hi php itself will handle most of the file sytems differences, but there are some things you need to do, such as: 1. windows uses \ and linux uses / 2. windows uses drive letters, linux does not. Usually its better to use relatives paths. example: opening a file //Win: note the backslashes $file = fopen("c:\\temp\\myfile.txt", "r"); //Lin: $file = fopen("/tmp/myfile.txt", "r"); while my windows knowledge is pretty basic, feel free to ask more if i have missed something in your question. cheers, tdw

you can use implode to convert the array to string (csv?) $output = implode(",", $myarray); hope that helps cheers, tdw

I don't have the patience either, but near the top i see the line if ($playerinfo[chatban] > 0){ That got anything to do with it? Otherwise, look for other >0's

Okay, so i reckon i've fixed all (or hopefully most) of that, you want to have another crack at it? cheers, tdw

Thanks agentsteal A bit later i will try to figure out what all this means - but i can see that my site isn't very secure

every row should have a specific index/id - right? so the query would be DELETE FROM mytable WHERE rowid=2; cheers, rdw

hehe, nice one!!! anything else?

... and, sorry, i keep posting on my own post, i don't have I.E. does the js etc i've used work in IE, or is it messing it up?

... sorry, you dont need to set up an account username: testuser password: testpass

He guys Can you check out my site i'm working on at http://www.best-nights-out.com. I'm looking for any constructive criticism on design etc... but also security. Account security isn't really important cos i dont keep any personal details, but things like SQL injection.. (im backing up the DB now, so hack away ) cheers, tdw

If you are deleting everything in the table then "DELETE FROM mytable" will delete everything... And then do your insert

or "j" rather for no leading zeros

date("l nS \of F Y") n = month number use d instead

k i think ive got it this time you need to put else's before the second and third if because its defaulting to the last "else" if this doesn't work then maybe i stop giving stupid suggestions <?php /... if ($site1 <> 'All' && $tech1 == 'All') { $query ="SELECT * FROM helpdesk h WHERE h.site = '$site1'"; } else if ($site1 == 'All' && $tech1 <> 'All') { $query ="SELECT * FROM helpdesk h WHERE h.tech = '$tech1'"; } else if ($site1 == 'All' && $tech1 == 'All') { $query ="SELECT * FROM helpdesk h"; } else { $query ="SELECT * FROM helpdesk h WHERE h.tech = '$tech1' AND h.site = '$site1'"; }

Ok so maybe in the file that creates the XML, instead of echo'ing or print'ing, use a variable, say $xml so <?php $xml = "<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"iso-8859-1\"?>"; $xml .= "cdcsdcs"; // etc.. and then in your other php file, after you have included this file, just use the variable $xml. <?php //... include("xmlgenerator.php"); // your variable is now set xml_parse($xml) // or whatever echo $xml; im i following you now? hope so tdw

... also i think <> should be replaces with !=

the str_replace function should work, replacing all occurences of the first param with the second using regex, can become more complicated (preg_replace). $input = str_replace("www.old.com", "www.new.com", $input); cheers, tdw

Sorry, maybe its just me, but im a bit confused about what you are trying to do: Are you trying to parse the xml, or output it to the screen? What should you be getting?

i cant remember off hand how php deals with and's and or's and whether you need brackets or not, but try doing this <?php //... if ( ($site1 == 'All') and ($tech1 <> 'All') ) ... etc for all of those statements

I personally recommend Kubuntu, buts just personal preference... you're good to go either way. As far as Vista goes for security, i've got agree about AVG/Spybot, but are you going to dual boot? If so, make sure you install windows first, otherwise it overwrites the boot partition and makes getting back into Linux a rather long process. If you are deciding to go one way or the other, then i would advise going for Linux except if you are a big gaming fan... (although i have WoW etc running in linux) As for updates, in (k)ubuntu - theres a config file call /etc/apt/sources.list When the next version is released, you just edit that file and string replace "feisty" with "gutsy", and then apt-get dist-upgrade ... its as simple as that.

try: $day = intval($day); should do the trick. cheers, tdw

Well, can you split them into groups? When you say professions i assume you mean, IT, LAW etc... So can you have drop-down 1 with a class of professions, and drop down 2 with the sub-classes... if that makes sense... alternatively, you can use a listbox rather than a dropdown stating size in the select: <select size='10'> cheers, tdw

hehe ??? $_GET is the url parameters, not a database: so when your link goes to http://www.blah.com/page.php?name=myname $_GET["name"] would = myname in your case <?php //..... code code code echo "<input name=\"name\" maxlength=\"500\" style=\"width:150px; float:left\" size=\"500\" value='{$_GET["name"]}' /> ... should do the trick

Hi try removing the ' ' around $DecimalRemovalStrength... so $DecimalRemovalStrength = 2.4244; $addstrength = "UPDATE userregistration SET Strength=Strength+$DecimalRemovalStrength WHERE UserID='{$_SESSION['Current_User']}'"; $resultresult = mysql_query($addstrength) or die(mysql_error()); If (mysql_affected_rows() == 0) { die('Error ID 0001, contact admin on the Civilian forums immediatly about this error!'); } cheers, tdw

Yes, or can generate a random new password and send that to them... cheers, tdw
