, but it was over priced i...

The other night I was up working on some code when I got an email from godaddy that one of my databases was in violation for being over limit. Because the website in question is one that I use just for testing purposes, I was a little confused and so logged in to take a look. Seems a couple of years...

Once you get WordPress set up, installing a theme is very easy. There are a lot of free themes out there, but I would advise against using the word "Free" as a search word when looking for them. Just using 'wordpress themes" (or wordpress templates), etc, you will find some good sites...

I'm working on my first mobile site (placed in a subdomain of the main site) so I'm not experienced with them at all yet.. but for the time being, I'm just using script in the header to call a different css depending on the browser size detected. I'm sure I will find an easier way as I learn, but ju...

If I understand, you want the background to not change when the page is scrolled past the bottom of the image? If so, you should change background-repeat: repeat-y; to background-repeat:no-repeat; (that, along with adding the properties below in your css at the body): background-position:top center;...
