I repaired the house computer(athlon a64 ati rs480 mb). I vacuumed out everything and reseated the power and data cables on the hd. It wouldn't boot a few times and said hd not ready. I also took out the tv card and all sorts of extra cables from the desktop to the cabinet. I also changed the monitor to the 22" 1680x1050. The new monitor is aweseome. This allowed me to use the 19" for when I am working at home. I hooked up the sound to the 22" built in sound. Ok sound I guess. I think the el-cheapo speakers are still better. Hopefully cleaning things up and reseating some things will get rid of the random crashes.

Today I downloaded html-kit and Kompozer. Not bad. I want to try quanta plus because they say the php editing is good but it only runs on linux. I was looking at 2 ways to get it to run on win32. windows.kde.org native port and cygwin kde port. Kompozer is cross platform which is good. Html-kit is win32 only but they have instructions for wine.

I added dns resolution to my geoip.pl perl script. Its pretty cool. Anytime I get spam I can type the ip or name into a command line and find out what country and city they are in. geoip.pl

I experimented with 5 diff ways of redirecting a web page.
1. http-equiv="refresh"
2. redirect directive in apache conf file or .htaccess
3. php header("location")
4. php header("refresh")
5. perl cgi

the perl, apache2.conf, and php all could handle multiple domains with different first pages.
The advantage is that any page can access any file on the web server
The disadvantage is that the domain name will change with some of them.
Namely: apache2.conf since it cant be a relative url. Demo of these at redirects
