[calling a php function with submit button]

I guess I should say that I didn't create that, just edited someone elses as I'm not great with JQuery, but something that simple I could have easily handled, but that was a long time ago before I learned it.  Either way, knowing it or not, I copy and paste.   I forget where it originally came from.

Well, luckily for you I have it already which I reuse all the time?  Just needs simple edits.

<style>
label.error { width: 250px; display: inline; color: red;}
</style>

<script type="text/javascript">
function ahah(url, target) {
	if (window.XMLHttpRequest) {
		req = new XMLHttpRequest();
	} else if (window.ActiveXObject) {
	req = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
	}
	if (req != undefined) {
		req.onreadystatechange = function() {ahahDone(url, target);};
		req.open("GET", url, true);
		req.send("");
	}
}  

function ahahDone(url, target) {
	if (req.readyState == 4) {
		if (req.status == 200) {
			document.getElementById(target).innerHTML = req.responseText;
		} else {
			document.getElementById(target).innerHTML=" AHAH Error:\n"+ req.status + "\n" +req.statusText;
		}
	}
}

function load(name, div) {
	ahah(name,div);
	return false;
}

[Layout Suggestion]

Here's a screenshot of what I'm talking about: http://c.imagehost.org/0080/PHP_Help_PHP_Freaks_Forums_Index_PHP_Freaks_1295694290260.png

 

Also, this is fixed in: ./Themes/default/index.template.php

[Can a Foreign key be used twice in a table]

I'm not 100% sure of what you're asking, but here's what I believe you are asking.  You basically want to have two types of ID's in a single table. (Students & Staff)

 

To do this, I would just add an extra column which would be named 'type' or 'staff', whatever you want.  Then make sure it's an int, and just use 0 & 1 to represent student or staff.

 

If it's not what you wanted, then sorry.

You could always use JQuery and a separate page for the function you wish to call on.  That avoids the need to refresh the page, you can just add the content to a div.

[Layout Suggestion]

In your layout, where announcements show in the header with the grey box, you have a break as well as in the footer.  I would suggest simply adding a br tag to the header and footer to solve this.

 

I'm not sure if it's in all OS's, but I know it happens in Linux Ubuntu using Firefox, which happens to be what I use.

[Hello]

Hey, I'm Kira or more well known as "IceXaos".  I own a community which uses SMF 2.0 RC3 which happens to be the same software used here, with one upgrade.  My community is name Runedev, found at http://runedev.info and we're a gaming / cheating community.  I'm pretty decent in HTML, CSS, PHP, and a bunch more, so since I've known about this community for quite a while now, I finally thought I'd join.

 

I don't normally even do introductions, but there it is.
