[Purpose of ob_start ?]

@ignace, thanks for the explanation!

Can you give an example of pt 2 of yoyr list ?

[Purpose of ob_start ?]

Y'know, I would like to know this too, I have always wondered why people do this, AIK is that it is meant to make the page loads quicker as it is an output buffer, but if someone out there could explain it a little more eloquently it would be much appreciated.  It's something that I should read up on but never had the need to; kinda like regexp, which I REALLY had ought to sit down for an afternoon and LEARN.

 

Cheers,

Rw

 

I read some stuff about this last week because I saw some people around here using it, but the stuff I read didnt convince me really to use it. Nor was it extremely clear why to and why not.

Can you give us a link to that article

[Purpose of ob_start ?]

Hey guys, what's the purpose of using ob_start() in the begining of the script? I even saw alot of people turning output buffering by default in their php.ini file ! What's the benefit of this action ?

Thanks in advance

[Some really stupid questions]

Hi all,

the topic title says it all. I have some really stupid questions and i'd like to ask them here

The first is, are .cgi files (in the folder /cgi-bin/) written in C?

And can they be run on a Linux platform ?

 

I'm asking these questions, becouse i need to make a web thumb service on my website and i saw http://iecapt.sourceforge.net/. It has an open source, but it uses IE to capture screens.

Do you know any other way to do this?

[Designing an authentication script]

Hi all.

On my latest project i have to make a login system that is used in several sites ( more or less like google's ). I need some advice on how to make it secure.

I really have no idea on how to design it.

Thanks in advance.

[[SOLVED] Anyone have a clue what this is, it somehow appeared on a few of my scripts]

I had a similar problem. On every page of my website there was a code similar to this, but it was only HTML. It was an iframe, pointing to a website. This was made through a hole in your host's security. You should contact them and notify them of this.

[SEO with AJAX content?]

Google can follow javascript links now. It is evolving guys keep up

OK, but if i make all the links with an id, and then when the page loads i add the onClick event dynamically would google follow that link?

I think it wont, becouse google can't read javascript, or i'm wrong ?

[Advanced PHP OOP]

I think many of you miunderstood me  (becouse my english is bad, sorry) . No matter.

I've found what i needed.

10x to all of you for the replies

[Advanced PHP OOP]

If you can recommend something it'll be great. Thanks! 

[get html tag's attributes, text, and element type ?]

You can use Simple HTML Dom. It's a DOM selector like jQuery's but for PHP.

[SEO with AJAX content?]

Wow, thanks for the quick reply.

[SEO with AJAX content?]

Thanks for the replies guys!

But i think you didn't understand me :/

I really can't describe my idea very good becouse i'm not english

But code is universal and i'll show you what i tried to describe in my previous post

 

article108.html //using mod_rewrite to make urls more friendly

 

 //Design and stuff
<div id="content">
This article is about bla bla bla bla ...
There's an artical that's related to this one. Here's the LINK.
</div>
//design and stuff

 

And the link is this

 

<a href="article1123.html" onClick="loadArticle(1123);">

 

The bots, as you said ignore javascript. So they will follow the link article1123.html,

which is a page of the site like any other with design, navigation and the content of the article.

 

article1123.html

 

//design and stuff
<div id="content">
this is the content of article 1123....
</div>
//design and stuff

On the other hand the users, when they click on the link the js event will be fired,

the next article will be dinamycally loaded in the content div

So in theory this will work. The users will quickly load the articles via ajax+json calls, and

the bots will index pages normaly, without knowing that there's a dynamic content on the page.

I hope you understood what my idea is this time and i'll be glad to discuss the issues in this method 

[SEO with AJAX content?]

Hi,

I'm really new at seo, so i wonder if my idea will be friendly or not.

Here's my idea:

I have a webpage that loads content dynamically via ajax calls.

The part i wonder is this. I'm going to make the href of the link like this: http://site.com/articles/article1.html

and a onClick event that loads the content into the div container (getcontent.php?article=article1).

The ajax response will have the same content as the href link, but without the design just the text.

This will make the user experience much better, but will it affect seo

[Fulltext search]

I can't use neither @neil.johnson becouse the website is not on my computer it's on a host :/

[Fulltext search]

Nothing's wrong, it works, but it's not accurate enough

[Fulltext search]

I looked at some examples in the net, but here isn't a good example on how to create an accurate fulltext search. Will anyone show me how to do it. I wrote this code

SELECT * FROM lyrics WHERE MATCH (search_key) AGAINST ('"+search* +words*"' IN BOOLEAN MODE) LIMIT 10

My MySQL version is 5.0.67-community-log.

[[SOLVED] Order BY in large databases]

@Yesideez, the thing with the artist id, that exactly the way i'm doing it , and 10x both the index thing realy helped me

[[SOLVED] Order BY in large databases]

Hi all, i have a problem. I have a very big database (with small row data). I use fulltext for the search. But i'm trying to do a top 50 page , and there is my  problem. When i use a normal query, the result loads about 15-20 seconds. How can i speed it up ?

 

Mysql Version: 5.1.30

 

Query:

SELECTid, artist, title FROM lyrics ORDER BY viewed DESC LIMIT 50

 

Table Structure:

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `lyrics` (
  `id` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
  `artist` varchar(255) DEFAULT 'no_artist_name',
  `title` varchar(255) DEFAULT 'no_song_name',
  `lyrics` text,
  `letter` varchar(255) DEFAULT 'no',
  `time` varchar(255) DEFAULT NULL,
  `search_key` varchar(255) DEFAULT NULL,
  `viewed` int(30) DEFAULT '0',
  PRIMARY KEY (`id`),
  UNIQUE KEY `b` (`search_key`),
  FULLTEXT KEY `artist` (`artist`),
  FULLTEXT KEY `title` (`title`),
  FULLTEXT KEY `artist,title` (`artist`,`title`),
  FULLTEXT KEY `search_key` (`search_key`)
) ENGINE=MyISAM  DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC AUTO_INCREMENT=550857;

 

I've tried:

SELECT artist, title, id FROM lyrics WHERE MATCH(artist)AGAINST('a* b* c* d* e* f* g* h* i* j* k* l* m* n* o* p* q* r* s* t* u* v* w* x* y* z*' IN BOOLEAN MODE) AND viewed >= 1 LIMIT 50

(for now 1 is the biggest view number )

[[SOLVED] Fulltext search help]

Found it on the internet! If anyone has the same problem, here's the solution:

the wildcard is '*' (link) and is used in BOOLEAN MODE (link)

[[SOLVED] Fulltext search help]

Hi all, is it possible to use the '%' in a match .. against statement?

I keep getting resultsets with only whole-word matches, for example

 

the statement

 

select * from table_x where match(field_y) against ("%multi%");

 

does not give back the rows where field_y

(which is a TEXT field with a FULLTEXT index)

contains the word "multitasking"

 

AND how can i make it search for more than one word at a time ???

[Large SELECTS]

Ok, no matter, i found some lessons, and it isn't so hard. My final question is what would be faster to search in a database with artist and songs, where each songs is in a diffrent row, or each artist is in a diffrent row, and the songs are listed in a field separated by a comma ? An can VIEWS speed up the SELECT queries ?

[Large SELECTS]

thanks @kickstart. I can't test it right now, but as soon as i do, i'll tell you the result

BTW, is LIKE faster or REGEXP, becouse like i said the database is large and it takes a great amount of time to execute the query. And is there a way with regexp, to get only a part of a text in a row?
