I haven't had any trouble with them, but then my needs aren't all that demanding. It's probably worth a look to save money when renewal comes around again, but I've got multiple domains and bunches of e-mail to screw with to change (moving the domains is easy enough, but the databases and having people reconfiguring IMAP and POP addresses is a pain). In any event, I might have to bail at some point if they can't host servlets when/if it becomes an issue.
I don't like vampires. I'm gonna take a stand and say they're not good.

My needs are even less demanding than yours. Nothing but html at the server side. I joined them because they are cheap. And now they want to charge 105 per year for hosting?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Typo, you're saying these prices aren't real: [link] ? What do you have to do to get the $83.40/year?

Buy three years worth at once.

No, 3 years at once is $59.40 per year.
But I didn't know anywhere charged under $3 a year for a long term amount--either it's a long-time customer perk or a limited time now loss leader. Am I that out of touch? $6.95/month looks cheap to me.

I'm probably the one out of touch. Part of it is that I have 3 per year with a legacy account, but they won't do it for new ones. But I can find in that neighborhood for lower tier service, like Gator and ipage. Static html, no hosted email. . I may add a blog if I ever get time to blog again.

when i die, please bake my ashes into a brick and use me to hit fascists.
I've been using NearlyFreeSpeech for about a year for a static HTML site that I rarely fiddle with. So far it's been hassle-free and inexpensive.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
So, anyone around who can give me a little help in using JavaScript to manipulate XML using the DOM?

I haven't done coding like that in a while, but I was a big fan of libraries like Prototype & jQuery when I did.

Well, I've been using jQuery somewhat for a while now (but not for this).
Briefly, what I want to do is take a node of an XML document, do an XSL transformation on it and then replace that node in the XML doc with the results of the transformation. But I'm kinda' getting confused about all the different JavaScript objects that pertain to XML, so I'm not sure I'm going about this the right way.
Currently the code does the changes to the node using Javascript to manipulate the DOM (with no XSL transformation). This works but can be slow. Using the XSL transformation would (I think) increase performance.
Is this something that jQuery could handle?
