How to Organize a 5K RaceIn Feburary 2016 14,
In Feburary 2016 14,
Choose a name, date and location. These details are important in a race. Make sure the race name conveys the purpose of the race, and plan for a location and date that are accessible to participants.
Plot the running course. It's best to run the 5K course yourself to make sure any obstacles and unpleasant settings are kept to a minimum.
Plan an event budget. Everything, from the racers' numbers to the necessary electrical equipment, will cost money. Make a list of everything you'll need to create a realistic budget.
Get proper authorization from local police and traffic authorities to hold the race. Once authorization is obtained, you can ask the police or fire department for safety backup crews.
Find sponsors to help with the cost of the event and to possibly supply volunteers. Private businesses and local organizations may be looking for an event exactly like yours to sponsor, drumming up publicity for them and extra help for you.
Find volunteers. Contact family, friends, coworkers and anyone else to help you run your event. Make sure volunteers will be easily identifiable on the day of the race.
Publicize the event. Send press releases to local news organizations, create a website and send, post or pass out flyers. Focus on target audiences who will be interested in your charity or issue, and allow enough lead time before the race for participants to register.
On the day of the event, arrive early. Allow yourself time to make sure everything is in place and to snuff out any last-minute problems.

How to Make an Online Application FormIn Feburary 2016 12,
In Feburary 2016 12,
Create your online application with basic HTML form code. The form code allows your applicant to visit a page on your Web site and type his information directly into the browser, such as name, address, educational background or previous employment for a job application. When the user clicks 'Submit,' your Web server will transmit the form to your email address for your review. See 'Resources' for more information and the basic HTML code to create a web form.
Create a PDF form as another alternative for your online application. Adobe Acrobat Professional (version 7.0) has a tool that allows you to create 'fillable' PDF forms for display on your Web site. Upload your application form (in a word processing or spreadsheet file) to the Acrobat program. Click 'Advanced,' 'Forms' and then 'Make Forms Fillable' to pull up the tool and start creating the fillable fields for your application. The visitor can then download the PDF application to his browser, fill out the information, save it to his computer and email it to you for review.
Use SurveyGizmo's web-based form creator service to make your online application. The service helps you create the application, embed it on your Web site and even analyze the applicant's answers from your account dashboard. Create an account to start a free trial to get familiar with the service, select a template (such as the job application template) and start entering your questions for the applicant.

How to Embed TTF Fonts in CSSIn Feburary 2016 07,
In Feburary 2016 07,
Open the HTML file for the Web page where you wish to display the embedded font. For websites or templates using a separate header file, open that instead. Use a code-editing program such as Notepad++, jEdit or BBEdit. Look for the following line of code in the top of your HTML file:
Look at the name of the .CSS file referenced in the
tag and open that file in your code editor. If you see no
tag, create one and then create a blank .CSS file.
Add the following code at the top of your .CSS file:@font-face {font-family: 'Font Name Here';src: URL('fontfile.ttf') format ('ttf');}Give a font family name to your font. You can use any name, but stick with a name that is easy to type and remember. Type the full or relative path to your .TTF file between the parentheses after 'URL.'
Use the embedded font as you would use a Web-safe font such as Arial, Helvetica or Georgia. Here is an example:h1 {font-family: 'Font Name Here', 'Another Font', generic;}The above code makes all tags use your embedded font. Should the embedded font not work, the browser will use 'Another Font' for level-one headers. In the case 'Another Font' does not exist on the user's computer, the browser goes to the last font. Use a generic family name here such as 'serif' and 'sans-serif.'
Upload your font using an FTP tool. If you do not use FTP, you can also log into your Web hosting control panel and then navigate to your file management tool. Most Web hosts offer this tool, which allows you to upload a few files at a time through your browser.

I Could Not Connect to the Server in FileZilla 1and1In Feburary 2016 03,
In Feburary 2016 03,
Users often confuse hosting accounts with FTP accounts. You enter the username and password for your hosting account to access the website control panel on 1and1. This username and password is not even relevant to FileZilla. Instead, you need to retrieve the details for your FTP account to use FileZilla. You get an FTP username and password in the welcome email when you join. If you no longer have access to this email, get your FTP username from inside the panel and set up a new password.
Account Management
Access your admin control panel by logging into your hosting account. If you have more than one domain, choose which one you want to administer. Select 'FTP Accounts' in the 'Webspace' menu to see your username -- this is the username that you enter into FileZilla to upload files to your website. However, because the password is hidden even in your own account for security reasons, you need to create a new password if you do not know it. Click 'Edit' to see the option to create a new password. Write this and the username down on a piece of paper to make sure you are using the correct account details in FileZilla. You can also click 'New User' to set up additional usernames and passwords for FTP purposes.
Establishing a Connection
Now that you are sure you have the correct username and password for your FTP account, you need to enter the correct information in FileZilla. Open the software, then click the 'Site Manager' icon, which has an image of two computers, near the top. In the window that pops up, select 'New Site' and enter any name for this site, then enter your website address; however, do not enter the 'http' and 'www' portions of the address -- for example, enter 'MySite.com,' not 'www.MySite.com.' Leave the port as '21' and the server type as 'FTP,' but change the 'Logontype' option to 'Normal.' Enter the FTP username and password that you've retrieved from the 'FTP Accounts' section in your 1and1 hosting account. Click 'Save and Exit.' To establish a connection, click the 'Site Manager' icon again, select your website and click 'Connect.'
Other Troubleshooting
If you are still experiencing connection problems, you may have an issue with the FileZilla FTP utility. Because this is free software, download another copy from FileZilla's website. If you still cannot connect with a new copy, 1and1 may be having a server issue; call 866-991-2631 to check the server's status. Another option is to try another free FTP client to isolate whether the problem is FileZilla or 1and1. Examples include Core FTP and Go FTP.
