Very true, thank Alpine :)

Hi, I have made a 20 page website that displays my companies online portfolio. It really is just a brochureware site. I have used php include files to include the header and other stuff in a php template system to generate my site layout. My question is, would i be better off running my site with php then clicking view source then copy and paste the generated html into html files and just host the html files rather than the php template script? Or is the call to include() so fast that i would hardly notice the difference and just keep the template system? Basically, for a small site like this, will the php overhead be worth it or not? Thanks for any opinions.

Hi, Does anyone know a good charting library or module for php? I'm after the most well knoown standard or a really good one. Doesn't matter if it is commercial. I need it to chart stock prices on my website. Thanks :)

Thanks guys, So what is the bottom line? Hold off for a while? I mean, i will still learn it in the mean time but does it look as though v4 is still current?

Hi, I have used php 4 alot and haven't attempted php5 yet. From what i can tell, not alot of web servers have made the transition and all my clients ask for php unkowingly running a php 4 server so any php 5 stuff wont work for them. Is it too soon for php5? When will php5 become mainstream do you think? Any insights would be great. Thanks :)

Hi, I am trying to make a script that posts info to certain areas of a myspace profile. Is this even possible with php? I have no idea where to start and would appreciate any tips. Thanks :)

Hi, Someone asked me to include one of their php files in my code that is hosted on their server. I have done this like so: include("http://www.xxx.com/clients/provident/level2/includes.php"); $info = return_user_info($_COOKIE["provident_email"]); echo $info['Last Name']; But i get this error: Fatal error: Call to undefined function return_user_info() Is this even possible? Or do i need to store that include.php file locally? Thanks

Its for bank loan applications. They are long forms and need to be split into several forms. There are 12 forms for bank accounts and credit cards and they are huge and when split make over 100 seperate forms. That webformdesigner actually is quite good for the job and creates standards compliant forms with css and no tables. I dont see why people think some programming tools are the devil. Personally, i prefer productivity over performance - just makes better business sense. But feel free to hand code a job like this using note pad because you are masochistic :p

Thanks but not really what i'm after. The best i have found so far is http://www.webformdesigner.com/ I guess this will have to do. Thanks

I can make them myself. I need to make over 100 forms and all that positioning by hand in going to be as tedious as hell.

Hi, Not really a php question but was hoping you guys could help me. I am looking for a program that lets me design html forms using a wysiwyg editor. Drag and drop kind of thing. I can make forms by hand but was hoping there was a program specifically for creating forms visually. I dont want a full blown web editor, just one for html forms. Any help finding something like this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks :)

Hi, I have a site where users can upload a logo image for their profile. At the moment, i just upload them to my server and place them in a logos file with each image named the same as their id number. This works fine but am beginning to wonder if it would be faster to store all the logos in blob fields in a database. Or would that be slower? Any opinions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks :)
