My page is file.autohotkey.net/Titan, if a viewer removes the /Titan she/he will see the file manager login page. I prefer to redirect them to the main autohotkey.net page so they know what it's all about.
go.autohotkey.net/Titan is the same thing as the above but a redirect. I do not wish to remove this because I might expand it's uses in future (e.g. a hit counter for FM users). For now, you can pretend it doesn't exist

Can you create an xfile.* that always redirects to login?...then I can just add x to my url & be able to login (have it ignore any path). I know a login.* subdomain would be more logical, but when typing it's easier to add or remove an x to visit my site or login...& I just want it to accept any path, so I don't have to delete that either when switching from visiting my site to logging in...on the other hand it could rewrite any path to the FM url of that path...? Could file.autohotkey.net/file or file.autohotkey.net/login redirect?...currently when changing the url from visiting my site to logging in, I have to...chop off my path, remove the subdomain & then add file to the other side of the url...when going back to visiting my site & have to undo it all again...

Thanks for the suggestion, file.autohotkey.net will redirect to autohotkey.net but file.autohotkey.net/file and file.autohotkey.net/login will redirect to autohotkey.net/file. I have contacted the server company requesting a reconfig of the apache settings so we just have to wait till they complete it.

I was giving an example (a pretty lousy one) - my intentions are to make go.autohotkey.net/(xyz) useful for file specific downloads. I created it too early but I'll leave it there for the sake of it.
| JSLover wrote: | | ...um...I'm trying...it's not working... |
If it's causing a real disturbance I'll remove it for you. It's an obsolete feature thats left there for the purpose of future expansion and testing.
| JSLover wrote: | | Do you always link with the trailing slash? |
I can't quote exactly but W3C recommended to use trailing slashes for extensionless URI's. According to W3C's Link Checker, autohotkey.com/forum/ is correct whereas autohotkey.com/forum is incorrect.
Regarding the .htaccess and .htpasswd, they're now allowed to be used.
Finally, I was spelling cache phonetically (with an 's') - easy mistake, it won't happen again.

PHP is disabled by default, do you think I should allow it? I'm assuming that the file manager disabled PHP for security restrictions - I would certainly not like any hackers to exploit extra features (like PHP if I allow it).
Regarding .ah* files, what are they and why would you like to use them? I've added .ahi and .ah to the list of ASCII file extensions but I don't think I can do wildcards.

...I'm not sure what security problems could arise...I can't think of what all php can do that's bad...read/write/delete files?...what user do php scripts run as? Can any php script access all file manager/user files? If so...then that's a bad idea...but if you could run php scripts under a wrapper to drop permissions to nobody...it might be safer?
| Titan wrote: | | Regarding .ah* files, what are they and why would you like to use them? |
... .ahi is an extension I'm creating (or using whether or not other people do)...for AutoHotkey Include...include files aren't normally supposed to be "run" so a different extension makes sense...plus I just like it...
| Titan wrote: | | I've added .ahi and .ah... |

| Titan wrote: | | ...but I don't think I can do wildcards. |
...ok...that's all I meant...you could have .ahk .ahi & keep adding .ah? extensions as I think of em (lol) or try to do a wildcard one...but it don't take a wildcard...so ok...
.htaccess still don't work...control panel says they're ok, but trying to create one (a blank one) gets an error (403)...creating a blank "htaccess" file works...then renaming it to ".htaccess" gets 403...
There is no way to "Open URL" on the root dir cuz I can't get a dir list for my root dir (not the files in my root dir...the root dir itself)...can you make the / at the top link to the "Open URL" for the root dir (leave the image going to the FM root but make the slash go to the real url).
I can't create directories anymore (403 error).
Can you set the default to show more than 6 files per page...can you make it show all pages by default?...or turn on a user setting to always show all pages?

There was a recent problem with creating files and folders because of a server firewall issue (I don't know the full technical breakdown of it). Coincidentally, this happened almost straight after I allowed the use of .htaccess and .htpasswd. The issue is now resolved, you can make files and folders as normal again. However, just as a security measure I'm disallowing .htaccess and .htpasswd again. Moreover, I have decided not to allow PHP.
>Can you set the default to show more than 6 files per page...
The maximum numder of files displayed per page is now 25 becuase I feel this is a good compromise between loading speed and usability/navigation.
>There is no way to "Open URL" on the root dir cuz I can't get a dir list for my root dir (not the files in my root dir...the root dir itself)...
Sorry I don't understand - there is no "Open URL" link for the root directory.
> ...ok...that's all I meant...you could have .ahk .ahi & keep adding .ah? extensions as I think of em (lol) or try to do a wildcard one
You could use .txt or .inc files. I would not like to keep adding unused extensions to the FM settings.

...ok so why were you going to allow it?...can you do the other thing I mentioned...to allow directory listings...do you understand how you can end up with it defaulting to not list dirs, but I'd be able to override by changing permissions on the dir?
| Titan wrote: | | The maximum numder of files displayed per page is now 25... |
...alot better than 6...is there any cookie way to let users pick "view all" & it remember it...I'm just wondering...25 might work for me...but 6 was annoying...
| Titan wrote: | | ...there is no "Open URL" link for the root directory. |

...ick...what I did before you had .ahi was create my.ahi (that I couldn't edit) & create a symlink to it called my.ahi.ahk & it let me edit it thru the symlink...
| Titan wrote: | | I would not like to keep adding unused extensions to the FM settings. |
...I know that...the "keep adding...as I think of them" was just a joke...I was just trying to see if wildcards would work...so you wouldn't have to keep adding more. You can remove .ah if you want...I never said I used that. "...unused extensions..."...I do use .ahi...I like it for includes.
Ok this might take a little to explain...occasionally none of the JavaScript buttons work...the ones that call JavaScript functions...like open_popup() (no not a popup blocker issue...), del(), rename()...etc...sometimes you load the page, click, it works, next time you move to a different dir/reload the page...none of em work...reload, they work, reload, they don't...then while investigating this I loaded the JavaScript file it uses in the browser...
...click reload slowly, at least 10 times...your 3rd or 4th time will probably get a 403, reload again, it shows the JavaScript...the times that it randomly gets a 403, none of the JavaScript functions load/work. Also...
...causes an error (in NS7.2)...
...can you if that for IE only? I rewrote it...I didn't test, cuz I don't know exactly how to test what it fixes, but my version should do what yours does, with cleaner code...(but I don't know what the i=i-1 is for in the loop...seems to me it would keep looping over the same image...but whatever...{I rewrote it to i--...same thing but better})...scratch that...I just tested it...i-- is needed. Why in the world do you use that anti-select script?...you care if someone selects?
Because of the 6 files per page limit I was going to move some files to a .hold dir...but upon creating it...I couldn't see it...cuz it begins with a dot...so then I tried to use the change directory input box to go there directly...but it said "The directory you tried to access is hidden, using the user's root instead"...then I tried to force rename it (I can't access a checkbox, but I constructed the right url) & that failed with something about permission...then I tried to delete using the same method as rename & that failed too...so now I have a .hold dir I can't use/rename/delete...also while testing that I created a .test dir & that is in the same position as .hold...can you rename these to undo.hold & undo.test (or undo-hold & undo-test if it don't like the dot in there)...or...if it don't cause any security issues...can you allow these hidden dirs? I really can't believe it allowed me to create something I can't use/rename/delete.
There don't appear to be a way to copy to the same dir with a different name...I can only edit & change the name before I save or copy to a different dir, with the same name...is there any option that can be enabled?
The "logostrip" causes NS7.2 to have ever so slightly some horiz scrolling...not much, but enough that that horiz scroll bar is there...this JS fixes it for the duration of viewing one page...
| Code: | | javascript:void(document.getElementById('logostrip').style.width='99%') |
...can you make that div 99%?
Can you make "view source" be 13px? My browser is set to 13px but it don't seem to be working even tho you don't specify any size (even when I go to 48px)...???
PS...check out my intense JavaScript to redirect my long url (with index.html) to the short...(hehehe)...it will...1) bust frames...2) remove any extraneous "index.html"...3) rewrite the long to the short...(I haven't applied it to most of my pages yet tho)...

I have allowed directory listing for you (only /JSLover).

I added a 'My Website' link on the toolbar, I hope this helps.
| JSLover wrote: | | ...can you make that div 99%? |
That would mean Firefox and IE users (which are the large majority) would see it wrongly. A small horizontal scroll bar isn't so bad

I've now increased the font size, thanks.
Regarding the javascripts:
autohotkey.net/assets/javascript.js is a hack fix for IE PNG support. I will improve this script to only have effect on IE so error messages in other browsers don't occur.
As for the FM javascript, I suggest that you update your browser (NS8.x is the latest I believe) or switch to something more common, like Firefox.

BUT!...that JavaScript problem is not related to it being NS7.2...the file that is supposed to return valid JS is SOMETIMES...a 403 error (not valid JS)...a different browser won't help the JS file load right.
My version of your JS file is all you need, you don't need to sniff for Internet Explorer...just check to see if that function exists before calling it...(& remove that annoying {if I used IE} selection blocker)...
What about my missing directories?...can you rename them?

I've improved the CSS code and it appears fine in the browsers I tested (my precious Firefox and IE).
| JSLover wrote: | | ...NS8 is not a "drop in" replacement for 7.2...it's a completely different browser... |
I never knew that... I couldn't find 7.2 to download so I assumed that 8.x was an upgrade replacement of some sort.

The javascript file has the same properties as the other files on the server and it's existance is not difference from the other files. Since I personally had no problems and becuase nobody else reported a problem of this nature I'm left to think that it's your internet connection/browser/firewall/AV/proxy thats causing the problem.
| JSLover wrote: | | What about my missing directories?...can you rename them? |
Sorry? try visiting file.autohotkey.net/JSLover/test/empty to see that I've allowed directory listing for you only.
Btw. AutoHotkey.net (ex. FM) is now WCAG1.0 WAI Level Triple-A Conformant - I done that just for you

Either you're refreshing so rapidly or using extra tools that's making the server think you're launching some kind of DoS attack (less likely) or your ISP/browser/computer has issues with downloading files (firewall? av? ISP relay?). I checked the server stats and logs, there have been no instances whereby the server had to perform exceptionally due to heavy load or act strangely for other reasons. I've tried reloading myself and I get no problems. I haven't been notified of this issue by anybody else.

I apologize; I used -Indexes instead of the +Indexes when I created a .htaccess for your directory.

W3C WGAC1.0 WAI P2 (doesn't that sound weird) ensures that you view pages correctly provided your browser is updated to it's latest version.

Could this cache issue be the cause of the javascript flaw on your computer?

I at least want to click Tools -> Options once & change a preference to move the menu to Edit -> Preferences. I believe Firefox originally did it to ease IE people coming to Firefox...but they don't care about NS people coming to Firefox... |
Please don't associate me with 'everyone else'. I personally prefer logical and structured usability. The programs options determines the way it works, not your intangible preferences. People like yourself who like to bend the rules to have something easier must find 'Edit > Preferences' better. This is probably why I like W3C and you don't

I have deleted the .hold, .test and test directories for you.

You're having another one of those cache issues again
Thanks for your continued interest in the FM.

...no I said slowly...& I only do that as a TEST to see why sometimes the buttons don't work. Check your access log for a 403 returned for js.php...grep it for HERE-TITAN-HERE...I'm gonna access the php file a few times with that on the query string (after the question mark). Ok...there go looky loggy...

...I hit preview at least 10 times (at least...more like 20) before I post & I make some changes after...sometimes the word wrapping makes a difference when it's posted & it don't wrap in the same place as in preview.

...I only said "cache issue" cuz the browser don't expect the web to change that much in a single session...once it noticed it did change it updated it...not a full blown "issue". Yes, it could be the cause of the JavaScript flaw...I don't think it's caching the js.php at all...BECAUSE it's a php file...if it was a static .js (with a non-changing modified date) it would cache the file & the server wouldn't get mad...the browser is doing what it's told in the Modified header...likely "always modified" because it's a dynamic php file...my browser is following the standards...your server is not...telling my browser it's "always new" & complaining when it keeps getting a new copy...

I was clarifying the situation. You have to remember that this is not a one-on-one discussion and other users might want to know whats going on. I just wrapped it up.
| JSLover wrote: | | I'm gonna access the php file a few times with that on the query string (after the question mark). Ok...there go looky loggy... |
Oh don't do that, you'll just waste more bandwidth
I've made a note to investigate the javascript file further.
| JSLover wrote: | | ...I prefer the way Netscape always was. |
That's your decision and I'm not going to argue with that. I was only suggesting that the later version of Netscape may work better due to fewer bugs and whatnot.
| JSLover wrote: | | ...preferences... |
Options... computers don't act on feelings/preferences, they work on instructions. Therefore 'options' (which is like 'settings') makes more sense to me. But again, you're entitled to your views and I will not argue with that.
| JSLover wrote: | | ...the W3C are morons... |
If you have personal issues with the W3C then by all means say what you like. The W3C are well established in this field so I take their guidelines at face value and try to make my websites conform to them. Since it does no harm (only benefits the browser), I think it's allright for me to do so.
| JSLover wrote: | | ...I bolded RENAME...I didn't want em deleted, I wanted to check em 1st. |
Those directories were empty so I deleted them - you can create them again with two clicks (I'm sorry if that's too much for you).
| JSLover wrote: | | ...no bung-hole...I said you link to the Triple-A...the text did change...the place it goes...didn't...I hit shift reload this time to make sure...text = AA...link = AAA... |
My bad, no one's perfect

I have my own managed server

Maybe
Anothing thing, please don't quote bits of what I said - it often gives a wrong message.
