Hello Everyone I have been looking over the internet for a few hours now. But I could not find solution to my problem. I am having trouble changing the default view of the products being displayed in the shop page. They are like thumbnails, I can change how many of them will appear on a line or on a page. But I want to change the view to list. I want a list of products to appear with the add to cart button. I am sending a link as an example to how i actually want it to be http://abduls.biz/shop/

I am having trouble posting a script using my html form.. If i remove functions like mysql_real_escape_string() or htmlentities() the query execution gives error like characters ' or " are causing problems, I want to post a script with <script>code</script> in the field and want it working on the html page as it is coded on an html page.. Can anyone help? This is the input field Description</b></td><td><textarea name="news_des" cols="50" rows="7"> extracting the information if(!empty($_POST['news_des'])) { $news_des = mysql_real_escape_string(trim(htmlentities($_POST['news_des']))); // to get tags along }else { $error[] = 'You forgot to enter the News Description!'; }

I have a search box which uses multiple query depending on the search criteria the following queries work just fine select * from `car_post` where `approve` = '1' and `caru_city` = '2' select * from `car_post` where `approve` = '1' and `caru_make` = '7' and `caru_city` = '2' These queries mentioned above work just fine.. but i want the results to show the latest entries in the table so write the query as select * from `car_post` where `approve` = '1' and `caru_make` = '7' and `caru_city` = '2' ORDER BY caru_id DESC This query works perfectly fine in the SQL client.. it gives the results there... but as i am using it on my page.. by just adding ORDER BY caru_id DESC The query gives the following error You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'DESCLIMIT 0, 10' at line 1 I dont understand if the query is working all fine in the sql client directly why isnt it working here?

Hello, I have a small issue i am using a facebook login script that allows users to log into the website with there facebook user account. I want to extract information regarding the user and feed it directly to my database like there name, sex, address etc from there facebook account. I am attaching the facebook script that i am using to this post. can any help me or give me suggestions on how to do that? facebook_script.php-5Dec-2012.php

well a nice suggestion the over standing will help me getting my status wheather the employee owes the organisation or not.. the condition u mentioned is all fine as well.. but i want the status to be updated on the end of the month beacause the salaries are issued at the end of the month... plus i want to transfer the remainging amount if negative to the next month status which will than 1st get minus from the basic pay!!

i wanted a way to work out a small task i am into.. i have developed a salary program which manages the salary of employees in my organisation.. the salary program is working all good.. but now i am stuck in a situation.. the salary program works as follows : -the employee is selected during the month if the employee takes any advance his amount on the that specific date is added to the db -an employee can take advance salary before the 30th of the month on his need which is added to the db - i have a created a script that shows all the advances of the employee selected during the month and subtracts the advances from the basic pay and shows the result.. eg : employee david basic salary 5000$.. total advance 2750$ remaing sal basic-advance Now the problem i am in is that some times the advance increase from the basic pay.. which is allowed in certain situation.. than the remaining amount is in minus like advance 6000 and basic pay is 4000 soo -2000 is remaing.. i want the negative amount to automatically be forwarded in the next month advance on every 30th of the month.. soo that i can manage the advance salaries properly.. does any one have a good suggestion?

the script on the link you sent me prints the complete webpage all i want is the table to be printed avoiding the stuff like the header, sidebar foot etc.. just the resulting table should be printed

I have a salary system made using php and html.. in which i calculate the monthly salary of my employees.. as a result i get a table on which the salary are displayed.. all i wanted to know how can i add print button with the table and print that table? is there a good solution for this in php?

Thanx alot it works.. but i do not get how the logic works.. would you mind explaining it a bit?

i have the folowing code.. <select name="month"> <?php for($i=1; $i<=12; $i++) { echo "<option value='$i'>$i</option>"; } ?> </select> in the above code what is happening is a simple display of 1 to 12 months in a drop menu.. i am using the date function to get the month date('m'); what i want is that the drop down should automatically focus on month 7 as this is the 7th month.. The selection of the month from the drop down should automatically move to the current month.. and if the user wants to change the month he can change the month he wants to.. right now it displays a list focussing on 1 as 1 is the starting value in the loop.. i hope you understand. i am attaching a thumbnail of what i have in the results.. all i want is 1 to be changed by the current month with the other digits being displayed on drop down!
