    I agree that since shipping is mostly based on weight and distance, we can probably forget about the dimensions. After sitting and trying to figure out a solution, the best I could come up with was to base it on a cubic dimension equivalent, and make an educated guess... Putting this aside, something a little more important to figure out is if somebody orders enough items to go over the weight limit for UPS, which I think is 80 pounds. Oh the joys of building an ecommerce application!

    I tried searching around for "shipping", "package", and "dimensions" but couldn't find the thread/post you are referring to.

    I'm making my own ecommerce application, and have integrated a function to get shipping rates from UPS. This function has a few parameters, of which include a package height, width, and length. It would be moderately easy to calculate size if all products were the same size, but that is almost never the case. So, I'm wondering how other sites handle this. My initial though was to include a field in the product database for cubic size, but this wouldn't work because some products/packages which are quite long would have an extra fee. Actually, the price of shipping is more based on weight for average sized packages, so I may be able to set the parameters to match a "standard" size package. Any advice?

    I don't get it. Crons are supposed to be run by the server. There shouldn't be a user associated with the cron running.

    I'm kind of dealing with the same thing right now. I'm actually being sub-contracted, and there aren't very many restrictions. I made the decision to use CodeIgniter, create my own cart, and create my own checkout. Often times these open source carts have way too many features that people don't need. You can either spend time ripping them out, or just create what you need from scratch. Another bonus is that you won't be effected by the latest exploit, since you're not using something that is part of a big target.

    If you need a background image, why don't you just use CSS? With Firefox and the developer toolbar, you can easily see which div to apply the background image to. You could apply the background image in an external stylesheet, internal, in-line, or even use javascript.

    Instead of banning everyone but yourself (or a group of IPs), you should try to ban the individual IP or IP block. If this was a one time event, then it might not happen again. For now, just look through your server logs and you are sure to find out who did what.

    The cookie holds data on the client, and that data is included in the header of each request. If the script that the client requests can use the data in the cookie it will. Session cookies work differently. The data of a session cookie is actually held on the server, and the client receives a special cookie that has a unique value, sort of like a key, that allows the data on the server to be used. I don't believe there is a performance impact for simple cookie usage.

    I learned PHP OOP from Larry Ullman's PHP5 Advanced book, but didn't really understand using it until working with it on a regular basis. I too was disgusted with the pet examples. PHP OOP is amazingly easy to work with when you finally understand. You ought to look at one or two of the popular php frameworks and see how they are handling the tasks of building, validating, and populating forms.

    How about: echo '<input type="hidden" value="' . $_GET['title'] . '" name="title" />';

    It looks like all it is doing is changing the value of the salt key

    what version of php are you running? You have a lot of errors you should fix. That's probably why the table isn't formatted the way you want: line 3 - Error: no document type declaration; implying "<!DOCTYPE HTML SYSTEM>" line 73 column 4 - Error: end tag for "DIV" omitted, but its declaration does not permit this line 68 column 16 -

    if you are using php5, you can use simpleXML, and "extracting" the text should be fairly simple.

    Zend has a bad reputation for being slow. Sorry to hear you have done so much work already. I'd guess that you have more experience than most people who come here, so the chances of a miracle/answer are very low at best.
  15. sKunKbad
    I like the colors, and if it is just for a client, I wouldn't worry about it. It's better designed than most websites out there.
  16. sKunKbad
    I think your project needs to better explain how to use it. The form is not very intuitive.
  17. sKunKbad
    Sounds like you should look into jQuery or Prototype. Showing/Hiding divs is super basic with these javascript frameworks.
  18. sKunKbad
    Do you actually have a column/field in your table named e_mail?
  19. sKunKbad
    I use statcounter.com, and insert their little javascript in files I want to track site visitors on. I like it better than Google's analytics, and it sounds like you might too.
  20. sKunKbad
    use UNION
  21. sKunKbad
    Check and try changing the default character set in your php.ini default_charset = "UTF-8"

    The site is OK, but has sort of plain/generic feel. Because I don't use Twitter, my opinion is based purely on design, and I'd probably browse around css design template sites to get some inspiration, and make the design more inviting. Also, it doesn't seem like you have enough content for that width, and realistically all of your menu pages could fit on a single page.

    PHP Freaks is good for me. I like high traffic forums because my questions are more likely to be answered, and the likelihood that I can help others is greater. I also like Sitepoint and CodeIgniter forums. Your forum is pretty plain looking. I'd like to see where it is going in 6 to 12 months.
  24. sKunKbad
    Much better for me
  25. sKunKbad
    They can go anywhere they want. The 404 page has all of the normal menus of the site. It also has a link for them if they don't want to wait for the redirect.
