The most ironic thing is that the proper name for that symbol in both countries is an octothorpe Can't help you on international mac keyboards. Good luck.

Displaying database data in three vertical columns
ManiacDan replied to wchamber22's topic in PHP Coding Help
You can't really do that, HTML tables are drawn row by row. You could try to pivot the result set so that it goes in the order: 1,4,7,2,5,8,3,6,9. You could also print three tables side by side. Most sites just do what you're already doing: display is left-to-right and then top-to-bottom. It cuts down on scrolling as well. -

PHP vars start with dollar signs, I type that punctuation symbol more than the period on some days. It would destroy me to switch to a keyboard where it was moved. Seriously, I had one of those when I started work here, I sat down, looked at it, and went to amazon.
-
Seriously, I can't even use these keyboards because the delete/home/end keys are wrong, I'd go insane if the dollar sign moved to the other side of the board.

and single- and double-quotes aren't on the same key!

Your functions don't return anything. Have you attempted any kind of debugging on your own? Have you tried to DIE with these variables? Have you tried to view the source? You can't simply dump 200 lines of unformatted code on a group of strangers and expect us to do your work for you.

When I hit shift+the button above tab I get ~. Do you have a different keyboard layout than en_us? Your profile doesn't have a location. The ¬ symbol is used a lot in formal logic, it's the "not" symbol in logical languages like Fitch. I don't know of any use for "broken pipe" other than "sometimes text terminals use that instead of a real pipe so you can tell it's not a lowercase L"

You can also just use usort

How to tell someone that stock images look better?
ManiacDan replied to The Little Guy's topic in Miscellaneous
Oh hey I know that site! I understand the problem. Why don't you make some screenshots of the website with her images and with yours, and then show them to her side by side. Prove to her that cell phone pics of messy burgers aren't good. Or tell her to hire a photographer to do a mini-studio shot of carefully prepared food, if that would help. -Dan -
How to tell someone that stock images look better?
ManiacDan replied to The Little Guy's topic in Miscellaneous
If you're a contractor with no profit sharing in the company in any way, tell them "In my professional opinion, photographs taken by professional photographers are better for your website than any pictures taken with a cell phone, but it's your business." If your profits depend directly on their profits, you have a right to fight for it. -
how to establish database connection using ODBC and PHP
ManiacDan replied to kdawg2k12's topic in PHP Coding Help
The manual page for ODBC_Connect() -
You could also use uniqid() to generate a unique filename every time, to be used in the file and in the query, without performing two queries. -Dan

Welcome to the club Kicken, glad to have you here. I use my powers for blow and hookers. Technicalities ftw.

We really really really cannot help you unless you are specific. I will say this for the last time now: You claim that you get errors. WE ABSOLUTELY HAVE TO SEE THESE ERRORS. PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD SHOW US THE ERRORS If your next post does not contain the error messages copied and pasted from your browser, you will be banned.
-
I'm closing this thread. You have been asked to show the errors 4 times and you have failed to do so. Please create a new thread WITH THE ERRORS> YOU MUST INCLUDE THE ERRORS IN YOUR NEW THREAD

Yeah...I've never heard of this before. It doesn't look like something I would use. I just type the tags. Writing actual HTML is less than 5% of my job. Since it's a google code project, there's probably a google group associated with it. You should look for one.

asp uses output buffering to get around the problem with header redirects, the asp redirect is the same command. You can use ob_start to start output buffering, make your decision, and if you need to redirect, kill the buffer and send the header.
-
Ok so you ARE getting output, and you've now posted three times without TELLING us what output it is? Do you see how it's difficult to help?
-
Please try to write good questions and actually explain yourself. "Still not getting the output"? What does that mean?

If you're talking about auto-complete in Zend Development Environment, there's plenty of help files in the application itself.
-
If this is a .html file, it won't be parsed as PHP. You have to make it a .php file and make sure the server is set up properly.

Do you not have any PHP experience? There's one line, by itself, that creates the date. It's even commented as to what it does. There's one variable used on that line, that's the one that's wrong. The variable that's wrong is not set in the block you pasted, so you'll have to figure it out on your own.
