    hosting plan

    I have been very happy with Lunarpages. They support PHP/MySQL (unlimited databases) and lots of other stuff and have a forum which has been very helpful.

    Getting data off a website

    Try opening excel and.... Data > Import External Data > New Web Query And from there follow the wizard. Then after you get it all setup you can just click on the "refresh" button in excel and all your data will be updated. HTH.

    Help with php, MySQL, CSS coding

    PHPBuilder.com is a great site (much like this one but for PHP/MySQL). As far as the CSS I would really recommend working through a good book and then use a messageboard to move forward. Actually I prefer the above method for most new skills. Messageboards are great because there are so many...

    Text Too Close To Edge

    Shades, Thanks I'll give it a try. Squidinker, Right align has pretty big increments and in my case just serves to center the numbers. And really to tell the truth, I remember having done this before and can't get it out of my head. I am the type of person that when vacuuming, and am unable...

    Text Too Close To Edge

    In the end I would like the text aligned to the right with about .1, .2...from the right edge so it's not so close to the text next to it. If I do indent increase I have to use left text align to scoot the text over and then it looks funny, that's why I described it as padding. I thought I had...

    Here I go, I'm gonna step in the puddle again! Only my opinion... When you go to your products page your offerings are right there which is great and I like how you have room for a brief summary of each offering. But, the summary content could be more enticing as to make me want to click ahead...

    And sometimes we're just looking to be attacked. And maybe there was no bait set at all. Perhaps there were no sinister motives at all and the comments were made with good intensions. I guess we'll never really know, will we?

    Opinions please...

    I like the green bar. Perhaps shade the bar (give it depth like the yellow nav buttons) it's kind of flat.

    Opinions please...

    I like it very much. I think boblarson covered it pretty well. I had the same flashing experience with the menubar. I'm kinda trying to figure out the color combination as well. I love the red, green and even yellow (a warm feeling descibes it well) maybe it's the blue that doesn't belong in...

    dan-cat Point taken (a bit out of context though), however I still stand by my statements. I not only lean towards the technical side but I also work in the marketing department for a very large company (I think they will take over the world someday). So I am making my statements from two...

    Calm down... Did I not preface my post with "Don't take this incorrectly please..."? And just look what you've done. Take it in the spirit in which it is given. The problem is you are posting your request for opinions at a site that is a "Technical Help" site. Which means most people here have...

    Find 1st Friday in January

    Thank you, I'll give it a try. On the surface it seem's like it should be easy, but getting deeper into it...not so much.

    Sorry so many questions, but I'm on a project and fairly new to excel... I am trying to find the first friday in january of any given year (so I don't have to change my starting date every year manually). In the end I want to list every friday of the year down the column. Once I have the first...
