Domain Name
- is a name which uniquely identifies a computer or an IP address on the internet
- has to be registered through a Domain Name Registrar
- every domain name has a suffix known as TLD (Top Level Domain), for example in the domain ‘wakish.info‘, the TLD is ‘.info’
- Other famous TLD are: .com, .net, .org, .us ..etc

Let’s get to our subject now..

Assuming:
=> You have a domain registered at registrar X
=> You have chosen registrar Y to be your new registrar

When you click on “Domain Transfer” at Y, you will be asked these 2 details:
1) Domain Name (the domain you want to transfer)
2) Transfer Auth Code (This code is found on your admin panel for registrar X for that domain)

You just have to provide these 2 details and then make your payment. Afterwards, there is a process involved betweem both registrars:
- Y will email you saying that ‘he’ has contacted X for verification and permission details for the transfer and that this process is given a 5 days delay.
- When X receives response from Y, he immediately sends an Email to the domain owner (in this case, you) asking whether you want to go forward with this transfer or whether you want to cancel it. If yes, you just have to click on the ‘verifcation link’ sent on that email itself. Now, both parties (X and Y) will respond back to each other and registrar X will now have to ‘himself’ confirm to Y that he agrees to the tansfer. Thus the transfer is made within 5 days. In case of a failure, the domain remains at X.

Side Note:
=> Transfer Auth Code is also at times referred to as “Transfer Secret” or “EPP Auth Code”
=> Each domain has its own unique code
=> You must make sure that domain transfer is “unlocked” or “enabled” by your registrar X
=> In those 5 days delay, you will notice that your site url (aka domain name) is not accessible at some different time intervals - this is because X will temporarily lock your domain name until the transfer is done.

Today I wasted like 1hr15mins just to look for an error in coding certain modifications for my blog.
It all started when, out of nowhere, I remembered an old ‘coding principle‘ which says “test your results in different platforms to make sure it’s really effective“. So, I said to my myself “lets view my blog in different browsers to see how things are“. I viewed my blog on Opera Browser, things were perfect. I viewed on Epiphany, things were still good. I viewed on Internet Explorer, the sidebar was down the page.. I said “IE is buggy“. Then I switched to Mozilla Firefox, I was very surprised to observe that a part of my sidebar was not being displayed! What has happened?

While making some changes in my sidebar, I have used some ‘non-standard‘ codes just for the sake of simplicity and rapidity. But I have not realized that this would have an impact on my blog. Have you noticed the area ‘Keep Updated on Wakish Wonderz‘ on the right side of this blog? This part was missing when viewed on Firefox. I was perplexed and tried this on another pc.. still same thing - meaning something was wrong in the codes. I opened my editor, starred at the codes and scanned line by line. I tried several ways to know where exactly the bug was, but still in vain. I was tired and almost 1hr was gone. I went to drink some juice and came back looking at the codes again. Angrily, I was about to shut down everything when suddenly my eyes flashed on the “non-standard” codes I used. I eliminated that part and everything was looking fine, Eureka! Thus, I had to re-setup that part correctly and voila! Everything went fine after 1hr15mins.

The lesson I learnt: “always test your pages in different browsers (preferably with the 3 most popular ones like opera, firefox and internet explorer)“. This way, you will rest assure that your viewers are reading and seeing things the way you want them to see!

I hope this might be helpful to you and I think I will be writing on “browsers” in the days to come

/* NOTE: This code has been coded with Borland C/C++ 3.0 */
//libraries
#include <stdio.h> //defines scanf() and printf()
#include <stdlib.h> //defines rand()
#include <time.h> //defines time() and is needed for randomize()
#include <conio.h> //defines clrscr() and getch()

//main
int main()
{
//declaring a variable
int random;
//clearscreen
clrscr();

randomize();
random = random(100);

//display result
printf(”\nRandom numbers in the range 0-99: %d”,random);

//wait for a key to be pressed by user before program exits
getch();

}//end main

Note:

1) The randomize() initialises the random number generator, rand(), with a value.

2) The code can work without the randomize() function, BUT without it your computer will only generate same number each time.
So, the randomize() is there to generate different random numbers with “time” and hence u need to include the library file <time.h>

3) The function rand(100) generates random numbers between 0 and (100-1). That is numbers between 0-99.

4) If you want to display 20 random numbers, just call the generator in a ‘for loop‘ with “counter <= 20“, like for(int counter=0;counter <= 20; counter++)

That’s all folks, simple huh? (Yeah, but effective )
