Sorry for not responding. I have been completely swamped with work and haven't even had time to look at this yet. As of right now I really do not have the time to figure this out so it will have to go on the back burner. Thanks though for the help. When I get a chance to work on this I will definitely make sure to ask any questions.

My word. Thanks so far! When I get home I will give this a go.

Sounds great! I can't wait to see what you come up with. I am interested to see how this is done. Sorry for the short response, I am still at work.

Sorry for the slow response. Anyway, some example code will do. If you do not mind though, could you give me a small explanation of what each part of it actually does? Nothing crazy is needed, just a few words really. That would be very helpful. Thanks

I need help, some form of explanations, ways of doing this. Like I said, I know only the very basics. I do not want someone to just spit some code at me, I would rather learn it and understand. I do not have time at the moment to learn everything there is to know about PHP, I need to get this done as soon as I can. That is why I am asking for specific help. It sounds like you understand what I am trying to do. However, I just do not know how to do any of these things. I can make a form, I can set up a MySQL database. I do not know how to make what a user inputs into the form write to a database. I also do not know how to call back that info stored in the database via PHP and display that in a easy to read manor. I hope this is not asking to much. I just don't really know where to begin. Thanks again.

Hopefully the title fits this well enough. I am having trouble explaining my idea in words and therefore am having trouble researching what I would like to do. First off, let me say that I only have the most basic understanding of web development knowledge. I can usually look stuff up and hack stuff together and make it work. I am sure none of is done very efficiently, but as long as it works I am happy. This project started off as a simple idea. I have a list of events on my page. When clicking on an event, I want it to open up a page to the right with a signup form and a "table" displaying the sign-ups. Seemed easy enough. Originally I was going to use Google Docs to accomplish this all. An embedded calendar with the events at the left. When clicking on the event it opened up the desired event page in an <iframe> to the right. Inside of that there would have been an embedded Docs form which exports the data to a docs spreadsheet. To the right of the form, the docs Spreadsheet would have been embedded. In my head this works, and on paper it works. However, when trying to embed two Google elements, one would break. Even if I had one on the page, and one embedded on a page that was being displayed via <iframe>. You can see this here, www.leagues.simrigs.com , I stopped mid way through when I realized it wasn't going to work. Anyway, so now I want to lose the whole Google aspect completely. I will have off to the left, nicely styled image "button" links to each event page. I still want the pages to open in an <iframe> off to the right. This is simple enough I want to keep it all within the same page. This part is easy enough for me. The part I am having trouble with now is the form and spreadsheet part. I can manage making the signup form. After that I am lost. I need to have this input data logged somewhere, sorted into a sensible manor, and then displayed on the page next to where they signed up. Hopefully this makes some sort of sense. It works in my mind, I just don't know how to describe it. If need be, I can do a little photoshop mockup on what I am looking for. Thanks in advance.

Hi, This may sound really ignorant around here but I will go for it anyway. I am trying to install an open source file manager that I have made some modifications to on my hosting. This is the base code. http://ecosmear.com/relay/ I have personally never worked with databases before, I mostly just do Web design. Anyway, I am having trouble getting this to work. I get this error at the end of the setup. Config Files Created Verifying Perl Installation... for the upload script @ http://thehaitiantriangle.com/datfiles/upload.pl?test ...the upload.pl script seems to be having problems. Try chmod 755 to upload. You may also need to change the 1st line to reflect the path to your perl installation, or in iis map the .pl extension to the perl executable. You may need to enable mod_cgi for .pl files Everything else was completely fine. It connected to the database that I attempted to set up, created tables, all that stuff. I do not know what this chmod 755 is, I have looked it up and dont understand where to execute this or whatever I have to do. Hopefully someone can help. I tried contacting the creator, this is a few years old now though. I would appreciate it. Again, sorry to bug you guys with this most likely primitive stuff. I just am clueless. Thanks.

Hi, I just signed up here to ask a few questions. I really only know the bare basics of PHP. I can usually get stuff done with tons of looking up other's code snippets and piecing stuff together. Anyway, I need your help. I would like to create something like this, http://filenice.com/demo/ , but with some modifications. I really like the simple design. Just a more organized directory listing pretty much. The things I would like to do with it though is have an upload function on it to upload to any specific folder, and be able to create new folders. Also, when someone uploads a file, I would like the ability to include a description and the ability to put in a name of who uploaded it. No delete function will be necessary, as that could really be abused. I also really like the search ability, and all of the details about the file. (name, size, dimensions if it is an image). Also, the BB code creator is a really nice touch. Something I do not like though is when you click an image file, it opens up a gallery. I would like that to just go straight to the image and open in a new tab. I hope this is not too much to ask. I know how to do most of these things separately, I just go insane trying to incorporate it all together. I am pretty sure it is open source. There is nothing about copyrights in any of that. If you want I will attach the file for this and maybe you guys can help work off of that? There really is not that much to change. I would greatly appreciate the help. I really need an organized system for my friends to upload their files to my hosting and not have to login. Thanks. [attachment deleted by admin]
