    Anybody know Perl?

    OK, I'd like to change it from: if ($cgiparams{'ACTION'} eq $tr{'add'}) { unless ($cgiparams{'HOSTNAME'} =~ /^[a-zA-Z_0-9-]+$/) { $errormessage = $tr{'invalid hostname'}; } } To: if ($cgiparams{'ACTION'} eq $tr{'add'}) { unless ( ($cgiparams{'HOSTNAME'} =~...

    No, in this case there is no array. I know Newtun is close based on what the results are. Newtun, You think =~ means "not".

    Not to harp on it but that's really a defeatist attitude. They may not know it's a problem. How much effort does it take to send an email to webmaster@xbitlabs.com? You have the power! :cheers:

    I'm working on the other half of the problem now. Merc, can you tell me what this means: if ($cgiparams{'ACTION'} eq $tr{'add'}) { unless ($cgiparams{'HOSTNAME'} =~ /^[a-zA-Z_0-9-]+$/) { $errormessage = $tr{'invalid hostname'}; } }

    Much too bland for marketing. How about Matrox Graphics Accelerator? It's loads faster now. Just look at the name.

    Yes, well we don't always get what we want when we want it. On the BEP site you can sign up for an email notice when there is "movment". I'll keep you apprised.

    My guess is that the eye/ear cognitive dissonance is too distracting. The same effect occurs when movies are cleaned up for showing on TV.

    OOh. I had a bad thought. Can we confim that the other companies are not doing this too. I'd hate to think that this is part of the warranty reductions.

    The only drive I've RMAed had a warranty of 1 year or until the original warranty ran out which ever was longer. Of course this was IBM and it was before everybody changed their policies.

    Maybe this will help http://www.whstrain.us/smoothwall/dyndns-custom.html This is what I have to start with. I figure there has to be a better way than putting tags everywhere. Secondly, I'd like to indent the whole bit of code.

    I think I may not have been explicit enough. The best feature of the phpbb code tag is that whatever formatting you type in (spacing included) that's was you get back. I don't care about the coloring. I haven't tried yours yet blake. I'm still trying to figure out how to use it. Here's what...

    The thing about Cohen Bros. movies is that they are so character driven. It almost doesn't even matter what the plot is. That's what's apealing about Christopher Guest's movies too. I do enjoy a good John Woo flick though. The worst movie I've seen Nick Cage in was FIREBIRDS.

    Anything into Oil?

    Does all vegetation absorb CO2 at a rate proportional to it's size or are there some that work better? Like say a corn stalk absorbing more than a tree of equivalent size. But surely it's related to surface area. So a tree would have to be much bigger than a corn stalk for equivalent surface...

    I'm not trying to be antagonistic. What I'm saying is that you are right in your thinking, a smaller surface will not be able to transfer as much heat energy as a larger surface for the same temperature differential. But the Intel and AMD specification for "Maximum Power Dissipation" is...

    And... heat transfer rate is a function of area. The surface area has already been taken into account. Aren't you in engineering school? :o :) Besides that, Which of the chips I meantioned run at the same thermal output as the 1.4G T-bird?
