Thanks to web maven for info on how to reply to you guys.. VERY BAD that Yahoo dont inform newbs about this.. I would never have found that.. anyway here is my host site php settings page.. its in indonesian sorry ..http://www.idebagus.com/blog/setting-php-di-cpanel

anyway it appears to be OFF at this time.. ( php).. I will upload the test php to this address www.cspwealth.com/html/test.php see what happens .. re site address qery by Gatorsta.. page names all end .html
Thanx to both..
Further info

The forms on site on Home and about us pages use php and they work fine.
whoa.. I just checked my site at test.php…miles of info.. I hope u guys know what its all about..Thanx
Tried changing page extn to.php but doesnt work in so much as my menu bar only knows its looking for a html page, and my authoring program, Net objects Fusion 8 will not allow me to mix html/php in same site… not that im aware of anyway.

so Ive sent an e mail to my hosting outfit and asked them to change the settings on the .htaccess file as you suggest, as i cannjot access it.
guess i will have to wait a day and see what they come up with.

many thanx for help so far.. I will let you know what happens.

Gary
Ok I heard back from my hosting co. they said … yes .. go ahead and edit the file…what they didnt say was the file doesent exist until I make it.. I followed your instructions and copied the code into notepad.. however no way was it going to save a file with a . dot at the beginning..NOOOOO way.. In the end my host company sent me one.. which I posted.. it doesnt work.. sorry.. hope you can track down the problem Ive set the site for anon ftp access… so you can dive in..

Thanks again..

Gary

How to REALLY know how much house I can afford?

February 9, 2007

how much house can i afford
Atlas asked:


OK I know this has been asked many times, but the main thing I want to know is why do they say X% of your GROSS pay should go to housing instead of X% of your NET pay? I live in an expensive area, and spending around 26% of my monthly GROSS pay on mortgage+insurance+taxes (no PMI) is the only way I can buy any kind of house. If I used the 30-40% of NET pay formula I wouldn’t be able to afford a shack. So what is the story? I don’t want to be house poor, but the amount leftover after tax/medical/dental/401k deductions is much different than the gross income!

How do I set up a mortgage calculator in Excel?

February 5, 2007

chesspl asked:


What I would like to do is have 4 different fields, one each for the principal, interest rate, number of payments, and monthly payment. I’d then like to change ANY of the 4 fields, leaving one blank, and have Excel calculate whatever the missing variable happens to be in the last remaining field. How can I do this?

Thanks!
