CSS, JS, and Images are not accessible in Window Server 2008

It need to add Static Content server in the IIS. At window server 2008, need to right click on Web Server IIS > Add Role Services > tick on Static Contents and finish the installation. And then restart the IIS.

Wow man, many thanks....a real life saver.

To do this in windows 2008 R2, you need to go to the Server Manager.
Then select Add Role Services.
Now find the "Static Content" feature under the Webserver->Commen HTTP Features.
Enable this and complete the wizard.

Work for me and I can get some sleep now.

Saving \x text from Power Point to Excel into MySQL

So, as iconv() does not always work correctly, in most cases, much easier to use htmlentities(). 
Example: =htmlentities(file_get_contents("incoming.txt"), ENT_QUOTES, "Windows-1252");  file_put_contents("outbound.txt", html_entity_decode($content,ENT_QUOTES , "utf-8")); ?>
