    My first PHP script - what's wrong with it?

    The mail() function only works on a UNIX-based server. If you're using a Windiws machine then it won't work. Generally it's not a problem because generally the web server you actually use is UNIX based

    Critque please but

    I think the corporate blue isn't suited to a personal site, furthermore the use of Serif fonts for on-screen display is not advised as (ironically) it makes the text harder to read. I recommend Verdana its half Serif and half Sans and ststistics show that 85% of people found it the easiest font...

Also, which databse platform did you have in mind, MySQL, pqsql, Access, MSsql? You did say you were using .NET arcitechture, so I asume anything that has ODBC drivers...

    "I wind up changing a lot of stuff in the code because it puts unnecessary junk in there." - StephanieCordray That's a fair statement and on the whole I agree. However I would like to point out that DWM2004 writes code with multi-browser compatbilty in mind, so its code will render...

    "Given the attitude exhibited here toward the product none of you would know that without looking in the source code so don't be so quick to judge..." - StephanieCordray That's my point, I have looked at the code that FP writes and I can safely say it's awful. Not so much the HTML, but the...

    "then bangs it up in Frontpage in half an hour and bills them six hours work for it. =) That I've heard done...." - Vaelor A couple of my friends have been ripped-off like that. However it's extremely easy spot a website based on an FP template, so just avoid those web deigners. Also, even if...

    As do I: the sloppy internal CSS code that FP generates is nothing when compared to the fine control that Dreamweaver gives you. The reason FP is still quite popular is simple: It's ridiculously easy to use, providing Word-like formatting... what people don't realise is that all this...
