    Frustratingly Frustrating

    Sorry if some of these are blindingly obvious but some of them dumfounded me when I moved a few years back 1) Control Panel is 'Apple logo in top right' / system preferences 2) Application preferences are usually( 'Application name' in the bar across the top and then 'Preferences' or Cmd+...

    Tuition fees

    It can also be a massive issue for post-graduates. As you can't get a fee loan for a second degree (for example if one wanted to do medicine after an undergraduate degree). Before, you had to pay £3k out of your own pocket per year which was tough, but manageable (I had a flatmate who did...

    Yeah git clone would work, I've always just done it manually!

    Maintaining website code with Git?

    If you have SSH access to the servers then this isn't actually too hard, there are a few things you need to make sure though 1) Your source code will work on the server. Sounds obvious but your code needs to work 'as is' on the server and any custom config files must be gitignored (including...

    How to incorporate this? (javascript/php/html)

    The simplest thing to do would be to wrap your javascript in a function <script type="text/javascript"> function checkPrice(){ var price = 105; ... return; } </script> and then on a onclick handler to your html button. <input type="button" type="button" id="buttonenter"...

    What's the best 'drag and drop' website creator software ?

    Squarespace (hosted) is supposed to be quite good. Not sure if it'll be too template-y but it is very drag and drop :)

    Colorbox - Help!

    I think your error is as follows: $(".thumbCb").colorbox(...) This code is initialising a colorbox on the css class thumbCb. Colorbox works by (1) setting up click handers on the relevant css classes AND (2) showing the colorbox Therefore all you need to do is $("...

    Keeping a record of my spendings.. Mac app

    I've been using YNAB (You need a budget), more of a specific workflow than a generic app but it's very good! They have a free trial so you can at least have a play with it.

    CMS recommendations - advice – discussion

    Concrete5 sounds like it would be a good fit - not used it in a while but very user friendly and gives you a huge amount of layout flexibility through a simple interface

    Client-friendly CMS

    I've tried a fair few but I would highly recommend Symphony CMS. It's a bit of a learning curve on the developer end but is incredibly flexible when you get used it.

    random number /ticket generator free draw thing

    Exactly what I was about to say. In your previous post you said that the data mustn't be able to identify the user - if the email address and survey data is stored separately then there is no way to do so

    Why can't Siri tell me the time? But Voice Control can?

    To tell the time Siri needs access to your location (go to Settings/Location Services) and map sure Siri is enabled in the list of apps.

    php: long variables with other variables which needs to be sent by email

    If I've understood correctly, you're just looking to avoid code duplication between your html form page and your email generator code? If this is the case then one option would be to encapsulate the above code in a function that returns a string that can then be outputted to generate your...

    Help me with some sliding divs in jQuery

    It almost feels like cheating in a way! Many times I've just looked at code and thought that it shouldn't be this easy:D

    Help me with some sliding divs in jQuery

    Just a slight modification to Tripnologist's code so that it does the animation sequentially: // Else close open divs and then open selected div else { $('#slideDivs > div:visible').slideUp('fast',function(){ $('#slideDivs div:eq('+ index +')').slideDown(); }); }

    Product Catalogue !?

    I currently use symphony cms for this kind of work (and most of my work). It's incredibly flexible and more of a framework but at the same time allows you to develop complicated product catalogues. The only downside is that it is a very steep learning curve initially as you need to learn xlst...

    Google Analytics vs TSOhost Statistics

    Does every page of your website have the analytics code on? Also do you have any files that people could be downloading with a direct link so don't get tracked?

    DELETED_23244

    It's nice and simple and very good for a first website. I'd say that I find it a little too simple, it just feels like it's missing something. I'm not sure exactly what but here are a few suggestions that you could try: Add a bit more colour - the grey and red is maybe a bit too minimal...
