Millions of web designers and developers have chosen Adobe Dreamweaver as their software of choice for website creation. Even with the incredible amount of built-in functionality that comes standard with Dreamweaver, there are many web applications that require a vast amount of hand coding to implement. Web Developer Suite from WebAssist is a Dreamweaver extension bundle that helps eliminate hand coding and opens up a vast dynamic frontier for the average Dreamweaver user.

Web Developer Suite consists of the following individual WebAssist Dreamweaver extensions:

• DataAssist - for complete database administration
• SecurityAssist - for user management, login, cookies and sessions
• Digital File Pro – for mastering file upload and download
• Universal Email – for processing form email on your website
• Dynamic Dropdowns – for dynamic dropdown menu creation
• Cookies Toolkit - add server-side cookies with one click
• Pro Maps for Google – dynamic or static Google maps API integration
• Validation Toolkit - for validating any type of form information
• iRite – for integrating WYSIWYG text editors into websites
• Database Starter Kits – for both PHP and ASP

Each extension is installed individually within the Dreamweaver extension manager, and is accessed via the WebAssist toolbar added to Dreamweaver. The real value of the Web Developer Suite lies in the abi

DataAssist creates complete database administration page sets with a few clicks of the mouse. Automatically generate web pages that add, delete, update, view or search your database. If you use Dreamweaver templates, DataAssist allows you to use your site template when generating pages. The resulting pages flow seamlessly into your website and are fully customizable via CSS.

SecurityAssist generates all the pages and code needed to create secure user registration and log in pages for your site. It teams up with Cookies Toolkit to utilize cookies and session variables to prevent unauthorized access to any pages you wish to restrict on your website.

If you need a Dreamweaver extension to control digital file upload and download, Digital File Pro is the extension of choice. Through a wizard-like interface, you can easily enable database file upload and download through your website. It’s an excellent tool for webmasters who provide digital files such as MP3s, e-books, PDFs, images, photos, videos and any other type of downloadable file format.

Web Developer Suite also includes Universal Email, which is an extremely handy extension for emailing form input from your website. Universal Email even operates without a database, so it makes a great tool for emailing website contact form submissions. Emails can be formatted as text or HTML, and Universal Email includes a WYSIWYG HTML editor for creating your HTML email messages.

Pro Maps for Google inserts static or dynamic Google maps into your website. Addresses can be entered manually, from a file or even from your database recordset. The Google map API is fully configurable, with custom pointers, map controls and size. It’s an excellent extension for inserting maps into dynamic websites.

Web Developer Suite also includes Validation Toolkit, which is WebAssist’s form validation extension. Validate your form input client-side or server-side with a wide assortment of validation rules. By controlling form data input on your website, you can help reduce spam submissions and protect the integrity of your data.

The final Dreamweaver extension included in the Web Developer Suite is WebAssist’s WYSIWYG form field text editor, iRite. Based on the popular FCKeditor, iRite allows you to insert a text editor in a Dreamweaver form for inputting valid XHTML code without needing any knowledge of HTML. iRite is a great extension for developing custom content management systems or just a simple way for clients to keep their own websites updated.

Web Developer Suite from WebAssist is an excellent addition to anyone’s Dreamweaver toolbox. The cost of Web Developer Suite is a steal for the enormous amount of website function that is packaged in the bundle. Web designers can offer much greater website functionality to their clients and recoup the cost of the extensions in one project. There is no restriction on the number of sites you can build with Web Developer Suite, and no restrictive “per site” licensing. For web designers looking to push their websites to a new level, WebAssist Web Developer Suite is a must-have Dreamweaver add-on.

Windows and Unix/Linux are two major operating systems you will run into when you are selecting a hosting service for your online business. They both have their benefits and some qualities that are not so beneficial. When you are selecting a hosting service to grow your business, you will need to consider both sides of each one of these providers.

Both Windows and Unix are enterprise application servers. They both can be used for a variety of purposes, including, interactive websites, email, and database hosting. Neither one is limited to those three popular functions.

Using Windows servers, either the Windows 2000 server or the latest Windows 2003 server, will offer you some useful features that you won’t find in the Unix system.

Personally, you will have several real benefits if you select Microsoft’s Windows Server:

Microsoft is famous for providing updates to keep your hosted business modern and easily flowing

You can use familiar Microsoft tools to develop your website, like Microsoft Frontpage, Microsoft Access, Microsoft SQL and Visual Interdev.

Support for Active Server Pages (ASP), which is a very popular reason to use the Windows Server for your hosting needs

You can build dynamic database-driven web pages, using either MS Access or Microsoft’s SQL server

Unix prides itself on being an entirely different operating system, an “open system” with publicly available source code. Unix hosting comes in several versions to allow you to c

Linux: Linux is both free software and open source software. You can download and run it on your computer and get all the source code for the operating system, too. Linux will run on almost anything, from mainframes to cell phones.

AIX: Run the applications you want to run on IBM Unix servers with this Unix operating system. This is an open standards-based system.

Solaris: A Unix-based operating system known for its scalability.

While developers all over the globe have added to the Unix system’s development, giving it a wide selection of functions and enhancements, it is more complex than the Windows Server and less coordinated. Two of the major differences between these two systems include:

Unix supports remote interactive access using telnet or SSH. You will be able to do more of your own configuration and setup tasks with Unix than with Windows.

CGI programs are usually Perl scripts and have been developed on Unix platforms. This makes them install and operate smoother on a Unix system. An added benefit is that many of the Perl scripts are free.

Your task, as a website owner, is to decide what features you need to support your business before choosing either one. It doesn’t make good business sense to pay for features you don’t need or won’t use.

How heart-wrenching is it to find out after adding Google Analytics to your website that the added code contains malicious codes, designed to download viruses on your visitors’ computers? Not very pleasing! Well, that is exactly what is happening to many website owners who have added the Google Analytics code to their websites.

One website owner said that on March 16th, three of his website members reported that his UK-based website was attempting to download a virus to their computer. The webmaster and his team then deployed a barrage of investigative measures, which revealed that it was indeed a piece of malicious code hidden within the Google Analytics tracking code that was attempting to download the virus to peoples’ computers, Google Support Forum.

A Google support staff was quick to point out that he has in fact seen a multitude of websites being compromised in a similar manner, and the actual reason for the problem is compromised passwords. Therefore, whenever the admin password for accessing the said website ends up in the hands of the wrong people, bad things happen.

These malicious program producers gain access to an unsuspecting website by using a compromised password and then plant virus-producing codes within the Google Analytics Javascript code block. Therefore, people should not get the wrong impression and start blaming the Google Analytics code for being malicious. It is the added code by the perpetrators that is malicious, not the Google code itself. In effect, it is the Google Analytics code that is co

Therefore, to prevent such a thing from happening on any website, the webmaster of that site should take extra precautions by periodically changing passwords.

While compromised password is one way of exploiting the Google Analytics code, the Google support staff cautioned us that it is not the only method of exploiting the code while it is on a website.

Another method of exploitation is the actual injecting of malicious scripts by websites indulging in such practices. An example of such a website was discussed by the Google support staff in the support forum. The Support Staff gave actual names of programs and websites suspected of delivering viruses to compromised websites.

Scripts distributed by malicious websites deliver codes that create hidden iframes that are loaded directly from those malicious sites. It is with such mechanism that viruses are downloaded to peoples’ computers.

One victim of the Google Analytics exploit came forward and shared his story, saying that he too was victimized by the Google Analytics exploit, which was characterized by several days of excessive traffic from an unusual spider that scanned every page on his website.

He then immediately removed the Google Analytics code from his website and server, which ceased the unusual spider activities. This webmaster’s website was ASP-based. This is telling us that it does not make any difference as to what framework the target website is built on, the danger still exist for malicious websites to use the Google Analytics as a virus delivery tool! So, this can happen to websites running ASP, PHP, HTML, etc.

In the event of a Google Analytics exploit, webmasters should check their server access logs for any kind of suspicious “GET (and POST)” requests. These requests will most likely be made by the suspected malicious program because computer viruses can be injected into websites via the HTTP requests protocol, according to a Google support forum member.

The rule of thumb for website owners is to always take extra precautions in password security by changing passwords frequently. A name, date of birth, or child’s birth date should never be used as a password. In fact, passwords should have letters, numbers, and special character combinations to make them very difficult to figure out.

We saw in our discussions that it is not the Google Analytics code that is totally to blame for the downloading of viruses to people’s computers. It is password security of websites.

What is a Content Management System?

A Content Management System (CMS) is a third party software application which allows web site administrators to add, update or delete content, photos, and documents to their web site in ?real time?. Many web sites are modified using these web-based tools as they require little to no knowledge of HTML or web scripting languages. CMS programs make it easy for a webmaster or site owner who does not know HTML or have access to a WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) HTML Editor, such as Macromedia?s Dreamweaver, to update their site.

In today?s high paced web world, a good CMS is integral to the efficient operation of a web site. Many webmasters and web site developers are building database driven, or dynamic web sites, which require a third party solution, such as a Content Management System, to update the content that lives in the database. In addition, a CMS allows the web site owner to outsource content development remotely to contract copywriters and other willing contributors. With built in access level hierarchies, webmasters can allow various users to register as authors and start submitting articles and news to be published on their site.

How do Content Management Systems Work?

Content Management Systems create a dynamic web site environment, where all the content is stored in a database or XML file. Using a web-based interface, the webmaster can select which page they want to update and then can modify the web content in a text editor, with many of the familiar formatting keys that ca

Problems Between Search Engines and Content Management Systems:

Historically, search engines have had difficulty indexing dynamic pages. While their ability to index and rank dynamic pages has improved dramatically, there are some basic things to avoid. One of the greatest enemies of search engines is URL strings that contain many URL parameters. URL parameters are variables that are passed to the CMS through the URL, which tell it what information to retrieve from the database. URLs with too many parameters generally make little logical sense to the average user and may also scare off search spiders. For example see:

http://www.mysite.com/mg/vbclass/search.asp?A9_MAKEVBCookie=Yes&vertical=CLTH&cat=Mens&subcat=ID&displayTarget=Subcategory

It is suggested to limit the number of URL parameters to two or three per URL to ensure that that search spiders will not have difficulty indexing pages deep within the web site.

Certain URL parameter names may automatically flag a filter on the search engine. One example is the URL parameter names that contain ?ID?, such as ?sessionid?, ?sid? or ?userid?. Historically, search engines detect the term ?ID? and assume it is associated with a session dependant variable. As a result, search engines have learned to flag these parameter names and it can cause problems with page indexing. Passing session dependant variables through the URL is a problem for search engines because the spider essentially sees a unique URL each time they visit the site because the session dependent variables change with each visit. For example, on one visit to the site, a page URL may be http://www.mysite.com/page.asp?sessionid=12345. The next time the spider visits the page, the URL may be http://www.mysite.com/page.asp?sessionid=56789. This creates a situation where a spider may think that there are multiple URLs with duplicate content, resulting in penalties which will negatively impact search rankings.

Based on the above, it is imperative to employ a CMS that does not pass session dependent data, such as session variables, through a URL string. Doing so will not only create potential usability issues for the end user, but will also result in indexing problems for the search engine spiders.

Finally, search engines gather understanding from your web site?s content by filtering through the HTML code. For this reason, it is extremely important that your CMS generate HTML code that adheres to the latest requirements of the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). Use the W3C Code Validator to determine if your code meets the W3C standards. Be aware that some CMS?s add in many lines of proprietary code or JavaScript at the top of the file, which can choke search spiders. This violates a cardinal rule of SEO; ?To always have more content then code?.

Finding a Search Engine Friendly CMS that will Work for You:

Now that we have explored many of the potential problems with Content Management Systems, lets look at how to go about finding one that will be both search engine friendly and suit your specific needs. First you will need to determine what server platform you will be using. Many Content Management Systems use scripting languages and databases that are platform dependant. If you are married to a particular platform, it may limit your CMS options. Ideally, you will want to find a CMS that is platform independent, which can run on any server.

There are many search engine friendly CMS?s that will allow the web site owner to generate a URL structure that is both meaningful to their users and digestible by search engine spiders. Instead of having a URL that is packed with parameters, you can create a URL structure that looks like this: http://www.mysite.com/children/hats/prodid/121576. Your next step is to check whether your CMS builds HTML pages to the latest standards established by the W3C. Most CMS providers will be able to tell you if their solution generates valid code. If they can?t, then ask for a sample page and run it through the W3C Code Validator. In order to rank effectively in organic results of the search engines, it is imperative that your CMS allows you to update your title tags, meta data and alt tags on a page-by-page basis.

The most important aspects of a good CMS are the ease of use and richness of content formatting features. This one is a no-brainer because the very reason that you are looking for a CMS is that YOU DON?T WANT TO CODE. Any good CMS should provide an editing stage that is similar in feature and function to a standard word processing program, such as Microsoft Word. The technical term for this is a WYSIWYG Editor or a Rich Text Editor. This important feature will allow you to type and format your content using standard buttons and keyboard shortcuts. When you publish the content to the live web site, the CMS will write the HTML, CSS and scripting to display your content as it was formatted during the editing stage. Many Content Management Systems are offering additional technologies, such as RSS feed, shopping cart solutions, forums and live chat integration, which can really enhance the functionality of your web site. The key is to find a CMS that will suit your core needs and then determine what add-ons would be beneficial. The ends result will be a web site that is easy to manage and usable for both your customers and the search engines.

QuickBooks enterprise hosting on third party service provider means placing entire QuickBooks application with the third party QuickBooks hosting service provider. This means the QuickBooks  Enterprise is installed and run on the third party terminal servers and the users (or multi-users) access the application locally as a mere desktop interface or in other terminology, a virtual copy. Advantages are innumerable, but speed of access is the direct spinoff from this. Before getting on to the benefits of QuickBooks enterprise hosting with a third party ASP, the strong features of QuickBooks enterprise 2009 in brief to better comprehend what the QuickBooks hosting service provider offers to your business and also selecting the right ASP.

QuickBooks enterprise prove to be a one point solution for specific business needs such as management of finance , tracking inventory, payroll processing , sales tracking and employees record maintenance. But the application has the uniqueness of  being scaled up as the client’s business grows and that prove to be its strongest point.

To put it in perspective:

For business managers

They can extrapolate to know their business strength at present and later Use the software as per the specific business needs Up to 30 simultaneous users Tracking more than .1million   customers Quick daily snapshot of clients business

These features are further strength

Why go for QuickBooks enterprise 2009 hosting?

The case for QuickBooks enterprise hosting is strongest if the user wants to run the application without willing to invest in local IT network due to factors such as IT infrastructure cost and relatively insecure nature of local IT environment. Added to this are expenses involved in managing them. Most importantly these do not form the core focus of clients business. So better option is always to have a QuickBooks hosting ASP which can manage all these with more proficiency and with better results. It need not be overstressed that financial data are most valuable and to backup them in most secure locations and preferably multiple locations, fortified with latest security tools such as firewalls and antivirus software is top priority. QuickBooks hosting service does exactly that for their customers. Multiuser and remote access feature of QuickBooks Enterprise 2009 can be further exploited with QuickBooks remote hosting. Not only are the users able to access their applications from anywhere in an always on mode, managing simultaneous users is more easy with QuickBooks remote access service. This simultaneous access capability is in real time. Clients can gave their customized user preference set uniformly for all users as well as define the degree of access for each individual users. Money matters: All benefits of Hosting QuickBooks Enterprise 2009 finally filters down to the savings one can have, by migrating local network to the hosted one. Since no investment in local infrastructure is required and clients incur only monthly charges, no upfront IT investment needed. Also no investment in IT infrastructure maintenance as 24×7 technical supports and troubleshooting is included with the QuickBooks Enterprise Hosting package. And finally no investment in backup and data recovery infrastructure. Transportation cost and time saving from multiuser feature are other spinoff from a QuickBooks remote hosting service.

Finally the ultimate Question: How to choose Right QuickBooks hosting service provider?

Here is a Quick list of the things that one consider for choosing the right QuickBooks Hosting ASP

Always look for the prices. Anything around $30-35 is a good option. Do not be lured into the thinking procedure that high prices mean high Quality service. Some charge as high as $49 /user/month. And this when the user is providing the licensed copy from Intuit. Intuit do not recommend any third party QuickBooks hosting service provider and do not give guarantee for the services provided by even those that are certified by Intuit. Being certified do not translates into high inflated prices. Users should pay right prices and not certification and brand prices. Setup costs : there should not be any setup cost involved for the users and most QuickBooks hosting service providers does free of cost . If they charge for it just ignore that service provider. Support: 24×7 x365 support is must. That is the standard practice for most QuickBooks hosting service provider. No odd man out there. If there is one just ignore that service provider. Migration help: This should come free in the case when the client is migrating from a competitor or from their local network. Free trial: who does not like free trial! On a serious note, Free trials is a good tool to judge how the QuickBooks Hosting Service provider performs or to know more about the benefits or QuickBooks enterprise hosting.

In the world of web development, the choice of which development language to use commonly comes down to two popular choices. Web applications, specifically those relying on back end databases, are typically being created using either Microsoft’s ASP.Net language, or the Open Source alternative language of PHP. Reasons why one might choose one over the other can include: The cost of development tools, or availability of such tools, or even ones comfort level with the Open Source initiative. The goal of this article is to provide some perspective on reasons why one might choose one over the other.

Active Server Pages or ASP has long been an option for creating dynamic web content. Active Server Pages facilitates the ability to use databases such as Access or SQL just to name a few, to create dynamic, feature rich websites. The work going on behind the scenes in serving up the dynamic content is being done at the server level by the Active Server Pages source code. Microsoft has spent a great deal of time and resources promoting their .Net family of programming languages of which ASP.Net is a member. In order to develop with ASP.Net one must obtain the extremely expensive Microsoft Visual Studio Programming Suite. While expensive, Visual Studio is an asset to any programmer due to its vast amount of features. As with all of Microsoft’s products, support and updates are constantly made available for ASP.Net. The shear amount of features that Microsoft packs into Visual Studio, coupled with Microsoft’s extensive support make certainly make

PHP which is in its 5th revision now, is an Open Source web development language that also facilitates the creation of feature rich, dynamic websites that can use databases. Being Open Source means simply that PHP isn’t owned by anyone. Just as with Active Server Pages, the work going on behind the scenes of serving up the dynamic web content is being done by PHP at the server level. As with most Open Source products, the resources available to a PHP developer are free of charge. This makes PHP extremely attractive to the independent web developer. There are some commercial quality development suites available from companies like Zend, but there is also wealth of free resources just a Google Search away. Because there is really no corporate entity behind PHP, support and development on PHP is done by the community of its users and developers themselves. Surprisingly this does not seem to adversely affect the ability to find support for PHP.

All in all, ASP.Net and PHP are both excellent options, offering basically the same functionality. Whether the decision comes down to the cost of initial investment, or the comfort level one has regarding Open Source, or something else entirely, the end result depends upon the mastery of whichever language is chosen.

These days, businesses and individuals who are running an e-commerce site or even just a product information website are finding themselves having to devote a lot of time and energy into producing dynamic content that is visually impactful. The availability of ASP (Active Server Pages) and ASP.NET technology and web hosting allows for more dynamic web pages which can present your products or services in the best possible way. ASP gives your website the verve that it needs and provides great web page options that help a website look and function better Choosing ASP.NET web hosting is a surefire way to take your website to the next level and insure you have a robust presence on the Internet.

There are many advantages to using ASP for your website. The most obvious one is that your content will look great and feel more dynamic and eye catching. This is great if you are trying to attract potential customers to your website to buy a product or service. Having a dynamic web page will certainly help you sell more products because you are presenting them in their best possible light and are using the advantages of ASP to your advantage by creating pages that attract customers. ASP is also easy to learn. Even if you are not the most technically adept person, it is usually built in to most Windows programs.

A website that is enabled with ASP is easier to maintain. Since there are fewer html files with an ASP enabled site, there is little need for html knowledge if you want to update the content on your website. ASP allows you to create dynamic web pages a

When you are looking for an ASP web host, it’s important to consider many factors. One of the key factors is reliability. Since the server processes ASP web pages, any server issues can create problems for your website and could mean downtime. Try and find a provider that has as little downtime as possible. You also want reliable service so your website maintains its dynamic look no matter what. You should also find a web host that has the most current software and hardware in place. Older software and hardware can be unpredictable and lead to server downtime. The most important thing with reliability is that your website is up for the majority of the time and can be hosted and viewed in the dynamic way that you designed it for.

For the development of dynamic web sites and applications, both ASP (Active Server Pages) and PHP (Hypertext Preprocessor) are popular development tools for web developers. Dynamic web sites provide an interactive experience for visitors, and can interact with information stored in databases. I will briefly review both web scripting languages to provide some insight into each.

ASP version 1.0 was developed by Microsoft in 1996 and has been systematically revised throughout the years, leading to its current release – ASP.NET 3.5.

PHP was developed in 1995 by the Danish/Greenlandic developer, Rasmus Lerdorf. Similar to ASP, PHP has greatly evolved from version 1.0, in its early years, to its current release, version 5.2.0. PHP is now produced and maintained by The PHP Group.

Platform

ASP web pages are stored and run on Microsoft’s IIS (Internet Information Server) server platform.

PHP web pages can be stored and run on a variety of server platforms including Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X, Unix and Linux.

Cost

The latest versions of ASP have been released as part of Microsoft’s .NET development framework and environment. An Express (limited feature set) version of ASP.NET is freely available from Microsoft; while the complete development environment will set you back approximately $700 USD. As ASP websites and applications require a Windows server, a server license is required. A license for the current version of Windows servers (Windows Server 2003 family), will set you back another $400 

PHP is considered to be free software by the Free Software Foundation. PHP can be downloaded at no cost from The PHP Group. In contrast to ASP, PHP can be installed on the Linux platform. Linux operating systems are also free software, and can be downloaded and installed on servers at no cost. Most advanced PHP websites and applications connect to a MySQL database, which is also available as free software. Like ASP, PHP websites that are configured to run on Windows servers or with a SQL Server databases, require similar Microsoft licenses.

Ease of Use

ASP.NET is a pleasure to use for object-oriented programmers. The development interface is clean, intuitive and well implemented. The point and click interface and programming language may present a learning curve for seasoned developers.

PHP language syntax is familiar to programmers that have worked with other languages such as Perl, C and Java. While PHP is not a pure object-oriented language, it borrows the structure where it is convenient. As community support is strong with PHP, most questions by developers can be answered with only a quick Google search.

Conclusion

While ASP is a user friendly, sophisticated, development tool, associated licensing costs become a necessary evil. Where PHP lacks in luster, it makes up in leaps and bounds in familiarity and community support.
