Re: Are wild cards available in web page find yet?

Okay thanks Pablo.

My pages have a long grouping text at the front so that is not of much use. I may sort them as an experiment.

Hi, I am using WYSIWYG version 9.4.4. Finally I discovered (right click, find page) within the site manager. Unfortunately it does not have the any number of any characters wild card that are available in UNIX as ".*" or "%" or just "*" in other languages such as MS-Acc...

Saving a static webpage properly for downloading files

Hi, I am not sure if this is an appropriate question but maybe. I have a simple website I am running on xampp to generate a few mysql database generated web pages. To get these simple web pages up to the web host I am pulling up the page locally on xampp then in windows-7 right clicking on the page ...

Re: ensuring a page is not stored in cache

I finally got back to this issue and tried the .htaccess code below with Google Chrome. It works. I did 10 days of tests with 12 tests a day for 120 tests in total. I stripped out all the other code. <IfModule mod_headers.c> Header set Cache-Control "no-cache, no-store, must-revalidate" He...

Hi, my website needs to (in a few places) play at least 10 seconds of an advertising video before a php page is called. I am assuming this would be a javascript or jQuery call with a call back function that executes the call to the page once the 10 seconds (a parameter) is completed and the user has...
