ok thanks for your help (for the two people who tried to help). I did think forums like this were help forums. I think people are also getting mixed up into what I am asking for. The script I need isnt linked to a database, it is a variable replace script. I know this because the hundreds of affiliate programs on the net using this script all generate the link with the ID regardless of what number I put in. I will use a simply javascript that someone posted on a forum.

Awww thank you SO much for taking the time to do this, I really really appreciate it. Just a couple of questions, do I name this php file as monkeys.php for example and do I then have the form link to it ie get action etc? Also, I would not know what each affiliates 6 digit ID is, so I could not input the id;s into the php file. I currently have hundreds of affiliates. The script is for them to input their ID in the form field, click generate links then all the urls from then on will have their ID in. Thanks again

Thanks for that, but I am really pushed for time, all I need is a snippet of code to do this simple thing. this is why I have been searching for months. I dont have the time to learn full php just to do this simple bit of script for one thing. Hundreds of webmasters have used this script so they must be getting it from somewhere. So nobody is awar of how this is done exactly? alternatively I will just have to stick with the manual way of having affiliates replace their xxxxxx by hand, not very professional but I suppose I have no choice. PS I am not only the webmaster, I am also the model of the site concerned, hence the reason I am no programmer.

Thanks for the info. I have no idea what these sites are, I ramdomly found them on google to show you an example. Ok thanks for the code, but how do I use it exactly? do I create a php file or embed it into a php page? sorry I have no knowledge of php Thanks

Hi guys, I am not a coder, but more a graphic designer and I am currently designing a ccbill affiliate program in which I urgently need to find a way to code the following: When people visit the affiliate page, affiliates are able to log in by entering their 6 digit ccbill affiliate ID. Once they log in, they are redirected to the affiliate area, where all affiliate links are embedded with their unique ID. I have seen many affiliate sites using this simple "set cookie" script but for the life of me, can I find it online!! .. absolutly no chance. I have been looking for a way to do this for around 6 months now. Here are some examples I found on google of affiliates that are using this type of code: [links to sexually oriented sites removed.] < this is the layout I want to follow, ie three steps at the bottom of the page, with the third being the login It seems they are all using a pho file to do this. Can anyone please, please help me with this, as I think this forum is my last resort after 6 months of searching for a way to do this. Many thanks!

Hi, I am hoping I have posted my current problem in the right part of this forum. As it relates to the php code, I presume this is the right place, although it also relates to a mysql database I have too. Ok, here is my problem.... I have two websites, one is a non members site and one is a paid members area site. I had a directory style script made for the non members site and want to use the same script within the members site. I paid for the script to be made and set up, which cost me quite a bit, hence the reason I am copying it all over to my other site too. The script displays thumbnials from the database, 4 across and 3 down (total of 12 thumbs per page), each linking to a URL and each thumb has a title. On the left of the webpage is categories, which when clicked, shows thumbs relating to that specific category, or all etc. The CMS forms allow us to add categories etc. Ok, now my problem is this.. I backed up the original database and created a new database on the members site where I also want this functionality. I copied all the scripts over then chenged the content of the database. On the members site I only want it to display three categories, All, Photos and Videos. So this is quite simple compared to the first site. All seemed to display fine, until I moved all the scripts into the members folder (which is accessed via ccbill). The page displays ok, but it just states "No updates found" as in, no content in the database is found. The base url in the configuration script is set to the top domain, but I have renamed the folders where the thumbs are saved to members/thumbs, but still it isnt working. I also want to change the folder name from its original name of www.domain.com/sites to the new domain.com/updates but nothing works when I try to change it. If anyone can help me out with this, I would be extremely grateful, as the workings of this script are all there, and it seems pointless having to spend hundreds on a new script to be made when the functionality is already there, but just not working right. Thanks so much!

bump please help

thanks for that! But I am still unsure of what to do exactly to get the list to show on my homepage. Is there any chance you could type the full code, how I use it etc. My homepage where I want the small list to appear is a html page, will I have to save this as a php file? And what exactly do I need to put into the hompage code, to show the list? I presume I need to use the connect to database first? Do I use an additional snippet code before this code, or is this read from another file? I presume I just put this bit of code where I want the list:- <? php SELECT field, field, .. FROM table WHERE field = value ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT 10 ?> Sorry for all the questions, I am totally new to php stuff.

Bump....can anyone help me with this?

Hi guys, I have a mysql database consisting of the following tables and fields:- Table name: People Fields: ID, name, profileurl I want to display on my homepage the 10 most recent people I add, but as clickable links ie showing name linking to profile url. With the most recent at the top of the list. I also have another table: updates Fields: title, url I also want to show the last 25 updates displaying title as clickable link to the url If anyone can give me a php code to display this, that would be great, thanks so much!

Thanks for that! very helpful:) Can I not put the url link in a separate field within the same table as the description text? Just wondering why it has to be in a separate table? Thanks!

Thanks for the reply. Hmm ok, so how would you recommend I make a simple links site, with links shown as descriptions by using a mysql database. Sorry if I am posting in the wrong section, but I am really stuck as to what to do next. Basically, my site will be numerous webpages, each webpage will be for an individual person, and I would like to display links that relate to that person on their webpage, but shown as description. I know how to set up a mysql database via my hosting provider, and I know how to populate it via phpmyadmin. I could always set up a php script to populate the database instead if you feel this is a better method. Its just this displaying of links as decriptions that driving me crazy, lol :'( Thanks for your help!

Hi guys, I am slowly learning about php and mysql. I am inputting my database via phpmyadmin. However, I am struggling on something I just can't seem to find an answer on, and thats displaying url data on a webpage, using php, but as text links, for eg "Joe bloggs runs down the road" that is clickable and opens in a new window. Do I have to imput the URL in a separate field from the description within a database table, and display them as text links via customised php code, or is there a way of setting this up in phpmyadmin or mysql so that one field displays as a text link? Any suggestions? Your help would be really appreciates as I am totally stuck :-\ Many thanks!

depends whats involved in the coding, I can replace bits if copies form other areas, but I have no knowledge of php. Are there any scripts online that I can modify? Could you suggest one, and maybe I can paste it into here for people to help me with. Many thanks

Hi guys, I am posting on here in desperate need for some help with an ongoing search I have been doing for the last few weeks. Basically I have searched the web, high and low for a "mail to a friend" php (or even javascript) code that will: 1) Send a friend the URL of the page they clicked the "mail a friend" link from. and 2) The submit form HAS to have some form of captcha code to stop spamming. And if possible shows the URL that is going to be sent as a preview to the sender. I have honestly searched everywhere, seen some good scripts but they either dont work or are missing one of the above that I need. I dont even mind paying a small fee it if does what I want it to do. I have a 600 page website so I need more than a refer my website script, it has to be a refer this webpage script. Also, one other thing, is there a way of adding a "tweet this webpage" so that visitors can click on it and it then takes them to the mail twitter log in page, they log in and their tweet defaults to "Wow check out this great webpage (puts the url in from the page they clicked "tweet this page"). Hope that makes sense and any help would be SO appreciated as I have given up the search, lol. Thanks again
