Here is a tiny bit of PHP that will better demonstrate the logic. Instead of a link, I used a textbox in a form so you could actually change the ID to see that the code works. Create a page named...

All, I just wanted to pop in here to say first, thanks for the thanks and glad I could help. Second, those very specific steps I provided were back in 2005, as indicated in the post. Some things are...

This is not the correct forum, but I don't see what the correct forum would be. Your issue would be a webserver-specific question--not a programming issue. HOWEVER, you could use PHP to redirect...

Building a stateful web application is possible, but not feasible for most application scenarios. As for why a person may want such a thing? LOTS of reasons. An obvious example is a browser-based...

I'm sure there are some more commercial products with wizard-type interfaces to help you, but I don't know what they are. I do know that if you are geeky enough, you could build a script that...

The code is designed for PHP programmers to integrate into their apps. So if you are not very familiar with PHP programming, it will probably be difficult to understand my class. However, over the...

Btw, I've started working with Python. I'm very impressed so far. Python is a mature, robust, efficient language somewhere between PHP and C. Python is a fantastic scripting language for shell tasks....

This is a simple to use, self-contained website slideshow utility. Do you have a monitor or TV setup in your lobby where you'd like to present web content automatically? With this HTML/Javascript...

I'm sure the code is good, but I recommend the use of the popular ADOdb class library for database access. It is fast and robust and allows you to use the same code to connect to multiple databases...

Useful, clean, and simple. I like it.

This is a PHP script that allows javascript clients to request content they otherwise would not be able to. With the popularity of AJAX (using the XmlHttpRequest object in the browser), many...

That is not an error message, that is simply PHP code being dumped as output. That is what you'll get when you request a PHP-coded file from a webserver that is not configured to process PHP or a...

Thanks, DanceInstructor. That looks like an excellent reference. Brims, note that by quickly scrolling through the article, there are easily over 1,000 lines of code to create the system.

Although you can store large binary data blobs (such as MP3s) in a database, I recommend you store the media files as normal files in the filesystem. Use the database to store meta data--that is data...

Don't fool yourself into thinking that you are going to find tidy pre-packaged scripts that fit nicely into your application.

From what you've described, you want to develop a custom online music...

Thanks, Christian. I appreciate your review. My web servers are still FC2. I only use Linux for serving, so I don't install any of the GUI tools. Each new release, though, gets me closer to...

You must wrap string literals within single quotes. You also have some extraneous parenthesis in your query. Try this:

I'm a nice guy, but I got to say, RTFM. The code examples in the PHP documentation are VERY good. It is unlikely that anyone here is going to explain it more simply than the PHP documentation.

bwest, my guess--and of course I could be wrong--is that this is a school assignment. The nature of the task and the requirements seem to indicate as much. If this is the case, he/she may be...

What is your question? Please state a specific PHP-related question.

I don't know that I'd say using a server-side scripting language is the "best" way. You can certainly build a good solution that way. I provide a PHP example for password-protecting pages in my...

Yes, you can script a solution. The question then is, what programming languages are you comfortable with? If you are not a programmer, then you need to find one.

You can use ODBC drivers to...

MySQL does not have a direct function to produce this, but you may find the RAND() function helpful. Find RAND() on this page:

To handle the content switching, I recommend you look into AJAX. This means using the javascript XmlHttpRequest object. There are a few popular AJAX function libraries out there to make it easier. I...

Password protection can be tackled a lot of different ways and they depend on:

Which webserver (IIS? Apache?)

You are creating both the dir and the file with permissions 755. This means that the owner ('nobody' in this case) can execute, write, & read. Everybody else can execute and read, but not write.

What version did you download exactly? I'll check it out. In any case, the conf files have always ended in the ".conf" extension. These conf files traditionally live in a "conf" dir under the Apache...

I think you'll find my WAMP HOWTO (http://www.troywolf.com/articles/wamp_howto.htm) answers most of those questions. It is complete with PHP code examples to connect to your database.
