10x

 

Dose it work or not ?

Cheers !

<option value="Toata Luna" selected>Toata Luna</option>

 

Thats invalid code these days. It will work, but it should be

 

<option value="Toata Luna" selected="selected">Toata Luna</option>

[alin19]

it works just fine,

 

i would have wished that  value of ziua to be: "Toata Luna" but i've solvet it with this:

 

 

$_POST['ziua']='Toata Luna'

[haku]

it works just fine

 

I said it would. That doesn't change the fact that its invalid code.

 

 

[pdkv2]

<option value="Toata Luna" selected>Toata Luna</option>

 

Thats invalid code these days. It will work, but it should be

 

<option value="Toata Luna" selected="selected">Toata Luna</option>

 

 

Thanks haku for the correction !

[haku]

No worries 

 

I'm one of those anal retentive folk when it comes to valid XHTML. I have to suck it up a lot on this forum though, a lot of the code posted in here is ridiculously invalid.

 

But this one was a short easy one to comment on.

[alin19]

10x, i have modified that, but i don't see any difference  ???

[haku]

You wont see the difference. But it makes (that part of) your code valid.

 

What is '10x'? Some new lingo back in the western countries that I'm too old and too far away from to know about?

[kenrbnsn]

"10x" is short for "thanks".

[haku]

No kidding.

 

Interestingly enough, here in Japan its 3-9. Three is 'san', nine is 'kyuu', which is san-kyuu, which is the Japanese pronunciation of thank you (no 'th' sound in Japanese).
