I was recently asked by a friend to help out with designing and creating a web site for someone. The problem is I have no idea what the going rate is. Can someone give me a clue please?
The site is ASP and SQL Server, probably about 6-8 pages, nothing I haven't done before, just not for my own pay.

This is a lucrative process and usually bargained between the programmer and the client.
It seems the going rate is whatever you and your client believe is reasonable. Some people charge by the hour, some charge by the page. This is entirely up to you. I don't know what companies usually start out their web developers for pay, but if you researched this and incorporated that into your rate, you'll probably come close to some reasonable rates. you may also want to browse around for companies that charge to do web pages and analyize their rates (by the page or by the hour)

I had the same dilemma. When I looked around at how much professional companies charged, the lowest amount I found for a "starter site" (~6-10 pages) was $2500.00 USD. The prices rose exponentially from there, depending on the features added. Since I don't consider myself a "professional" web developer, I bid below the minimum figure, but it was still a nice check to receive! Also, I do pretty good work (IMHO ), so I feel the client was getting a pretty good deal.

When I designed and implemented webpages a couple of years ago now, I used to charge a flat rate of £120 an hour (about $190 or so). That seemed to be acceptable for a group of designers back then. Of course though, I was the only designer . Nowadays I beleive the going rate is a little higher. The best way to find out is to phone/email a couple of companies and ask them what they charge per hour/page, and base your price off that.

Hi,
At the top of my ASP I have this code:
<%@ Language=VBScript %>
<%
if instr(lcase(Request.ServerVariables("HTTP_REFERER")), _
"login.asp") = 0 and _
instr(lcase(Request.ServerVariables("HTTP_REFERER")), _
"signinagain.asp") = 0 then
Response.Write "Please register or login first."
' Send the user back to the login ASP
Response.Redirect "signinagain.asp"
end if
%>
which will control the access to the ASP page and view the contents.
But I get this error message knowing that I am not posting any information in the header or the URL!
Please register or login first.
Response object error 'ASP 0156 : 80004005'
Header Error
/twcb/bizform.asp, line 13
The HTTP headers are already written to the client browser.
Any HTTP header modifications must be made before writing page content.
Any help is much appreciated!
Cheers!

This error usually occurs when you have not set the buffer to true. At the beginning of the page, just say response.buffer = true

Hmmm... something is quite strange here.
<br />
str = String(str).split(defaultDateSep)<br />
will actually return a javascript error (only in Netscape) stating that [object Object] is not a constructor.
This code actually performs a few times correctly before it crashes. This one's leaving me puzzled. Anyone have any clue what might be happening with this?
Thanks!

Try splitting the code out into multiple lines. This way if/when it crashes you will have a better idea of what the problem is.

Which version of netscape are you having problems in? I tried your code in NN 4.7 and 6.1 and it worked fine. If you are doing it in NN 3, it does not support the split method.
Here is a more robust way of coding this though.
var sTemp = new String(str);
var sStrings = sTemp.split(defaultDateSep);
Hope this helps.

thanks for the help. It turns out it was linked to someone using the following line earlier in the program
<br />
var Array = arrayTemp;<br />
oh well...
the frustration of having to maintain someone elses code.

How do you delete a element from an array and then shift the remaining elements to fill the gap?
|
|
|
|
|
To acheive the effect of actually deleting and shrinking the array simply just shift the remaining elements first then use slice(int begin, int end) to grab the all the elements but the last one.
function Pop(SomeArray, Element)
{
//push elements up from Element to SomeArray.length
return SomeArray.slice(0, SomeArray.length-1);
}

Hello. I was wondering if anybody knows of a javascript tab menu that looks like excel tabs on the bottom of the program.(i.e. "Sheet1" "Sheet2")
THX,
Caleb

You might be able to create one by developing a behavior. Unfortunately the page would be Internet explorer only. There is always an applet but if you're trying for an full client-side version you might have to settle for box tabs and develop them using style sheets and some DHTML. (play around with the border and span/div stuff.
For more information on behaviors check out the microsoft MSDN site
Behaviors
For style sheets, try searching for Cascading Style Sheets.

How can I open a new window at the top left corner of the screen in IE using javascript?
I know by giving screenX=0,screenY=0 would open the new window at the top left corner in Netscape, but this doesn't for IE.

Try this function and modify as desired.
function displaypage(page)
{
mywindow = window.open(page,"outsidepage","toolbar=yes,location=yes,directories=yes,status=yes,menubar=yes,scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes,width=800,height=600,left=0,top=0");
mywindow.focus();
return false;
}

Ok, I'll try reposting this since the forum code doesn't allow you to scroll to the right.
Here is the function again:
function displaypage(page)
{
mywindow = window.open(page,"outsidepage",
"toolbar=yes,location=yes,
directories=yes,status=yes,menubar=yes,
scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes,width=800,
height=600,left=0,top=0");
mywindow.focus();
return false;
}

I’m just curious to know why so many people use VBScript for server side ASP programming. Why use it when it seems to be so much slower than JScript?
I’ve been running a series of test scripts that accomplish the same task. They are in pairs, one in JScript and the other in VBScript. I run the scripts multiple times in succession and then use the overall time to work out the average time taken for one execution. JScript outperforms VBScript in terms of speed by as much as 20 times in some cases (What took 0.04 seconds with JScript, took 0.76 seconds in VBScript). Ok, that’s still quick you might be saying, but when you have thousands of the things executing at the same time, speed is an issue.
A quick search on the net will reveal that this has been known for some time...
So, why use VBScript?
P.S. After I wrote this and went to try to post it in the forums, I noticed that they suddenly slowed down for about ten minutes. Seeing as this site uses VBScript, I wonder if that was anything to do with it...
Chees,
James

Does anyone know of a free ActiveX tree control (with available source) that could be used to create a dynamic navigation tree on a website? I'm aiming to create something similar to MSDN's left-side navigation menu, except I can't use the ASP.NET objects that are used on that site, since I'm doing the programming in PHP.
Anyone have any links? I'd appreciate it.
