I had almost guessed right! I was using a comma instead a semi-colon

HTML & templates / Re: Can someone make a iPhone Compatible Template?
« on: October 25, 2010, 05:50:50 AM »
Were you ever able to complete this project? I was scoping for an iPhone template and noticed you would posting screenshots of yours 'tomorrow'. That was like almost two years ago

if javascript is enabled the login is also secure without SSL.
I think the term 'secure' should be taken with fairly large grain of salt. If the mechanics would be as I think they would be (e.g. using JS to leverage an MD5 and relying on either cookies or IP stability), then it would ever-so-slightly more secure than plain text across the WAN. Maybe it's being done an entirely different way, I don't know. But there are only so many ways JS could do this....
Not an issue for those who don't serve anything terribly sensitive. But we all know there are others who serve up for unsavory or less-than-legal material. I would caution those ones against thinking of a non-SSL login as 'secure'.

HFS ~ HTTP File Server / Ignore IP in log....multiple subnets
« on: October 21, 2010, 02:29:44 AM »
I know I can put in a IP mask to ignore a single IP (or particular subnet of IPs). But I need to test from both inside (192.168.x.x) and outside. Can I put more than one subnet in the 'ignore' box?

RAWR-Designs / Re: new folder , delete rename, comment for terayon 1.3.3
« on: October 20, 2010, 09:24:38 PM »
I would also like to see this (at least the 'delete' ability). I have not tried all the RAWR templates, but of the ones I have tried (Live, Terayon, RAWR-Template) it seems that one must decide between using the template, or getting all the HFS features available in the default template.
I am not sure why the delete ability was removed, or if it can be easily enabled. However I think there are some possible solutions that involve to template customization. I have yet to get to work, but I continue to make attempts.

I used to get that a lot as well. I had to go back to build 267 before it stopped coming up whenever I added a folder or file. When I would get the error I found that I had to acknowledge it twice, but then I could still add the folder. Weird.

HTML & templates / Re: Only allowing anon access (do not want!)
« on: October 19, 2010, 05:26:47 PM »
Got it (I think)
When I set it to 'anonymous', it will actually prevent logged-in users from accessing resource?
And when set to 'anyone', it doesn't really care one way or the other, right?
So, in the real-world, it would like letting 'anyone' into your house vs letting anyone into house, as long as stay anonymous (i.e.they don't tell you their name). Not sure why anyone would want to do this, but at least I understand the terminology.

Lot's of template refreshes, eh? That was actually what I was doing. I had been going through every template I could find and trying it out. I had decided on a couple of RAWR templates (who wouldn't?) and was using a lot of 'guess and check' while attempting to edit them; Several hours of the 'edit > save > load' cycle. That's when it all went TU on me... I am just glad to know I wasn't imagining it. Hey, I wonder if that little purple man who tells me to burn things is real after all...

Oh I restarted. I restarted the crap out of HFS. I even dumped and reloaded the saved file system and settings. I disabled all custom settings. I deleted and re-added virtual folders and all files. Nothing. The only way it would answer to requests was to allow 'anyone' to access. Even 'anonymous' would not work (how are those different anyway?). Of course, with permissions set to anyone, I could access the site. But when I would try to get to any files, it would say it was restricted (which I expected). The only way to actually use the site and get files was to make it all open to 'anyone'.
Another thing I noticed: whenever someone was connected (even if it was just a white screen), it would show them as such. All connections would be listed as 'thinking' in the status. None of them would ever be shown in the log as ever getting the GET event (which I think is the very first step).
The only unusual thing about my setup was it was running on Linux/WINE> So, as of now, I am building a VM with Windows installed. We will see if that does any better. I hope so, because HFS was amazing - right up until it mysteriously stopped working.

I can't help the large comment thing, Live is a simple template, therefore it has simple one liner comments. I don't think having large comments on files is good practice anyway, add a readme.txt to the directory or something.
Live is a 'simple' template? I am new to templates, but so far it's the most advanced one I've seen. What's more, there are far simpler templates (i.e. the default) that can implement this native function, and allow HTML tags on top of that.
And I am not talking about 'large comments' here; I use comments on every folder, but not on files at all. Most comments are less than 5 lines. I just want my users to know what is in that folder, and I need more than a single line of
No worries, it's still like freakishly more awesome than anything I could ever do, so all props go to you! And I find Terayon can get the job done. I just miss the whiz-bang UI of Live

That's my favorite one so far. I loved Live more at first. But it can't display comment so well (which I use extensively), so this is new hotness....

HTML & templates / Only allowing anon access (do not want!)
« on: October 14, 2010, 09:35:37 PM »
I am not sure what I did....don't remember making any changes. But...
Today, when I logged on to my HFS server from work I could not get in. I wasn't even prompted to log in; just a white screen. So I remoted into the physical server and took a look. Server resources looked good and was ON and appeared to be fine.
I checked my account and had read/write/delete on the root / of the VFS. I tried using the 'open in browser' directly from the server, and even it didn't ask for a login...just a white screen with the eternal progress bar in the browser. I set the root of the VFS to 'anonymous'...nothing.
However, when I re-permissioned / with 'anyone' it came up fine; both locally and across the web. So I know my domain, network, and firewall are all functioning. I am kind of stumped here...
Using 2.3 beta Build#267

Loving the look and function of this template, but just a couple of things...
I use copious amounts comments to describe what's in the folder. What I am describing can usually not be explained in a single line of text. I can put multiple lines of text in the comments, but the Live template just puts a, nearly imperceptibly small, scroll bar in the drop-down. And it's all but impossible to move the mouse pointer to said scroll bar without moving it too far and losing the drop-down altogether.
I know the item info drop-downs can be disabled, but then I cannot use comments at all. Is there a way around this issue?

HTML & templates / Re: HFS "Maintenance page"
« on: October 12, 2010, 12:13:13 AM »
I think I have at least a passing familiararity with how web servers work 
I don't think I really wrote my question right....
I have never used an server engine that can run from a single EXE, and yet has so much flexibility (which is very cool, BTW). Nor have I ever started a daemon/service (IIS, Apache, etc) that just 'takes over' port 80 without a single bit of configuration. One moment Apache is answering on 80, then after I ran HFS for the first time, it's not. In that past, when I setup two web servers and forget to redirect ports properly, I will get some kind of 'port conflict' error and neither of them will work.... I am assuming HFS is coded to be the dominate web daemon regardless.
I am getting a distinct whiff of 'trade secret' here....which is totally okay with me. That's what decompilers are for
I kid, I kid.. I kid because I love....

Thanks for that update. A appreciate your candor. Tell me, when you say 'donate' are you talking the 'money' kind or the 'time/skillset' kind? Not having the latter, if the former in within my means, I could do it.
