My suggestion is to switch provider (I suppose you mean web host?). If they haven't updated to PHP 5.2+ by now then they're not worth dealing with in my opinion. The difference between PHP4's and PHP5's object model is vastly different and it'll likely be really difficult if not impossible to downgrade your scripts.

I meant the latter actually, but I suppose the former would be possible as long as God exists of course. Well, no, of course not, but take Iran for instance. Many western countries perceive Iran to be bad. On the other hand, so does Iran think about western countries like USA. This is due to ideological differences. By the way, I'm talking on a governmental level here. With "good" and "evil" I simply meant that whoever is "evil" is doing things incorrectly according to the "good" people (dunno if this makes sense). Also, nobody in the real world gets up in the morning and says "How can I be evil today? What kind of evil things can I do today?".

Well, it's quite simple actually. Either part of the conflict believes that God supports themselves and thus opposed the other part. In reality there are four options: 1) God supports party #1 2) God supports party #2 3) God doesn't care 4) God doesn't exist Party #1 believes in option 1, party #2 in option 2, and I believe in option 4. Thus I believe that both parties are mistaken. It's exactly like "good" and "evil" is a matter of point of view. You always believe your way of doing things is the best, so you are per definition good in your own eyes. Logically speaking the other one must then be evil. However, seeing as both parties believes that this voids the meaning of those two concepts, at least objectively speaking.

From the point of view of "us" in a monotheistic religion, nobody (at least no deity).

Well, you know when you've fetched the result using e.g. mysql_fetch_assoc() then you'll get an associative array where the keys are the field names? Before where you used date as key you'd just use date_formatted because you setup an alias in the query. I.e.: $item['date_formatted'] instead of $item['date'].

Hmm... yeah I suppose that internet speed is not a factor when it's first in your cache. However, the entire screen does flicker for me in FF. The only browser it doesn't do that in is in Opera (it somehow didn't want to load in Chrome for me). I definitely think it has to do with the speed of the rendering engine and benchmarks of those always show Trident as the loser. Even then, you're forgetting that the majority of people do use IE so it does not mean that there is no use for AJAX. Furthermore, AJAX can also decrease the load on the server. What do you think takes up less bandwidth? Sending back an entire new page or a small piece of e.g. JSON?

I'm guessing it's because Trident renders slower than Gecko does.

Maybe if you've got 20 Mbps like CV, but if you've got 1 Mbps like when then you can notice it.

The whole page does reload in FF for me. Your internet connection is probably too fast for you to notice and IE sucks so much that it creates a noticeable lag in comparison to FF.

What do you mean?

It's possible to do so the extra work required will be minimal.

It's in the ToS which you agreed to when you registered. Regardless, I'll lock this topic as it's gone way off-topic. cordoprod, you're free to start a new topic regarding your original question if you wish. waynewex, you're free to discuss this matter with whomever you want using PMs.

You can do this: $page = (int) $_REQUEST['page']; $start = ($page - 1) * 25; $end = $start + 25;

What PFMaBiSmAd means it that you should do this instead: $listq = "SELECT *, DATE_FORMAT(`date`, '%M %e, %Y') as `date_formatted` FROM jokes WHERE category = 'Blonde' ORDER BY date DESC LIMIT {$number}, 20"; Then use date_formatted in your app when you need the formatted date.

There is also Textile if you're looking into alternative markup languages.

What would the point be? The server load would be the same regardless because it's still the same server that has to handle the request whether it's file 1, 2, 3, or 4 that's being served.

Not exactly related to the 2.0 upgrade, but I didn't want to create a new topic just for this. We've added a new bbcode tag which serves as a shortcut for PHP manual pages: [m]sprintf[/m] => sprintf

I don't think you need a join for that. Try this query: SELECT p.playerID, p.playerFirstName, p.playerLastName, (SELECT COUNT(g.*) FROM games g WHERE g.playerID = p.playerID) gamescount, (SELECT COUNT(t.*) FROM tries t WHERE t.playerID = p.playerID) trycount FROM players p WHERE gamescount > 0 ORDER BY gamescount DESC;

Oh really? Did the first sentence tip you off?

Tone, sarcasm, irony, etc. often get lost in written communication so always assume that the recipient(s) take what you say literally. Also, as per the rules, if you have a problem with an action taken by a member of staff then contact a moderator or administrator privately. It's a personal matter, so deal with it privately. You might want to read the rules. That page contains all sorts of neat things that would've prevented you from getting all your three warnings.

Gone again... ??? Have you restored or upgraded again the software? Orio. No. It was something we added, but it caused double breadcrumbs other places so it got removed again.

Yes... I meant using Zend as a company... in my code.... o_O I think you knew what I meant. If I'm telling you that I only started using Zend, what do you think I'm talking about? Either of Zend's products would make sense when you say that. Zend Studio, Zend Optimizer, Zend Guard, Zend Framework, Zend Core, Zend Platform. I've used all those things except for Zend Guard. They also offer certification, training, consulting, and support with your code. All of those are related to PHP so how the hell am I supposed to know which of those things you are talking to? It's not my fault you are not capable of communicating properly.

Either you 1) don't meet the requirements, or 2) somehow messed up your install. My Vista install works great.

Actually, what I said is only true if it indeed is true that Christianity prohibits homosexuality. Considering I'm not religious in any way I wouldn't possibly know. That depends on how you/they define Christianity. If you define e.g. as believing in Jesus Christ then they could be, if you define it as taking The Bible 100% literally then they may possibly not be. As long as their views do not contradict fundamental christian doctrine then why wouldn't they be christian? Why would someone have the right to dictate how Christianity/The Bible should be interpreted?

I agree with CV. What if a person said he was a christian, but didn't believe in Jesus Christ? That would contradict Christianity and thus you wouldn't be a real christian. It's the same concept only "being homosexual is not allowed" is replaced with "Jesus Christ".
