- Do
you offer MS FrontPage extensions?
Yes. We do offer Microsoft FrontPage 98/2000/2002
extensions. In order for the FrontPage
components (contact form, hits counter
and etc.) to work, your web site must
be uploaded using the FrontPage program
publish feature or the component(s) will
not work.
Back to the top
- Can
FrontPage and Dreamweaver be used at the
same time?
This is not recommended as FrontPage requires
the extensions that are updated when the
site is updated whereas Dreamweaver uses
code contained in the html of the file.
FrontPage is a great program but it can
rewrite your code at its own discretion
which will cause problems. Changes made
in FrontPage will not be applicable in
Dreamweaver.

- Will
I be able to remove my FrontPage Extensions
using FTP or Dreamweaver?
They won't do any harm if they remain
there, but you can remove them if you
wish. However, if you decide to switch
to FrontPage in the future, you will need
to contact us to reinstall the extensions.

- Is
SSL (secure) hosting being offered?
Unlike many other hosting services, we
do not currently provide SSL hosting,
it is unnecessary for E-Commerce site
owners to purchase their own SSL site
as most payment gateway providers will
provide their customers with secure SSL
payment facilities. It would cost you
hundreds of dollars a year to purchase
your own SSL site.

payment gateway company hosts your secure
transaction pages.

type of client-side languages do you support?
What about server-side Java?
Our service supports all client-side languages,
including Java Applets and JavaScripts.
Currently, we don't offer server side
Java, because of the lack of stable and
efficient Java engine for the Linux operating
system. We may consider this in the future
if current engines improve.

these technologies are restricted to Windows

by our servers, as we currently provide
a Unix-only hosting solution. We do however
support many popular alternatives to the
above such as MySQL, PHP, Perl and many
others.

you provide a dedicated IP address for
each hosting account?

account (Almost all web hosting providers
do not provide a dedicated IP nowadays).
We will provide you a temporary URL as
a substitute where you may use it to access
your website if your domain name is not
available. However, if you wish to have
a dedicated IP for your web site, it will
cost you $36 per year per IP.
