New English School Website in Israel

I just finish putting up a site for an Israeli client call Mind the Gap. This is an English School concentrates on the Israeli professionals and their integration in the global market. it specializes on teaching business English and conversational English.

This site is my first pure hand coded CSS. The site is in Hebrew so I had to get use to the RTL <-> LTR thing. Since the site is in Israel and one can buy israeli domain only in Israel, I added a .com fw domain. I’m not sure that it will have any effect but that is my new experiment. The second URL for Mind the Gap English School is http://www.business-english-school.com, good luck!

Avoid Yahoo hosting

It took me couple of days to understand why any of the refer-a-friend script didn’t work on my client’s Yahoo store. Yahoo small business hosting server is limiting the functionality of PHP scripting. One of the limitation is that an email cannot be send, using mail(), if the From address is not specified as from the web site domain name (that is the referral cannot be sent as from the one referring). This was done to prevent spamming but it limits the functionality of refer-a-friend type script.

Looking at a script and forum by Michael Bloch lead me to create a modification of that script in order to troubleshoot that Yahoo Store issue. I’ve seen in the forum that other Yahoo Store owner had the same issue but Michael stopped the Q&A and their issue was never resolved.

The fix is simple: all the instances where From is a variable are changed to constant. you can download the Zip file yahoo_store_refer_a_friend_rdezine_com.zip containing

refer.php

thankyou.htm
