Ok thanks I will look into that and make changes. I didn't do the old site, that is what I took over from. Thanks again.

Hi All, Over the summer I took over web development of a Table Tennis league website, I had no knowledge of PHP of HTML but I like programming in C# and VB so thought I would give it a go. At the start I went with full ajax site, but after being convinced that this is not the way to go I moved towards a header and sidebar with a center iFrame. What you don't get to see which was the hardest part to code, is the divisional secretary login and virtual scorecard entering. The new site is www.mtttl.co.uk and the old site I took over is www.mtttl.co.uk/old. I am still learning, so any recomendations would be welcome. Thanks

Hi All, I have taken over the web design for our local table tennis league and have been designing the new website for the past couple of months. I am not a web programmer, so it has been a big learning curve understanding html and php. http://www.mtttl.co.uk/test/index.php Old site is http://www.mtttl.co.uk I am planning to go live on Monday, all that needs doing is the logo and the home page needs some more information. Thanks

You are a star, thank you for your help.

Tried that but still no luck. $Leg1 = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['AX1']);

Field type is "TinyText". evan if I do $Leg1 = "11-1" if converts it. Does not work $Leg1 = $_POST['AX1']; mysql_query("INSERT INTO scores (Leg1) VALUES (".$Leg1.")");

Hi Eveyone, Sorry I have looked now for the last hour or so, but am stuck on this very simple priblem. I am pulling data via the $_POST command and inserting into a mysql table. The output of the post command is "11-1". I wan to insert it into the table as "11-1" but it keeps converting it to "9". I have tried "settype", "intval", "intstr" but nothing. Sorry very basic. Thanks

Hi Everyone, Don't think this can be done by I thought I would ask, I have a page that uses object tags to load external html data (Just like iframes). Have a Modal Message within my external content and when it opens it will center to the external data window. Is there anyway I can get the modal window which is being called from the external data window to center on the parent window. Thanks

I have done abit of both Object tags for the "League & Result" content, and the rest uses a generic page with php includes., I am just playing around trying to understand what I feel I like best. As I have never done any kind of web programming, I am learning something new and then changing my page code I think once I have this working I will settle with it until I have all the content finished then look at the page design again. You have to remember before this I have never touched any kind of web programming so this is all new. Thanks for your comments. Rich

I have changed to <object> tags instead of AJAX. Still need to re do some of my old pages but at least the back button works and my site will be indexed by search engines. www.richardrfarthing.org/test/live.php A few problems with CSS in IE, but I will go through the coding of everypage after I have decided on what route I am going to take. Thanks

Ok I think I am starting to understand this, I have created a front page that uses php include to include a seperate header, sidebar and footer. By doing this I then only need to modify the content page everytime. Let me know if this is the bext way to do it. Thanks

Ok new link: http://www.richardrfarthing.org/testing/live.html I am now looking at some of the design problems (Use of Ajax). Is there any way I can still use dynamic content without using Javascript or stopping the indexing of my pages within search engines? The only reason I want to use dynamic content is because only part of my page content changes, and if I change the design of the header or footer I do not want to then change 20 odd pages. I have looked at iframes but it leaves a scrollbar down the page, and I have also looked at <object type="text/html" which again is a bit messy. Any ideas. Thanks

Thanks for replying, I have taken your comments on board and will look to changing and using javascript to enchance features that are not critical to viewing. Regarding the faint white lines next to the header pictures, Yes I see them but not quite sure why they appear. In Photoshop they look fine before I save the picture, then I save the picture as jpg, quality 12, baseline (Standard), and the it seems to change the border of the image. Any ideas? Thanks

Thanks for the reply, I haven't done the javascript checking yet as I need to add it. All your other comments are very useful, as you can tell I am very new to html coding, I will go through your post and try to change what you have stated. Thanks again.

Yes I understand the problems related to ajax, which is one of the reasons I used a crumbbar. If it comes to it I can change it back to pure html. Thanks
