The foundation of our XBM drawing capability is the drawPoint() method


The foundation of our XBM drawing capability is the drawPoint() method, xbmDrawPoint().As all of our XBM drawing methods, the drawPoint() method doesn’t actually draw anything on the screen.
Instead, it updates the internal state of the xbmImage object to indicate that the specified point needs to be drawn.

Starting a blogging website


I want to start my own blogging website.

Plz. help me

There are two basic requirements of starting your own blog. You need a software to run a blog and a place on the Internet to host your blog.

You can get Free Software + Free Webhosting

This is a completely free way of blogging. Here you pay neither for the software nor for the virtual hosting.

There are some drawbacks of this system. It offers very few features as compared to the paid services. You cannot post pictures online or design your preferred look for your site.

Second option is Paid Software including Price of Webhosting

This is a subscription-based option. There are ongoing costs involved in this option.

Paid Software + Paid Webhosting is the best option for you.

This option provides you paid software and paid domain hosting.

This option gives you great amount of flexibility. You can select your own domain name and have a feature-rich blogging software.

This option is highly recommended for businesses since the cost is not a major consideration.

The drawPoint() method takes the x and y coordinates of the point to be drawn


The drawPoint() method takes the x and y coordinates of the point to be drawn. These are specified relative to the upper-left corner of the image, which is point (0,0).
The y coordinate is used as an index into the array of xbmRow objects. The high-order bits of the x coordinate are used to compute an index into the array of JavaScript numbers representing the row. The low-order bits are then used to calculate the bit offset for the desired pixel coordinate, which is turned on.

Problems with free web host?



I want to host my newly build website with free web host. Is there any problem with free web host?
In my opinion, free web hosting is one of the most misunderstood concepts on the web today. Free web hosting plans are becoming increasingly popular as new webmasters bite into the idea without actually analyzing the consequences.
Bandwidth is always a problem with free web host.
Yes, The bottom line in web hosting is that bandwidth (data transfer) costs money and if your plan is free it is most likely your bandwidth will be limited.
Too many times I have attempted to access a web site hosted on a free server and been given the message: “This user has acceded their bandwidth limits, please try again next month”.
If you are a serious, or even only slightly serious, webmaster take the hit and pay the money for web hosting. U can easily get a web hosting account at 3.95$ per month from [b]cpwebhosting.net[/B.

The drawCircle() method, xbmDrawCircle(), and the drawFilledCircle() method


The drawCircle() method, xbmDrawCircle(), and the drawFilledCircle() method, xbmDrawFilledCircle(), take the coordinates of the center point of the circle plus the radius.
These methods take advantage of the fact that it’s necessary only to compute the points for a single octant (one-eighth) of a circle. They compute these points relative to an origin of (0,0), and then translate them to the eight octants relative to the x and y coordinates.

Once an xbmImage has been displayed, any subsequent changes to it will


Once an xbmImage has been displayed, any subsequent changes to it will not be displayed when you redraw the frame. Netscape assumes that images of a given name don’t change, so it uses its cached copy after the first draw.
The workaround is to assign the xbmImage object to an object with a different name and then redraw it. The JS-Draw application, shown in the next section, uses an array for this purpose.

To understand JavaScript’s event handling model


To understand JavaScript’s event handling model, you must first think about the things that can actually happen on a Web page. Although there are many different things you can do with the browser, most of these have nothing to do with Web navigation.
When you save a page as text, print a page, or edit your hotlist, you are not actually navigating the Web. In these cases, you are using some of the graphical capabilities of the browser, which are independent of the Web.

Hosting Service for business website


I want to host my business website. Plz. give me tips on finding a Hosting Service for my business website.

Every business has its own different needs and it is important to weigh up the options that each hosting company you are considering actually offers.

Choose a web hosting company based in your own country so that you can contact them easily but that is no longer necessary.

Website hosting are located all over the world these days and it is often much cheaper to select a company based in another region if they offer 24/7 cover should your website have any technical problems.

Also consider the automated systems by your hosting service to ensure that your business website is still online no matter what time of the day or night it is.

The personal data that your customers supply when using your website is also subject to strict privacy laws and needs to be protected at all times. This necessity increases greatly if you accept payments on your website by credit card, online check or an electronic transfer. Your chosen hosting service has an obligation to ensure that all data taken from your customers via your website is totally secure.

Security is becoming an extremely important issue due to the amount of hacking and viruses that attack websites on a regular basis. You have to be sure that your hosting service has all the latest defences in place on their web servers to prevent your website from being targeted and possibly destroyed.

choose a web hosting company which take your website backups regularly.

To understand which browser actions correspond to JavaScript events


To understand which browser actions correspond to JavaScript events and which do not, it is important to distinguish those actions that actually cause some change in the Web page being displayed.
From the user’s standpoint the number of such actions is actually quite limited. In fact, there are really only two types of top level actions: the user can navigate, or the user can interact with an element of an HTML form.

Anyone who has used the World Wide Web realizes


Anyone who has used the World Wide Web realizes that selecting a hypertext link may not successfully take you to another. The machine to which that link points may be down, or simply inaccessible. The link may even be dead, meaning that it does not point to a valid destination.
Selecting a dead link often unloads the current page, but doesn’t load a new page. Most browsers display a blank page or post an error message. You may or may not be left on the current page, depending on the type of error and the browser being used.
