i've got an obscure question. if i want to register a domain name, i must provide two servers. what are they talking about? my computer or my internet provider? and how do i know what isp address to give?

when you register a domain, you need to tell Internic which name servers
will be "hosting" the official name of your site. you cannot do this
yourself unless you have access to the servers you enter in there!
you can, however, use the servers here at the spring and just host
your site off of here. you will have to ask terry how much he might
want to charge you for that wolfie. i will gladly do all the setup
for you, including the actual domain name registration.
i have to do this anyway for this site that terry has asked me to
set up for him, and that i havent done yet. (i know, i know...)!!!!

and to find out what the Spring's two numbers are
(just for your own knowledge) go to
http://www.internic.net/
and look up spring.net
it will give you the primary and secondary
numbers for here...

We'll give it to you for nothing or next to nothing.
The main cost will be the $70 to the Internic to secure the name.

i saw that it went down. which is good. now the big question "what do you need it for?".....i'm not interested in making money off of it, just would be neat to have a domain of my own without anybody else's rules to follow.

I need a script that displays
when a page was last updated,
but it needs to give a 4 digit year
something like
<script>
document.write(document.lastModified + " GMT")
</script>
but with a 4 digit year...
any suggestions?

I got it!
Used HomeSite's Javasript utility to make two different file last modified
scripts which I then cut and pasted together until I got the one I wanted.

You cannot imagine how useless those tabs really are when one is posting via telnet. I still do not know what is special about posts done this way. pine is incredibly slow and fixing errors is a huge job. I just abandoned the first attempt at this. I got two rows ofOCOD thingies and you cannot access the row above to eliminate them. What are they OAOAODOD and how do you get up one row to rid your post of inadvertent ones? Is that obscure enough?

If I could have seen the script you posted, I would not have bothered anyone with my stupidity on the telnet problem...I am humbled and sorry to have bothered you.
