  1. I can only seem to get the 'copy' function to work properly if i have the CHMOD on the folder set too 777. I thought it would work with 775? Is this a security issue? Basically ive got a folder that i'm constantly going to be moving files in and out of - its like a store.

I cant figure out how to find the file extension? The only function i have found is filetype() but it returns directory/files etc. rather than the extension. is the only way to do it by examining the name and putting out the extension? Not quite sure how to do that either... thanks for the help [/quote] got it ! :) [a href=\"http://uk.php.net/pathinfo\" target=\"_blank\"]http://uk.php.net/pathinfo[/a]

So when u say id that would be eventid for me, as that is my primary key field. So that simple query, will keep updating new events that are added to my database? thanks! Amy! [/quote] SELECT * FROM events ORDER BY Date DESC LIMIT 0, 10 will give you the most recent 10 assuming you have a date field with the date of when its posted. LIMIT works like this : LIMIT starting number, count ie. LIMIT 0, 10 - starts at 0 gives you 10 - records 0 - 9 LIMIT 4, 5 - Starts at result 4 and gives you 4 - records 4 - 9

  5. also realised that; (x-1, y+1) only needs start from the elements on the left and top (x+1, y+1) only needs to start on the elements on the left and bottom. just coding it now, fingers crossed

Thanks, i'm just going to give it a shot now - i'll let you know how i get on.

I think i can see how that would works, since i know the upper and lower limits i think i should be able to get some sort of loop to go through all that. The only thing is it will probably end up checking all the diagonals multiple times but i could put it in my documentation that its doing that just to be sure! hehe :) hmm, guess i could try and work it out to see what the minimum number of elements i would need to check for it. Thanks! I'm gonna give this a shot tonight.

[/quote] all directions. basically, items need to be placed into the matrix... however no more than two can be in any diagonal line same with horizontal and vertical. ie. this example has a diagonal with 3 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 *EDIT* i realise that example is quite hard to see, but you should get the idea :)
  9. Cool! thats really good! thanks However, am i right in thinking thats the diagonals from the opposite corners. I also need to check the other diagonals in the array - they are whats getting me stuck the most! Any further suggestions? thats a cool start! thanks Dougal
  10. [!--fonto:Verdana--][span style=\"font-family:Verdana\"][!--/fonto--] Hi, [b]First[/b] post! :) I am having a problem with my PHP. I am trying to make a [b]8x8[/b] grid, with boolean values that i can then check and count how many true values are in each column, row and diagonal. At the moment i have managed to get the grid/matrix successfully and also i have managed to check the rows and columns. So thats all cool. However i am having trouble working out the best way to check the diagonals. I have noticed that there is a bit of a patern with them, for example some of them as you follow it through either the x or the y value is going down and the other is going up. I just dont know how best to put this into code. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks Dougal[!--fontc--][/span][!--/fontc--]
