Let create website faster: Part 3

Hei, I'm back with another way to create website faster, and easier. Yesterday I test Google Page Creator. Damn, this tools makes it really easy to create web pages. In 15 min, I have created my own website at Google Page site. Ok, I know that there is not so much content in it, just links and my google calendar, but that shows how simple to create a website. I will update the site later. Busy maa.

Yahoo! Geocities is also another easy tools to create website. I had created my wedding e-card on it in 2000. Thanks to my friend, Sham the graphics wizard, for the amazing graphics.

Judging on simplicity of usability, I prefer Google Page Creator. Out of 10, I gave it 7. It still have a lot of improvement to make it better as par as Dreamweaver, But still, it is free of charge and hosted by Google.

Tanjung Bidara Beach Resort

When my sister enroll for her Matriculation studies at Londang, Masjid Tanah, Melaka, my parents wanted to send her. So I offer myself as elder brother to drive them there from Ipoh, Perak. We start our journey from Ipoh at 1030 and arrive Tol Alor Gajah at 1600. My brother who is teaching at the matriculation has been really generous by renting a room at Tanjung Bidara Beach Resort. He had made a deal with our cousin, Abg Fadhil, who is the resort manager. We were given a bungalow suite, which had 2 room, 1 kitchen, 1 bathroom, 1 toilet. The view was breathtaking looking toward the Malacca Straits sea. They also had 30 rooms for visitor. The dinner at the resort dining restaurant was nice. The kids loves so much to swim in swimming pool. At night we can see the merchant ships sailing with their lights on.

3 hari yg busy

Last week on Friday, I had to take a 1 day leave from work. It's because I had to finish up my assignment to submit it by Sunday. At least I don't do my work at office or disappear half day from office like someone. The subject of my assignment is on study skills for university student. It was not as hard as I thought it would be. Luckily Giant hypermarket is open until 11pm, so I rushed to buy blank cd's on Saturday night. There I found a set of 'ready to binding' stationary. Allah is all mighty, he saves me from problems. Now I just need to print using the prepared blank papers and stick in the binder. And syukur I already a new Canon iP1880 printer, so I don't need to ask someone to print my assignments at office. hehe....

Choice of life

Nowadays I wonder, am I needed in the team? Don't know. nobody says anything. Strange. Maybe it's time for to go away. Maybe. I not sure. After 3 year, this is what I feel. Life is strange.

My new best buy???

Last Saturday, Me and wife went to HSL Sitiawan, planning to buy a dvd player. I prefer SONY product since my television is already Triniton.

We end up buying SONY home theater DAV-DZ3K. I was showing her the home theater. She thought the monthly payment is not so bad, only RM91 per month for 12 month. So instead of planning to buy a RM200+ DVD player, we bought a home theater.

Today I am thinking.... Do I really use the home theater everyday? hmmm....

Exam fever

Today until Wednesday, Iman ade semester exam kat kindergarten dia (korang ingat budak universiti aje ade semester ke?). Mama had been busy doing revision with her since last week. Problem is she had been to school for 1 week after 2 weeks resting from the operation. Lots of things she have to catch-up. I was dutied to take care of her brother. He always wanted to be with her sister and do what ever she is doing. So I show him the Shaun the Sheep cartoon and he got hook on it. Even the whole family enjoyed the show. Every Monday to Friday on 7pm until 7:30pm, he concentrate on the show. He call it Bek bek!

Kenduri kesyukuran & doa selamat Nur Iman

Perjalanan ke office ku

Setiap hari aku terpaksa menempuh laluan sementara sempit dr Lumut ke Ipoh. Ia di bina oleh MRCB dgn consent dr JKR dan kerajaan Negeri. Ia terlalu kecil utk menempatkan kereta-kereta, lori, treler, jengkaut, bas-bas ekspress, bas sekolah dan motosikal-motosikal yg menggunakannye setiap hari.

Aku sebagai salah seorang dari pengguna motosikal yg melalui laluan tersebut setiap hari terpaksa berhadapan dengan keadaan yg berbahaya setiap hari.
Bilalah jalan nak siap siap lebuhraya tersebut?

Let create website faster: Part 2

Ok, I know my last blog about Xoops was last 3 month. This week I start back exploring Xoops as I got more time this days. My main target is to improve my company's website. Yesterday I solved two problem on Xoops.

First problem is when my Xoops suddenly goes blank page after I change to new theme that I download last week. I careless unzip the new theme and copied to Xoops theme folder without checking it. After the page goes blank, I got stuck for 3 day. After check in the Xoops.org FAQ, I found out that I can undo the theme by changing xoops table in the mysql database. I rename the default theme and my Xoops page starts back.

Second problem when happens when I could not log into Administration Menu on my home pc. I had to search the FAQs for solutions and found that my ZoneAlarm firewall is blocking Xoops from sending HTTP_REFERRER to my browser. So I make xoops into trusted application in ZoneAlarm firewall.

Now all my test on Xoops works well. Currently is using Kubrick theme from KavaXtreme. It is a very nice theme. Very nice indeed.

Yeye... Iman mula gi sekolah

I really excited when comes to starting new school session since i was kid. Now when my daughter starts her school for year 6, I get jiggy with it. I woke up really early this morning to prepare hot water for her shower since my house has not yet equipped with water heater.

I even help my mom-in-law to prepare her breakfast before going to school. And I wait until she gone with her mother to school before I start moving to office. I don't know why I got to excited.
