Help?
I was wondering if there was a way to make the ads on my/the web page as a pop-up.

There used to be that option a while ago when I was first using the sites, but now I can't find it so I'm wondering if it was taken away or hidden somewhere.

It would be pretty great to know and all.
Thanks.

I CANNOT GET THIS PAGE STARTED
Mood:  irritated
Hello fellow Angelfire members! I am the co-founder of the CURE Bears project, which supports the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation. I started this page to help get the word about the project out, but I CANNOT FIGURE IT OUT. I had an Angelfire page a long time ago and it was a piece of cake once I learned basic html but I am so CONFUSED with this one. In my old site when I entered my web shell the only two things I saw were index.html and /images but now I see NEITHER of those and all I see are /_private, /_vti_bin, /_vti_cnf, and stuff like that and I JUST DON'T KNOW WHAT IT MEANS!!! Could someone please help me. If you could explain this to me I would appreciate it very much. My email is glamourgurl68@hotmail.com. Thanks in advance for your help!

Elizabeth

Angelfire Toolbar / Performance Improvements / Other Updates
Topic: News
Today, the Angelfire Team has launched a new toolbar feature on all free member pages. This toolbar replaces the search box and text links which were previously placed around the top ad. On most browsers, the space requirements for the bar is almost exactly the same as for the old text links-- we have been careful not to take up more space and "push down" member content with this change. The new bar includes two completely new features: a "share" feature that lets email pages to friends and a "Top100" list of member sites that we happened to like at the time. (This is a new feature and the criteria for inclusion hasn't been strictly defined yet. There are also more than 100 pages in the list. I'd like to move that to list pages which are well done and frequently updated, but that is still a work in progress.) The bar also includes links to the member directory, a link to report abuse, and an "edit" button so you can go right from your page to the builders if you are logged in.

I'm also happy to say that site performance has increased significantly in the last two weeks, but there is still room for improvement. Although the speed at which Angelfire responds to page requests has not changed, we have however made downloading files faster. We also have about 30% more server capacity coming on line soon and that will also improve things.

We will also be tightening our "remote loading" restrictions somewhat in upcoming weeks. Free users that use Angelfire solely to host files for other websites may find that ceasing to work. (They may also have their accounts removed.) However, we will be making more lenient other restrictions (such as with image search engines) to make things better for real Angelfire members. If you are just using AF to host your files, please consider creating a webpage or two or upgrading to any paid account.

Also: last week's issue reported here with Angelfire members sending email to AOL has been largely resolved. We have been advised that users that send a lot of mail to AOL may still be blocked, but the situation has been corrected for most.

If anyone sees any problems with the new release, please respond in this thread and the team will work to fix them. We are aware of problems currently with some small number of bottom ads in the rotation on some sites which can cause pages not to display properly for some users. (Other users will simply not see a bottom ad, but I don't think anyone will complain about that...) The team is looking at these problems.

This is a longer update than I had expected. I'll try and keep it shorter next time. :)

email problem
Mood:  spacey
On my web page I use the step 12 email option that is offered, well when I click on the email on my web page an email window comes up but in the spot where it say "To" is a name Delia Herron, I have no idea who this name is, it should say my name or business name. I have tried to change/correct this but have not been able to. I hope some kind person out there can help me solve this problem. THANK YOU in advance. Jenny

Angelfire page loading issue
Mood:  not sure
Now Playing: Valencia
Topic: FrontPage
Hi Angelfire Blog Members,

Lately [the past few days], I've noticed that
my Angelfire page doesn't always download.

All I see, is the TOP and BOTTOM
Advertising Banners...with no page
content in between.

Only after refreshing the page a few times,
does the content finally appear. This seems
to be an intermittent issue and NOT confined
to my particular website.

I have found the same thing happening
on other Angelfire member pages.

This problem is not a new one. In October 2004
an identical issue came up, and persisted
for over one month, until it apparently
corrected itself.

Ar that time, I went through a lot of email
correspondence with:
Mike @ Lycos Customer Service
Product Support Specialist
Email: support_angelfire_ls@support.lycos.com

Mike was very helpful, loading the page on several
different computers, however, he couldn't find anything wrong.

[Incidentally, I am attempting to load
these pages with a 'cleared cache and history']

Anyone else experiencing these same issues?

Tom
======

Question about mozilla webpage creator
HI all. I'm brand new at web page creation, and used the Mozilla web page creation stuff 'cause I work on a macintosh. OSX.

In the set-up when it asks me which software I used, what do I choose? Microsoft doesn't sound right. Do I select DreamWeaver, or FTP? Or do I have to scrap all the work I've done and begin a whole new web page?

thanks in advance....

Angelfire and Netscape
Mood:  not sure
For the past month I haven't been able to go to angelfire.com using my Netscape browser that I normally used. When angelfire.com is just opening my browser closes and gives me an error. IE works fine for viewing but I use Netscape Composer for my site and suddenly it does not work anymore. I tried other PC's but always the same results. Any clues??

Angelfire Update
Topic: News
This is just a quick heads-up to club members. The Angelfire Team is in the process of completing some upgrades which aren't particularly noticable, but may affect some people.

1. The abuse-prevention software has been updated and now treats less-kindly free members who are using Angelfire solely for file storage without actually having a webpage. If you are using Angelfire in this manner, I recommend that you build a brief page and you should have no problems. Alternatively, Angelfire allows file storage for paying members.

2. In the next two weeks, Angelfire will begin scanning all member content for viruses, trojans, worms, and other assorted ilk. Files which have been contaminated will be deleted. If we believe that the infection is a deliberate attempt to spread the virus, the account will be removed and the user will be permanently banned.

3. In upcoming weeks, Angelfire will be upgrading its paid CGI support from Perl 5.8.0 to Perl 5.8.5. There are very few feature differences between these two releases, however some scripts which rely on bugs in the previous release may not work properly. If you experience any problems with CGI support, please check to make sure it isn't a compatibility problem.

And finally, in the next several days (today, if we can get to it), Angelfire will launch a new visitor's toolbar on all free member pages. This toolbar will take the place of the current search box above the ad . This toolbar will contain a new "sharing" feature (to email the page you are looking at to someone else), links to the site directory and a new "Top100" feature, and other changes. For an idea how this will look, you can see a similar toolbar on all free Tripod sites. (For example, http://cwnurses.tripod.com.)

If you experience any problems with any of these features (or just have general comments or suggestions), please let us know by responding in this thread.

Topics and subtopics
Hi, I just started rebuilding my portfolio site (www.josephengle.com) that is hosted by Angelfire.

I was wondering if Angelfire's blogs allow for subtopics of topics. I am just trying to do as little coding as possible.

Also, I know that cgi/perl is good to go, too bad I don't know it. So, is .jsp allowed?
