Question concerning Making Web Site Private
Mood:  not sure
I'd like to post family pictures, but have them viewable only by invitation. Is it possible to make part or all of my site by invitation only?

I was told you could save your own music from your own cd's to your angelfire account. True? If so, how do you do that? HELP!

bandwidth details
Topic: News
Is there any other way of finding out my hourly bandwidth use since the details view does not show it?
Can I infer by my general usage if visitors have been blocked out by excessive usage?
Can I tell from my details on visitors what time they were there? I understand the IP address but do not see the time of visit.
The bandwidth hourly use to give me that information, so I wonder if there is a way to get that information from other areas of my site information.
Thank you.

member sites
JP, I wrote about this a couple of weeks ago, but the situation still seems to be the same.
I'd sure like to see my site (https://www.angelfire.com/az3/goladyjags) listed on the Angelfire "Browse Member Sites". It should be listed under both "sports" and "youth and high school," but I don't see it.
Any idea when this might be happening?

Topic: Image Questions
Does anyone know if Angelfire's CGIbin/code can handle "file fields" within a form from a web site? If so, how? If not, please let me know so I can stop TRYING!

I got ahead of myself and deleted the /images directory. How do I re-add it? I'd like to be able to get it back to the way it was when I first signed up. I've thought about just signing up under another name, bur decided against it. Any help, would be apreciated.

Angelfire Maintenance - TONIGHT
Topic: News
After midnight tonight, the Angelfire team will be conducting some hardware maintenance. During this time, some members websites (for both free and paid members) will be unavailable. We do not expect the maintenance to last more than 20-30 minutes for any specific member, though it will probably last less than that.

I apologize for any inconvenience. It's all on the way to making Angelfire better.

JP

Reduced Prices for Domains
Topic: News
The Angelfire Team today released an update to "Lycos Domains" (domains.lycos.com) which lowers the prices on all standalone domains from $34.95 per year to $19.95, with discounts for mult-year purchases. This change does not affect Angelfire members who get their domain free with their bundle package, but users that have purchased domains separately will see the discount the next time they renew.

If you aren't familiar with them, Domain Names purchased through Lycos are completely compatible with Tripod & Angelfire hosting and support the transparent "domain assignment" (which you need for search engines, etc.) If you already have a domain, you can purchase another to use as a subdirectory of your site. (Lycos Domains also offers WebMail and some other featuress.)

If anyone sees any problems with this new feature, please let me know in this thread and I'll make sure they get looked into.

JP

(Yeah, if you read both clubs then this message sounds awfully familiar. Maybe I should call it the Angelpodcirclegearfire Team, but that doesn't flow as nicely off the tongue. We're all one happy family.)

Frustrated with sendmail
Mood:  not sure
I'm confused with the angelfiremail sendmail program. Could anyone email me on what to substitute in different keys($) of the sendmail program. i.e. $class,$self,$message. And this line###..$MAIL->sendMail ($mail_template,\%variables);..### Do I place the name of my mail template file in the key $mail_template and do I put my variables in the %variables hash? Email me at Reekerave@hotmail.com with your help. require AngelfireMail; $MAIL = new AngelfireMail; $mail_template = "./flintstones_mail.txt"; %variables = ('email' => 'Wilma@gurlmail.com', 'name' => 'Wilma', 'number' => '2'); $MAIL->sendMail($mail_template, \%variables); sub new { my $class = shift; my $self = {}; bless $self, $class; return $self; } sub sendMail { # example: $MAIL->sendMail($template_file, \%hash_o_variables) # requires: 1) name of a file that is a template for the mail # 2) a reference to hash of variables to fill out the template # does: writes a mail file to member's directory to be mailed later # by sendmail # returns: 1 on success, 0 on failure my ($self, $template_file, $hash_ref) = @_; my ($message, $key, $time, $file); # error checking if ((! $template_file)||(! $hash_ref)){ print STDERR "usage: sendMail(template_file, hash_reference)\n"; return 0; } if (! -s $template_file){ print STDERR "file does not exist or has a 0 size!\n"; return 0; } # read in template open (MESSAGE, "<$template_file") or die "can't open template file $template for reading\n"; undef $/; $message = ; close (MESSAGE); $/ = "\n"; # variable substitution foreach $key (keys (%{$hash_ref})){ $message =~ s/\$$key/$hash_ref->{$key}/eg; } # check final template format if ($message !~ /to:.*\w+@\w+\.\w+/i){ print STDERR "To: field missing or invalid recipient\n"; return 0; } if ($message !~ /from:.*\w+@\w+\.\w+/i){ print STDERR "From: field missing or invalid sender\n"; return 0; } # write template to file $time = time(); $file = 'mail.'.$time; open (FILE, ">$file") or die "can't open file: $file for writing\n"; print FILE $message; close (FILE); return 1; } 1;

Blog Builder Interface Problem
Mood:  down
Topic: HTML Questions
I recently posted an entry on my blog that included script for a "Tag-Board". I want to delete this entry but because of its script, I cannot modify nor delete it through the blog builder interface - it is causing some kind of incompatibility. The "Post", "Delete", and "Preview" buttons do not funtion with this entry. I have tried IE 6+, Mozilla Firefox, Netscape 7+.

Any advice on how to delete this entry through a different manner would be greatly appreciated because it is causing severe complications with the blog builder interface.

Help.. Going insane
Mood:  blue
Topic: FrontPage
Hi all, I am very new at this, and not doing so well lol. I have two questions that if anyone can help I would appreciate it very much. Question 1: I thought Blog could just be a link on my web page to be able to go to, but when I created a Blog it over wrote my whole page, and I didnt want that..What did I misunderstand? Question 2: If not already answered in question 1, What I am really wanting to do it have a link that goes to a place where you can post things, I want this link on my homepage. See I am doing this site for a Spades Team, and I need a link they can click on to post things at, but I dont want my whole site to be a Blog, and when I tryed to connect my Blog as a link it wouldnt go, and then somehow I over wrote my whole page I created into a Blog page :( Like I said not doing so well here. So any advice I would love to hear please.
