I seem to have double posted. I'll use this one to add another Top Tip.

When purchasing something online, once the receipt is visable on screen, if there is no option to save receipt as txt file,use PrtScr to take a screen-shot, and save for future reference.

Now isn't that better than a double post

I like the idea of top tips but it is subjective and I thought it would be XOOPS tips....



It's all good. However, for Xoop, there are plenty of other forums.

Woohoo, I'm putting Linux in an Xbox.

This is a brilliant tip. Only recently did I even try another browser to IE6. Mozilla rocks.

Nice one brash. Certainly useful if you have a shag-load (not a real phrase) of applications open.

New Top Tip

Vanishing Windows:
Have you ever had a Window you can't maximize or minimize? Click anywhere in the misbehaving window and hit Alt-Spacebar. Then you can choose Close and kill the window.

and

A top tip I heard about yesterday, by holding the shift key you can use your scroll wheel on the mouse to scroll through web pages you have visited in your current session.

(As long as you have a scroll wheel on your mouse of course )

One thing I like about community forums like this one, is the chance to learn a little something new, eveyday.

To that end I'm starting this Top Tips tread. Please join in....


This first one isn't mine....Only learnt it today


Time Saving Tip

When Typing in a URL into your browser press one of the following to save typing in the domain extension :


ctrl+enter for.com

shift+enter for .net

ctrl+shift+enter

Don't know if there is one for .co.uk


The .com works for me (in IE6) I haven't tried the others yet.

Come On Guys : Share your knowledge

Not My Breathe Then

Not sure how a Google Bot (or any other for that matter) would have found it's way to my site.

Any ideas on how best to kill any chance of a Bot searching my site...

ps. wonder if there is a way of tracing these IP addresses back to Google (or their source)

I have never published my site, haven't promoted it in anyway. Yet sometimes when I log-on as Admin, there are 4 or 5 guests views foums/news etc.

Within seconds, they are gone Is it me, am I really that scary a guy.
