[BXML ?]

Is there any way to view a .bxml file ?

[Little help if someone has time.]

Thanks. Setting the background color works.

[Little help if someone has time.]

If you take a look at the way it appears now, I had to create a background color on the list menu that was close to the gradient image behind it. What I am looking to do, if possible, is get rid of that sold background color and have the list menu transparent so that the gradient image appears as the list menu background.  I was able to do a semi transparent list menu, but then the text in the menu was also semi transparent. Are there any ways to do this?

 

ooppss, sorry I overread where you mentioned to use a UL.. I'll check into that. But if someone else wants to chime in, let me know, thanks.

Or is there a better way to scroll through a list of members other than using a list menu?

[Little help if someone has time.]

I have a list menu that is populated from mysql. Right now it looks like it doesn't blend with the site. Is there a way to create a transparent background on the list menu so it looks like it belongs on the page?

Here is a link to the site.

Any input would be appreciated. Thanks.

[securing a page]

If I limit a page to a certain user meaning

 

username, password, and ip

 

is that strong security to keep others out?

[Ok to do this way?]

a user can go back and update their profile, to display what they previously selected from the radio buttons, i use the following

<?php if($gender_prof == 'male') { echo '
      <input name="gender" type="radio" id="gender" value="male" checked="checked" /> male  
      <input type="radio" name="gender" id="female" value="female" /> female'; } else { echo ''; } ?> 
      <?php if($gender_prof == 'female') { echo '
            <input name="gender" type="radio" id="gender" value="male" /> male  
      <input type="radio" name="gender" id="female" value="female" checked="checked" /> female'; } else { echo ''; } ?>

Is this an ok way to acomplish this, or is there a better way?

[How does this little script look?]

I know what you mean,

switch

$delete_this = $_GET['delete_id'];

 

to

$delete_this = mysql_real_escape_string($_GET['delete_id']);

 

and yes, I had $got_you in the code for future add-ons to the script, it is probably best to leave it out til it is needed?

 

So would that be about it with the mysql_real_escape_string ?

 

What else could someone do?

[How does this little script look?]

Wouldn't they only be able to change it if they knew what the session variable name was?  If they didn't know about "session who", then how could they change it? It is not a variable that is passed through the url.

[How does this little script look?]

Is there anything else that I should have, security I mean?

 

<?php
session_start();

if( (isset($_SESSION['who'])) || (isset($_SESSION['auth'])) )
{
  include 'connection.php';
  $delete_this = $_GET['delete_id'];
  $got_you = $_SESSION['who'];
  $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM my_table WHERE id = '$delete_this' ");
  while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result))	
  {
   $server_pic = $row['imgpath'];
   $server_file = $row['track_loc'];
  }
  unlink($server_pic);  //removes picture from server
  unlink($server_file);  //removes file from server
  mysql_query("DELETE FROM my_table WHERE id='$delete_this'");  //remove track info from db
  mysql_query("DELETE FROM my_table2 WHERE track_id = '$delete_this'");  //remove track comments from db
  mysql_query("DELETE FROM my_table3 WHERE track_id = '$delete_this'");  //remove best lap time info from db

  mysql_close();
  header("location:my_page.php");
  exit();
}

?>

[secure php admin page]

yeh, your right myAdmin is the best bet. Thanks.

[secure php admin page]

I'm looking to create a secure page that will pretty much show what is in my databse. This page will also allow me to edit what is in the database(delete,modify,etc.) What would the be the best way to secure this from other members reaching this page? I was thinking

 

-check ip, if ip is mine let me in, if not, no entry

-check session member name, same as above

 

I really need to have this page secure so all the other members could not go in and delete anything.

 

Any ideas?

 

 

[if statement starting to get tricky for me]

Sorry if that got confusing. All I'm looking to do is check to see if the extension is a .zip or .rar

 

(document.form2.track.value.lastIndexOf("Check for rar and zip here")==-1)

 

Can this be done with 2 extensions?

 

[if statement starting to get tricky for me]

The code at the bottom of this post works, I would like to also add something like this to it

(document.form2.track.value.lastIndexOf(".rar",".zip")==-1)

The text box id track can only accept a .rar or a .zip,

I'm sure the code above is wrong. Could anyone help me out so that i could add it to the coding below. Thanks.

 

 

if ((!form2.track_name.value) || (!form2.description.value) || (!form2.track.value) || (!form2.image.value) || (document.form2.image.value.lastIndexOf(".jpg")==-1))
{
       	var messID = document.getElementById("flash_vid_table");
	messID.style.display = "none";

}
else
{
    	var messID = document.getElementById("flash_vid_table");
	messID.style.display = "block";
	document.body.style.cursor = 'wait';
}

[Could someone please help me?]

ooppss, i have the flu and am way out of it. thanks, i'll give it a shot.

[Could someone please help me?]

I can't get this to function properly. It gets the ip address, it the ip is a certain ip, it does not add it to the counter and displays the same count, otherwise add it to the counter and display it. With the code below, it just displays "0 times"

<?php
session_start();
$ip=$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
if ($ip != '184.59.170.237')
{
$guy = fopen('counterlog.txt', r);
$dog = fread($guy, filesize('counterlog.txt'));
echo 'This site has been visited&nbsp' . $dog+1 . ' times.';
fclose($guy);
$guy = fopen('counterlog.txt', w);
fwrite($guy, $dog+1);
}
else
{
$guy = fopen('counterlog.txt', w);
fwrite($guy, 1);
echo 'This site has been visited&nbsp' . $dog+0 . ' times.';
fclose($guy);
}
?>

This seems to not work properly

[flyin popup how to?]

something like an auto centering popup?

[if statement help]

here is the whole block of code that i recently tried. my flash video won't play at all, even if category and physics value is something other than 1. that is my only prob.

if ((!form2.track_name.value) || (!form2.description.value) || (!form2.track.value) || (!form2.image.value) || (form2.category.value !== 1) || (form2.physics.value !== 1))
{
       	var messID = document.getElementById("flash_vid_table");
	messID.style.display = "none";

}
else
{
    	var messID = document.getElementById("flash_vid_table");
	messID.style.display = "block";
	document.body.style.cursor = 'wait';
}

[if statement help]

if ((!form2.track_name.value) || (!form2.description.value) || (!form2.track.value) || (!form2.image.value) || (form2.category.value != 1) || (form2.physics.value != 1))

 

cant seem to get this right. i'm looking to have the statment say  that if    track_name, description, track and image are not empty, and category and physics do not have a value of 1, then do something.  the only part that i can't get to work properly is the category and physics not having a value of 1.

[only allow this to insert into the database]

anyone

[only allow this to insert into the database]

I guess what I'm looking to do is just grab the param value and the embed source from what they pasted and then use that in my own custom embed code.

[only allow this to insert into the database]

i have a text field which users can paste video embed code which will then get inserted into a database. what i'm looking to do is always have the same size, color(all the properties that are in the example below) no matter what the user changes in there embed code before they pasted it in the text field.

<object width="320" height="265"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/ZuwP5C-1jJU&hl=en_US&fs=1&rel=0&color1=0xe1600f&color2=0xfebd01"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/ZuwP5C-1jJU&hl=en_US&fs=1&rel=0&color1=0xe1600f&color2=0xfebd01" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="320" height="265"></embed></object>

If anyone understands what I am explaining, is there a way to do this. I don't want the user to paste an embed code with a huge width and height. And even if they do, i would like to have it changed to the 320 by 265 on the fly. Thanks.

[what does -> mean?]

thanks.

[what does -> mean?]

So are there other ways to write that?

[what does -> mean?]

I was browsing around google and came across this script.    What does the -> stand for?

<?php
include_once ("usersOnline.class.php");
$visitors_online = new usersOnline();

if (count($visitors_online->error) == 0) {

if ($visitors_online->count_users() == 1) {
	echo "There is " . $visitors_online->count_users() . " visitor online";
}
else {
	echo "There are " . $visitors_online->count_users() . " visitors online";
}
}
else {
echo "<b>Users online class errors:</b><br /><ul>\r\n";
for ($i = 0; $i < count($visitors_online->error); $i ++ ) {
	echo "<li>" . $visitors_online->error[$i] . "</li>\r\n";
}
echo "</ul>\r\n";

}
?>
