Should I always YUI or GZIP text files in my site or only when they exceed a certain size? Since the decompression takes some time as well I thought that if the files are small they should only be mified...is that correct?
There's a setting in php.ini: zlib.output_compression = xxx
If it is set to "On", php will bzip the output of scripts so that there is less data to transfer to the client. I found that this setting is quite useful especially on slow connections, but I have a slight problem with it: it also compresses output of scripts which generate pdf files. While Mozilla / Firefox handles this well, IE simply fails to show the document.
Is there any way to tell PHP not to compress output of certain scripts. Is there a command for that?
I put a javascript for a preload in it and it hasnt helped the front page. Right now the header is swish and we took that out and it still took over 2 minutes to download on DSL. I do have the JS anthology book but the script in there didn't work for us. Come to think of it I have almost all of the sitepoint books. Does anyone have any suggestions.
I have following problem: If you open a dialog in jquery, the website will be "deacitve" and the dialog would show. I want, that the website will be "deactive", but there shouldn't show any dialogs.
I have a JS file on site A which needs a few parameters from a short text file on site B. Since crossing domain boundaries in JS is problematic, the way I do it is that the JS actually opens an intermediate PHP file on site A which redirects to the destination page in site B. Here's how it goes:
The call is made through code...
The problem is that this takes a long time. I would really like to speed this up. For example - I thought of using a direct IP address, so that there won't be any need a DNS server (using Code...
) but this would expose me to hackers as it would make my Hostgator username visible. According to HG support the above format is the only way to access my subsite via direct IP.
Any ideas on how to speed this up, either by bypassing DNS (but without exposing username) or by offering another way of reading data across sites?

I am working on a client's site and he has some external javascript code that his affiliates can put on their websites to fetch some data. However, when my client's site goes down, the affiliates' sites cease to load thus taking their sites down with it.
Is there any way I can have the javascript check to see if the website is up before loading, and if it is, run this: Code:

My code:
Calls itself so the counter this script is used for is updated - all works well, just the page keeps loading...so whats the problem here? why does the website not finish loading?
I am trying to use both jQuery and Mootools in one site I am building. I have researched the web including [URL] with no luck. I have tried loading jQuery after Motools with no luck. My research indicates mootools needs to go first. I have also tried below but that doesn't seems to work? (function($){ // code with the jQuery $ can safely go in here })(jQuery);
I want to make a custom visitor tracking tool and like Google Analytics it must be able to track how long time visitors spend on each page.How do you recommend doing this?I thought of using the Javascript onload event to start counting time serverside and then the onbeforeunload event to do tell the server to end the time count. I'm just skeptic of an infinite visit duration if the visitor's browser for some reason doesn't call the event (ie power outage).
I had posted this issue previously regarding my Ajax site navigation module not loading correctly. It would load on certain parts of the site and not others. After some research I have discovered that I need to redirect from "www.mydomain.com" and make a call to "mydomain.com" instead. I thought a 301 .htaccess redirect would work but according to the site that sold me the template the script in my configure.php file must be changed. This is what configure.php looks like now.
I am wondering what has to be changed in the script so it will make the call the the correct domain so the ajax script will load on all parts of the site.
Ok i just created my portfolio site using a simple accordion effect i got from. [URL] Im very new to javascript and coding in general, so im sure my code is far from pretty. My question, is their a way to fix the delay on the way the accordion loads. if you go to my site [URL] you'll see that initially all the sections are visible and then they collapse after a few moments. is there anyway to make it so they are collapsed immediately.
Not what i would like but the client wants the browser re-sized on the site loading/refreshing... Been using the following and it works fine.... apart from in Safari. how i can get it working in Safari, or no chance?
Is there any way that I can add a limit for the amount of time that a javascript loader bar stays on screen?
The specific loading screen I am using is [URL].. This loading box actually activates once the page is loaded apparently, but in my instance, it is loading then disappearing in the matter of a second, but I wouldnt mind leaving it up for a couple of seconds, say 3-5.
You need the link to be out side the div you are loading your content into. As the line "$('#wrapper_of_subpages').load(this.href + " #wrapper_of_subpages");" in your code don't copy the event with the link you need some other way to keep your link event.
I am working on a page which uses a JQuery AJAX to call another php page that displays a list of random items and reloads every 2 seconds. The below code works in Chrome and FF but only once in IE,
I have a form, in which i used to display the select box, at the time of loading the page.. based on the selection of this, i want to populate another select box by sending the query to the server...(this is by using ajax).
But, i want to check the time to display the second select box, and first selections was made.. The diff b/w these process will reach say 30 sec, it will show the message?
how to implement it... or is there any other way to do this?
I created an image gallery which displays 63 images in a slideshow. The problem is that the show was slow because each image loaded one at a time during the show. No problem right? I just did a preload script. But then the user has to sit for 5 minutes waiting for 63 images to download! My images are about 640x480 and average 100kb. Is this too much for one page to load? Should I load my slideshow into differerent windows? If so, don't I have the same problem with my loading time?
do the following: I have a thumbnail image that on rollover swaps to another image. At the same time i want to do a fade out/fade in animation between the images. Most of it is working but when the page loads for the first time there is no swaping of the image but just a fast opactity effect on the first image. Then if i try the rollover for the second time it does work as expected. Is it because the image that im loading doesn't load fast enough and the whole animation onRollover doesn't happen? I also have a problem when Rollover fast on the thumbnails. It just stays on the second image but doesn't go back to the first original image? For some reason the animation gets confused between the Rollover and Rollout states. Here is a link to see the example
[Code]...
I know this is not a good practice but do is why im looking for help in this forum.
