hello…
[christina rule] “the best solution in my mind would have a something that when i send out 3000+ emails in a way filters it so it only sends 999 of the 3000 until it reaches the 3000 emails..”
the only “it” that you can control in your equation is your current booking system – if you can’t configure it to do that (which it sounds like you can’t, but would be a case of reading any documentation that came with that product), then you’ll have to find a new “it”, which would be a 3rd party service like constant contact or a custom-written in-house solution that could throttle sends…
there is probably a pretty easy way to export a list of emails from your booking system (again – that’s a research thing in the docs there) and then most email services allow easy ways to import those lists back in, so the process is not that painful if only done monthly or so…

hello…
did you mean like a 3rd party service? there are tons that do it just fine (constant contact, etc.), but they typically cost some money – if that’s not an option, then you can do newsletters pretty easy just like how you’re saying – think design 10 years ago. tables and the basics and it’ll work fine…

[david edri] “there is about 75 gb in the trash.”
you don’t want to secure empty the trash when you have that amount. secure empty works by overwriting all sectors on the disk that contained the files in the trash numerous times with gibberish, so that you can’t ever read the original info. doing that for that amount of trash would take an insanely long time, and it might not be working because you have so much in there…
try smaller chunks if you can and see how that goes. you can also select “secure empty trash” from the finder menu.

yes but only in css3, which is not supported yet (the attribute is “font-smooth”)…however, here’s a good write-up of smoothing in general:

not sure what you mean about the error (link works fine here), but you can also go to:
and search for “355342” (sans quotes) and it will take you to the same url

hello….
i don’t use dreamweaver so i can’t give you those steps, but the concept behind it would be one of these 2 ways:
1. make the background of a div or other table cell (any block element) the image. then you can put text in the div and it will appear over the div
2. absolutely position the 2 elements (one block element for the image and one for the text) and set a z-index for each and make the z-index higher for the text element.
#1 is much easier to do, but it isn’t always possible, so i gave you the other option as well. sorry i can’t give more specifics on how to do that in dreamweaver, but with hope that gives you some ideas?

hello…
cool! glad it’s working. i have to ask – i picked this date randomly in the sample i made:
var BIRTH_MONTH = 7;
var BIRTH_DAY = 15;
var BIRTH_YEAR = 2009;and you still have it there now – is that really his birthday? did i get that lucky in guessing? 🙂

hello….
you have it minus one change – instead of this:
<body bgcolor=”3399FE” onLoad=”MM_preloadImages(‘../elements/home%20rollover.gif’,’../images/home2.gif’,’../images/milestones2.gif’,’../images/family2.gif’,’../images/photos2.gif’,’../images/videos2.gif’,’../images/contact%20me2.gif’), “timeSince(BIRTH_MONTH, BIRTH_DAY, BIRTH_YEAR, ‘ageNow’)”>
your body tag should be this:
<body bgcolor=”3399FE” onLoad=”MM_preloadImages(‘../elements/home%20rollover.gif’,’../images/home2.gif’,’../images/milestones2.gif’,’../images/family2.gif’,’../images/photos2.gif’,’../images/videos2.gif’,’../images/contact%20me2.gif’),timeSince(BIRTH_MONTH, BIRTH_DAY, BIRTH_YEAR, ‘ageNow’)”>
you just had an extra quote there after the last mouseover image argument and your function…
