Here's an example. I published THIS to a form: A Chinese character, also known as a Han character (汉字 / 漢字; Hànzì), is a logogram used in writing Chinese (hanzi), Japanese (kanji), less frequently Korean (hanja), and formerly Vietnamese (hán tự), and other languages. and this is what i'm seeing in MySQL: A Chinese character, also known as a Han character (汉字 / 漢字; Hànzì), is a logogram used in writing Chinese (hanzi), Japanese (kanji), less frequ... and that's exactly how it's reading when returned from the database. Any help, appreciated.

hmm.. is bumping ok?

I have a facebook application that i'd like to extend to unicode. Does anybody have any suggestions on best practices for the form/recording/recalling to give all those other characters a fighting chance? Thanks.

I'd love to do a dissolve IN and dissolve OUT slideshow. It would be TEXT only and (ideally pull from XML, but not entirely necessary). I could set the style of the text (globally is fine), including placement, color, font, size, margins, etc... the same as any other div, actually, either by placing the properties in the XML beside each item, or in the div where the slideshow is to be embedded. I know you can do some pretty cool stuff with scriptaculous, mooflow, jquery, etc. Anybody have a recommendation of where i can find a tool to do this? Thanks

Why not use Flash? I can't access that link you provided. Yes, _root is the root.

I'm using the file.upload feature of AS3 to show upload progress and it seems i'm creating a server side process that just grows and grows in memory demand. Uploading a 110MB file draws close to 720MB of memory at the time that i canceled the upload. Any suggestions? I've removed LOADS of peripheral functionality from this to simplify. But this is the meat+potatoes of the actionscript that's doing the upload (and spiking server memory): _root.onEnterFrame = function() { if (this.getBytesLoaded()/this.getBytesTotal()>0.99) { _root.onEnterFrame = function() { //trace ("onEnterFrame called"); }; } }; var m:MovieClip = this; var a:Boolean = false; import flash.net.FileReference; var selected_file = undefined; var filetype = undefined; //used later in case typing fails* var file_monitor = new Object(); setSelected = function (file) { selected_file = file; file_name.text = file.name; }; file_monitor.onSelect = function(file) { >>> buncha tests here removed } else if (file.name) { setSelected(file); } else { alert("Please select a file to upload."); } }; file_monitor.onOpen = function(file) { progress_bar.setStatus("Uploading..."); time_started = getTimer(); }; file_monitor.onProgress = function(file, bytesLoaded, bytesTotal) { progress_bar.setProgress(bytesLoaded,bytesTotal,getTimer()-time_started); }; var file = new flash.net.FileReference(); file.addListener(file_monitor); upload_btn.onRelease = function() { upload_file("upload.php?custom_flags=values"); }; upload_file = function (dst) { file.upload(dst); }; thanks for any suggestions/theories

I could also buy and read every book to compare frameworks.

woo that extjs looks like a huge timesaver. which is your preferred php framework? thanks.

That's like saying "no sense learning HTML if you have dreamweaver".. Not sure i can get behind that argument, Mchl. I'm not saying i'm disputing it, but please provide a bit more compelling and supported response if you're going to register an opinion.

Hi All, I'm a self-taught PHP coder. I never really saw the purpose of a framework since writing OO PHP makes sense without one. Can somebody please provide the simplest argument in support of frameworks as well as which individual framework they believe has the highest potential for longevity and popularity? Thanks

Well this is pretty simple and exactly what i need. I'm curious whether i can put image links in there or form elements and have it remain open. Thanks for the help, Nightslyr.. i'm going to mark this one solved. I appreciate your contribution, bigtime.

a long while agao, ive tried putting a: #quicklinks { visibility:hidden; } #quicklinks:hover { visibility: visible; } to no avail I'm wondering how this is commonly done.

I have a div that appears when a link is clicked: (<a href='javascript:void(0);' onclick='javascript:document.getElementById("quicklinks").style.display="block"; return false;'>Quicklinks</a>) the div is basically a box of links with different hover states. <div> <img /> <a></a> <a><img /></a> <a></a> </div> it looks nice as you roll over them because the links or images change color and src. i'd like to hide this div when the visitor completely rolls out of the div. i've tried to put a "this.style.display='none';' on rollout, but rolling over links or images acts as a rollout. any suggestions on how this can be accomplished easily?

Thanks KEN!
