I think that you need to check the variables that are sent from the form module to make sure that it is actually receiving the result from the Captcha.

The situation varies by country / service provider. In North America (that I am most familiar with), the phone companies provide email addresses that you can use to send an SMS message to a phone and there is no charge to do that (for the sender). This is intended for relatively low volume so if you started to send very large volumes, you might need to use a gateway (that you pay for). Outside of North America, the ability to send for free isn't as common.

The receiver of the message will pay for the message (or not) just the same as if the message had been sent manually. If they haven't paid in advance for a certain number of SMS messages per month and pay for every one, then they will pay for yours as well. The cell phone companies (in North America at least) generally include a certain number of messages per month in the basic fee and many now provide unlimited SMS or a very high number for little or no extra money.

You need to look at the SMS costs and plans for each of the Telecomm companies that you intent to support in order to get a more specific answer.

You can use an iframe to embed another url in a page.

You can put code at the start of the module to check the access conditions that are required for that module. If the conditions aren't satisfied, then you could just terminate with a message or redirect back to the home page or somewhere else.

It will probably be easier if you paste the info into a spreadsheet, save it as a CSV file then read it into your PHP program and create your array. This may still take quite a bit of manual work if all of the info isn't in the same order / format. I don't think there is any solution for that unless you find a single source that has all of the data you need in a consistent format.

If you could try explaining your question a little better, someone may be able to help you. I cannot understand what it is you want to know.

This is a very common problem that has been raised (and solved) many times before. I suggest that you use the search capability on this site to look for similar problems that have already been solved before posting it as a new problem. In this case a search will provide you with these search results. Have a look at some of them and you'll probably be able to figure out what you did wrong.

Your objective seems about as realistic as saying: I'd like to built a violin like a Stradivarius. I don't have any experience in woodworking or making instruments. What sort of wood should I use?"

Google Earth is a pretty advanced system that uses a lot of Javascript / Ajax. Trying to build any significant system in PHP, ASP or AJAX without the appropriate knowledge and experience isn't likely to be very successful. Google Earth has an API and so does Windows Live Local so this provides an easier way to build an app that uses geo-location. Even easier (and much more likely to succeed) is to use Google Maps (as opposed to Goggle Earth) to create a customized Map with the important educational, industrial, historical sites that you want to show. This doesn't require any programming and it can be implemented quite quickly.

It could be as simple as a blank in one of the fields. I suggest that you do the two compares separately (one after the other) and see which one fails. For the one that is failing, look very carefully at the data. You might want to use PHPMyAdmin to inspect the database fields.

I, for one, have never taken a forensic computing course / degree so without knowing what the course covered, it's hard to make any suggestions. I suspect others may be in the same situation. I imagine that there is some distinction but also some overlap between computer security and forensic computing but I'm not sure where that dividing line would be. Despite your comfort with PHP, I'm not sure that it would be the best language to do anything forensic. If you want to do something that is mainly desktop oriented (including the browsers), then a web-based language like PHP doesn't have the detailed access you would probably need. Even in terms of the network, PHP has limited access to information. I am guessing that C or some other language that has access to operating system routines (e.g. DLLs) would be a lot more useful. Since this your final year project, I assume that it needs to be something substantial.

If you deserve to pass this course, then you must have some ideas as to what forensic computing is and what the key problems are that forensic accounting must deal with. The same as if you were an entrepreneur trying to create something, you need to identify a need and try to solve it. If you want help from this forum, then I think that you need to give us a quick tutorial on forensic computing and identify some needs that you could possibly address in your project.

Those who spend time helping to provide solutions deserve, but very often don't get some positive feedback. Maybe showing something as solved isn't treated by everyone as being significant but you have to take what you can get. As mentioned, many op's make a single post with their issue and are never heard from again. I think it is worth encouraging people to provide answers, otherwise this whole process doesn't work. If that encouragement has to sometimes come from the forum (through the moderators) instead of the OP, then that's ok (with the understanding that it's a bit more work for the moderators). To make it easier for the moderators, it would be good for other experienced contributors to recommend posts that deserve to be closed as "deemed as solved". Maybe there should be a separate status for ones that are forced to solved status rather than shown as solved by the op (even though they would both count in the solved count). For anyone who is looking for a solution to their current issue, finding an old post that is "deemed as solved" provides a higher level of assurance that it is a correct answer than nothing as all (i.e. dead silence).

On the flip side, I think that anyone who makes a post that is replied to but then does not provide any feedback (pro or con) within a certain period of time should automatically lose reputation points (with the rules updated appropriately). It would also be …

The query on line 71 probably didn't work. Your code doesn't have a Connect so I take it that was done previously but not shown. I suggest that you echo $busca at line 70. I find what you're doing with $posicao confusing and probably won't work the way you expected it to.

At one point many years ago, I did it for a paycheck. Since then, I've done because I enjoy creating a program and seeing it work and hopefully do something useful. I still make a few dollars off some of the stuff that I do but a lot of it is just for the enjoyment of doing something new that I haven't tried before.

For the While, you used open and closed brackets instead of open and closed braces {}.
One you fix that, you'll have an error on line 30 because you have strings without any quotes. You could put the whole string in double quotes and it will work.

It depends on what you want to accomplish. To develop new plugins, you will need to know Javascript and the options available using the JQuery module. If you just want to use existing plugins, you just download them and experiment with them.

You started off well when you said "I need to create a Page that a user can register on and also a log in page as well." The important word there is "I". You somehow got the mistaken impression that you can just put in an order for some code, sort of like going to MacDonalds and ordering a cheeseburger. You need to develop some code and then if you have a problem you can come here, post your code, identify what is going wrong and ask for some help. If you take the time to do a search you'll find some example code out there that can get you started. One example is here.

Perhaps you should put a closing brace before the Else. Not sure why you have two closing braces after the "else echo..." and no opening brace after the Else.

I don't see how that will help since it is intended to convert Tiff to JPG/GIF not PDF to JPG/GIF.

As stated previously, almost anything can be hacked given enough time and incentive. If your cost is high then you are providing that incentive.

Another approach would be to provide online access to the data through an application rather than handing over the whole thing on an SD card. Depending on your application needs you could possibly restrict queries to individual records. If there is a lot of data, it would be time consuming (but not impossible given automation) to get all the data through individual queries. If your application requirement necessitates displaying multiple records at once, then the time required (difficulty) would be reduced.

What is your point in adding to a thread that started in 2004 and hasn't had anything posted since 2009. Your post didn't add anything useful and neither did many of the sporadic posts since 2004.

So why is this unsolved? There are a number of different ways that this can be done.
The way you are proposing gives all of your admin staff the same code so this makes it less secure than other possible approaches. If you want to take this approach anyway, you could just have a second password field that would only be used by the Admin staff.

A more common and secure approach would be to have a record for each user in a file or a database and each one would have a group identifier. You could have three tiers of groups: a master id, Admin ID's and everyone else. Only the Master ID would be allowed to establish Admin ID's. Admin staff would sign in as normal but their higher level of access would be allowed based on belonging to the group. If an Admin person leaves the job, you just remove them from the group. In your suggested approach, if an Admin person leaves, you would have to change your "secret code" for all of the Admin people.

It depends on your style and how you learn. Some people seem to need the structure of a formal course and textbooks. I like to jump in and thrash around until I figure it out. I think that I bought a book for reference but mainly it was a lot of trying things, using the PHP manual/help file and doing web searches. I downloaded a lot of open-source systems so looking at how they work was helpful. I had the benefit of many years working in other languages so I already had the fundamentals, I just had to learn the language and the web environment.

I built a couple of systems that I provide as services to clients. There was a lot of on-the-job learning when I built them and I worked on them a long time before I got to release 1 (1 - 1.5 yrs in total). I'm still learning and there are things like oop for PHP that I haven't really bothered with yet (but I might get around to it one of these days). When you get into it, you also need an adequate knowledge of CSS and it is good to be comfortable with using a Javascript library like JQuery. PHP is good for the back end but if you want to build something that is user-friendly, you need some front-end tools as well. Unless you're a genius, you can't do it over night. One short-cut is to use open-source code / systems wherever …

If you don't find something better you could build your own from the info on this site.

This works but I haven't done much experimenting with how to format it. If you take a sample Powerpoint presentation and save it to a 'web page' you will see how Powerpoint itself formats things to be able to recreate the Powerpoint format. If you find a PHP library/utility that takes care of it all without too much trouble then use it. The other option is to dump it all to a text format and then format it manually in PowerPoint.

Facebook and other large applications are built with PHP and MySQL so they can handle large scale apps. Also cheaper, probably simpler and lets you run under Linux (or Windows if you really want to).

Free Tip: It can sometimes be a lot quicker to search for your problem on the web and see what solutions other people have come up with rather than post it on a forum such as this one and hope that someone will solve it for you.

It appears that you are using GoDaddy as your web host. If that is the case, then the link below should be pertinent to your situation. If not, do some further searching on the web for the message you are getting.

Happiness isn't getting what you want, it's wanting what you got.

There are others like Zend and Source Guardian but this one is at least as good as the other options. They also offer an online service which is pay-as-you-go so you don't have to buy the software up-front. The free options (and some of the commercial ones) are obfusticators and they can be broken quite easily. Ioncube, Zend and Source Guardian all produce 'byte code' which isn't quite compiled but it is an intermediate step beyond the original source code. If you are thinking of selling a PHP product, then you also have to use some sort of license software (Ioncube also has one of those). Otherwise, people can redistribute your 'byte code' version and you won't have any control over them.

The answers are more difficult than the question (obviously!). One thought to start with:

Get to know your local politicians!
Many of the problems seem to start with politics (in "local" I include MPs, Members of Congress and so forth). We don't demand enough accountability from our politicians and leave them free to do pretty much what they want. They see a lot of Corporate people lobbying them but they probably don't see a lot of average folks except at staged affairs. The % of people getting involved even just to vote is pretty low. The silent majority is truly silent. The Baby Boomers who were vocal in the 60's (not all of them but quite a few) are now pretty quiet or worse, they are now part of the problem. Subsequent generations don't seem to have much fire. Everyone seems to have become too focused on their own little world to pay attention to the big picture. I don't know if democracy can survive so much apathy.

The groups that are most vocal are those like the Tea Party in the US who have an agenda that they want to promote. They are an example of a group that isn't that big but gets a lot of press and quite a bit of influence.

As individuals, we can't change the whole political system but we can start to provide a greater presence. Imagine if every politician had at least 1 (but hopefully many more) people …

I went through a bunch of quotes about making a difference and this one seemed as good as any of them:
You must be the change you wish to see in the world.
Mahatma Ghandi.

Most of the quotes focused on the ability of an individual to make a difference. There is another quote that wasn't in the list that says something to the effect that the only way that change has ever occurred is by the efforts of an individual.

We have some intelligent people in this forum who have provided comments on this topic. I think there is general agreement that the current economic (and political) system in North America and Europe is pretty badly broken. It is easy to imagine everything getting worse and worse as the impact of the debt load in these countries really hits home. We don't see great political leadership. Instead we see political "leaders" spending us into bankruptcy.

So my question is: If we as individuals can make a difference, what kind of difference should we make and how should we go about it? It's easy to get on the gloom and doom track and that is what we naturally tend to do. If we actually want to look forward to these major issues getting addressed and resolved, how can we be that change?

There are free hosting services such as http://www.freehosting.com/ I haven't used them so I don't know if they are any good but if you just want to try your site on a server, they are probably good enough.

It may seem obvious but have you verified that you actually have data for those other fields. I suggest that you dump all of the values before the print just to be sure.

Have you installed a LAMP environment for testing (Linux, Apache, MySQL and PHP)? If not see this. If you did, was it started?

Sometimes it isn't the code per se. It can be because there are blanks or special characters or capitals in one of the strings . The code is simple in the extreme so it isn't very likely that anything is wrong with the compare itself.

And for me as well since I added Daniweb to the Ad Blocker whitelist.

I don't know of any one place that has a list of the issues associated with IE and it's differences from all the other browsers. If you follow the link below you will get a bunch of references for different IE problems (and probably some solutions).

There is some sort of resolution for everything you just have to look hard enough until you find it.

It depends on how you have defined margins and that sort of thing. You probably can't get much of an answer unless you post some code / css or provide a link to the page.

You can find stuff on the internet if you do a search on keywords like Software Quality Assurance. The link below is for one that I found with quick search. It may be a good intro for you.

It's time for you to pause and calmly sort things out a bit before jumping into something else. It seems that you have a passion for music and you don't necessarily have a clear passion for anything else. Just doing something to make money without having much real interest in it means that you'll be spending 40 hours a week wishing you were playing music or doing something else and you'll probably never be really good at it. I understand the attraction that music has because I played in bands over the years and liked that better than most other things that I did. I was never under any illusions about making a living from it (and you may not be either at this point) and I really did like programming so that gave me a path that worked out pretty well.

Most Universities have guidance departments and there might be some benefit to going through one or more of the standard aptitude tests to get an inventory of what you like and don't like. If, for example, you have a problem with "A job sitting in a cubicle all day" whether its programming or something else, then you might need something more active. That would put a lot of office jobs much lower on your list. You can probably get a book or find internet resources that would help you to do an assessment on your own.

There are certainly other computer-related jobs that don't involve programming …

I can't know what your connect string is supposed to look like or if your database is set up correctly. I am suspicious that your string 'Myname'@'10.1.1.34' should really have your user name not 'Myname' but maybe it's ok, I don't know. The people on the forum for that web host would have much more specific info than you will get here.

000webhost has an FAQ and a Forum where you can look up previous questions and answers or post a new one. That's what you should be using to get an answer to your questions.

if you just want to use the system, you should be able to do that through the Admin Panel or by using the SDK. If you are trying to figure out how to change the internals of the system, then you need to find a forum where people discuss that sort of stuff. There aren't any forums listed on the Social Engine website but if you do a search there are some forums listed that might be useful.
