    Strange Symbols

    sounds like its something to do with the content encoding. I'd advise using UTF-8 encoding, this should get rid of those symbols. not sure how you would do this for the CMS, maybe you could file a bug report or fix it yourself and submit it? In html you can add this at the top of every page to...

    How many Kb?

    I think bigger factors in speed would be images on the page and loading css/javascript. In terms of the actually size of the file i don't think it would make a noticable difference to the overall page load speed unless the file was massive. The key thing is that every file that is loaded (...

    PHP does not really interact with CSS. What's happening in the link you gave is the html and css of the template is being changed in order to create a sticky footer. You can do the same with this code though it wont be along the exact same lines as the tutorial - it's kind of specific to one...

    tabs and javascript usefulness

    Hi Kristinatrix, Firstly, I think that it is reasonable to assume that everyone in this day and age has javascript installed and enabled. I think it would usually be a bad idea to have the entire content of a website in one html file. You also could just make seperate html files for each...

    I can't give you a definite answer but I know a company that hosted 200 low traffic websites on 6GB RAM. They separated of the high volume sites like ones with 5,000+ hits a day would have their own machine with 1GB RAM.

    User accounts and password in database (security?)

    As far as I know it is impossible to un-encrypt a md5 hash, thus eliminating the need to hash them more than once. Anyway if they are somehow un-encrypted then I doubt that it would be considered as your fault, as it is a widly accepted seccure method of encryption. Those people who attempt...
