why not break it down into seperate queries than once that works work on combining them into 1 query

it wasnt the braces that solved the error. it was the single quotes around the variable. mysql must know that what you are trying to find isnt another field, so ya must enclose the text within quotes. WHERE username = lisa will look for a field name lisa WHERE username = 'lisa' will look for lisa in the username column the braces help seperating yer variables from the string. and ya shud pass any strings through mysql_real_escape_string to avoid some nasty mysql injections. good luck

Myself, I begin with layout / data first. Making a simple html form or outline helps a lot. This will also help in u visualizing what data u will need. Such as a registration forms, blog outlines. with the data i need, i decide on how to store that data db/flatfile/outside source. with just that, i begin coding, as the data gives a good direction to how to handle the data (input validation/error handling) than finally the core processing code, whut the heck we do with all that data. it may take some time, but giving yerself an outline of the finish product is a great way to start. Anyways good luck

Like I said, if ya stuck with the code I gave ya initially, its not hard getting just the days which are open <?php // Get Todays Date list($m,$d,$y)=explode('/','10/17/2008'); //Generate random days schedule $sch=array(); for($counter=intval(floor($d/2));$counter>0;$counter--) { do { $sd = rand(1,$d); } while (array_search($sd,$sch)!=false); $sch[]=$sd; } //Initialize our array $dim=array_fill(1,$d,false); // Fill in our Schedule foreach ($sch as $val) $dim[$val]=true; // Show our Schedule foreach ($dim as $day) echo date('m/d/Y',mktime(0,0,0,$m,$day,$y)). '-' . ($day?'Closed':'Open') ."<BR>\n"; is the initial code I gave if ya look at the last routine, which is show the schedule, a simple modification, ya can have it build an array of days that are open. $opendates = array() foreach ($dim as $day) if(!$day) $opendates[]=$day; now $opendates has a list of days that is open. I did say, I hope ya understand the code. cuz if ya understood it, it wudn have been difficult to make those modifications. Good Luck

U can generate a password a number of ways. lets try a simple one eh function generatepw($length = 6) { $allowed = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789!@#$%^&*()_-+="; $password=''; for($i=0;$i<$length;$i++) $password .= substr($allowed,rand(0,strlen($allowed)-1),1); return $password; } very simple method

I wud take it to a site that is geared for torrent trackers. There are too many scripts / functions for a person to go over and understand it all. Whereas a forum geared for tracker scripts, ya will find a number of users who have successfully installed and modded such script, as well as give ya a pros/cons to that script. take a look over at bvlist they may be able to help u as they try and support some of these unsupoorted torrent tracker projects

CheckBoxes either return the value or dun so ya can use isset to determine the value $checkbox = isset($_GET['mycheckbox'])?1:0; 1 if it was checked 0 if it wasnt

U grab stuff between the & tags (preg_match) apply the hightlighting apply codes that wont interfere with the bbcode/smilie parser reinsert this block back into the message the message can be stored in its bbcoded state. for special codes ya can look here Special HTML Codes by replacing the '[' with the special code, ya avoid the bbcode parser alltogether, than it comes to any smilies that may be in the code.

Yes, but under windows ya needs a third party application. which generally creates a virtual nic for yer machine. A few years ago, I used Sygate Office Networking. which made my pc into a router for the other 2 pcs. Under Linux, ya can assign more than 1 ip per nic

Now if this is web based, ya can take a huge shortcut. and google Google Site Search as for a custom made one as u define will be very slow if the search has to do this everytime. yer best bet is to use mysql or similar db (ya might get away with sqlite v3) and use text matching for the searches, this is after u strip out the html tags. If the pages are located in the same dir, ya can do a checksum of the pages and their content as well. Anyways good luck

Ya shudda stuck with the code I gave ya. and just added the routine ya needed ya wudda been done a lot sooner

I see a javascript displaying a pic depending on which menu item is highlighted. dun see many more images on that page

I take it ya missed the part about using various static info. one of them being IP. there was a reason for using a db for these keys as well. but ya have to read the whole post in order to get a hint of what can be done. and I did say that was a simple form. using md5, and 5 pieces of info from the user profile/details. I have helped a friend make a 96 character key, 3 md5's checksums tied together. these keys have a lifespan of 2 weeks. so all in all not a bad system.

Careful with that, ya might get a divide by zero $rating = round(($points && $totalvotes)?($points / $totalvotes):0); is all u need, cuz ya only have 1 - 5 as a scale so dividing the total points by total votes will still give u a range of 1 - 5 using the round function well makes shure yer at a whole number switch($ratiing) { case 1: // 1 star break; . . default: // no stars } or use if/ifelse/else structure

using md5 with various bits of info $link="http://my.site.com/qlogin.php&key=". md5($username . $password) wud be the simplest form, of course ya want more static info in there. but ya can save the key into the db, and create these keys with other non static info, if done with a db, ya can also throw in all sorts of info. Such as IPs allowed Date restrictions Expirations and so forth

that depends on how u store yer card values. I wud think, ya wud want to store them by numerical and suit weight. that way ya can pull pairs quckly.

Hope it all makes sense now Good luck

From switch ($imgUrl) To switch ($domain) Repetitive, just follow the pattern From case 1: if($domain=="http://webdesign.pmcsravenstone.com"){ $imgUrl="web.png"; break; To case "http://webdesign.pmcsravenstone.com": $imgUrl="web.png"; break;

Yes, its possible. ya wud never use yer login info in yer link. Usually such links are ip based, meaning, ya wud make a link for each location ya plan on. and possibly temp links (links good for only a few logins or a period of time) but the options are pretty much endless

Not too shure about an OS tutorial, especially on Linux. With the different types of distros out there, ya will find a tutorial concentrating on one distribution. As such its installation procedures. And Believe me some installations of Linux itself can painful. (Not to mention if the network connectivity isnt set up, how to get help). ya may consider using a small linux distro (DSL) or a virtual PC (VirtualBox) to get ya started in linux, cuz a simple setup and accessibility to help is no doubt a requirement for new users.

<?php $phones = $_POST['phone']; // Get The Form Values $new = ""; // Initialize our string $x = 1; // Initialize a counter $c = count($phones); // How many items did we get from the form foreach($phones AS $phone){ // loop through each item from form $pipe = ($x == $c) ? "" : "|"; // is it last item? Yes - add Blank, No - add | to our string $new .= $phone . $pipe; // add to our string the current item and optional | $x++; // prepare for next item } ?>

movietype_name = '" . $_POST['movie_name'] . "', did u try removing that comma at the end?

why not just use implode, yer function does the same thing as implode <?php $phones = $_POST['phone']; $new =implode('|',$phones); ?>

yer problem lies with this line if ($child[0] == '.') {continue;} it shud compare against . .. if ($child == '.' || $child== '..') {continue;} otherwise any file with . as first chatacter will be ignored, and cause it to fail

Here ya goes <?php // Get Todays Date list($m,$d,$y)=explode('/','10/17/2008'); //Generate random days schedule $sch=array(); for($counter=intval(floor($d/2));$counter>0;$counter--) { do { $sd = rand(1,$d); } while (array_search($sd,$sch)!=false); $sch[]=$sd; } //Initialize our array $dim=array_fill(1,$d,false); // Fill in our Schedule foreach ($sch as $val) $dim[$val]=true; // Show our Schedule foreach ($dim as $day) echo date('m/d/Y',mktime(0,0,0,$m,$day,$y)). '-' . ($day?'Closed':'Open') ."<BR>\n"; Hope it makes sense to u, a simple array with marks if yer open/closed for those days
