    session variable security

    tnx vanillapod, i'm probably just being paranoid. its just that i've heard of something called session hijacking, but i don't really know what a hacker can accomplish with that. anyway, i'll probably just use sessions as my options are pretty limited otherwise. tnx again.

    session variable security

    i have an online store just about ready to go up. users can register and set a unique user/pass to login with. my site is encrypted with SSL. however only certain pages are actually secured: order forms, registration, etc. let's say for instance a user who's already registered with me starts a...

    include files with links

    my website uses drop-down menus with links and a left panel with picture button links. the links are the same for almost all of the pages. the problem is that links are added or removed from the drop menus and buttons about once a month. instead of having to update the drop menus and buttons...

    getting my database content indexed

    well, not directly, but is it possible to have most spiders crawl a mostly dynamic site? i know that google and such wants you to have a monster site with loads of pages that all contain backlinks. the only problem i have is that i'm using a dropship wholesaler. they supply me with a database...

    image links embedded in javascript, how bad are they?

    thanks once again Chris, you are truly a head-full of quality information. hey man, i love that quote about indifference... that's irony in its purest form. i wonder who thought it up? anyway thanks again.

    image links embedded in javascript, how bad are they?

    currently on my website i have link buttons made of images. i thought about using some simple Jscript to make it so that onMouseover and onMouseout would toggle between two images. so, how do spiders view links that are embedded in Jscript? tnx fellas... [pipe]

    are limited results per page a bad idea?

    i started with one simple product page that could pull everything to one page filtered by category. that was before i knew the importance of having a sizeable site. i have since created several categorized product pages. but some of the product categories have a butload of products. what i...

    are subdomains bad?

    hey guys thanks for the tips!!! so what you all are suggesting is that i simply have one primary domain (www.example.com) and just put different categories into different subfolders like (www.example.com/garden_tools.htm) and (www.example.com/vitamins.htm), right? let's say i setup my meta...

    are subdomains bad?

    i'm looking at a new hosting plan that offers domain pointers. i was originally under the impression that you could have several index pages under one account. but the sales guy said no. you can only have one index page per account and he said that you can have redirect code on the index page...

    do spiders see ASP generated text pulled from a database

    thanks for that information Chris. about what you said: "most spiders will not crawl 2nd generation dynamic pages, so if your catalogue system generates category page links with querystrings and that page then has products with querystrings the product pages may not get crawled." are you...

    do spiders see ASP generated text pulled from a database

    i have a big product line, everything is being pulled from a database and written to a products page by category. my question is, do the search engine spiders see this content? if they can't see the product descriptions then the page content wouldn't match up with my meta tags. i've seen some...

    ASP search engine optimization question

    i set things up so that if a user adds an item to their cart, and if they decide to go back to the previous product page, the page is not cached so it is forcibly reloaded from the server. i did this because i have quantity form fields next to each product. i wanted the page to reload if the...
