  1. Ben, if you want to use pdf, check out the firefox extension PDFit. Pretty cool little extension.

     

    Unless of course that is the method you already tried, but I've used it for screenshots and it creates the jpgs perfect.

    No, I created it using Adobe.  Looking at that though, it looks like it doesn't traverse through the whole site, just the page you are on?

     

    I seem to remember that CHM has support for CSS... Even JavaScript...

    Maybe you can direct me to a better tool to build the CHM file then?

  2. So until my company puts our help information online (a few months), one facet of our product has an offline set of HTML files (starting with an index file and then a few levels of folders and other html files) that I'd like to package and send to our customers.  I tried PDFing it, but it doesn't look great (doesn't carry over some of the styling).  I tried putting it in a CHM format, but that removes all the styling. 

     

    My last option is to either just zip up the whole thing and send it that way unless someone else here has a better idea.

     

    So... thoughts?

  3. Before:

     

    $data = mysql_query($sql);

     

    Do this:

     

    echo $sql;

     

    When I'm talking about case, the names of your fields in the database are case-sensitive.  So if you named the field "unitID" in the database and you are calling it out of the array with "UnitID", it's not going to find it.

  4. If I posted "go search google" (and that would be the polite version) everytime someone posted a stupid question around here, that is about the only thing I would ever post. I like to "mix it up".

     

    Furthermore... this is a programming community. Look at 90% of the other posts in this board: streaming, server suggestions, good programming books, programming methodology. You wouldn't to a cooking forum and asking how to parse a text file, would you?

  5. Thank you for that amazing shot of intellect, my good friend ILMV!  Allow me to promote you so that you can make all the correct decisions for this board!

     

    My point was that it was asked on a misc board in a PHP forum.  It's called "Google".  I bet you could find the answer to that question and just about every other question in the misc board in less than 5 minutes.

  6. Usage of OOP is up to the user and the application.  In complex applications where a lot of functionality is re-used, it is smarter to go the OOP route.  For simple applications, it may not be worth the effort to build out a large framework when the procedural method will suffice.
