HTML - Is It Really A Good Idea To Keep Domains & Hosting Separate?

This is my feeling on the entire subject. .net is a perfectly acceptable domain extension, it is valid and I have never really heard of .net domains as disrespectful. However, the majority of internet users when typing in a web address will by reflex use the .com extension. So, if you only have one domain and it is .net, the odds are pretty good a person typing your web address in their browser window will type xyz.com and not .net, leading them to never reach your website.

For the domain name you really like, would it still make sense if you added the two letters va (for virtual assistant) after it? You can always purchase your second choice domain and keep an eye out for your favorite (they expire, so at some point down the road you may be able to purchase it).

One other piece of advice, buy both .com and .net domain extensions for the domain you choose. Domains can be purchased pretty inexpensively...this way you are covered should a person use the .com OR .net extension when typing in your web address.

I have a website that has 2 frames. The left frame is the menu and the right side the content.

Can I somehow use a sub-domain to open mysite's menu on the left with the sub-domain shown on the right?

I would appreciate some help.

Thanks

I've made a lot of progress on my website:
Bands 4 Babes

but I'm still struggling with getting everything to look the same on all the different browsers.

Basically what I'm finding is:
Chrome and Safari (PC) - Displays exactly as I want it to
Firefox 3.5.2 (PC) - Displays properly except for the Home link in the purple bar is a few PX too far left and the --- above home is a line too high
Firefox and Safari on Mac - FF exhibit the same problem as above, but most fonts (sizes and faces) are off on the mac versions. This also throws off alignments of other stuff.
IE8 - Two solid lines on top and bottom of page are a few pixels too low which ruins the continuity of the box frame I created.

If somebody could take a look at my code and give me some thoughts on what the problem is I would really appreciate it.

Thanks.

I am looking for a hosting site that lets me use Wordpress Multi user (WPMU). For whatever reason, fatcow.com doesn't allow me to use WPMU. I am looking for price and ease of use for my coders.

Thanks for your input!!

I know this is NOT the place to put this but im really not sure where to put it and thought that this would be the best place to get it moved to the correct place quickly. Sorry for any inconvinience caused by placing this here.

My problem: Ive been working on a website for a friend for a week or 2 and have just finished it. I have been hosting it on my own computer while developing it and everything worked fine when i viewed and anyone else did (from the internet). I just uploaded it all onto their host (namesco i believe) and only 5 of the 8 webpages load. The other 3 are accessible via ftp and can be viewed through that so i know they are there and working but through http its asif they dont exist.

I have tried changing the file types from html to, htm and php. Both with no luck (also changing the links in the files of course).

This has really got me stumped and cant figure it out.

Thanks for helping people

Recently our web devolper for our karnival group has stepped down. He gave me the user name and password for the ftp and for strato.de . I want to create a database but I can not figure out how to becuase I do not know what my web hosting software is.(IE Plesk)

Is there a way I can find this out because I can not contact the old web master...

Thanks!

and i downloaded a layout and im uploading the index.html, images, and the css file to cpanel but when i go to view the page, the pictures dont show. what am i doing wrong?

Ok i have all my html codes my index.html and everything now i just need to know how do i host it? im going to use http://www.dot.tk to host it but how do i take my raw html files and host it to a domain?

Thanks!

I was wondering how to get rid of some pesky html code 000webhost.com puts at the bottom of my site. They insert it when I upload the site. When you search the site in google is comes up "Free Hosting", and I have my own domain. Is there a way to override this?

Here's the code inserted:
HTML Code:

<!-- www.000webhost.com Analytics Code -->

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://analytics.hosting24.com/count.php"></script>

<noscript><a href="http://www.hosting24.com/"><img src="http://analytics.hosting24.com/count.php" alt="web hosting" /></a></noscript>

<!-- End Of Analytics Code -->

Thanks in advance,

_private file hosting

I use to use the _private folder on my old website (netfirms.com) to hide files i wanted only privileged people to access with a direct link, because _private could not be searched or accessed without a direct link to the file or page you wanted to access. I would like to do the same on my new host (000webhost.com). Ideally I want a totally secure place to put files outside of the publics ability to see or access without being first given a direct link to. _private has thus far proven to be searchable and not an option here. this system uses a /public_html folder. i tried adding a /private_html and /_private neither was accessible. so how do i post secure files in my site? what are my options?

My newspaper's TownNews web hosting format gets REALLY screwy when I use the title attribute. Can anyone help?



I write for a weekly newspaper that utilizes the TownNews web hosting company for the paper's site. Posting the paper's stories to the web for each edition is my responsibility, one that I take seriously and would like to develop.

TownNews uses its own in-site software to post stories, with built-in text fields for "Insert Title Here," "Insert Byline Here," etc. You can use standard HTML within these fields, but based on the pre-made structure of the site's layout, certain features cannot be used. Or at least it seems that way. I'm hoping I'm wrong about this.

The main trouble I'm having is the title attribute in HTML. I know now, thanks to friendly and helpful responders here, that it's as easy as "title=..." within HTML code.
But if anyone else out there knows the TownNews format of posting stories, you know it doesn't like the title attribute because of its own site structure.

Is there any way around this? Has anyone else encountered similar dificulties?
I desperately want to use the title attribute.


Thanks.
