I'm not attached to this site (as for as the forum code, design, etc)... I'm more attached to keeping the site itself alive. So if it's time to bulldoze this site, and rise up another... I don't mind either.
But I'm lost with the mysql (yes I am moderately experience in SQL) -- but I don't know why we need to change anything on SQL. User/Passwords are saved in a table, but we can use the adminCP to reset most passwords. Is ths not working or something?
OR what is this marque that is broken? I'm looking at this site in Chrome, and everything is working. It looks better than firefox or IE. I can't believe the HTML code and design held up in chrome.
Are you talking about the marquee where the sinnerz aliases are scrolling at the top right? (Its working for me here)??

Rebuilding a dead site would probably be a waste of time, we could still mirror this site off of my host, as long as you know how to mask. But again, nobody comes he all that much. Yes, the marquee I see stops at the letter D, then resets. It's cool, I like it. When I came back to the site after years, it hasn't worked right since. Im also using Chrome. Is it possible to add another page, if so, I could upload a bunch of stuff for others to use. I just didn't see this point of making another forum just for that. If it were busier here, then maybe. As far as the adminCP Tom has asked my not to mess with it till he could show me around, so, I havn't even clicked it

oh, I see the marque issue now, it stops after diablo. I should look at it with other browsers. it should just be a <marque></marque> tag or something.

I think I fixed it. I think chrome has issue with:
Code Sample | <marque width=256> |
I changed it to
Code Sample | <marque width=85%> |
and it seems to work better.

the scroll has always worked fine for me. IE 8. never had a problem.
as for the SQL question. it started with your redirect issues Sean. you had mentioned that some of the DL files were slow. we were talking about a place to host those files in a zip format. this way you could install at your will.
i had posted that this forum use to have FTP storage for all Sinnerz. but the password or user name seemed to get fubared years ago. Stray mentioned that this could be fixed with the SQL tools. i mentioned that i didnt have access to that part. and thats how it came about.

OH, no you couldn't fix FTP with SQL. Its a UNIX server, you would need to create a username + password for the FTP. I didn't remember it, so I logged in as my admin account, deleted the usernames create new ones and set theftp password. (posted in the other forum).
SQL is a database language; used to manage relational database supporting it, such as Oracle, MySQL, PostgreSQL... etc. If you know the database layout, the database names, and table, and field name, you can use SQL command to modify that database records; which I am guessing Stray thought it the ftp username/password could have been stored in a SQL database.
Nope.
What is stored in a MySQL database is the sin forum stuff... like the forum users, and passwords and access levels... which is seperated from the server. This forum writes its data like posts, replies, and so on to a SQL database. FTP is not part of the forum. But it runs off the same server the forum software is running on too.
Were you guys able to access the FTP?
