I-D Ten T Clever shit...haha I'd be comfortable saying that in front of a customer. I might actually borrow that term for future use. Sam!, We have an ID10T up here, I need your help. stat! And scurry away right as Sam reaches the customer.

aren't you wanting to use $row_g instead of $query_g anyways

Yeah root access is always good. I've never had it on any webserver I've owned so it probably doesn't bother me not to have but it probably would seeing has there is all that space and nothing to do with it but upload. Usually I'd expect a dedicated server to come with root acces. I've never seen a typical hosting site provide it though Great pricing though! you can't beat $180/(2 years and 5 months)

a petabyte

It's hard to believe that the day has come where a terabyte of storage is actually only 100 bucks

This is why time() doesn't take any arguments..so it will only return the current days unix timestamp.. so you are basically telling $exp to convert TODAY in that m-d-Y format

haha...there we go

I knew someone would say it sooner or later. :/ that's just it...who has the time that would take an awfully long time and and lot of research to make a decent product......IF it were worth I doubt it is, but it seems interesting...

Well, I doubt the intentions of simple biography are to make headline news....I know your being eccentric..but that's pretty far'fetched. I really wouldn't know where to start though.... I know where I can start, but where I start and someone else starts is two different things....I pretty much started learning PHP here. with the exception two books I bought years ago. If we could get Eric's take on it....we could actually get the "Once upon a time" aspect of it all

Although, other than admin, moderator and PFR promotions and demotions I can't really think of what it would be about. I'm sure the statistics could be thrown in there and the little behind the scenes scuffles that go on. But most of all that is just nostalgia for whoever reads it. What really matters in a history book is the milestones. Who was there? Why it happened? Also it would need some sort of point of view of an outsider. Point of views of what phpfreaks meants to them; how they found it. What the general consensus on the internet was about it. So the history would have to be written once by us and then recrafted or re-written in such a way that it wasn't biased...or if you may....an autobiography. If you get me? Eric would play a big part in it in the beggining and word on the streets is...he never has much time for anything. If all of that were to come together as one....then if would make for a great book/biography/history

I've mentioned writing a book a few times before but the problem always is....who is going to write it? I'd like to write it but I doubt I could write an actual book...like...something more than 5 pages. I'm sure the history of this place could be written pretty descript enough that it fits into a small book but it would take a lot of research.....and it would probably take more than one person....or SEVERAL interviews

of course...that's the proper way of connecting and all... but on the mysql side of it all....you need to ALLOW domain A to connect.. or else you'll get an error saying something like error connection...using password YES are you using phpmyadmin or are you using the mysql shell to acces your database?

As mods: I remember czambran, Masna, theverychap, ...yeah I remember gizmola with the baby avatar..lol...um. there has to be some people missing.

I think the word Internet has just been thrown around so much throughout the years that it has actually lost it's meaning. The internet is not a real location. We are not on the Internet. All of us are just networked to a network of networks. A spiderweb of spiderwebs. The best example I can think of would be Google. If you think Google is in one city, then no. It's in several and the building/servers are spanned across the world. If they weren't....then EVERYONE would be connected to one building at one time. And that ONE building would have to get information for the entire world.. It almost seems logical to have a Google company in the UK to collect information there easier....because it is logical..most people from UK will go there, because it's quicker for them. Almost like the same reason there are several Six Flags theme parks spanned around the US. It would have to be one damned good theme park to be in one location...and it would have to hold it's own for all the traffic that would come through. So what I'm getting at is all these....ISPs....are simply leasing out connections to larger ISPs who have connections to larger ISPs. Actually, there isn't really a larger ISP. Excluding the IEEE standards and such. Hopefully someone can fill in the blanks on the rest of this because my mind has went blank now.....but I hope I've done some good

PHP does not embed video... PHP can embed HTML which embeds video... the only thing that PHP does is write to the browser.....it can also do math and plenty of other things....like connect to MySQL, use cURL, SOAP, interact with images...which is basically the GD Library (which is basically just A LOT of MATH), and plenty more. But when all is said and done......all PHP does is Write to the browser. If you tell it to write HTML code.....it will write HTML code if the HTML code has embedded video in it....then it will have embedded video in it.

It doesn't seem too long ago when you first redid the website for these people to begin with. Now you're redoing your own design. I think it's an amazing upgrade. I'm pretty sure that by the time everything's said and done .. the page will validate and what not and you will have already asked us to critique a few more logos here and there. I really like the contrast in this one as opposed to the other one. Great color scheme. My only question is....not that this one doesn't look spectacular....what was wrong with the first one?

that would work Although you can only use it once and for only one function per script. If you die...so to speak. The script terminates on the contrary though you can do this function someFunction() { return false; } someFunction() or print("This function has failed by god");

It's a Really simple drop and drag process. Install the new hard drive as slave first....drop and drag and then install it as master and do what you will with the 60. I'll gladly take it.

try putting float:left into your li CSS EDIT: nevermind that...I misread your post try it anyway...it might work...lol

Sorry - I'm a little confused by this statement. Does this mean I've misunderstood the purpose of functions to cut down on unecessary What I meant was that there's no reason to create a function to do something that small. you can just as easily do $getTwenty = $somevariable * .2 there's really not point in it. Now if you wanted to take 20 percent of it and then calculate that onto something else...and use that result to create an image and use ..certain data you get to return a name or some HTML...then I'd recommend making a funciton. Functions are meant to take input and put it into output that would otherwise take too many lines of procedural code. Say for instance you wanted to be able to just say creaepage("blue") and out pops and entire page already created in a blue format. Or if you wanted to get the statistics of one person by just their name getStats("ralph") and out pops an entire table full of all the information you want. That's how functions are meant to work. Of course most of the time these kind of functions are built within classes but that's a different story altogether (see OOP). But that's the jist of it

I'm no Java expert, but if it were up to me I'd use Flash..

well....there is no reason whatsoever to make a function to do percentages....but I can see you're just earning and that's always good. To help you out..this could consolidate it all. function doPercent($p, $x) { switch($p) { case 20: $val = $x * .2; break; case 5: $val = $x * .05; break; case 'VAT': $val = $x * .175; break; case 1.5: $val = $x * .015; break; default: $val = $x * $p; break; } return $val; } $someNumber = 5000403; $getTwenty = doPercent(20, $someNumber); $getFive = doPercent(5, $someNumber); $getVAT = doPercent("VAT", $someNumber); $getOnePointFive = doPercent(1.5, $someNumber); $getForty7 = doPercent(.47, $someNumber); ?>

It's called LoadVars......in Actionscript 3.0 http://www.devarticles.com/c/a/Flash/The-Power-of-LoadVars-Object/ in Actionscript 2.0 it is loadVariablesNum() and this is not a PHP question

no....nothing to do with the operating system. imagine this scenario you are saying $location = $_GET['location'] that's assuming that you ALWAYS have a location var in your URL....so what does that code do when you don't have location in your url... IT FAILS so you first have to check if it even exists first...which is why you got that error. undefined index.
