The Falkenman is back!

Hi,
Finally got the old forum running again! To be clear, it is just for archival purposes and it will not allow for any new post.
... But just in case some of you were missing it, it is there for you to browse.
Thanks,
Stefan

Breadcrumbs
in PHP
That would make sense.
When building these things, always keep in mind that in the end you are just grabbing text from a page or database and returning it.
... A web page after all is just a text document.
I hope that helps.

Hi,
The IE browser simply does not play according to the rules ... and the solution is to use the conditional comments.

Just in case anyone is looking, you can find the PHP shopping cart videos on www.killerphp.com.

Hi,
There are a couple of ways I am aware of:
- Zend Optimizer
- IonCube
Each has their advantages and disadvantages.
You may find your server has Zend Optimizer installed already; you can find out by using the phpinfo() function:
I hope that helps.

Hi,
That is great news!! I'm happy to hear it!
With fast improvements like that, you'll should be up in action in no time. I once had a chronic illness, and it took a full 9 months before I felt the positive effects of treatment. These many years later, I'm in tiptop shape ... compared to what I used to be!
Just keep doing what you are doing, eat well and try to relax and things should continue to turn around.
Best wishes and we hope to see you back again regularly.

Hi,
Once and a while I mention things that fall outside the realms of web design and web programming; I only do so when I feel it is something important to point out.
The Giant Housing Scam
This time around, it is the giant fraud put forth by the US financial players ... this whole housing bubble was a giant ponzi scheme and a new giant ponzi scheme is being engineered now. Check out this Rolling Stone article - it sums up what happened and what is gearing up to happen over the next several years.

Though Americans are going to get the biggest shaft (as they are now,) the rest of the world will feel the pain of the scam as well .. as we are all now.

Another option is to use PHP and to do this on the server. It pretty much works in the same way except you will have to pass the zip code selected to PHP via either:
- get/post request
- ajax transaction.
You can learn a little about Ajax here:
Stefan
-
You can do this with Javascript and DOM scripting. You would have to load your collection of zip codes into say a Javascript associative array, where you would pair up your zip codes to images.
Once a zip code is selected, you could loop through your array and then use the DOM to set display the image.
Hint: Look at 'innerHTML'.
Try it with a simple array first and then expand from there.

Hi,

Let me know,

You cannot rename a CD once it has a name - it is literally burned in.

Just create a copy onto a new CD and give it whatever name you like.

daddyalfie,
I'm happy to hear the forum is helpful to you. So, have you noticed a speed difference?
Stefan

I'm happy to hear it.
The server change was something waiting to happen for a while ...

Hi,
I transferred killersites.com to our dedicated server because our old host was dropping the ball ... they're puny girly-boy server couldn't handle the load.
Anyway, do you guys notice the site/forum being a little faster?
Thanks,
Stefan

IE will be around for probably years to come.
That said, IE supported embedded fonts years ago.

It is all over the Web - Jackson has died.
I got it on Google news.
Stefan
-
Farrah Fawcett Dies
AND
Michael Jackson Dies
No joke. The biggest icons of the 70's and 80's die on the same day.
This is a very strange day.
Stefan
-
That scenario is something that would be extremely rare ... very, very rare.
... I would not be too concerned.

Have you done my basic PHP tutorials?
Stefan

You could also do this easily enough with Wordpress. It has plug-ins for shopping carts and lots of themes to choose from.
I have a small Wordpress section with some videos:

Hi,
Do you have a hard time with these videos:
http://www.killersites.com/dreamweaver/dreamweaver-cs4-videos.php
http://www.killersites.com/blog/2009/can-dreamweaver-edit-golive-files/
.. The above are new louder videos.
-
And yes, I have been looking at options to have my videos subtitled.

Hi,
Just upload an mp3 file of the sermon and then link to it on your web page. When a user clicks on the mp3, their default media player will pop open and play the mp3 once it is downloaded. This will all be automatic.
On Windows, that would probably be Windows Media Player and on Mac, Itunes.
Hope that helps,
Stefan

Hi,
You have two options I can think of:
1. Use an sql view.
2. Use a PHP transaction.
I know you know what views are so I won't go into them here. Transactions allow you to fire off multiple sql statements one after another, where if one should fail, all the sql statements are canceled. This way, you could update many tables at the same time and insure that the database doesn't get corrupted if something happened half way through.
You can find the right syntax for php transactions if you do a search for it.

Old Forum vs. New Forum
in Open Forum
Posted
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?
:/
