  1. Perhaps you should make a little website with your original artwork vs. a photograph of the `stolen` materials, asking visitors if the companies actions were untoward or not? (don't say there were yourself, invite others opinion without giving one).... Or forget about it as £ 25 isn't worth the time.
  2. The European Commerce Directive is similar but implemented slightly differently, if you can demonstrate illegality then the host has a limited amount of time to remove or respond before losing its limited liability protection (and of course fatuous claims are themselves illegal). We generally use the familiar term DMCA.
  3. It should be updated with your host in their control panel, the changes should take a matter of minutes to be applied to public whois so it sounds like you're either changing it in the wrong place or the host has an issue updating whois records.
  4. http://www.icann.org/en/resources/compliance/complaints/whois/inaccuracy-form https://secure.nominet.org.uk/account/whois-complaint.html http://www.nominet.org.uk/uk-domain-names/about-domain-names/domain-lookup-whois/incorrect-whois-data --- There are different rules on whois data validitiy depending on the registrar, but its something they're all becoming a lot more hot on now. I would recommended not using fake details on whois, to-do so would be to break the contractual agreement between you and regisrar and effectively giving up any rights to the domain.
  5. With .UK domains you can hide the whois information assuming you are not conducting business on the domain (Google adverts = conducting trade/business) and Nominet (the .uk registrar) does not charge its customers for this service (but they may charge you). All of the other (common) domain extensions you cannot hide the whois information, but you can pay someone to appear on the whois for you. Enom and other domain providers all supply their own 'privacy protection' version of this service at cost. There is a requirement to keep your whois information updated and accurate, if you deliberately obfuscate your address information in the whois your domain will be suspended, taken off you or lost.
  6. _If_ you can prove the content is yours and you feel all avenues or discussion/neegociation have been exhausted, then you could make a DMCA request to her web host which will (within 24 hours) cause the content to go offline. The host will then contact the other party and either the content will remain offline or they will counter claim your DMCA request as is invalid and it will appear back online. After this you could then consider seeking resolution via the courts or be satisfied your work isn't being used for free (with attribution or compensation).
  7. There are more gTLD than people interested in purchasing gTLD. Hoarding gTLD for future use does not make sense. Your content what is going to work in Google, the domain itself means next to nothing. BTW, HostLove is another generic brand of ioMart Group PLC incase you wondered.
  8. If Nominet had NOT chosen to restructure .UK at the same time as the new gTLDs launches then I would of said *.uk had the stability and brand to persist in the competative marketplace. Unfortunately they are removing all the good work they did previously and screwing over the UK internet economy (only the largest registrars and nominet will benefit) and will find their previous monopoly erroding over time. I think .com is in a much stronger position, but will still become less relevant as people get used to the new URL (or indeed URL continues to become less relevant due to search-engines and gateways). /2p
  9. Yes, you can use .htaccess and mod_rewrite to rewrite all requests to file.php and then within file.php and use the $_SERVER[] values to determine the path and views you want to load. You can also do a similar thing through 404 error handling (likewise in .htaccess but using Apache error pages) and force the header to the correct status. Try using a .htaccess and phpinfo.php with the following contents under a sub-domain and have a play around with different URL: .htaccess: <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteRule ^phpinfo\.php$ - [L] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule . /index.php [L] </IfModule> phpinfo.php: <pre> <?php print_r(parse_url($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'])); print_r($_SERVER); ?> </pre>
  10. I'm not massively familiar, but http://stackoverflow.com/questions/18369036/bootstrap-3-glyphicons-not-working looks quite relevant.
  11. > piece of software for customers to design an acticle of clothing If this is where the image/composite is being created, then this is going to be the easiest and ideal way to export it. You'd otherwise be looking at something very hacky or dependant on the clientside.
  12. Google: jquery modal on page load (will explain better than I can here) Within the modal html, embed your video player. I would definitely avoid auto-play and make sure it's easy for people to close/skip.
  13. Seeing as this has been re-raised. Wasn't/isn't a Google+ profile created for everyone using a Google service then/now? It would be interesting to see fresh statistics since Google+ became the enforced comment/authentication method for youtube.com
  14. I find the size of the header a little annoying, it also means your contact link isn't visible (on my resolution). It does the job, nothing seems to be particularly broken, the colours wouldn't be my personal choice but with your mixcloud photo covers they kinda make it a bit more sense/personality. My only concern due to the MixCloud iframes would be the ratio of text to html/non-local content on some pages, but if you keep the blog updated/content fresh it will generally help. I'd maybe also bold the most important words on your index for immediate impact: "Reading, Berkshire" and "underground house/minimal", "house", "disco", "techno".
  15. So this information is populated automatically by visiting a page? Is that also configured with some sort of 404 handler (via mod_rewrite or otherwise). Based on the limited information supplied and the above being correct, it sounds likely that the page you are visiting has a link/reference to a bad bit of media (maybe css, maybe an image, maybe something else) and when visiting the page its actually making two requests. There's nothign syntaxically incorrect with your SQL statement. Beyond that, please provide more code, further information and/or a test URL so we can take a look for you.
  16. Welcome to the forum, we're all novices at something so don't worry. > I have no clue were to begin. do i go to university? do i learn online? do I take some professional courses? I personally learnt everything I know online and from my colleagues and peers. Generally speaking whatever you learn at university is going to be dated or not very relevant to your chosen career path. For the most part in digital terms if you can do it, then you are qualified and employers put much more emphasis on ability over qualification. Enjoy!
  17. The hosts file is to be configured on the computer from which you want to access the local development server, 127.0.0.1 would only be used if you were visiting the site from the same server it was hosted on. If you development server were 192.168.1.100 and your PC 192.168.1.200 you would add to your hosts file on your PC "192.168.1.100 test.com" and then you would get the local version when visiting from there. If I've misunderstood your situation and you want to host the website on a computer in your office, publicly on the internet without the use of a web host... Then you're going to need a decent connection with sufficient upstream, a static IP address (or dynamicdns service), port forwarding on your firewall and the updating of the public DNS / A NAME records to point appropriately. That may be more effort than purchasing hosting to perform your development however (especially as you'll just need to move it when going live anyway).
  18. For testing purposes, update your local 'hosts' file. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hosts_%28file%29 127.0.0.1 text.com This will mean all lookups for text.com go to 127.0.0.1 rarther than looking toward your DNS resolver. Likewise, on your bosses computer put the local IP to your development box (as it won't be local to them).
  19. I think you missed the jesting between Seiko and myself sire
  20. You can protect the variables from obviousnous with urlencode(base64_encode($var)) and likewise urlencode(mcrypt_encrypt($var,$losofoptions)) as you've found. What and why exactly are you looking to protect though? You'll only generally need to perform client-side variable encryption like this when passing between different systems which cannot easily be integrated, you would typically otherwise want to retain said info on the server-side.

  22. As far as I'm aware, TSOhost use load balancing web nodes with backend SAN (in simplest of terms) for their shared hosting, you may be able to see many user mount points but if correctly configured it is not a problem. Even without those technologies, there are other options such as CloudLinux and other reasons (many static sites, domain holding) why there can be a high site or account population on what looks to you like one server.
  23. It'd be interesting/great/cool to see kinda a version of http://api.jquery.com/ but with standalone IE compatible snippets for everything there. Not very relevant to your link, but relevant for anyone relying on externaly hosted jquery of recent: http://www.ispreview.co.uk/index.php/2014/01/uk-isp-sky-broadband-shield-accusing-blocking-critical-jquery-website.html
  24. Just jesting, will take off if a problem
  25. I'll have to suggest PipeTen, I use them constantly and the reviews speak for themselves
