If I were to use the CSS property ‘zoom’ could I enlarge my footer? It doesn’t make the load time any longer and doesn’t increase my file size…
Here is a demo:
<SPAN style=“zoom:200%;”></SPAN>
I am just asking this in general. I know my footer @ 200% is way too big period.
personally, i dont think you should. Filesize isn’t the only issue, sometimes big footers are just plain annoying!
(besides, i like your footer and i think it looks better at its normal size) 
I would say probably not, sorry.
It’s not purely about file size and download time. If it were, we wouldn’t have fixed pixel dimensions.
If you have a footer that large, it’s more space that people will have to scroll through…
You like the trick though right?
Nice trick, but no dice I’m afraid. 
Sorry to be a mean mod.
I, personally, think its ok as long as the final result isnt beyond the extents of the size requirements. Like, if your footer was made at 150x30 and zoomed in it 200% that would make it sized fine and reduce bandwidth on your hosting end and make it a ligher DL for viewers here (again, thats just me)
I’m curious about this… what about if your footer had a height of 150 and a width of 30, and when you rolled over it it doubled in size, so that it was still within the regulations?
[EDIT]I see you got there first then sen[/EDIT]
digital i always thot it was a broken link, i never saw any footer ever, just X X
i right clicked and pressed show image but nothing worked, so i thot it was a broken link or something.:-s
the height and width limits were imposed to help the forum layout and make it so things aren’t too cluttered… so no… its not just file size and load time…

There is an issue with DNS routing tables between our city and the rest of the world. Most people can see my image but a few can’t. I am going to move this to my personal server when I get a chance.
i was gona ask u the same thing, dude i want to make my system a webserver(temp), my frnd told me tht it’s possible…i have to keep my system on and turn on pws, ppl can come and visit my shared folder and download stuff from my i.p
it’s something like http://myip
it will show the content in my folder(wich i have shared)
can u give me a suggestion on that? i can pm u later wid some technical details if u want?
You need to have a static IP address. Check with your ISP to make sure you have this.
After that? Yeah, you can install PWS and set up a little website at http://yourip
.
your zoom doesn’t work for me…i just see two footers
?- css is not allways cross platform friendly

Not true.
I don’t run a static IP on my home machine.
I can help you out flasher. Just IM me @ TheDP927 on AIM.
What, you use a dynamic DNS service? Too complex, just get a static IP. They’re only like 5 bucks a month.
No I don’t use a dynamic DNS service. If your on broadband then usually your IP doesn’t change. If your on dialup then just go pull your IP from www.whatismyip.com and then send that to your friend to access.
Also, if your just wanting to swap files then why don’t u just setup an FTP?

“usually” being the key word here. It’s still a dynamic IP, and can change, and I really have no idea what the average DHCP lease lengths are in New Delhi. So if you send someone the address to your FTP site or whatever, and your DHCP lease expires, they’re SOL. I guess it depends on the application, if you want to set up a temporary FTP to share some files back and forth from work to home for a couple days? Sure, install PWS and go at it.
I’m a net admin at work so I generally tend to think in terms of more permanent solutions.
But then again, not everybody has the same corporate budget as I do at their disposal, so sometimes you gotta think MacGyver…

LOL coreyem, if you are going to a production type server then:
If u read his post then you’d see he just wants to post an IP to a friend so that friend can get files. I also don’t know your situation but I’ve had the same IP on my cable connection for like 2 1/2 months.
Also, if you disable DHCP on your computer and setup the DNS servers then your computer can stick with a static IP. This is great to spoof your IP or to say keep a webserver up and running. 
:p: :beam:

No shiznit, sherlock. I’m actually pretty thin on home networking, file sharing, all that stuff because once I get home from work I only use my computer for e-mail and downloading p0rn ;). When I do have to set something up at home, it seems I approach home-networking projects with a corporate IT mindset

I have never heard of this before. If this is true, that would be pretty cool. Time to do a little afternoon research…
You’re probably right about the FTP, I guess.
I would still get a static IP if it were me
