Disable File Sharing
I have Argon and can't find a way to disable file sharing to prevent anyone from "hot linking" to my images. Live help seems to be too busy today, I never received an answer. Any help?

Thanks,
Al-J

Mood:  happy
I have started another web site and I can not find where I can increase the Text block size the old one had a page where we chose the size, is this possible with the new set ups or did they dicontinue this on the new free web sites ? The new one is to narrow and to widen it would help when I edit.

How to execute cgi-bin/*.pl scripts?
Mood:  caffeinated
Topic: HTML Questions
I have created a .html page that uses a perl (.pl) script but when the script is executed I get a 404/'URL does not exist error'.
I know the file is in the right place because if I change the file type to .pm the file content is displayed.

Can anyone help me?

AF Update Today
Topic: News
The Angelfire Team released a follow-up to the release last week which we believe corrects all the known problems with that release. This includes a fix for paid CGI support, fixed counters, and a fix for members with mixed-case member names that were unable to log into their real sites. If you see any additional problems this evening, please comment on this post and I'll make sure the issues get addressed.

We are currently running a process which is correcting the mixed-case members. We expect that to run for another hour or two, but once completed it should catch everyone. Also, if you uploaded any files to the incorrectly-created-directory then they will temporarily be lost. Tomorrow, we will work on providing you access to these files in some way.

Again, if there are still any problems please respond in this thread. We have at least one more major update planned for this week and we want to ensure that there are no bugs before we start on that.

Web Shell is missing
Topic: HTML Questions
Help!

I went to log on so I could make a few changes on my website and found that that my files are gone. It looks like the first day I started my web page.

When I type in my address on my browser, my original page is still visable.

I sent a message to Angelfire Help and have not gotten a response back from them. I assume they are closed for the weekend.

Any suggestions? Does anyone have a telephone number at angelfire that I can call?

Thursday Update
Topic: News
This Thursday, Angelfire release a backend site update to resolve a number of small bugs on the site, as well as to prepare for an update to Angelfire Blogs and Angelfire Photo Albums which should be available in the next two weeks.

Unfortunately, it has been brought to our attention that older members (>3 years, at least) with mixed-case member names are now being logged into a downcased member site, without their existing content. I have received word that this problem should be corrected by Monday afternoon. If you are affected by this, you will not be able to update your site this weekend but it will continue to be visible to visitors. In addition, I ask that you do not attempt to move files from your mixed-case account directory to the newly created downcased one.

In addition, there also appears to be a problem with user counters. (The old Angelfire counter, not the Html Gear one.) This should also be fixed on Monday.

If you see any other new bugs which might be related to this release or any questions, please comment on this post to let us know.

Old case senstive web address = your webshell is gone???
Mood:  irritated
Topic: HTML Questions
It seems someone at Angelfire/Lycos has changed the case senstive web site address system in the webshell so my webshell which did have 100's of html files and 100's of jpgs now says it has 1 html file and no jpg files. My Angelfire web address has a capital W in it but when I log in my webshell shows a small w and says I just have a 1k index.html file with the beginner Angelfire template. All my html and jpg files are missing from the webshell. I have no way to edit my massive website anymore that I have had since 1996 and which I pay Angelfire over $9 a month for.

I checked someone else's webshell I handle for them and they had a capital letter in their address and the same thing happened to them. What is going on here? Can someone explain???

Need Help
I need someone to remind me how to break up text and bold/center/underline, etc in a text box. I created a page a long time ago which has since then been deleted. I can no longer refer to it for help. If anyone can just jot a short note to remind me that would be so helpful!

Thanks!

Counter Error
Topic: HTML Questions
I noticed my home page now says "Counter Error" where my guest counter normally is. I've never had a problem before and wasn't sure if something went haywire on simply my site, or if all of the Angelfire counters are down. Does anybody know? Thanks in advance.

Image only appears when page is refreshed!
I have inserted an image on my home page (www.angelfire.com/rock3/eddstanley)called untitled.bmp. I inserted it using the HTML editor thing. The picture appears when I preview the page, but when I load the page properly, it doesn't appear. But when I refresh the page, it does appear.

It seems very strange to me

Can anyone help?
thanks
