His company provides quality web services to clients all over the worldThe form is a primary way to get web interactivity and structured communication. Dreamweaver has a robust and superior implementation of HTML forms. Forms enable user not only to read information passively from the screen, but also to send information back.
One of the more common questions is how to submit a form to send information in an e-mail. Using PHP, it's really very easy. Here we'll learn about processing forms to send e-mail using PHP.

Show hide menu
Learn how to create a show/hide menu using javascript.
In the first javascript tutorial you have the opportunity to learn how to make a simple menu with submenu that is opened and closed by click (onclick).
Menu works like this: some parts of the table (submenues) are left invisible (diplay: none). When we click on the link, javascript navigation function, with ID that should be shown, is called and the hidden part of the table is opened as submenu.
Let us get started with JavaScript function that we will place inside of head tags, together with css.

Water, Fire and Smoke Effects Using Particles and Opacity Maps
Learn how to use particles and Opacity maps to create smoke, fire or water using 3d studio max
First we need some particles. In general, start by creating a super spray particle system. Then start changing parameters.
Both Off-Axis and Off-Plane spreads should be numbers between 10-20. This will let the particles spread out a bit after they're launched from the emitter.
Adjust the particle rate and speed for whatever effect you're trying to achieve. Rushing water is fast, smoke is slow, fire somewhere in between. Remember to add some variation.

It is time for another photo gallery tutorial! This one is a little more advanced than the other photo gallery tutorial on this site. So, now, what would make me write another tutorial on a topic that has already been covered? The answer is easier maintenance! In the earlier photo gallery tutorial, if you wanted to add an extra image, you had to manually edit the FLA file and add the image's name to the array. That usually requires a few more steps such as uploading a new SWF and a possible renaming the file and embed paths to avoid browser caching.
In this version, if you want to add another image to your photo gallery, all you have to do is edit an XML file. Your photo gallery automatically incorporates your addition without you having to even touch the FLA. In the long run, you may find that the time you save in adding or editing existing images is worth more than your time in going through this tutorial. Plus, this version of the tutorial accommodates captions for your images. Everybody loves captions

Object too Surface Constraints in Maya
For this tutorial I'll be using a example of a button on a shirt, but this could be any object or group node like a belt buckle or a bug on the tip of a characters nose.
If you ever wanted too attach a button to a shirt on a character you've most likely found out there is no straight forward way to do this in Maya
What you want is the button to follow alone with the surface as it deforms, this deformation can be any method in Maya, softBind, ridgedBind, softbodys,cloth etc.......
I'll discuss different methods of doing this based on;
The surface type ie...polys, nurbs and subD's:
In Maya tools vs mel, plugs-ins and scripts:

Now I wrote a second version for this effect because so many people were e-mailing me (and I thank you all), about, "How do I make it choose the letter faster?", or "why doesn't it work?", or "why can't I use numbers?", etc.
Well I made this tutorial to make answering those questions easier, as well as a better and more efficient way of making this effect (wait, there's efficiency involved in flash??? yes.).

Creating VB database applications using ADO control
Data control is not a very flexible tool as it could work only with limited kinds of data and must work strictly in the Visual Basic environment. To overcome these limitations, we can use a much more powerful data control in VB known as ADO control.
In Lesson 19 and Lesson 20, we have learned to build VB database applications using data control. However, data control is not a very flexible tool as it could work only with limited kinds of data and must work strictly in the Visual Basic environment. To overcome these limitations, we can use a much more powerful data control in VB known as ADO control. ADO stands for ActiveX data objects. As ADO is ActiveX-based, it could work in different platforms (different computer systems) and different programming languages. Besides, it could access many different kinds of data such as data displayed in the Internet browsers, email text and even graphics other than the usual relational and non relational database information.
To be able to use ADO data control, you need to insert it into the toolbox. To do this, simply press Ctrl+T to open the components dialog box and select Microsoft ActiveX Data Control 6. After this, you can proceed to build your ADO-based VB database applications.
The following example will illustrate how to build a relatively powerful database application using ADO data control. First of all, name the new form as frmBookTitle and change its caption to Book Tiles- ADO Application. Secondly, insert the ADO data control and name it as adoBooks and change its caption to book. Next, insert the necessary labels, text boxes and command buttons. The runtime interface of this program is shown in the diagram below, it allows adding and deletion as well as updating and browsing of data.
