| 433256 | 2006-02-23 20:43:00 | Thanks for the feedback. The host supports asp and cgi. But the whole site is now written in html..........Just wondering, who is the host? As your site is pretty basic, you would be better to have it hosted on a Linux server than Windows because hosting on the former is more reliable and costs much less (not to mention PHP is far more commonly used for the kinds of things you want to do). :) Also, I agree with the post above. Never put your email address on your site as text unless you want your inbox to become a spam box. :p |

| 433257 | 2006-02-24 08:22:00 | Thanks guys, I am really impressed by all the helpful feedback. The site is hosted at winsave.com. I did some bangs for the bucks comparison and found 8 US$ a month reasonable, but may have a mistake by having one that does not support php (although it does support cgi asp etc). Your comments and even sending me a script are enowmously helpful and generous. Thanks ! Johan |
