Hello all,
We are, a bunch of college students, trying to host a website for our dept symposium. We are using php for web development. We wanted to send a mail for those who have been accepted for a competion. We tried the following php code
<?php
$mail_to="recip ientname@gmail. com";
$mail_from="myn ame@yahoo.com";
$mail_sub="regi stration result";
$mail_mesg1="Yo ur request for registration has been accepted. \nLogin to access your account";
$mail_mesg2="Yo ur request for registration has been denied. \nContact Registeration team or retry with valid details";
if(mail($mail_t o,$mail_sub,$ma il_mesg1,"From: $mail_from/r/nReply-to:$mail_from") )
{
print "<script>window .alert(\"Mail successfully sent\");";
print "</script>";
}
else
{
print "<script>window .alert(\"Retry sending\");";
print "</script>";
}
?>
we had the corresponding html form too, but anyway we hardcoded the informations. we get this following error,
Warning: mail() [function.mail]: Failed to connect to mailserver at "localhost" port 25, verify your "SMTP" and "smtp_port" setting in php.ini or use ini_set() in C:\xampp\htdocs \try\tmail.php on line 16
We use
Xampp for php, MySql for database, Windows XP operating system.
Till what I read from some searches is that we need a mail server and we have to configure that for some settings. We have no idea what mail server to use or where to find. It would be really cool and great if any of you guys could help us.
Thanks

Xampp comes with Mercury mail server I think it is. Configure that and make sure that it is running and working. To accomplish this, I would check out the website or something, I don't really know what would all have to be done for this part.
Once that is done, you may also want to verify your mail function settings in the php.ini, that they match up with your mail server.
After that, if the mail server is functioning, it should work for you.
Hope this helps to get you in the write direction.

Hi,
The website I am working on is built with ASP.NET and connects to a
SQL Server 2000 database. The web server and database are on the same
machine. I have recently tried to modify the timeout of the website
from 20 mn to 60 mn. I changed the timeout setting in IIS. Now the
website itself doesn't time out, however after 20 mn, when I try to
access a page that needs to connect to the database, I get the

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
