First thing to understand is flexibility. You can't be a fanboy of any one technology. As jobs change, so will your requirements. Don't learn just php, but the concept behind it. Understand OO programming so when you have to switch to Jsp, asp, .net, cfm, etc it's easier for you. Also...

You need some kind of scripting language enabled on the server first. You can't do this with html/JavaScript.

you probably took that text out of word or something like that. Retype the characters in dreamweaver and it will go away.

Your server is not configured properly if it's trying to give you the asp file as a download. Make sure running scripts in enabled.

Well you need an event entry system, most likely placed inside an administration portal. It would handle the seat reservations as well, which is complicated. Then you would have to add the shopping cart portion that would handle the sales. It also looks like the left side has advertising...

What do you need it for? They're all tools, and although each one can do the same thing sometimes you need to choose the right one for the job.

Just using html, no. You can encrypt using Javascript, which will slow down or discourage anyone who's not serious about getting into your site, but ultimately you need to use something like php, asp, cfm, etc.

There is no script you can use for this as the IP pools keep changing. You need to use a service that you'll have to subscribe to.

You're also leaving your connection open, and in classic asp the server will not tidy this up. conx.close logonrs.close

I agree with you in this point. The reason I'm with .net is my sites get over 20 million hits a year. Also I like the idea of building my own packages so it's not dependant on what the ISP has installed, and not dependant on the version of the code.

I know this site is php biased and I can support that because you have a pool of people with similar experience (I use it too). But in the interest of education we should recognize the performance abilities of each language. Just thought I'd drop that in.

sorry but I was surprised by that. H1,2,3,4 elements are completely fine to use as long as their not hidden. I asked this of some Google engineers when I had lunch with them last year. These elements can be spam if they're hidden in an invisible div though.

Who the hell told you that?! That's complete rubbish. H1 tags are completely legitimate and are used all the time. My site is filled with them and I'm in #1 in Google for my field. Also, they suggest using H1.

You could detect flash and show the title, and if not show the h1. This way everyone's happy. No rules broken. Google crawler will see the h1 and people will see the flash, AND people without flash will see the h1.

It works until Google spam protection sees it. Getting caught using a technique like this will get you banned from Google for life. The domain will NEVER be allowed on Google again. http://www.marketingprofs.com/6/spencer26.asp

What you need to know is the anticipated volume. You can use a scripting language (php,asp,cfm) if your site is going to stay small. You should think of using a compiled technology (jsp,asp.net) which will allow for much better performance.

I can. What kind of database are you using?

I see all html files on your site so it's hard to tell what technologies you can use. Either way I recommend Zoom (http://www.wrensoft.com/zoom/). I use them for a site that gets a few thousand searches a month and haven't had a complaint yet.

Many servers such as IIS (Microsoft) will not only allow you to run an exe online, but they also won't allow you to download one either. You have to zip exe files if you want them downloadable. This is in their latest security service pack. You can built a Java App if you want to execute some...
