CAPTCHA's also a usability nightmare, but I wouldn't recommend using Javascript to submit your form; there are better ways. Try this instead:

Add an extra text input field to the beginning of your form, with a common name that you're not actually using for your form. If you use "firstname" and "lastname", call it "name". If you use "name", call it "firstname".
Hide the field using display:none in CSS (important to do it this way instead of using a hidden form field - the important thing is that the HTML should look like a normal form field to a spambot, but users shouldn't see it. Most screenreaders also respect display: none)
Have your server-side form processing script discard any form submissions that have that field filled in.

Genuine users will not see that field, and thus will leave it blank. Spambots will attempt to fill it in, because "name" or "firstname" will be common field names that they'll be programmed to fill.

I think Jason should change his avatar to this.

Seems there's a bit of a bug in webkit browsers with FancyBox. Long story short, when FancyBox tries to calculate the height, in FF it gets what you can see in the viewport but in Chrome/Safari it gets the height of the entire document. Result of this is that it makes the height of the modal window a lot bigger in Chrome, hence no scrollbar.
 
There's a fix listed in this post:

Yeah man. You have to find a cracked mirror, a three-legged toad, a cup of blige water and a thimble made of glass.
 
Float the thimble in the bilge water and put the toad on the mirror. Phone directory enquiries and ask for Mozart. Don't hang up till you hear the thunderclap. Then refresh the page.
 
You're welcome.

When it's not ringing.

Keyword density is an outdated factor and isn't something you should chase.
 
With keyword proximity, there isn't really a holy grail either.
 
From purely an SEO point of view write your content and sprinkle in the keywords when they fit. Don't force them in.
 
From a conversion rate point of view, look at writing exciting, engaging and thoughtful sales copy. At the end of the day, what is the point of a website ranking highly if the copy is full of ****?

If you're unsure then, follow sash's advice and contact GoDaddy's support team.
 
If you're feeling adventurous then have a look here:
http://support.godaddy.com/help/article/680/managing-dns-for-your-domain-names
 
You'll need to manually change the DNS records for your domain. The MX records control the email so don't touch them. The ones you're interested in are the A and CNAME records. You'll need the IP address for your 123-Reg hosting and probably have to add the domain somewhere in the 123-Reg control panel so it recognises it when you start pointing traffic towards it.

It's terrible for SEO, and terrible for users.
 
You should be concentrating on quality of copy, not quantity. The search engines exist to help people find the best quality content, so why not work with them rather than against them?

Depends what you mean by 'active'... and what kind of website ?
 
A forum with 150 members making thousands of posts per day can be run happily for nothing using a free web hosting provider. Though for better reliability you need a professional web host and these are normally between $5 to $10 a month.
 
By contrast a suite of chatrooms with 150 users contantly posting every minute of the day like you can find over at chess.com is going to require at least one dedicated server or Virtual Private server. Package deals for this kind of setup vary but $50/month/each is an average starting figure.

Just tackling the stray end tags...
 
Line 78, that is an extra end div, there is no start div for it.
 
The Javascripts are outside of the html document, they want to be before the /body tag and /html tag, not after the /body and /html tag.
 
 
For clarity:
 
... Your Javascripts ...
 
</body>
</html>

The only thing I can see that looks different from the premium theme is the logo and that is in one ugly font >:

Having your own servers is VERY expensive and time consuming, don't bother.
 
Instead go have a search for "Reseller Hosting". The basic idea is that, like normal web hosting, you rent server space from a hosting company. However, with reseller packages you're allowed to re-brand the service and sell it to others yourself. The web hosting company handles all the servers, support, etc... you just do the marketing.
 
Nearly all web hosting companies offer the service, it's just a matter of finding a host that you like at a good price.

Quote or it didn't happen.

1. Open source means more and better developers, problems are found and fixed quickly
 
2. That doesn't make sense - MySQL injection is an attack vector, not a technique you'd be using
 
4. Anything you code is only as secure as you know how to make it. If you're using a 3rd party piece of code to save time over writing it yourself, you should still check it over to make sure of its quality and security.
 
5. I make it about 173 results with the search string in quotes and about 6,530,000 results without - I only went through the first page, but 6/10 were using the word "hack" in the proper sense (a quick, inelegant but effective piece of code) rather than the Hollywood sense you're using. None actually demonstrated a way to compromise a WordPress site, and of the four using "hack" in the Hollywood sense there was no indication that WordPress was actually the first point of compromise.
 
I can't comment on your CMS because I've not seen the source, but if you're making claims about it relative to WordPress it's up to you to substantiate those claims with evidence, see below:
 

Try Commands > Apply Formatting.

You shouldn't use folders called "ad" on a website. Most ad-block browser plugins will flag it as potential advert and stop any content in that folder being shown. In your case, it stops all the CSS loading for your site.

People always ask me how to make a web site... so I made a video on how its done, by screen casting work I did for a client today. This is the whole web design process from my head to the computer. This was started as just a sketch on some paper and evolved as I worked. This is a really rough draft and will be touched up A LOT and added to. Just thought it would be cool to screen cast my workflow and process. It took about an hour and a half and turned it into about two minutes. Check it out at:
 
 

 

Here you are. Completely CMS-safe, as long as you can duplicate the anchor text in the title attribute.

There are plenty of site/tools out there that will do it if you just want it as a one-off. Just search for "Excel to HTML table".
 
If you're looking to do it on more of a long term basis, it would be easier to convert the spreadsheet to a CSV file. Then either import that into a database, or use something like fopen/fgetcsv and a bit of PHP to open the file and convert into HTML.

Yup, that's the kind of thing I was talking about.
 
However, a lot of webhosts disable fopen() on their servers as it's consider to be a security risk if you don't use it properly so you may have to go down the database route.

Seems to be a bit of a stupid system but I'm game for a laugh.
 
I'm in!
