I'm sorry, but that's just plain false. It is possible to access other folders on a server (even below/above the root directory if they aren't protected properly). I've done it before, and I've just...

Thanks Shawn,

Got it working :)

Hi there,

I'm busy trying to build an interface where users can create a sort of collage with images that they upload. I know it is possible to get the position of a DHTML element relative to the...

Seen on t-shirt:
Front: Only you can prevent forest fires!

My record is 4. But you can only use multiple computers if you have multiple lengthy tasks to do, such as uploading multiple websites using ftp or doing s/w installations.

Whats Up!!!

Hi there,
In php.ini, change both "max_execution_time" and "max_input_time" to 0. This removes the limit & lets them run indefinitely. Alternatively you could set them dynamically from inside your...

I do pHp in South Africa :)

Hi there,
You could try the following function:
imagefill ( resource $image , int $x , int $y , int $color );
Where $x and $y are the top left coordinates where the filling starts, and just...

Well, not really. You need to handle the intitial request (the client clicking on the button/link) with a javascript or other client side scripting language. You can not call a php function directly...

Hi there,

The problem is that php is pre-processed, ie all of the php code is run before a page is served to the client and therefore, you cannot add interactivity to a page (like with the onXXXX...

leviathan is right, this would be easiest to do with a simple javascript function:

function disableCheckBox(checkbox1, checkbox2)

Hi there,
I think the problem might be that you never assign values from the $_POST array into your variables ($login, $passwd, etc.) Unless you do this in your include('../vars.php'). But other...

I still use Google for all of my own searches (research etc.) but when we do SEO reports for our clients, they like to see their rankings on Google, Bing and Yahoo. So we sort of have to use it from...

None that I know of. Pretty much anything that grows in less than a year, will die (and in this case turn into a brown ooze) in less than a year unless you preserve it somehow.

I agree with VernonDozier, if you are a perfectly normal and healthy individual, you aren't going to commit suicide over getting you cellphone confiscated/ scolded for taking a call. And if you do, I...

Hi there peoples,
This is a currency converter, built with a combination of javascript and php, which uses an XML feed from http://www.ecb.int/ to get up to date exchange rates. I know the xml...

Hi there,
Enclose the phrase post_text in single quotes, like this:

echo $rows['post_text'];

That should sort out your error :)

Dude, in South Africa, I share a 3 bedroom house with some people from work, rent per month is ZAR 5300 per month (for the entire house, not per person) , which is by todays exchange rate: USD...

Hi there, in order to set the action of the form in response to a user selecting something from the drop down list, you will need to use javascript, try this :

Just gave it a bash and it worked fine. There are a couple of other little errors in your code that you'll need to clean up though.
Good Luck :)

Hi there,
I'm not too experienced with the gd libraries so forgive me if i'm wrong, but I think the problem is that the libraries can not spawn a picture out of nothing (unlike the php functions for...

No prob job :)

Well, the way your code is structured (in the first snippet), if $_POST['submit'] == 'Login', the user will always be redirected to myaccount.php, if you only want that to happen if the login fails,...

Hi there,
The problem is where you are checking your $result against the $md5Pass, what you are doing is running the query and storing the result set in $result, but we aren't done yet, that $result...

Hi there, you could use a regular for loop like this:

$max = ceil(count($Forms,$sharedForms);

Heres the breakdown:
You have a number of "SUPER GLOBALS" in php which are superglobals because they can be accessed from anywhere in the scope of your script. The 3 i'm gonna...

The only way you can do that is with computations, rest easy though, the computer takes care of the actual math for you:

Dude, do you regularly browse the internet with no other cause except to find something interesting? Much Respect.

Hi there, I'm not sure if what you're asking for is possible. The way I understand it to work is if you take a page (index.html) and reload it, it also reloads all of it's child elements including...

Yes (Only a single strip down it's side ... so not really)

Can you juggle?

If thats a vegetarian version of Marmite, then I can think of few things worse... but haven't tried it.
