In the past I have created websites with navigation that is aided by php $_GET variables. There was a layout that was implemented, and then content that was included based on the variable passed into the URL. I am now creating a website without any server-side help. I am wondering what are good ways to navigate pages without the redunda...
I've searched the web a bit, but all I found was abandoned projects and only CGI support. EDIT: C isn't just used for writing drivers or embedded systems. We have mailreaders, newsreaders, editors, etc. all written in C. I've written two BBS in the last century, before the web became popular. The libraries are getting better and you don...

I want to write a program in C/C++ that will dynamically read a web page and extract information from it. As an example imagine if you wanted to write an application to follow and log an ebay auction. Is there an easy way to grab the web page? A library which provides this functionality? And is there an easy way to parse the page to get ...
Is there currently some kind of application which can time to time check against a website on whether it has been updated? ...
I'm developing a web-based, turn-based strategy game which takes place on a 10x10 board. Each tile represents an area of land and has its own set of statistics (eg, income, population, fertility, natural resources). Each time the client loads it will download all of the information for the game (ie, loading the stats of only one tile i...

Web part A (Provider) invokes the method on Web Part B (Consumer) Web Part A Type t = myButton.GetType(); object[] p = new object[1]; p[0] = EventArgs....
I have just built up my first SVN server, along with the mod_dav_svn module for Apache so that I have a rudimentary web view into the repository. There appear to be lots of alternate/additional packages to make the web view more full-featured, along the lines of what you would see at Launchpad or Sourceforge. What's your favorite web v...
I have a number of C functions which implement mathematical formulae. To-date these have been tested for mathematical "soundness" by passing parameters through command line applications or compiling DLL's for applications like Excel. Is there an easy way of doing this testing over the web? Ideally something along the lines of: compi...

I want to create a simple logo and the the logo I have in mind will be a stylized 3D model with "iconic" lighting (front, left, even). The 3D model itself can be defined as a collection of geometric shapes. Programming is more my thing than design so I'm looking for advice on easy-to-use tools to create my 3D model and then create a lo...
I got to thinking about font (typeface) selection today. A site I did for work came with this professsionally done style guide that detailed colour selection, font selection, spacing, etc. It's the first time I'd seen anything like that but I have to admit, what they'd chosen did look good. Now I've previously read about colour theory...
I've been trying to collect analytics for my website and realized that Google analytics was not setup to capture data for visitors to www.example.com (it was only setup for example.com). I noticed that many sites will redirect me to www.example.com when I type only example.com. However, stackoverflow does exactly the opposite (redirects ...
I don't know why this is question is bugging me, but time after time I come back to the though - why not make websites in C++? So far I know of none (except a rumor about Yahoo). Most use PHP, Java or ASP.NET. Some are built on Ruby or Python, but even those are minorities. At the same time, looking at StackOverflow, it seems that C++ i...
I have a VB.NET web service that calls a third party web service. How can I view the SOAP message generated by .NET before it is sent to the third party web service and how can I see the SOAP response before it is serialized by .NET. When creating a standalone EXE, I see the Reference.vb file that is automatically generated, but don'...
I'm looking at this from the perspective of the plugin developer not the user of the browser, so I'm interested in what developers think is the ideal interface for plugins to a browser. For example: Plugins can reorder, create and destroy Tabs, Plugins can draw behind and in front of Browser pages etc. I'm particularly concerned about...

Hi, Pardon the dumb newbie question here; web programming isn't my forte... (blush) I have an aspx page running on a web server. I have a blob (byte array) containing any kind of binary file, plus a file name. I would like to push this file to be downloaded through the browser onto the client, and opened using whatever application is...
