My web hosting service is called “Starter Pro” but this doesn’t appear in their list of web hosting services here! https://www.heartinternet.uk/web-hosting Anyway, I will investigate! Thanks again. By @Gareth_Williams   Well even the 'Economy' package listed supports php/mysql so your 'Starter Pro' package, which sounds a grade up from 'Economy' should come with php/sql support out of the box.   As you say I can't see 'Starter Pro' listed but I did notice the 'Economy' package supports php versions 5.6 through to 8. If your 'Starter Pro' package does maybe you need to select the version of php that's compatible with your build. Newer php versions have had older php features removed/upgraded, so if you are using any newer php features in your current built it may be that errors are thrown if your server is set to the incompatible older php version. Equally if you are using older php features and your server is set to a new php version errors will be thrown.   Let us know what the issue was when you find out. ... View more

Question #1 - most important -  How can I make the navbar logo stay to the left, the navigation links centered, and phone and email on the right?  I've been searching and trying to do this for some time. I'd appreciate any answers.   By @beng2000   This sounds to me to be a waste of time as putting the telephone no. and email on the same line as the main navigation will take up too much space unless you only have a few navigation links or are intending to deploy a hamburger navigation as the starting default.   Having said that have you explored using the Bootstrap utility classes for flexbox positioning.....which will space out your containers so they can be positioned left, centre, right. ...

Question #2 - I also did some research on the percentage of Word Press sites and bootstrap sites. It seems that 40% of websites are done in Word Press. Do you all find that to be true.   By @beng2000   It's not surprising to be honest, anything that's free will be used more than something that is not. WordPress not only serves the amateur developer market but also the professional developer market, so add the 2 together and you arrive at a high number..........similar to Bootstrap. Both probably wouldn't be as popular if you had to pay a fee to use them.   Having said that l think you have to make a decision...........if youre going to use WordPress then focus on it fully and get to know it, inside out, explore how it works rather than just relying on drag/drop/click/select components, plugins. There's still a good appetite for WordPress developers in the jobs market so it's not an entirely waste of time getting to know it rather well.      Question #3 - What would be the best way to code a website without using bootstrap or Wordpress By @beng2000   Manually, you can't beat coding manually but it will take years of practice. It's satisfying and fulfilling to know you're in total control and will open up better opportunities if youre going to be in this game for the long haul. Some will have the passion to want to understand what it is they are actually doing, others won't and will take the quick fix route such as using libraries and frameworks. It's your choice, short term gain versus long term return and better opportunities. ... View more

Does your remote server support php?   Create a blank file, insert the below block of php code into the file and save the file as phptest.php then upload the file to your remote server and browse to it in your browser.   <?php phpinfo(); ?>   Once you browse to the page it should return a lot of information about the version of php/ mysql running on your remote server. If it does we have established php is running on your remote server. If you get any other error then it's likely to be a server error and you must contact your hosting company.   Also it could be the versions of php/mysql on your locally hosted server Xampp and on your remote host are not compatible. If you are using an old version of Dreamweaver and the server behaviours then they will not work on a server which is running a version of php 7 or greater. ... View more

This what I see at normal Zoom settings on a 1680px wide display.   By @Nancy OShea   That's kind of what I'm seeing as well so I really dont know why the OP is seeing all the boxes as being stacked in their browser, that's IF we are looking at the same code, which I doubt, as I only see 3 products in the original post by the OP.   Anyway if what is required is the functionality in the url posted its best and easily accomplished with grid.   Plus its baffling because the OP says the original website was produced 20 years back, well the code at the url posted doesnt look quite that old...........so I'm confused.   I'm out now so I'll leave it in your capable hands to sort out. If the OP wants to go down the grid route based on the functionality at the url posted then I can provide some code for that....its pretty simple to keep the fixed width image and allow the images to fill up the browser space or wrap if there is not enough space.    As an aside note.

There's obviously something in your css that stops the divs displaying inline. Without seeing the complete css it's not possible to provide a conclusive answer.    However I would not use display: inline-block; to position containers next to one another. 1) we have better methods like grid and flexbox to do the job and 2) the containers will NOT sit exactly next to each other as inline-block leave a gap between the containers. You can run the html code on to avoid this but that gets a bit messy or use some negative margin, again that gets messy and is avoidable using more appropriate methods such as flex or grid. ...

You want answers? I will give them to you once you have answered my one single question!   WTF, here is my answer. Jobs are advertised by companies that already have their own web development environment in place. I agree that these companies, in general, will not be using Wappler. However there are exceptions that I see in the Wappler forum, but they are very few.   The thing is that not everyone is tied to working for a company, much like you and I. This is why your questions are irrelevant to this group of web developers. What this group needs is a powerful IDE that helps in creating a web, mobile or destop application. By @BenPleysier     But youre not saying anything different to what  I said in which you implied l was incorrect. As long as you can source work yourself then l see no problem with using a niche workflow, however a career which may span a number of years its putting all your eggs in one basket which is what l said. If for any reason work dries up well good luck in finding a full time vacancy on the basis of you know how to use Wappler. It only stands to reason if you have a wider knowledge, use what is considered to be main stream approaches then there will be more opportunities. To me its a blinkered concept to put yourself in that position unless you really don't care about your future as possibly a delivery driver or shelf stacker. Sort term gain rarely works out in the long run.   Most jobs advertised by companies won't be asking for experience of app connect, they will be asking for experience of Vue, React, etc that's not Debatable.   As for your example that's great as long as you have the knowledge, skill and ability to tweak what you don't like with a default solution. Again l doubt that would be the case for the majority of users who would just go with what's on offer..........how is that considered professional. Its not wrong but you can't compare the two as being equal, as you are trying to do.   I could build a brick wall at a stretch but lm not in denial that it's probably not going to be as good as a skilled exponent in brick laying. ...

I don't see whats irrelevant about asking you to provide some proof based on the information l provided which you suggested l was incorrect about...............OK so i knew it was going to be impossible for you to do. so.........to prove my points, you obviously can't prove yours. Thanks for the confirmation.   Maybe you should think  before virtually inferring someone is a liar, that's not very friendly either, so you should expect a response to reflect that in reference to implying you seem to be in denial, at least over protective, blinkered, call it what you want.   For anyone else sitting on the fence just go to stack overflow and search for Wappler, how many results come up compared to if you search for Vue, or React etc, it says a lot and proves all the points l made. Just go to their web development poll for 2022 and see what is considered the most popular main stream js frameworks and most popular of editors used by developers..........well l rest my case.   ...

Well @osgood_ , please continue pretending that you know Wappler.   By @BenPleysier   Theres NO pretence about it, please elaborate if you think I've got anything incorrect about what I have said. Sounds like you have been brain washed by some cult to keep denying simple facts, which anyone can find out if they care to.    1) Show me a main stream jobs board with numerous positions for Wappler users? 2) Show me where app connect appears in any serious web-development poll or Wappler for that matter being used as one of the most popular editors. 3) Show me a dedicated website which documents app connect in terms of using it without Wappler 4) Show me a community other than the Wappler forum where you can find answers and solutions regarding the use of Wappler and app connect   Come on be real. I'm not trying to pour cold water on Wappler at all here (its useful to a certain demographic, perhaps you for instance, being mostly retired, no longer career concerned, I would think and possibly finding it easier than keeping pace with current workflows involved in main stream development, such as React, Vue, Angular). You keep on saying I'm pretending, well go ahead and prove it.       ... View more

  Yet when DMXZone supplied extensions to Dreamweaver, there was no talk about a niche workflow.   I would agree with @osgood_ if he were giving this advice after having tried to use Wappler.     By @BenPleysier     I'm not keen on workflows which box you in making it more difficult to find answers and solutions to problems. You become dependent on a small community of users rather than a large community of users. I'm not keen on workflows which don't use recognised/popular main stream workflows such as the app connect framework. It's not extensively documented like Vue, React, Angular and many others. Why not because its a niche workflow built for a specific purpose, that being a commercial solution, which requires you to buy into it.   Is this bad, yes, if you are in web development seriously as it will limit your progress and potentially future opportunities within the industry, no, if you're just passing through wanting to get a website or app published with little knowledge.   You cover up the critical facts about the product which distorts the usefulness of the program to a certain criteria of users.    Addressing your suggestion that l might try Wappler -personally l would not waste time exploring  Wappler. As a professional or ex professional now, l would regard it as putting my eggs all in one basket. Meaning it would be difficult for me to find full time paid employment on the back of l could only use Wappler. Niche workflows usually result in less full time paid employment should you ever need to consider that in your career, which may span 25/30 years. I would be looking further ahead not just to tomorrow.   It's a case of different strokes for different folks. As l say lm just addressing the balance of opinions and views.   No-one mentions Wix here otherwise l would provide my views on that as a solution. I don't have an agenda against one particular solution, the boys over at Wappler have produced  a great product aimed at a specific user in my opinion. I have a vested interest in web development, the good, the bad and the ugly.........it would be a waste not to share those opinions and views ... View more

  Best of all, Wappler is a low code IDE making development many times faster than other development environments. By @BenPleysier   Just don't forget to add it uses a niche workflow which will isolate you from a myriad of resources where answers, so.utions and help can be found to more main stream web/app development approaches......be aware what you are buying into would be my advice. Once you have ALL the information and not just selective information you can make a decision about if a program is the right choice for your particular needs and requirements.   Before anyone jumps out of their pram lm just addressing the balance of information provided so anyone who cares to read these posts will be armed with less biased information.    I'm not anti Wappler, as it may seem, l'm just providing what l think may be critical information as to if its the right weapon of choice. For some it will be for others maybe not........they can determine that for themselves if they have a better understanding of the package. ... View more

I am sorry to have to contradict you. I know for a fact that what I said is true, Many devekopers that used Dreamweaver with the extensions from WebAssist and DMXZone have turned to Wappler.   By @BenPleysier     I don't doubt that at all.

By the way what IDE does means? By @abebel47900914   Integrated Development Environment. Which means its more sophisticated than just a normal html editor. It has built in options to assist you with your coding, providing suggestions and some now have AI as an option -Artificial Intelligence.  They can have extensions available  which make it easier to produce dynamically driven solutions or include components like slideshows, liaise with external APIs - Application Program Interface etc etc   Wappler is a fairly new application, 5 years old, which offers a myriad of options for non coders. It may be suitable depending on your requirements. If you are building something as an amateur, have no skill or knowledge about coding, are not intending to commit to web development or app building full time then it could prove useful. If on the other hand web development or app  building is your intended career choice then it would be advisable to learn to code. Ben has left a link in his reply......click on the word Wappler. ...

Just some further information:   When I download the tbhorn.jpg from your website it tells me the file can't be opened because its empty...............can you open the local version (on your machine) in an image editor?    If you can..........maybe try resaving using the RGB color space (rather than CYMK used in printing) and re-uploading it to the doteasy server as it seems some corruption has taken place somewhere, maybe in the upload process.

I could try to upload the site to a host which we used to use for our company to see if it works there - not entirely sure how I'd do that while the domain is at dotEasy. By @hillyb173062     You can test by just creating a folder on your company website and name it crowthorneorchestra then add all the files/folders and assets to that folder using the EXACT file/folder structure which is inside your current crowthorneorchestra folder, or what ever you have named that.   Then go to your companies website address in a browser and just add /crowthorneorchestra at the end.   The browser will find the index.html file as the starting point of the website. If it looks good then all the files and assets are correct and it would indicate a server issue is responsible for it not appearing correctly on the doteasy server.      ... View more

Maybe something funny is happening in the background. I've personally never seen a server set up like it. If a file or image is not available on your crowethorneorchestra.com domain address I get whisk away to  templates.doteasy.com, which shows the 404 error page............thats just a plain 'ugly' solution. The 404 error page, in a good server set up, should always remain on the same domain address.    If the images which are NOT showing are of the correct color space and they ARE in the correct folder then I can only think it may be the 'goofy' server set up, which is causing the issue, it might just be too 'complex' for its own good.   Of course if you had another remote server to test on it could be confirmed its either the current server set up or mis-configured links, etc which is the problem.   I always have multiple remote servers available to test on because its all too easy for these hosting companies to say 'nothing to do with us'. If you can prove its working on another server they usually intervene and do something about it.   You could try changing the images name and the link to: tbflute_1.jpg   Reupload the newly named image and the page in which you changed the link and see if the server then picks it up..........sometimes that works.   ...

What color space are the images that are not showing using? Can you open the formalorchestra.jpg image and check then open the tbflute.jpg image and see what the difference is?   Also check that the image name is EXACTLY the same as the link i.e., it must be - tbflute.jpg     ...
