I'm constantly looking for ads from companies that need website designers and it seems like I know everything I already need to know to design a website (I've already made several of them just for fun). I've got advance computer skills, a freakishly fast typing speed (although I'm guessing that isn't very important), it's easy for me to learn to use new programs, I know a pretty good amount of HTML, I'm really good with computers in general, and I LOVE designing websites.

Problem is I'm not sure if that's enough... It's kind of like I'm missing some advance skills. So what kind of skills would an employer expect me to have?

At a website and message board, myself and 1 other person has access to the server to upload files (board files, website pages, etc). I use Filezilla and now a couple of others would like access to the server. The newer people are novices where FTP is concerned and I'm not sure if I want them actually accessing the area where the files are kept until they are more confident (i.e. they know what they are doing and what the pitfalls are). Does anybody here know what the maximum number of people you should let access the FTP of a website before it becomes too dangerous in terms of possibly losing files or files getting moved around.

I am trying to put together two combo boxes, Combo1 and Combo2, the content of Combo2 will depend on the selection made in Combo1, for example Combo1 will have 10 items, once an item is selected Combo2 will have different sub selections relating to that item. I know you can do this via Validation, but the problem with that I have about 4000 options in the combo1 and about 60000 in the second, here is the structure of my data:

First Option /Second Option
Option1_____1.1
Option1_____ 1.2
Option1_____ 1.3
Option2_____ 2.1
Option2_____ 2.2
Option2_____ 2.3
Option3_____ 3.1
Option3_____ 3.2
Option3_____ 3.3

My ultimate final result should look like this, two drop down menus once Option1 is selected second drop down form should display these options:

Option1 /_____ 1.1
____________ 1.2
____________ 1.3

Thanking in advance for your help,
Stan

there is no sound, could he be doing something wrong, or maybe forgetting to do something? He did everything (he thought) that he was supposed to do!
I know there's a good chance it could be defective, but he's eliminating all other possibilities first, PLEASE HELP!!!

Will the hyperx set of ram work well with the 2x256MB thats already installed in the computer? Or will it not work at its maximum performance?

how do i do a go back for my pc

2007-08-11 15:36:10 · 2 answers · asked by sora h 1 in Add-ons

I currently type 30 wpm. The reason is because I never really learned to type without looking at the keyboard so I have to keep looking back and forth at what I'm typing and the keyboard. If I type on my own or if I already know what phrase I am going to be typing, without having to look back and forth from keyboard to paper or screen, then I type 49 wpm. How can I learn to type without looking at the keyboard as I type? It slows me way down.
