Anchor Tags are links to another section within the same page. They are created by using the the <a> tag and an ID.
Example:
Section 1 (The code would look like this) <p><a id=”Section1″>Section 1</a></p>

Simultaneously hold down the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons, then release them together. You’ll hear the same sound the iPhone makes when you use camera to take a photo.

We are often asked if we can host standard HTML pages which are uploaded via FTP (File Transfer Protocol). We can host all types of files however we do not provide FTP access. If you choose to host on the Blackrock Networks, Inc. servers, you can use our Content Management System (CMS), WordPress of another CMS solution with us.
Our CMS allows you to create, update & delete web pages using only a web browser. With it you can upload images to display on your web pages, or make files available for download.
This is by design as it minimizes server administration and reduces overall security risk.
Specifically, we do not offer FTP service because it is an insecure protocol (i.e. sends passwords in the clear without encryption). This is a huge security risk. While there are secure alternatives, such as SFTP and SSH, we have chosen not to support them as this can still allow clients to inadvertently upload files that may lead to security holes on their website, and our CMS makes those services unnecessary.
For any of our clients who also have Verizon for personal email accounts we are posting this notice as well. They will end support for their current settings below in September 2013.

Every thought you typed in the correct domain name but only to find yourself at the wrong place or getting a security error. Sometimes browsers try to do the thinking for you and if you start a domain with say just www.blackrocknetworks.com it will put http:// at the beginning for you. Great right?
But what if you want to get to the Secure site with the SSL certificate installed. You have to make sure that the beginning has that all important “s” for security. It should say https://www.domainname.com
Now for the all important question, how can I tell? You would think this would be easy just look at the address bar for the URL and there it is.
But no, on a number of browsers they hide the prefix http:// and https:// so how is a non-tech person supposed to figure it out. Here is a easy way to check.
1) Select the URL in the address bar
2) Copy and paste it into a plain text editor. It will paste the entire text.
3) Check to see if the http:// has a s in it.

Have you noticed lately that every time you open a PDF it tells you it may not display properly in this viewer? Would you like to use another?
This can get pretty annoying, especially if you have to save the document to open it in another application. The latest Firefox update replaced the default PDF viewer with theirs. In order to get Adobe PDF viewer back do the following:
So you need to send some large files to us so we can add them to your website.
There are two recommended options. One is through a vendor called YouSendIt and the other is through DropBox. YouSendIt is suited for one time file sending while DropBox is good for projects and files that might need to be edited frequently.

Hello,
On June 26, 2013, Blackrock Networks, Inc. will be performing a maintenance on the Blackrock Networks, Inc. Email and Microsoft Hosted Exchange environments which will remove the ability for mail clients to send mail using the legacy authentication protocol, CRAM-MD5. Once removed, a very small portion of our customers may lose the ability to send mail until their mail client’s SMTP authentication method is changed.
Why is Blackrock Networks, Inc. making this change? Blackrock Networks, Inc. is continually striving to improve the quality, usability, and security of our mail offering. While CRAM-MD5 is a secure authentication protocol, the industry as a whole has been migrating away from using this mechanism. The recommended method for sending mail today is to use PLAIN/PASSWORD authentication over an SSL or TLS connection.
Will I be impacted? Our extensive testing in preparation for this maintenance has proven that the vast majority of mail clients do not use CRAM-MD5 by default. It is very difficult to pinpoint each and every mail client, version, device, etc that could be impacted, although we do know that if you are running one of the following configurations you could be impacted by this change:
* NOTE: Customers using iPhones with Mobile Sync enabled will NOT be impacted.
I’m impacted / will be impacted… How do I fix this? If you feel you may be impacted, or after the maintenance is complete you are no longer able to send mail from your email client, you can resolve this issue using one of the following means:
Is there a workaround while I’m trying to set this up properly? Absolutely! You can always login to webmail to access and send email like normal should you experience issues and need to send something quickly.
Are we the only ones? No. There are a number of companies that are changing settings as servers are upgraded. See this post on Verizon, they will end their support in September 2013 for their current settings.
Lately this question has been coming up a little more often from clients. I don’t know if recently it has become easier for people to accidentally zoom in on their browser window or perhaps people are clicking on the zoom control some mouse’s now have; but either way here is how to get your browser back to where you want it.
For Mozilla Firefox:
You can either select Ctrl + 0 while the browser window is open or follow the instructions below.
Go to View > Zoom > Reset
For Internet Explorer
You can either select Ctrl + 0 while the browser window is open or follow the instructions below.
Go to View > Zoom > 100%
Periodically people have to setup their email accounts again, either because they get a new computer or have to reinstall software. Sometimes it is just an update installed on an exchange server. Either way sometimes some settings may need to be reset.
One of the most common questions we get is, “Where did my address book go? “. Usually people can see their contacts, but with an exchange server sometimes the default address book when you click “To” shows no contacts. By default the Exchange Global Address Book is the first source of contacts.
In order to resolve this you just need to change the default address book in Outlook 2010.
2. Select Address Book from the ribbon menu
3. The Address Book window opens
4. Select the Tools Menu
5. Select Options
6. Choose Start with contact folders
7. Click OK
From now on when you click the “To” button your default address list will be the outlook contacts folder.
