    Hi Binh,
    First I want to thank you for all your help.
    I tried to create a blog for my used cars site but found it difficult. I want the blog to have the structure of a web site. Can you have a homepage , and then a link list to the other sections of the blog? I don't like the way posts work. Can you have pages in a blog? If so how? I havn't done any research on these questions myself yet. I think the help centers are useless. I'm going to try looking for answers, but any help is appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Nealey

    P.S. I am female

    Thank You Binh, your site is very helpful.

    HI Binh, I'm fairly new to web design and hosting (as you might notice from the crappy website I uploaded) , and I seem to have a problem with Internet Explorer when opening my website, it places whatever I have on my webpage to the right, next to godaddy's ad/banner. Besides I'm using publisher (yuk!) to design my webpage, which is not helpful to this matter. So if you can take a look at my website, if you know how to edit the html code of a MS publisher project so this won't happen, please email me.

    Wilfredo » It seems like you already fixed the problem by yourself. I'm sorry for my late respond to your request. It's because I've been traveling too much and did not have time to maintain my blog. My apologies.

  6. Wilfredo on April 17th, 2008 2:08 am

    Hi Binh, actually, I haven't ben able to fix the glitch with my website, it still appears all the way to the right when you open it with Internet Explorer. So, I'd be glad if you can help still.

    Hi Binh,

    I have an issue installing IIS on Windows XP Professional Version 2002 SP2. This is in reference to the article in the link below.

    http://ezinearticles.com/?How-To-Install-IIS-on-Windows-XP-SP2-Without-CD&id=416853

    I followed the instructions, downloaded and installed XP SP2. But then I am unable to locate the file. On click of browse it shows only the sub folders. But on choosing the sub folder with the dll, it does not show up. Please help me on this.

    Thanks,
    Sowmya.

    Wilfredo » MS publisher is not and never will a good program for making website. I saw your home page and it appears that Publisher has used a lot of tags and attributes to do the most simple thing. I especially notice it use absolute positioning for page element.

    Your pages appear correctly on Firefox but not on Internet Explorer. I don't know how to hack into the code because it's too complex. It's not standard HTML code but rather very advanced border drawing.

    However hard it is, I do have a possible solution. You could try to make a container for all those content using the following code.
    <body...>
    <div>
    Your page content goes here
    </div>
    </body>

    Notice I placed <div> right after the body tag. Godaddy will insert some advertisement code right after the body tag and before that div tag. Hence everything inside the div will be moved down instead of to the right like currently.

    I have tested my theory and it worked on my computer's IE. I hope you can successfully implement it. Looking forward for your good news.

  9. Wilfredo on April 23rd, 2008 2:52 am

    Hi Binh, thanks for replying, will try it out and I'll let you know.

  10. Binh Nguyen on April 23rd, 2008 3:00 am

    Hi Sowmya, Thanks for visiting my blog and ask me for help.

    I'm so sorry I may have forgotten some steps. It's been over a year since I last installed that IIS and published the first version of the article. Many people had asked me very similar question and all never returned to say if my answer was working. You may find those here: http://www.binh.name/help/programing/

    What I remember is that I also was asked to find the missing file and I successfully did so. I hope someone like you may come back and explain what did you do to solve the problem.

    Hi, Binh, Wilfredo here again, just to say your solution worked, thanx for your help. I appreciate it.

    Hi there, this is Barbara. I took a look at your error report and, unfortunately I am very new at this and I am not sure what to do with all of that. I am also wondering if the content of my web site should actually be a blog and maybe I should start all over as a blog instead? I don't know. I just wanted to get info out there about my heart attack at 47 and how I have completely changed the way I eat and give info on healthy eating and smoothies, etc.

    I appreciate your help, not sure what to do though. Thank you so much, Barb.

  13. Binh Nguyen on May 9th, 2008 4:12 pm

    Barbara » Yes, you should completely use Blog instead of GooglePages, as I adviced an earlier case. If you wanna make money out of adsense, then head to http://www.Blogger.com to open a blog and start posting.

    If you want combination of a website and a blog, then http://Wordpress.com is your choice. However, that will be no-monetizing.

    I would recommend you make Blogger blog as a startup. Blog often and join blogging communities, and you will soon have a reader base and steady traffic.

    Regards, Binh

  14. Barbara on May 11th, 2008 12:36 am

    Thank you Binh. As I said in my e-mail, you were a big help. I have now started a blog and having a good time with it. I love it. Thanks again for being there.

    Barb.

  15. Binh Nguyen on May 11th, 2008 1:50 am

    Barbara » You are welcome. I wish you enjoy a good time blogging. Please come back sometimes to share your success stories.

    Cheers, Binh.

    Hey Binh,

    I've been trying to follow your instructions for installing IIS w/o cd. My problem is add/delete prompts directly to file location without asking for folder local and I'm unable to identify admxprox file on my win-rar extracted I386 folder. Any ideas, thanks,

    Dominic

  17. Dominic on July 23rd, 2008 10:43 pm

    Hey Binh,

    While checking to see if you had moderated my question I saw that others had made the same inquiry. I guess it's back to the drawing board. Thank you for the forum.

    Dominic

  18. Binh Nguyen on July 28th, 2008 6:56 pm

    @Dominic: Sorry to disappoint you. I couldn't answer your question because I was unable to access my website since I came to China.

    If I remember correctly, when it's asking for a file that's unavailable you need to point the browser to the I386 folder of the Windows XP CD, not the extracted folder.

    Please let me know if this solve the problem and I will add it to the article. Thanks for your cooperation.

  19. Anwer on October 16th, 2008 1:47 am

    Hi Binh,

    I was trying to install iis on a computer without the windows xp disk, so i followed your instructions but for some reason i keep getting errors.

    I was able to extract the sp2 and i have a i386 folder that can see the .dll files i need but it says that it cant copy this file.

    Any ideas?

  20. Binh Nguyen on October 28th, 2008 1:12 am

    @Anwer: Sorry I couldn't help at this time. I think the answer was given deep inside the help pages.
