I'm trying (for the first time!) to build a database-driven dynamic website and am lost in the terminology.
Could someone explain the following:
The difference between Coldfusion and .NET? Are they roughly equivilant programs from different vendors?
How does ASP relate to ColdFusion? Is ColdFusion a way of implementing ASP, or something else entirely?
What, exactly, is ColdFusion is used for? I've read that it "gives database backend to web-based front end connectivity", but that's all greek to me. I'd really like specific, real world examples of what ColdFusion can (and is) used for.
Plain english definitions of some of the terms that typically are often used with CF (such as ASP, PHP, Access-- how does it all connect)?
Does it matter what database I use (e.g. is Access 2003 okay for a relatively simple database that will be used by ColdFusion and Dreamweaver?
Are there any special considerations in web hosting that I will have to allow for because I'm using CF?
Technical definitions in english, please: Coldfusion, ASP, XML, etc.?
.Net is a microsoft framework language. It's like, a foundation of a house kind of (loose analogy)
Coldfusion is a program, .NET is a framework language.
ASP (specificall ASP.NET) can be implemented via Coldfusion's GUI. If you've got .aspx server controls on your server, Coldfusion can do its thing on those for DB reports.
ColdFusion in the capacticy I've used it for, is a reporting mechanism; like a inhouse dataminer on Steriods. If you've got it running agains a ASP database, then now you can run custom-written reports against this database and gather information (simlar to CrystalReports).
ASP = Programming Language typically for Database-related interfaces; like webSites that interface with DB's (.aspx file extensions
PHP = Scripting language for Web Development. Dynamic content and web site creation
Access = Microsoft's Database management tool; SQL based tool, similar to Oracle except that its got a User interface instead of being Text driven.
It shouldn't matter, because ColdFusion and Dreamweaver should both support SQL databases... or at least be configured to be able to. However, I would look into ASP
None that I'm aware of... make sure the hosting site doesn't care about implementing .php on the site (they shouldn't since you're paying for just space.. not content)
Technical definitions in english, please: Coldfusion, ASP, XML, etc.?
Sorry I just have to say that as a ColdFusion developer that Greg's answer relating to what ColdFusion is, is completely wrong.
At first when I read through his response I thought it was a joke, the amount of inaccuracy is just that staggering, I couldn't believe it at first. Report It
Reply:To start setting things straight, ColdFusion is not just "a program", it is the original (and best in my opinion) server side language for making a website. It uses the tag based programming language called CFML, which is often easy to learn for someone who knows HTML. Report It
Reply:In terms of functionality ColdFusion is functionality the same as PHP, ASP/ASP.NET, or JSP.
ColdFusion does not have a "GUI" and it does not intergrate easily with ASP.net. It is based on Java and can easily leverage anything that Java can. Report It
Reply:Using the ColdFusion language you create dynamic webpages which can be database driven.
ColdFusion is not a "dataminer on steriods", it has intergration with reporting software like Crystal reports, but that is just one feature it offers. Report It
Reply:It also has a built in search engine, can create and use web services, check email, interact with ftp or websites, generate flash based forms and charts, PDF printable documents, and many other rich features you wouldn't find with other solutions. Report It
Reply:Also ASP is not a programming language, it is a similar technology for delivering dynamic pages, but the actual language used is usually VB.net or C#
ColdFusion supports nearly every database, and access would work fine for a small-medium sized site. Report It
Reply:You will have to make sure that the web host offers coldfusion in their hosting, it is not a standard feature. You should also look for one that allows you control to setup your own datasources and if possible also mappings and custom tag paths. Report It
Reply:My advice is if you want a reliable host don't cheap out, otherwise you'll get stuck on a server with 300 other accounts all fighting for the server's resources (CPU, memory and bandwidth) causing your site to crash often or load very slowly. Report It
Reply:You can find more information on ColdFusion here:

Sorry for all the comments, the 300 char limit is retarded!

Reply:What???????????
Reply:Idk about cold fusion, but....
ASP and PHP do about the same thing but are implemented way differently. I like php a lot better. They are both interpreted languages for the server-side. They usually do some sort of database query (like w/ access or something)and then send HTML back to the client.
Access is fine for most stuff. MySQL is what I use, and it is free, which is cool.

If there are multiple hits from the same IP address, are those all the same person?
I am new to web-hosting and have a neat web analyzer tool. However, I am confused as to why there are multiple "visitors" listed from the same IP address. I thought that was a unique indentifier. Are they the same visitors looking at the site more than once?
If there are multiple hits from the same IP address, are those all the same person?
Usally it means it's the same person, but sometimes a network has a router witch converts it all to the same IP address. So it may be the same visitor or different people on the same network.
If there are multiple hits from the same IP address, are those all the same person?
No two IP adresses are alike. If you see more than one hit from the same IP adress then it is the same person.
Reply:the IP you see may be a single user or a gateway from a corporate site. if its the latter, then you may have many people accessing your site from that network gateway
Reply:It could be from a network of users that have the same IP address, like a business with many computers and only one internet connection.
Reply:Multiple people behind a router using the same wireless network will show up as a single IP address.
Reply:i AGREE with redsoxer. An IP Address can represent a single computer, gateway, router, access point, proxy server and probably more.
Reply:No, it can be many person in a same company that use a same gateway
Reply:Yes. But, no sane person sends multiple 'hits', so it is a bad vibe that is 'hammering' you!!! Perhaps, karma?

What do you think of my website www.jamiesoon.com ? Anything I should improve to get more customers?
I know it doesn't look really professional but I'm try to make it more personal and show my personality. I'm just wondering whether I should stick to this concept or make my site more professional looking like other web design or web hosting sites. Or just be confortable with style and attract customers that like my style ? Anything you think I should improve ?

Jamieson:
Very artistic.
Their is a thin line between a professional looking website and an artistic one that wraps around your personality.
By professional I mean the basic white background and the boxy features.
I like your website for one basic reason: "It's different" and it is crafted "passionately". That alone is enough to draw quite a chunk of visitors.
Bear in mind that some will still be repulsed for one reason or another. Fortunately we are talking about a pool of nearly one billion potential visitors.
I wouldn't be worried about about it after all thoroughly ugly websites like http://www.craigslist.com/ are doing so well.
I checked your Search Engine stats and I have a feeling your website is new.
If that's the case, just market it to the search engines relentlessly. You will eventually get there.
Good work!

gud luck
Reply:I'm adding a link to your site from my giftideas page with the next update. And that's what you really need to do in the future: get listed in search engines and partner up with sites. Nice page!

How do i find domain registrant?
Web domain has expired. I thought I had transferred my domain several years ago to my web hosting company. I guess 脥 didn't. My domain just expired (I didn't receive any warnings) and I don't know who to contact to renew it with?
How do i find domain registrant?
http://www.whois.net %26lt;--
Enter the domain in the first section " WHOIS Lookup"
If your domain has expired, you can renew with any registrar on the net, unless someone else has taken the domain name already.
.
How do i find domain registrant?
I personally like 'Domain Dossier'. http://centralops.net/co/DomainDossier.a...
When you put in the domain or IP address, make sure you check off everything. It will show you good intel on the registrant.
Reply:If it's already expired I can pretty much guaruntee that you lost it. They usually go up for auction when they expire and if not then it's on an expired list that people scour over. You can try to renew it at http://www.doggydomains.com or you might have to just get a new one.

How should I charge for yearly website maintenance ?
I'm a freelance web designer, and I want to know how to charge for updating my clients websites. Now I offer them free maintenance for 1 year. But I'm planning to charge them for the following year after that. So should they pay monthly or yearly ? e.g. $90 per month. Or is that too low ? Now my clients are only paying for web hosting. Need to charge maintenance them to sustain my business. I would like to offer them as a service for free but its just going to burden me.
How should I charge for yearly website maintenance ?
Charge 50/hour

$20/hr is fine. That's what I usually charge for mine.

How to get an existing domain which is not active in real ?
try http://mrwebdomain.com or http://www.mywebdomain.com
they are really good domain sites, also if you need any help with logos, graphics, myspace layouts, forms, html, or want a whole website, check out http://hobographics.com - they are great and will work directly with you the whole time untill you are 100% satisfied and they have very good prices too.
How to get an existing domain which is not active in real ?
You do need to pay for the domain name, that involves registering the name, and you can then host it anywhere, the host servers will assist you in setting up your name on their servers but it is a pay for process
Reply:plain and simple (i have my own sight and know) that someone else has already bought and owns the rights to that sight.
try this
xyz123.org
the best sight I know out that that can help you is go to (I DON'T work for YAHOO) Yahoo, and find web hosting and then type in the sight you want and it will to say it is not avaiable but will give you many other options like .org to choose from, also www.microsoft.com offers the same service.
If it is not avaiable it will not be any other place you try unless you try .org or something else. When I bought the rights to my sight I own it for 10 years, most offer only terms like this for that long or longer.

I have websites added themselves to my favourites?
On my web browser, under my favourites, I have a whole bunch of websites and folders that I didn't add. They repeat themselves and I can't delete them! Heres what they are called:
computers, movies, games, web hosting, and casino online. those are the websites. Here are the folders: Cool Stuff, Travel, Shopping Gifts, Internet, Computers, Online Gaming. These are so annoying I'm too scared to click on the websites, and I can't delete them at all. Please tell me how I can get rid of them.

Hi-- your PC has got adware and spyware--first you should have a good anti virus like Kaspersky---next download the FREE Ad-Aware SE Personal 2007 software from lavasoft.com. You can also try Webroot Spy Sweeper from webroot.com(not free)---also try the FREE Spybot Search%26amp;Destroy software from www.safer-networking.org---thats all--good luck--better to use the FIREFOX ver2 browser its safer that IE.
