I want Cpanel and Fantastico Thank you!
Funny, I was just looking at hostgator. I’ll keep that in mind.
Do you know of any other hosts that use Cpanel. I currently know of hostgator.com and fastnext.
I’m trying to create a onepage document for our business on how to install and set up the newest, 2.51 version of Wordpress with your own domain where your host uses cPanel and Fantastiko. Wordpress’s own documentation is too complex, so please don’t just copy and paste that. 10 points to the first person to explain this in your own concise words.
***REVISION!!!
“Site Name” setting at 3:15 should be set to match your company or domain name. This value is used when members of your site receive emails from from your site, including welcome emails. You can also set this manually at any time after installation in Administration:
Site - Global Configuration - Site Settings - Server
Also - go to Site - Global Configuration - Site Settings - Site and configure the Meta Description and Meta Tags right away as it takes weeks for google to index these values. Meta Description is the summary shown on google results, and Meta Tags are keywords to help your site get indexed.
You might have to manually configure the FTP file system access layer after install if you have errors when trying to install templates. Tutorial here:

If you run into any problems, I suggest watching my tutorial on how to install Joomla on a FREE 000webhost website; If you can install it there, you can install it anywhere:

Or, if your provider has Fantastico (or similar auto-installer), you can auto-install Joomla, but you might not be getting Joomla 1.5 that way. Tutorial here:

Hi, since the add-on domain shows up on the public_html of my site, where is the “public_html” area of my add on domain?
What I can see inside are only 2 directories:website and cgi.bin. Any help would be really appreciated thanks!
I’ve searched on the internet and in Dreamweaver help, but I can’t find clear instructions on how to make a MySQL database. Can anyone help?
Linux and Windows share many characteristics. For example, most people have little interest in knowing how they work. These operating systems make the computer available for the applications that people want to apply; such as running an Internet server, browsing the Internet, creating and accessing data bases, writing programs, playing music, or, or, or. These tasks are coordinated by the operating system and require specialized programs that drive hardware efficiently and correctly. We’ll talk about Linux’s closely integrated “friends” and compare them to the similar but oh so different Microsoft offerings.
The Linux group is called LAMP, an acronym standing for Linux, Apache, MySql, and PHP. There is no similar Microsoft acronym for their set of interacting products. Could that be a symptom of their relatively low level of integration? In contrast Linux is closely integrated with the other LAMP components. In a sense these companions grew up together. Improvements to one component are easily transmitted to the others. These programs are all Open Source meaning that the actual code for all components is readily available. When a problem such as a security breach occurs (don’t let anybody tell you there are no security breaches in Linux and friends) people work on the problem and may post corrections rapidly. Now let’s look at the other LAMP components.
Apache is a highly regarded web server. It has been the most popular web server on the Internet since April, 1996. Believe me, if Microsoft with its virtually unlimited resources cannot dislodge Apache from the top of the pack this software must be doing a lot of things right. Of the four LAMP components Apache is the one that non-specialists are least likely to try to learn. But if you want to play with it, guess how much it costs. You can download a version which will run under Windows but it is unlikely to contain the full functionality. At the time of this writing the Windows version of Apache has some problems concerning its cryptographic functions. Apache is undergoing constant development; its new features, security enhancements, and bug fixes will be available first on the Open Source (LAMP) version. And then filter down to the Windows version.
MySQL is the most popular Open Source Database Management System. The MySQL Community Server is free. The more powerful MySQL Enterprise Server starts at $595 per server per year, a very reasonable price for a commercial product. Microsoft’s competitive database management system is Microsoft SQL Server. Licensing of this software is fairly complicated and believe me, costs a lot, lot more than does MySQL Enterprise Server. Microsoft often makes you pay for purchasing the server and client software and then pay annual server licenses and client licenses for system access.
MySQL runs on a wide range of hardware in conjunction with various operating systems. You can guess from its name that Microsoft SQL Server runs only under Windows. Both of these database management products are constantly upgraded and many technical features that once were available only on SQL Server now run on MySQL. In the past SQL Server clearly surpassed MySQL for enterprise-level systems, while itself often losing out to Oracle or other database management systems. Today’s reality is more complicated and MySQL Enterprise Server manages many huge database systems.
Talking about size, we didn’t finish discussing LAMP components in this article. PHP is the subject of the next one in this series.
How to check the return results of each of the mysql_query calls?
Id really appreciate examples 
How do I get rid of it completely?
And to everyone who says firefox is so great, IE is the only program that lets me install flash player updates so I can use youtube, etc. firefox is apparently incapable of doing that. That’s why I’m getting rid of it.
I have a password protected directory. Here’s the situation:
You login and it takes you to the index page of the directory. But then when you click a link, it asks for you to login again. It only aks for it twice though. Any ideas why?
