I'm sure there has been enough printed already to keep the current users going for a couple of months. Would it be possible for a blitz2 tutorial? Or perhaps a games making tutoral covering various techniques This could stem the flood of breakout clones! Also I distinctly remember CU promising that you would do a C4D tutorial. Any chance of it now or just a general one in 3Ding. Also is there a chance of a one-off expaning upon the 3D stuff in the C tutorial that run last year? The books that were mentioned were =A340 each!!! Also the sleeve is better than the case (my CD rack has drastically overfilled), the binding makes no difference and please get rid of the floppies so we can have more info in the AFCD in the mag.

A= s a matter of fact instead of feeling down by the poor results delivered = by the big 3 Amiga browsers I realy should have been happy.

For those who want to know: (in a nut-shell) I tried to use JS to generate a vertical table containing `magic' buttons= for navigating the site. So if you're trying to do that you'll need a co= uple of tags at any row you want to create. Well I had included= the but forgot the opening tag. Silly me. Also there were some messy things like not closing the links with a = tag. = Today I've dumped the old code and started from 0.

I= B2 provides some realy clear error-messages at wrong JS-code (unlike V=B3= that's only screaming PARSING ERROR without telling what it is expecting= ) which does make coding a lot easier.

It is an update of my current proggie AmPCSv1.7. The AMPCS bit stands for AMiga Phone Code Search, and as the title suggests it searches for dialling codes.. V2.0 is a major update (Complete re-write) from v1.7, and as such has a few more features and optimisations.. The codes are also customisable, so none of this UK only crap.. I have codes for UK and Austrailia.. and half the codes for US (Over 20thou atm..) I'm looking for beta testers.. the current ver isn't finished, but I'd like some feedback and ideas.. If you're interested email me, telling me so, and don't forget to tell me which codes file you want UK, Aussie, or US!!

Unfortunately the sound that comes when playing these streams is a very broken. My question is, how can I reconfigure the 'StreamMP3.rx' file so that it uses a lower quality hence resulting is continuous sound? I tried editing the file using 'ed' but then the file didn't work.

I think the Amiga community as a whole needs more porgrammers- remember the excellent hardware, but poor software thing? If you don't like the idea of a porgramming tutorial, how about a "Get the best out of OS3.5," or a beginner's guide to various seperate parts of the internet. ie wk1: Get connected wk2: The Web wk3: Email wk4: IRC wk5: Newsgroups etc. I would probably use more than just Mail and Web/FTP if I knew what was going on. A full tutorial would give a chance to explore the depths of different parts of the net more closely, rather than the one- off "Get connected" features we've had before.

The news product will be based on a CPU from Transmeta and a 3D graphics chipset from ATI. Unfortunately, it's unknown which one. Well I had a little chuckle anyhow.
