I have a plug-in for a payment gateway for a WordPress installation with a WooCommerce shopping plug-in. The payment gateway plug-in fails at the checkout. The error message may be a distraction at this point as I only want some more general advice. The error is suggesting some problem with …

Hello, I am getting a bit confused regarding apostrophes in my SQL statement. I can get it to work but I would like to understand why it works when it does or, conversely, why it doesn't work when it doesn't. If you know what I mean. Anyway - here goes: …

Hi Everybody, I hope someone can help with this, it's taken so long to get this close but I just can't figure out the last small (but show stopping) detail. I start with a string of text and a font-face entered/selected via a form. I am using imagettfbbox to determine …

I believe that it should look something like this: $my_conn = new mysqli('localhost', 'user name', 'password', 'database name'); $sql = "SELECT * FROM messages"; $result = $my_conn->query($sql); while ($obj = $result->fetch_object()) { echo = $obj->message; } I could easily be wrong though ... hope this helps, Simon.

`AuthUserFile "/home/machiner/.htpasswds/public_html/passwd` looks a bit iffy to me (I could be wrong, very easily!). Should it be`AuthUserFile "/home/machiner/public_html/passwd/.htpasswds` perhaps?

Try this, it processes everything before updating the database: <?php // Set your variables to empty if they haven't been submitted: if (isset($_POST['First_Name'])) { $First_Name = $_POST['First_Name']; } else { $First_Name = ''; } if (isset($_POST['Last_Name'])) { $Last_Name = $_POST['Last_Name']; } else { $Last_Name = ''; } if (isset($_POST['Email'])) { …

You have got a mail server running haven't you? I use IIS/PHP on Windows and I run Mercury Mail Server (because the IIS mail server is a bit of a mystery to me) to handle the email. I'm guessing that Apache/PHP on windows will also need a mail server. Also, …

Hi All, I have inherited a web site which is really a bit beyond me ... there's no option though, I've got to figure it out, so ... The whole site uses Apache/Python/Django/Satchmo. I want to set up a sub-domain which uses a simple Apache/PHP set up. I'm guessing that …

Stick the PHP code right at the top of the page (just to keep things neat and tidy really) above the HTML stuff. Create an empty variable, say $output_result before your existing code. Now, surround your code (not the empty variable) with an if statement. The if statement should test …

How do you know whether a user is an admin or a regular member? If it is a database field then simply display that as well.
