Nice effect, how is this done?

I browsed a couple of nice websites recently and I'm curious how those effects are created, I'm not even sure what kind of language they are written in, but javascript looks like a good bet so here I am in this forum :P Yeah, I'm the outdated guy who thinks the only way to make something move/animat...

What is a good way of handling various error messages on the website?

Re: How can I achieve something like this

Thanks Celauran, .htaccess was something new for me, I bumped around a little and was able to get something simple like this working, to redirect all http://www.mydomain.com to just mydomain.com with RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.mydomain\.com$ [NC] RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://mydomain.com/$1 [R,L] H...

How can I achieve something like this

Hi, I have seen this somewhere, but I've lost the link to it. My website has users who have filled out their personal particulars for display when others search for them.

Re: Database design with 3 kinds of user

Ah yes, that was my mistake, I meant to say 1 table - if i use 1 table to store everything, I'd need to select the users from the staff for every search.

Gave it some thought, a nice idea! Gonna try that out, thanks! :)

Re: file storage question

Thanks for your reply! I'll give an example: Jake has an account, he uploads his certs and resumes.
