    What Script Does This SIte Use?

    www.51.ca is a nice site, and I want to build something similar and wonder
    if anyone knows if they are using PHPNuke or other nukes or they wrote
    everything themselves. What is the signature thing in a nuke. Can you tell
    it from how they name their files and directories or how the session IDs are
    shown etc?

    I know the site's in Chinese, but the simple thing would be to send them
    an e-mail and ask. They know enough English to borrow English javascripts.

    And whatever they used to build the site sucks seriously. It's a
    non-valid and complicated mess of legacy code.

      This site is not well created, it seem to be created by a newbs programmer.
      The code are badly nested and some basic concepts of html and http protocol
      are missing. Even the html use lot of deprecated tags. Well if you have to
      create a site like this, better create from scratch, dont copy this one. And
      he even forgot to escape chinese characters for other browsers support.

      Anyway that's my first review of client side coding, it would be cool if you
      can ask the webmaster for some code so I can review his server-side coding.

        I am a competitor, and he is not writing me back.

        What do you mean non-valid complicated mess of lagacy code? It just looks
        fine for me when I view it. I like the layout, the color and they have web
        based mail, forum, news, classfied ads. everything together on the site. It
        is said it is run by 2 brothers who 1 does not have a job and the other
        sells cell phones for living.

        I have heard somebody said PHPNuke is a complete mess as well, but they are
        the No1 popular freee CMS now, same as PHPBB.

            Well, just View Source and/or run it through a validator. Of course, if
            you don't know HTML, then you probably won't notice how broken it is.

              you said so because you dont know all html very well, see
              http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=www.51.ca (more than 612 errors for html
              4.1 LOL)
              http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=ht...type=XHTML+1.1
              (more than 1813 errors for XHTML 1.1 LOL)

              Man you see now what I mean ;)

                I mean PHP code. Well The Apache config is not very useful, since it dont
                have lot of feature yet, missing some stuff, but taht doesn't mean if the
                website is well coded or not ;)

                  It looks perfect in IE, Netscape and Opera. So, why should a webmaster care?
                  Speed or Security?

                    I don't know what they mean. This is a typical programmer against the
                    rest of the world viewpoint. I checked one of the most popular german
                    websites

                    http://www.spiegel.de with 415 errors

                    and even the simple

                    http://groups.google.com has 95 errors.

                    And most of the errors are errors of the validator. If it is also
                    displayed on linux browsers then it's okay.

                          I think you're confusing programming and markup. HTML is not a
                          programming language, it's a markup language. A PHP author would be well
                          advised to consult with a proficient HTML author to guarantee that the
                          HTML output of his PHP script is of the same high quality as the PHP
                          script itself.

                            With HTML the issue is rarely security, that's the job of the PHP
                            script. The issue is usually download speed, rendering speed, code
                            robustness, and maintenance cost.

                              A good understand of HTML mean a good programming work also, you know what I
                              mean as programmer should never leak in what they do, so if a program work
                              the way you want but it's not well written, with lot of flaw, do this mean
                              it still a good stuff ? No... so who care, every programmer that see the
                              code. First of all, let take a look at the validator, it's used to verify
                              how good you write the code, It's doesn't mean it won't show up on the
                              browser even you got like 300 errors, but it mean you dont know html at all.
                              And if you dont even know a markup language, you can't do a good work in any
                              website. you said it's good on all browser, well it's not showing at all on
                              konqueror and even my palm can't see it, it's not a big deal but HTML should
                              be readable by all browser, so get it validated before to post a shit. By
                              the way, errors that I get with google is just a question of language
                              settings and invalid characters, not a badly nested code. I even see some
                              stuff on your site like this on the <body> directly.

                              <div>... </div>
                              <br>

                              Dont you know a <br> can't be in the body directly, he must be on a block...
                              Learn the basic before creating a junk website.
