I'm not sure what you mean by sample practice programs?
... Are you looking for free PHP text editors? If so, I would try Netbeans.

I have no news of a specific discount. I'm thinking since business seems to be sucking for them lately, they might be more open to providing a discount.
Apple for instance, just dropped the price on Final Cut Studio by a few hundred.

I think the upgrade path is cheaper than it used to be. Microsoft is taking it on the chin these past two years and they just reported bad numbers.
... Expect a nice discount.
The upgrade should be easy enough .. just pop in the DVD.

I will be loading this up on another partition (dual boot) to test it myself. If I don't like what I see I can always boot up to my XP.
Good idea.
I use VMWare Workstation on my XP box to run software test and surf the Web. Using a virtual machine is like having a dual boot, since the virtual machine is totally isolated from the parent OS.
I also use Mac for my day-to-day work because it is just so much more stable.

I tried Vista when it came out ... and I ran the other way.

Hi,
I am hearing a lot of good stuff about Windows 7 from a few nerd friends of mine:
- it is much faster.
- loads and shuts down faster.
- lighter than XP in terms of the install.
- gets rid of all the stupid Vista security problems.
Has anyone here used Windows 7 yet?

Hi,
Check out this line of code:
VALUES ('7', 'Africa', 'zebra'))";
... Try not setting a value for your ID field. I seem to remember ... that it was set to be auto incremented and was of data type INT:
CREATE TABLE `symbols` (
`id` int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment,
As you know, '7' means you are sending MySQL a string when it wants to insert an INT.
Let me know

Good ideas.

I get a lot of hits on my website from the old forum. Way more than this new one.
So do I!

So I have to old forum up and running with the latest version of the old forum's software
.. You old timers may find it interesting to check it out.
Funny thing about the old forum is that it still gets a lot more traffic than the new one - it has been up for many years. In fact, we still have people joining the old forum ... even today!
I will be using the old forum as more of an announce board and I will try to make people visiting our old place aware of our new home.

i would look to learning jQuery which is a Javascript library that makes special affects in Javascript easy.
I am about to release a jQuery tutorial - within the next few days. Meanwhile you can start by learning basic Javascript.

Hi,
Try this:
onClick="window.open('','page','toolbar=0,scrollbars=1,location=0,statusbar=0,menubar=0,resizable=0,width=350,height=410,left=150,top=150,titlebar=yes')"
-
All that error message is saying that it can't find the file you are trying to include.
.. Check your paths.
Hope that helps,
Stefan

Sorry guy. I haven't gone deep into jQuery and keyboard/keystroke trapping.
Stefan
-
A good bet would be to look at JQuery ... this is a Javascript library that makes doing this kind of stuff much easier.
I will have jQuery video tutorials on killerjavascript.com very soon.

Hi,
Basically you want a simple cart that tracks the users selections and then have that list of selected items printed to the page in a printable format. You can create the printable page easily with some simple CSS.
I am not one to plug my tutorials often, but our shopping cart tutorial will teach you how to do that.
I hope that helps,
Stefan

How you do this depends on how often the information is updated and how many shipments you have to track. So for example, if you had to do an update on a few shipments say twice a day, it may make sense to just have a web page where you would manually enter the data.
But, if you need to keep tracking information private and you have more than a handful of shipments to track, then you will need to create a tracking system where people can log in to view their data.
Needless to say, this thing can get complex depending on your needs. You may want to search for shipping tracking software on Google or Bing. You might find a shrink wrapped solution that can do the job.
If you want to learn about HOW this kinda of interactive website is built, you want to check out killerphp.com.
This particular article may help as well: database driven websites.

Hmm ... another thing on the list to look at.

Hi,
That would be done through an active campaign to promote the 'Hilton Hotel' key-phrase ... along with some site tweaking.

Hi,
You can get an overview of what to consider when it comes to hosting in the web hosting guide page.
Full disclosure: we do offer hosting here as well.

What is your budget?
One option is to get the previous version ... it has a lot of the same capability and you should be able to get it for a lot less ... try ebay.
Other than that, for the control that you specified I can't think of anything cheaper. You may try Microsoft Silverlight ... it is a Flash competitor. I just don't know too much about the specific capabilities though.

I am not sure what your purpose is?

Hi,
That's easy, use the Flash format and play just about any video format.
With the Flash 10 player and up, a Flash movie/video player can read and play back multiple video formats including:
- FLV
- h.264
- Quicktime
... and others.
The preferred video format is h.264.
Using Flash as the player will allow you to remotely control (from the server) the playback of the video. You can do just about anything, for example: you could at a particular time index in the video, have the Flash player fire off a request to a database and then display that information on screen while the video is still playing. Or you could tell Flash to pause the video and load a new page.
... Etc.
Powerful stuff.

For all you old time members ... people who remember the old killersites forum, I was wondering how you felt about this new forum after having driven around in it for a few months .. what do you think?
.. Do you guys still prefer the new forum? Or do you miss something in the old?
:/

The Falkenman is back!
flash (or other) navi and frame
in Beginners Web Design
Posted
You can use Flash for your navigation to as you say, add eye candy.
But I will spend more time on a simply layout that emphasizes your photography.
