I suggest PHP freaks to introduce a link or button that shows all posts one ever made It could go very well under these two: Show unread posts since last visit. Show new replies to your posts.

Hi freaks! I need help on how to update form fields (text boxes and menus) at once using PHP and MySQL. Like in some forums , one call edit all fields on personal details or pictures then update them all at once. I hope I'm clear.

Hello Freaks! How can one put two or more component modules in Joomla, each displaying different content? I have seen sites that have done this before. Somebody explain how its done.

Hi. I recently desined my joomla template and installed it. I need help on afew things. 1. How do I put a second component module on my site and have it display different content from the first one depending on what is entered in the back end? Once I do this, how do I make each display different content? 2. I need to add a latest projects/news area on the right or left side of the website where I enter a short phrase on a topic with a read more button. How can this be achieved? 3. How do I make my own menus be recognised in joomla? I have my menus with dropdown capability designe using css and I need to be able to assign different templates to different pages,yet clearly,I haven't used joomla menus.

No problem.

Amazing! Thanks alot.

Thanks for your reply. I need to know how to edit any template to make it usable in joomla or be able to use joomla on any template.

Hi guys? I need help and guidance on how to deal with CMS and templates: Joomla in particular Either to Use any template in joomla,that is not necessarily a joomla-based template. Or Come up with my own engine that I can use on any template. I believe the above 2 are more or less the same. Any guidance, tools or sources?

Actually it worked! Just sth missing in SQL. I will try row as total as well. Good for me to learn,thanks

Im using mysql_fetch_array() and my query is; $sql = "SELECT SUM(Quantity *Value) FROM stocktable AS TOTAL"; $result = dbQuery($sql); while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { $totalvalue = $row["SUM(Quantity*Value)"]; } Also,I have noticed one may omit the phrase "as total" from the sql. Besides that,what could be the issue?

Hi? It looks like it should be working but I get "Resource id#8" when I "echo $result;"

Thanks guys. However,what I need is to get the total or sum of quantity * value not sum of quantity * sum of value. ie (quantity * value + quantity * value + quantity * value),etc like in my example table above.

Hi guys. I need to achieve a certain result through PHP and MySQL maths functions. I have a tableasfollows ItemID, ProductName, Quantity, Value I can get the total quantity. I need to get the total value. This requires me to get the total sum of the product of quantity and Value something like SUM(Quantity*Value) if I have 3 records as follows: ItemID ProductName Quantity Value 1 Fruits 3 100 2 Books 5 200 3 Machines 2 500 The total value of fruits is 300, books 1000 and machines 1000. Total value of all is 2300. How do I achieve this (2300) in SQL and PHP? ie 3 * 100 5 * 200 2 * 500 I hope I'm clear

Use Javascript and mix it with PHP Like what you have been given or window.location.href and make target blank

Hi. I have used the following CSS code to remove the horizontal scroll but it does not work in IE body { background: #580000 url(images/header_bg.jpg) repeat-x; font: 14px, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; overflow-x: hidden; } The horizontal scroll is still there! Anyone knows another way to deal with it?

try putting variables lie you did on the select $loginres = mysql_query($query); $numrows = mysql_num_rows($loginres); else, tell us what error(s) you get. If it is a blank page, check if your form(s) and code have the same variables, ie $_GET or $_POST and/or your database table names

<? $bday = date("F d,Y"); echo $bday; ?>

Not sure what you want. Check out... www.php.net/manual/en/function.date.php There are very many ways to deal with date using PHP's date() function
