You do not need all of those PHP start and end tags.

You only need one at the beginning of the PHP code and one at the end. Any blank line in between a close and start tag is being sent to the...

The best way to really learn osCommerce is to download the code and set up an osCommerce test site. You don't have to sell anything, but you do need to learn to work with the code.

humbug's code is correct.

The only reason that IE appeared to be displaying the table correctly is because the table code was invalid and the closing table tag was not being recognized. Each...

You need server root access in order to manually modify the httpd.conf file. Very few hosting companies will give a site owner root access. Using cPanel to add a subdomain does the same thing.

The purpose for cleanQuery is to protect your data from malicious SQL injection attacks. Those attacks only occur when querying a database. The point is that cleanQuery doesn't strip any...

Try taking the links out of the Flash presentation. The hyperlinks need to be visible in the HTML code.

I think you misunderstand what that function does and how it should be used. The function you are using does not clean out any SQL code. It merely escapes (with a backslash) characters...

If you just want to prevent page elements such as buttons from displaying on printed output, the easiest way to do that is by using external stylesheets. You can use a different stylesheet to format...

I stared out using ASP in the 1990s and then migrated to PHP. I also investigated Cold Fusion and JSP.

PHP is server-side code. It runs on the server and is executed before a script is sent to the user.

JavaScript is typically used as client-side code. It runs in a user's browser and is executed...

I have to agree with nav33n. That would not cause the problem.

You need to isolate the problem. At this point, you don't know if the GET variable is not picking up the value or if the value is not being inserted into thte table.

If your host allows you to modify the .htaccess file, you can add the following line of code to turn safe mode off.

You are trying to insert an id value of ' ' when you have that column set up as auto_increment. Don't insert an id value. Let MySQL set the id value.

Try this:

You can also turn on the error message. It does a good job of pinpointing most errors. Place it at the top of your script, just after the first opening PHP tag '<?php'

I strongly advise you to NOT use Word as a tool to create web pages. The Microsoft HTML conversion utility generates horrible code.

Have you tried using SELECT DISTINCT?

That's a good routine to use if your server is set up to use it properly.

You use dots to concatinate string values in PHP. The dots do not appear in the final value.

Try using different values for your select options. It makes it much easier to assemble a date in the proper format, which is yyyy-mm-dd.

Simple PHP should do it if you do not know regular expressions.


$string = "abcd123xyz";

if((substr($string,0,3)=="abc") && (substr($string,-3)=="xyz"))
{
$string = "this is a test";
}

Why don't you list what you think are the advantages with using classes? Most people do not see any advantages, especially for relatively small web sites.

Spreadsheets are for tabular data. How do you plan to break a web page up into cells? Are you talking about data that you are displaying on a PHP page?

I assume that when you say that your server does not allow scripts, you mean that you can only run static HTML pages.

If you cannot run any type of scripts, you probably cannot use a captcha...
