There are no direct links on the download page to get the installer, but you can find it at:

There is a 32 and 64-bit version and you may need to download other applications in order to install the database server, i.e. .NET Framework 3.5 SP1, Windows Installer 4.5, and PowerShell 1.0. There is also an option for download documentation for offline viewing.

Each theme needs these permissions on the GlobalCache folder. Transmittals can then be attached with each order.

Getting the URL with SEF Enabled

If SEF URL’s are enabled in your site, you can reference the article by opening it in Article Manager and build the URL using the text in the Alias box,

     http://www.website.com/contact

Getting the URL with Default Settings

The default setting for a Joomla site is for SEF to be not enabled, so a standard form URL is used to reference an article. Open the article in Article Manager and you’ll see the following information:

A URL can be built using the Article ID above, i.e.

     http://www.website.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=47

If the article has modules that appear around it and their appearance depends on Menu Assignment (in the Module Manager), you’ll have to add the Itemid it uses in the Menu Manager. Find the menu item that links to the article get the ItemID (see below).

You can then build the URL to view the article,

     http://www.website.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=47&Itemid=56

When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,
When the road you’re trudging seems all up hill,
When the funds are low and the debts are high,
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest if you must, but don’t you quit.

Life is queer with its twists and turns,
As everyone of us sometimes learns,
And many a failure turns about
When he might have won had he stuck it out;
Don’t give up, though the pace seems slow –
You might succeed with another blow.

Often the goal is nearer than
It seems to a faint and faltering man,
Often the struggler has given up
When he might have captured the victor’s cup.
And he learned too late, when the night slipped down,
How close he was to the golden crown.

Success is failure turned inside out –
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt –
And you never can tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems afar;
So stick to the fight when you’re hardest hit –
It’s when things seem worst that you mustn’t quit.

1. Left click the Start button and then select My Computer. If this option is not available, then right click the Start button and select Explore. My Computer will be in the folder list.
2. If My Computer is open, select Map Network Drive from the Tools menu, or alternately, if Explorer is used, right click on My Computer and select Map Network Drive.
3. Select the drive letter that you want to use and the network folder that it will be assigned to.

   

4. Press the Finish button and open Windows Explorer. You will see a new drive letter that will open the network folder that you assigned to it.

When installing webmin, I would get asked a password for webmin to completely install, but the software would fail after entering the password. An alternate way to install webmin is by using yum in the shell which is documented at http://www.webmin.com/rpm.html.

Setting Up webmin for yum

1. Create the webmin.repo file in the /etc/yum.repos.d/folder and add the following text:

   [Webmin]
   name=Webmin Distribution Neutral
   baseurl=http://download.webmin.com/download/yum
   enabled=1

2. Install a GPG key at the command line:

   rpm –import http://www.webmin.com/jcameron-key.asc

3. You can then run yum and install webmin:

   yum install webmin

Running webmin

You can login to webmin with your browser at https://127.0.0.1/10000/. If that doesn’t work, try localhost or your machine name instead of 127.0.0.1.

The results of the study are the following:

The numbers surprised me somewhat. From all of the hype around the iPhone, I thought that this would have been the been leading smart phone, but Blackberries still maintain a large lead over it. I was also surprised at the large market share that Microsoft has in spite of complaints over their lack of success in the smart phone arena. I prefer Windows Mobile myself, since its easy to develop for it using Visual Studio, but Microsoft needs to create an OS that resembles an iPhone if they want people to continue using it in the future.

I couldn’t find any references on the Moonlight web site for which version of Silverlight it supports. I would think that it would be at least version 2, but hopefully it supports the latest software at version 3.

Silverlight is gaining momentum in the web and is becoming a serious competitor and alternative to Flash. Competition between the two will force each one to create innovative solutions and in the end, the consumers (or users) will be the one who will benefit the most.

In the image below, the numbers show what percentage of users on cyprich.com have browsers that can view a resolution (defined by the vertical and horizonal numbers as pixels). A web site can be viewed with this information in the Browser Size site.

80% of users can see the entire blog, which is a good number. I was thinking of making site much wider, but after using Google’s site, it would be best to keep it under 1000 pixels wide for the largest audience. It might be a good idea placing ads on the left side as opposed to the right side, since more people would see it.
