wow thank you! Now I see that I wont need to keep track of that number, I was thinking I would need to know remember a running total so it would access the images from 1 to the image with that number you've given me alot to read, in links and about these functions thank you genericnumber1

Ive post on this forum on about 5 different an perfectly valid questions and I have got sarcasm in almost every reply. I was NOT asking you to WRITE it I just want to know which language would be appropriate for each task, and if you knew of helpful hint maybe tell me about it.

Ok here we go! I want to have a text box in which the user can input a url for a .jpg, .gif, or .png. I want it to download it to a certain folder and rename usbr0001, then usbar0002 ect. Then check it to be a valid image, and make sure it is in a certain size range. then i want a script on  a certain page that will look up how many file (??how should i store this number??) pictures are save and display them, next to a checkbox, say, 100 per page. I want to somehow save which pics the user select(this will be helped out be another forum, one that is specific to the system of user profile that I am using just  to let you know know that this will be done) Finally I need to create a function(in php?) to display a random 5 out of the the pictures selected by the users in a looping animation. Sorry that was kinda lengthy. So for the question, would some be able to give me an idea of what language to use for each section of that code, and a basic idea of how to do each(or one any that you know) thank you.

[quote author=ober link=topic=118134.msg483291#msg483291 date=1165932058] Which beta site are you talking about? [/quote] Ha Ha i was just answering your question!

i looked around the opera site for 20 minutes then googled opera beta and got this:http://snapshot.opera.com/windows/ ok i will try the new release

[quote author=ober link=topic=118134.msg482922#msg482922 date=1165872047] I'm using 9.10, build 8660 (one of the latest beta builds). [/quote] you sure abot that? i went to there beta site and its not there i have the newest. Maybe they took it off of beta???

oki for me its 9.02 8585, so maybe i should use a beta versionand see how that works?

hmm well when i test it on my opera 9.xxx(not at home right now) it is slowed way down but on firefox it works great. my version of opera was uptodate as of 3 weeks ago so it is a fairly recent build.

incredible, I just tested with firefox, and it works pefectly. This must be one of Operas "features". Should I make up one one those reports to send in to opera?

Well I have gotten my star rater working. It is a simple ajax system that highlights the stars on roll over and votes without refreshing. see it slowed down here: http://zfiles.110mb.com/?Page=rate When I add many of the to one page (about 50) it is slows way down, as in the rollover effects are delayed almost 2 seconds. This happens gradually as more are added. Why would have multiple ajax pieces on one page slow down each one it only 1 is being actively used. Is there anyway to fixed this, and even if there isnt could someone give me a good explanation of why this is happening? I am a noob to ajax but i want to learn so I wont be a noob anymore ;D.

well i just mixed it in with all the other stuff in the root directory, not the best practice but....

ha ha He used to answer questions, then it became so popular he wrote a message in his blog that he will no longer answer any support questions ever. So thats why i posted here

I am using this code http://www.masugadesign.com/the-lab/scripts/unobtrusive-ajax-star-rating-bar/ When I open the spply index.php in the same directory as the scripts it works like it should, but If i move the index.php down one(closer to root) and adjust all of the refereces according to the readme it trys just does nothing. also I can get the pictures to display anywhere yet but I will work on that later. in with scripts http://zfiles.110mb.com/files/ratebar/ one folder up http://zfiles.110mb.com/files/ why doesnt' it work in both spots, and how can i make it work?

i guess i have to bumb this one again.

this is the code in question even tho it says a differant file this is the one where the problem code is: http://zfiles.110mb.com/extensions/PageMng/fixed.php here is the site in question http://zfiles.110mb.com/?Page=requests

wow ok i been working on this all day. I found some source code for an ajax script including js, php and more. If i try it on my site in the oridginal for i get a parse error. I didnt try that until i hav taken ot alot of html stuff and i got a notice. this code shows up right but i get this notice: "Notice: Undefined variable: url in /www/110mb.com/z/f/i/l/e/s/_/_/zfiles/htdocs/extensions/PageMng/default.php(802) : eval()'d code on line 89" it doesnt work either. here is the original site: http://video.qooqle.jp/dl/ it offers the source code. thanks guys for all the replys so far ;D

It works if it is placed on the google page via a browser plugin. I want to be able to get the download link from a supplyed google video url from a remote website. Did you take a look at http://www.videodl.org/   Obviously the code I supplied will not do that by itself!, not unless it is, at least, somewhat adapted.

I posted this exact same post I the javascript forum and someone told me to post it in the php forum, so thats why I posted here. They said to leave the old thread there so people know that you need php to do this. I looed for it now but that thread seemed to have been deleted. I want it to use that code, or something to the same affect, to find the absolute download link to a google video as they do on www.videodl.org I think they use ajax, but I dont have a clue how to impliment that on my site or for that matter how to use ajax at all, I have been reading the basics about in the last few days tho.

*bump again* *sigh*

[CODE]<a href="#" onclick="this.href=unescape(document.getElementById(\'VideoPlayback\').src.match(/videoUrl=([^$)]*)/)[1]);this.firstChild=\'Download Flash Video\';return false;" style="color:#FFFFFF; font-weight:bold; font-size:10px;">Find Flash Video</a>[/CODE] That code is part of a plugin for firefox that makes a link to the actual download path(to download the .flv). I will do anthing it takes to make this code work from a remote website and return the download address without having to refresh. I want it to then download the movie to a sever, whitch i do have authorazation for, but i could figure that out on my own as long i can get this part to work. This is my first time posting at this forum and I am new to web design i hope you guys will be able to help me along with this I know it can be done, maybe not with this code but something similar check out [url=http://www.videodl.org/]http://www.videodl.org/[/url] i want it to do that but instead of giving a link, have it download the file to my server. ps i have been trying for 4 days now but i still dont know where to start other that i need to use a server side script thank you ~zak~
