Project Gmail Host - -take the challenge of this old man

BuffaloHELP
Proposal
Develop a website that is completely file-hosted by gmail.

Introduction
Using free domain names, such as geocities.com, create a basic home page but all necessary files, i.e. jpg, gif, js, swf, must be stored in gmail account. Since the increase in gmail’s storage it would be shame to let all that space wasted on some junk mails. The object to this project is to be the first to utilize abundant space provided freely by google. Furthermore, this gives a chance to look though TRAP17’s past postings to find utilities that are necessary for this task. This project, perhaps, will heighten google’s interest in TRAP17 for your innovative ways to use google’s service, thereby, leveling up TRAP17’s search ranking in google’s pages.

Methodology
  • Create/obtain a web address that is capable of making at least a single homepage
  • Search through TRAP17’s previous postings to locate how to access gmail files via HTML access (or any other creative ways)
  • Search through TRAP17 to obtain ‘free invite to gmail’
  • The subject of your website can be anything and treat it as if was hosted by TRAP17 (which means abide to TOS for contents)
  • Be the first to post your homepage to TRAP17 forum
Reference
You may use post such as mine (shameless plug) to complete your task. You are, however, not limited to using just the information found in TRAP17 posts. Whenever you complete a task to overcome your difficulties, please be sure to document your progress.

Footnotes
Pending an approval from admins and other mods, you may post your complete work in TRAP17. Your post must be in detailed description with all appropriate tags and sights. And as always the full copyright rules and TRAP17 TOS are enforced, so be sure to include bibliography of sites you derived your idea/codes. If the documentation is not approved by admins and other mods to be posted here, please include the full disclosure on your project website.

Conclusion
Prize! A prize knowing that you may be the very first person to achieve such task. A self-satisfaction knowing that you have implemented what no one else has attempted and big congratulations from your TRAP17 peers. tongue.gif And, of course, chance to show off your coding abilities on the flick of a dime!

Good idea but i agree with Thunder.
But there's lot of people with tons of free time.

That does sound like a very good idea, but I have never seen anyone able to access a GMail account as a webpage before. Unfortunately I do not have time to complete this task but it would be interesting to see how people achieve this. Good luck to anyone attempting this! biggrin.gif

We have a winner!

Someone beat me to it! I was sooooo close... Pending on webmaster's consent, the programmer or I will post the link. It's 100% hosted by Gmail and only thing is not Gmail related is the domain name and a single instruction to call the rest of homepage files.

Thank you rvalkass for inviting evilguru to TRAP17 forum. I can't wait until I have the source code.

I have made a simple test site, where everything is hosted off of the Gmail account. You can 'see' it here:
http://www.dcrez.co.uk/create/gmail/gmail.php?q=index
Hope you like it tongue.gif


evilguru is our newer member. You can PM this user for further details. Simply, amazing!

Would you mind if I post your link to this forum?
QUOTE(evilguru)
Please! The system now seems to be working almost perfectly (apart from .zip files, which I am working on). If they want to test it they can send an email to:
project.website@Gmail.com with an attachment (eg an image) then they can go to:
www.dcrez.co.uk/create/gmail/gmail.php?q=<subject>
where <subject> is the subject of the message they sent.

Notice from BuffaloHELP:
Fixed the broken link within quotes.

Well, if you need alot of extra space for free this is the way to go! It seems really time consuming though. Since someone did host a site on their gmail account there is hope!

I sent an email with a picture of a dog as an attachment to project.website@Gmail.com and titled the subject as test_dog

You can see the result by typing http://www.dcrez.co.uk/create/gmail/gmail.php?q=test_dog or simply clicking on it.

I am amazed how quickly Freddie (evilguru) managed to do this. I only told him on Thursday during an ICT class! With his permission I will try to post a copy of the source code on my Trap17 space (if it gets approved) along with full instructions.

Hey I tried to do the whole thing. But every host I've tried, I get this

QUOTE
Warning: dl(): Unable to load dynamic library './php_curl.dll' - ./php_curl.dll: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory in /home/ajr106/public_html/libgmailer.php on line 80

Warning: dl(): Unable to load dynamic library './curl.so' - ./curl.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory in /home/ajr106/public_html/libgmailer.php on line 80

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: curl_init() in /home/ajr106/public_html/libgmailer.php on line 167


I'm guessing it's the hosts I'm using because the file is on there.
Can anyone recommend a site I can use to do this? Maybe even a tutorial so I know I'm not doing anything wrong?

Thanks a ton,
AJ

  22. Microsoft Says Gmail Is A Virus

    is displayed telling the user they are infected with "BAT/BWG.A". Now, either Gmail is a virus, or
    Microsoft is generating false positives. Some affected by this "virus" say other anti-virus products
    do not pick up the infection — to me, this is a bit suspicious. So who should be responsible for
    fixing the problem? Either Google can wait for Microsoft to update their virus def....
  23. Street Challenge
    Online Multiplayer Drag Racing (3)
    Well, I saw someone post a thread about Nitto 1320 so I decided to post one about Street Challenge.
    To me street challenge is a much better game mostly because there are NO cheaters and there are over
    45 different cars to choose from. Another thing I like more about Street Challenge is how smooth the
    game runs. Out of all the drag racing games I have played online it has probably the least amount of
    lag. So if you are into cars and racing then I highly recommend downloading Street Challenge. You
