Do a tracert on the address. If you're lucky, the names of the servers/hops will give a clue to their location.

If you do a Whois you can get the information on the domain of the user who owns the domain as it public.
This should give the address.
It will show either the server there on or the place were they bought the domain from as registrar too.

I am working to set up a version of my website for mobile users. The current site has only a few pages which will rarely change, so I am thinking to create a parallel site with XHTML that is very light weight (few images, no scripting and designed to need minimal CSS.) I have a few questions, though.
I design on a dev machine, so I cannot just use my phone to view the site as I work. Any suggestions for device emulators that can be run on a Windows 7 PC for testing various screen sizes and interfaces?
I know that mobile devices come in a very wide arrange of sizes. Any suggestions on the range of screen sizes I should test to accomodate the largest number of common phones?
I have found arguments for using automatic selection of site via the user agent string, or for allowing the user to manually select which version of the site, or allowing both (making the first selection based on the user agent, then having links that let the user switch to the other version.) Would anyone like to comment on which method is considered best?
Are there any other thoughts people could share about designing mobile websites? Pitfalls, tricks, must-haves?
Thanks for the feedback.

This is feature which you need to migrate through different screen sizes.
You should put your desired screen size width in beetween head element with relation to their css file.
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="(device-width:1280px)" href="styles.css">
What are wonderful world !

You don't need anything special to test the pages. Mobile browsers will work similar to normal PC browsers. You could use Firefox or IE to test, in IE you can set a custom browser resolution using the Developer Tools (included in IE8&IE9). This setting is found by hitting F12 in the browser and applying resize (Tools -> Resize -> Custom).
Common resolutions on mobile devices are:
- 480x800 (default Android 1.5 - 2.2)
- 540x960 (newer Android phones 2.3.3)
- 640x960 (iPhone4)
Keep in mind to make your design in such a way that the width of the resolution is scalable. That way it will work with all resolutions.

Hi,
I have question plz...
read this for a cloud plan on rackspace and they said there is no fixed amount bewcause it's pay as you use:
RAM : 2,048MB
Disk : 80GB
Hourly : 10.4p
Estimated Monthly : £79.04
Bandwidth Pricing
Bandwidth In : 5p / GB
Bandwidth Out : 12p / GB
can anyone tell me what's the 10.4p 9 (Hourly) for? is it the minimum or maximum? or what?
|
|
|
|
|
The 10.4p is the server rental cost per hour so the pricing is based on an estimate server usage per month.
e.g. 30Days x 24hrs x £0.104/hr = £74.88, they are probably also estimating an amount of bandwidth in and out to take upto the 79.04. However i cannot see this quoted on the site though.
(i did notice on the US site there is a 730hr/month estimate, and although not shown on the UK site, a $100 flat rate account fee/month!

It may be just a crazy idea, but, have you thought of asking them?

how does the redirect.aspx or the goto.aspx (in microsoft.com links) works? is it referring to a number in a databasethen checking what link is there inside the table record?
|
|
|
|
|
That would be a reasonable guess.

I am planning to develop a blog website. I want to know how to upload and save the media files such as photoz and videos similar to what Facebook or Youtube do it? is it better to save as binary file on the ftp folder or a blob in my database?
please discuss....
|
|
|
|

There are pros and cons to each method, one is not better than the other. It all depends on your usage and needs. Storing and serving files from disk will be faster but will require more maintenance. Using a database is slower since the files most be accessed first but is easier for backup and load balancing.

so you think facebook and youtube are using physical files not database blob?
|
|
|
|
|
In facebook, you can send the photo to an email address and then it will be automatically added to the Mobile Album in your profile? how to process the same using ASP.NET?
|
|
|
|
|
There are a number of ways this can be accomplished. It depends a great deal on your architecture, design and skills, which from your previous questions, I would say is out of reach for you at your current level.

if you are developing a blog website where user create profiles for their blogs, which way you'll prefer to use for the profile URL:
myProfile.myDomain.com
or:
myDomain.com/myProfile
and why please?
|
|
|
|
|
From a developers point of view I would prefer the mydomain.com/myProfile version. This way you don't have to update the DNS records constantly when a new user signs up or an old one is removed. Not to mention that it makes the domain management in apache or IIS easier.
That being said, the first option might not even be possible with most standard hosting packages, but you would have to check with your hosting provider.
|
|
|
|
|
I would go with myProfile.myDomain.com, for the simple reason that LiveJournal, WordPress, BlogSpot and most other blogger domains use this format. Bloggers have come to expect it, readers have come to expect it, and I think you will be shooting yourself in the foot if you do not offer it as the standard.
From an administrative standpoint, I think most of the DNS changes can be managed automatically, so there shouldn't be a lot of management overhead.

Hi,
Anyone knows where can I search for domains by number of characters? for example, I want a domain with a max of 8 characters? I tried GoDaddy but it's not allowing to specify the no of chars?
