Glossary

  • FrontPage

    FrontPage


    Microsoft FrontPage (later full name Microsoft Office FrontPage) was a WYSIWYG HTML editor and web site administration tool from Microsoft for the Microsoft Windows line of operating systems. It was part of Microsoft Office application suite from 1997 to 2006. A Macintosh version was also released in 1998. Microsoft FrontPage has since been replaced by Microsoft Expression Web, which was released in December 2006.

    One of the notable features of FrontPage is its built-in support for automated web templates. The main distinction between these templates and HTML templates generated by other products is that FrontPage templates include an automatic navigation system that creates animated buttons for pages that have been added by the user. It also creates a multi-level navigation system on the fly using the buttons and the structure of the web site.

  • e-Commerce

    e-Commerce


    Electronic Commerce is exactly analogous to a marketplace on the Internet.

    Electronic Commerce (also referred to as EC, e-commerce eCommerce or ecommerce) consists primarily of the distributing, buying, selling, marketing and servicing of products or services over electronic systems such as the Internet and other computer networks.

    The information technology industry might see it as an electronic business application aimed at commercial transactions; in this context, it can involve electronic funds transfer, supply chain management, e-marketing, online marketing, online transaction processing, electronic data interchange (EDI), automated inventory management systems, and automated data collection systems. Electronic commerce typically uses electronic communications technology of the World Wide Web, at some point in the transaction's lifecycle, although of course electronic commerce frequently depends on computer technologies other than the World Wide Web, such as databases, and e-mail, and on other non-computer technologies, such as transportation for physical goods sold via e-commerce.

  • Domain name

    Domain name


    On the Internet, the domain name stores and associates many types of information with domain names; most importantly, it translates domain names (computer hostnames) to IP addresses. It also lists mail exchange servers accepting e-mail for each domain. In providing a worldwide keyword-based redirection service, DNS is an essential component of contemporary Internet use.

    Useful for several reasons, the domain name pre-eminently makes it possible to attach easy-to-remember domain names (such as "ec2biz.com") to hard-to-remember IP addresses (such as 202.123.84.161). People take advantage of this when they recite URLs and e-mail addresses. In a subsidiary function, the domain name system makes it possible for people to assign authoritative names without needing to communicate with a central registrar each time.

  • HTML

    HTML


    short for HyperText Markup Language, is the predominant markup language for the creation of web pages. It provides a means to describe the structure of text-based information in a document — by denoting certain text as headings, paragraphs, lists, and so on — and to supplement that text with interactive forms, embedded images, and other objects. HTML is written in the form of labels (known as tags), created by greater-than signs (>) and less-than signs (<). HTML can also describe, to some degree, the appearance and semantics of a document, and can include embedded scripting language code which can affect the behavior of web browsers and other HTML processors.

    HTML is also often used to refer to content of the MIME type text/html or even more broadly as a generic term for HTML whether in its XML-descended form (such as XHTML 1.0 and later) or its form descended directly from SGML (such as HTML 4.01 and earlier).

  • SWF (Flash Animations)

    SWF (Flash Animations)


    SWF is a proprietary vector graphics file format produced by the Flash software from Adobe (formerly Macromedia). Intended to be small enough for publication on the web, SWF files can contain animations or applets of varying degrees of interactivity and function. SWF is also sometimes used for creating animated display graphics and menus for DVD movies, and television commercials.

  • 微軟證實Hotmail個人資料遭竊取

    微軟證實Hotmail個人資料遭竊取


    根據BBC(英國廣播公司)報導,微軟公司的Windows Live Hotmail遭到網絡黑客入侵,超過萬個hotmail客戶資料遭到竊取,這些資料多數來自歐洲,微軟並證實遭竊取的密碼都是正確的。

    科技網誌neowin.net說,黑客除了盜取帳號密碼之外,又把盜取到的資料全數公布到網路上,超過上萬個hotmail帳戶的細節,2009年10月1日被貼上一個讓人分享密碼的網站pastebin.com。

    Neowin聲稱這些帳戶可能是被黑或是利用網路釣魚搜集而來。網路釣魚攻擊者利用發送釣魚郵件給受害者,受害者點選後,會被導向釣魚網頁,就會洩漏了個人的機密資訊給予攻擊者,如個人的信用卡號碼、密碼、帳號等。

    微軟目前表示,他們已經知悉此事,並正在積極了解及處理中。這件事透露出網路資訊安全的疑慮,若果個人資料遭到竊取,可能會有更多後續麻煩的事端。

    • 新增或修改過的廣告屬即時生效,如若廣告是啟用中、標籤放置正確、以及顯示條件及設定是正確的情況下,廣告應隨即在網站展示,若未有顯示則需再次細心檢查設定是否無誤,模版是否已放置“標籤”

    • 同一群組多於一個廣告,這些廣告的隨機展示。每一項廣告都會有各自的“瀏覽次數 / 擊點次數”統計,但“自訂HTML”動態廣告或“自訂文字”將不會提供“擊點次數”統計

    • 由於設置“自訂群組”及“自訂廣告”需修改“網站模版”的HTML,若設置出錯,將令網站不能正常顯示,所以強列建議由專業及具經驗者進行,而我們並不提供上述的免費支援服務

    為令“網上商店”能配合您的運營環境,所以系統需要進行“本地化”的“初始設定”。

    “本地化”的意思是整個系統能以您指定的環境執行各種任務,包括指定的“貨幣匯率”、“語系”、訂單狀態”、以及“國別和地區”。

    這份指南將介紹“本地化”中的各項設定。

    “貨幣設定”包含以下資料:
    • 名稱
      貨幣的“英文”名稱

    • 代碼
      貨幣的代碼,必需為三字元的英文大寫,例如“HKD”,詳情可參考 http://www.oanda.com

    • 左邊符號
      貨幣的左邊符號,例如“$”

    • 右邊符號
      貨幣的右邊符號

    • 小數點符號
      貨幣的小數點符號,例如“.”

    • 千位符號
      貨幣的千位符號,例如“,”

    • 顯示小數點後幾位

    • 匯率比值
      如使用“更新匯率”功能,則無需更改此值,如屬“預設貨幣”,則必需為“1”

    • 預設值
      選擇整個“商店”和“系統”的預設貨幣,預設貨幣以外的均視為“參考貨幣”

    “語系設定”包含以下資料:
    • 名稱
      系統內置,不能修改

    • 代碼
      系統內置,不能修改

    • 預設值
      選擇整個“商店”和“系統”的預設語系

    “訂單狀態”包含以下資料:
    • 訂單狀態名稱
      針對顧客訂單處理流程的狀態“中英文”名稱,一般預設狀態為“等待處理”

    • 收益狀態
      系統辦認是否屬實際收益的訂單,例如“貨運中”可設為“收益狀態”,“等待處理”、“訂單已取消”則不應設成“收益狀態”

    • 預設值
      針對訂單的首個狀態

    “國別”包含以下資料:
    • 名稱
      “中英文”國別名稱,除自訂一些新增國別外,一般情況下使用系統預設的便足夠而無需修改

    • ISO Code (2)
      二位字母“國家名稱及代碼”

    • ISO Code (3)
      三位字母“國家名稱及代碼”

    • 地址格式
      選擇合適的地址格式,為配合國際化,一般預設狀態為“2”
      1. city / country
      2. city, state / country
      3. state / country
      4. postcode / country
      5. city / country

    “地區”包含以下資料:
    • 地區名稱
      “英文”地區名稱

    • 地區碼
      二位字母的地區碼,此地區碼不同於“國家代碼”,請勿混淆

    • 國別名稱
      選擇該地區所屬的“國別”

    針對“支援服務記錄”的動作:

    • 編輯
      修改已經建立的“設定值”。

    • 刪除
      刪除已經建立的“設定值”,己運作的商店不宜進行刪除動作

    注意事項:
    • 除“初始設定”外,營運中的商店網站不應再修改上述各項“本地化”設定,否則引致損壞已儲存的各種資料

    • “貨幣設定”裡被設成預設值的貨幣,將被視為整個商店及系統的基礎貨幣,若有更改,需自行把各項如“產品價錢”、“運費”、“手續費”等汲及金額的數值進行更新,系統不會自動更新這些資料

    • 系統不會自動更新“貨幣匯率”,如需更新請點擊“貨幣設定”的“更新匯率”按鈕

    • 除“訂單狀態”可按需要增減外,其他本地化設定建議使用系統預設值

    Zen Cart


    Zen Cart truly is the art of e-commerce; free, user-friendly, open source shopping cart software. The ecommerce web site design program is being developed by a group of like-minded shop owners, programmers, designers, and consultants that think ecommerce web design could be and should be done differently.

    Some shopping cart solutions seem to be complicated programming exercises instead of responding to users needs, Zen Cart puts the merchants and shoppers requirements first. Similarly, other shopping cart software programs are nearly impossible to install and use without an IT degree, Zen Cart can be installed and set-up by anyone with the most basic web site building and computer skills.

    There are hundreds of shopping cart programs available, but none come close to offering the level of options, features and support available with Zen Cart. Even the commercial programs have a hard time competing.

  • How to enable Mod-Rewrite Module

    How to enable Mod-Rewrite Module


    This module uses a rule-based rewriting engine (based on a regular-expression parser) to rewrite requested URLs on the fly. It supports an unlimited number of rules and an unlimited number of attached rule conditions for each rule, to provide a really flexible and powerful URL manipulation mechanism. The URL manipulations can depend on various tests, of server variables, environment variables, HTTP headers, or time stamps. Even external database lookups in various formats can be used to achieve highly granular URL matching.

    In order to enable Mod_Rewrite for your site you should create a text file called .htacccess in the directory where you wish the rewrite rules to apply.

    The first line of this text file should be:
    RewriteEngine On

    After that you can place your rewrite rules. Here are some examples for Joomla's SEF option:
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} (/|.htm|.php|.html|/[^.]*)$ [NC]
    RewriteRule ^(content/|component/) index.php

    Many applications come with ready to use rewrite rules that can be found in a file called htaccess.txt.

    Upload this file into the root of your domain(e.g. httpdocs). The changes take effect immediately.

    Transferring your website to Focus Network Company


    Already hosted with another provider? Want to move your website to Focus Network Company?

    This tutorial will outline the steps required to migrate your website and email accounts to your new account in Focus Network Company.

    • Step 1 - Backup your files
      First of all, you need to download the site from your old host. You can do this in one of two ways:
      • Backup your site through Plesk
        If your old host uses Plesk, and the Backup feature is enabled, you can download your entire site in a couple of clicks.
      • Backup your site via FTP
        If your host does not use Plesk or they do not have the backup function enabled, then you should backup your site using FTP. Typically you need to connect to your website via FTP, download your www or public_html folder (the names for this folder differ; it is the folder that contains your website).

        The tutorials below will show you how to connect and transfer files using the popular free FTP client software.
        1. Download and install FTP client software, such as Filezilla, CuteFTP, WS_FTP
        2. Connecting to your website with FTP client software
        3. Transferring files to/from your website with FTP client software

    • Step 2 - Backup and restore your MySQL databases
      If you do not have any MySQL databases, you can skip to Step 3.

      To transfer MySQL databases from your old host to Focus Network Company, there are two methods you can use:
      • Backup/Restore MySQL databases via Plesk
        This uses the same Plesk function as the file backup section does. you can backup your database in a couple of clicks.
      • Backup/Restore MySQL databases via phpMyAdmin
        If your host does not use Plesk/the backup function is disabled, you can backup and restore MySQL databases using phpMyAdmin. Follow the tutorials below for instructions on how to import and export MySQL databases in phpMyAdmin.
        How do I export or backup a MySQL Database
        How do I import a MySQL Database / Creating or Importing a Database

    • Step 3 - Upload your files to your account
      Now you need to upload your files to your Focus Network Company account. If you backed up your files using the Plesk backup feature, you can upload them easily through your Plesk by following the tutorial above ("Restoring Data From Backup Archives").

      If you backed up your files using FTP, simply connect to your account using FTP client software and upload your files into the httpdocs folder.

    • Step 4 - Create email address on your account
      Before you point your domain to your Focus Network Company account, its a good idea to create the email addresses through Plesk first. Simply create the email addresses you want on your account by following the tutorial below:
      How to setup Your Emails on PLESK Control Panel / Creating Mailboxes

    • Step 5 - Point your domain to your account
      By this point your account with Focus Network Company should mirror your account at your current host; you should have uploaded your site files and MySQL databases and created your email accounts. Once you are sure you have completed all the steps above, its time to change the nameservers of your domain.

      Login to your domain control panel at your registrar and modify the nameservers for your domain to the ones we sent you in the welcome email.

      How to point my existing domain name to "Focus Network Company" server?

      Once you have done this, wait for your domain to propagate. This can take between 6-72 hours, depending on your location. To see if your domain has resolved correctly to your Focus Network Company account, type your domain name into the tool below and hit Lookup. On the next page scroll down to the Whois Record section. If the Focus Network Company nameservers are listed here, then your domain name has resolved.

      http://www.whois.sc

      Check your domain name is displaying correctly, and then proceed to the next step.

    • Step 6 - Cancel your account at your old host
      Once you have updated your nameservers and your domain name has resolved correctly, you can cancel your account at your old host.

      Make sure you backed up all your files; getting data back after you have cancelled your service with a provider can be quite difficult.

    • Congratulations, you have succesfully moved your website to Focus Network Company!

  • What is mail policy and email limits?

    What is mail policy and email limits?


    Mail Limits

    There is an maximum amount of emails which can be send out per hour is 30 emails from one account or 300 emails per domain and 700 emails per day, this limit is also applied "Web Hosting Service", "Towards Mailing Lists" and "Online E-Store System". Focus Network Company reserves the violation of any of the foregoing may result in immediate deactivate or termination upon any indication of such activity without notice.

    Many of our servers have a 60 pop checks per hour limit per email address.? If you go over this you're likely to get a wrong password error message saying login incorrect. Just wait an hour and it will automatically unlock you. to prevent this from happening again make sure to disable auto checking or at least set it to something higher such as 10 minutes.

    Any mailing list larger than 2000 will require a dedicated server solution from us. Note: dividing one large list into smaller lists to get below this limit is not allowed.

    We have a maximum size of emails of 50 MByte and under, any email over 50 MByte will be automatically rejected, please use your FTP to transfer big files!

    Mailing Lists Rules

    1. Anytime you're sending a message no matter how large your e-mail list is you must throttle it.? We recommend you throttle it to at the very least sending 1 email every 6 seconds. If the mailing list software you're using does not allow you to throttle you must switch to something else. We recommend Mailman which can be found in your control panel under PLESK. If you do not throttle and you try sending let's say 1500 emails the server will try sending all 1500 in 1 second which is not possible. This will cause the server load to go very high and for the entire server to be sluggish until this process is completed. It is our job to keep the server up and running without being sluggish. Anyone who causes the servers load to go high will be suspended and the process will be terminated. If you choose not to throttle you will most likely be suspended for crashing the server without notice.

    2. Any mailing list over 100 emails is only allowed to be sent to during off-peak times to prevent high server loads. Off peak times qualify as all day Saturday and Sunday, and 1am - 8 am eastern time M-F.

    3. You are not allowed to mail to a mailing list you were given or purchased. This is spamming because they never agreed to you personally sending them mail. We do not care and how you justify it this is spam and will result in termination of the offending account.

    4. Any unsolicited e-mail being sent will result in termination of the offending account without notice. We take a zero tolerance stance against sending of unsolicited e-mail.

  • Setup fetch email using Google Gmail

    Setup fetch email using Google Gmail


    Why Should I Use Fetch Mail Instead of an Email Forwarder?

    We are committed to improving the stability of services.

    Unfortunately, it is very common for mail forwarding to cause blacklisting with many large email providers. This most commonly occurs when large amounts of mail are forwarded and then marked as spam after it has been received in the end user's inbox. This results in our server's sending reputation being penalized since it was the last server to send the mail. Ultimately, our server will be blacklisted with the email provider and it will affect all of other users on the same server.

    A solution to this is to disabled mail forwarding altogether. change to using mail fetcher, you can access mail in a other system without having the mail routed through that system's server. This way, you can mark a message as spam without it affecting our email server's reputation.

    The instructions below provide steps on how to fetch mail from our server so you can access them via Google Mail.

    Google Mail Fetcher is easy to set up and free to use. It uses POP3 to pull all the contents of an email box into Gmail and then parses the emails for spam. Mail Fetcher can download messages from up to five other email accounts, allowing you to centralize all your email in Gmail.

    Once Mail Fetcher is set up, Google will check those accounts on a regular basis, and new mail will appear automatically in Gmail.

    • Log into your Gmail account.
    • Click the gear icon in the upper right corner of the page and select Settings.
    • Click the Settings and Accounts and Import tab and locate the Check mail from other accounts (using POP3) section.
    • Click Add a POP3 mail account you own. (Note: Google does not allow the use of self-signed SSL certificates, including our shared SSL certificates.)
    • Enter the full email address of the account from which you'd like mail fetched.

    • Click Next Step.
    • In the Username field, enter your full email address.
    • In the Password field, enter the password for the email address you provided.
    • Select Port 110 for a POP3 connection.
    • Click the checkboxes next to the options that best suit your needs:
      • Leave a copy of retrieved messages on the server.
      • Always use a secure connection (SSL) when retrieving mail *
      • Label incoming messages
      • Archive incoming messages
    • Click Add Account.

  • Are you able to send emails but not receive?

    Are you able to send emails but not receive?


    Either your E-Mail address setting is wrong, or your domain is out of disk space. You will need to increase the amount of disk space to receive mail again.

    Does it say "please enter your username and password for the following server" and you are sure you're using the correct information?

    Most of our servers have a 60 checks per hour limit. If you hit this limit in any hour you'll be locked out for the rest of the hour. you will need to click: Tools > Options > General > and disable where it says "check for new messages every xx minutes".

    If you do not want to disable it just set it to check less often. keep in mind the more computers you have auto checking or checking the mail the quicker you will hit this limit.
