  • Erm, assuming that you have a working member script, you could do something like: [php] if(!isset($_COOKIE["myusercookie"])){ echo "My login form goes here"; }else{ $query = "SELECT * FROM users WHERE `userident` = \"&q…
  • No, you cannot do this with raster images. You can do this relatively easily with vector images because they aren't done in the same way as rasters. A raster image is a grid of pixels which have a set place and colour while a vector is drawn using m…
  • I'm sorry for not having telescopic vision, but are you supposed to read that?? I had to set Opera to 150% zoom to read the text on there, which sucks. It's also worth considering using the sext size keywords xx-small, x-small, small, medium, large,…
  • Well done Python for having a community of this type which isn't backed by some big network like OSTG (Open Source Technology Group, they own Sourceforge.net, Freshmeat and thinkgeek) or About.com (whatever.about.com info sites). A lot of the commun…
  • I'd have thought that such an editor would be fairly easy to build, even with Visual BASIC (yes, I know Microsoft doesn't use the full caps, but the language family is called BASIC). I actually have a decent amount of building such things with Delph…
  • I much prefer your site to some web design service sites which are overdone and often come out looking too busy. The colour usage is great, it's not dull and it's not too in your face. I can't fault the code as it's 100% valid XHTML 1.0 transitional…

  • It's hardly supprising since many people hate using Explorer and those who aren't overly techy might think that because Firefox is open source, it might need some knowlage of stuff like compiling or whatever. I used Mozilla suite before Firefox, the…
  • Yeah, that's pretty much it. That's the only real way to do it if you're hashing passwords with md5()...
  • You can't send headers more than once. You can get around this using PHP's output buffering features (it stores all the output till you tell it to send it to the end user or you could try fixing the problem with multiple headers.
  • Oops... that should say $unhashed :/ That's what happens when you're coding something in another language while posting PHP :P
  • Lets say you already have the new password generated (because I suck at PHP random generation) and it's password (imagination == 0), you'd do something like: <?php $unhashed = $password; $hashed = md5($unhashed); $mailstring = "This mai…
  • Basically, what you do is generate a random string of letters and numbers or even just a word (less secure) and then use md5() on it, but keep a copy of it unhashed. Then you pudate your database so that the password is the hashed version of the str…
  • With MD5, it's not easily possible to decrypt data since it's hashed rather than being encrypted in the same way that other encryption systems do it. In order to have forgotten password script, you'd need to have a script which could change the pass…
  • Visual BASIC uses variables in the same way as PHP in that it autmatically creates them as variant type variables, meaning they'll hold anything. Most decent languages support variant type variables, but it's sometimes better to use typed variables …
  • Sorta works... The problem with it though is that it requires all the fields to be filled or it generates pretty poor code. If you don't fill in a field, it still generates a CSS attribute for it, but without a value. For example, I tried generating…
  • Some people found that their nano's were scratched or had cracked screens. Apple has said they'll replace these faulty units with new ones.

  • I don't know really. If you used pixel widths, you'd be really stuck since you'd have to know what resolution the user had in order to tell how many pixels in width theier system was set to. If you were using fluid design (a design that can stretch …
  • Oh... I think I see what you're trying to do now :/ If you want to center a site, you should use position: absolute; since position: relative; only positions things relative to their origional place within the document. For example, if you had a sit…
  • Internet Explorer has very poor support for W3C standards and it often means that you need to use some simple hacks to get around things. If you're using floated divs instead of tables, you might find that it does look a bit iffy in IE but it'll be …
  • $7.77mo = 5,000MB of space & 300GB monthly bandwidth, 99.999% uptime, PHP4 & 5, 5 mySQL DB's, perl5, Frontpage extensions, 650 pop3 mail accounts and a free domain for a year if you pay yearly... $30 setup fee for monthly payment or free set…
  • In Opera, the ad rotates fine, but rather than showing something like: We steal your credit card details description I like bread Description It shows: I like bread Description I like bread Description If you get what I mean :/
  • Buy one of these: http://www.holylemon.com/iPodFlea.html

  • Looks decent enough. The code is pretty poor IMHO (using tag attributes which shouldn't be used rather than CSS). For some reason, the Targetfirst ad only shows one link and it just uses that over and over rather than showing a few links at a time l…
  • I am proficient in the use of HTML 4.01, XHTML 1.0 & CSS2. I know enough PHP and SQL (mySQL and SQLite) to get by and I have a fair idea of what I'm doing when it comes to Delphi (Object Pascal). I don't know a lot of python, even though I did i…
  • (Quote) Probably, yes...
  • I'm waiting for Google's online payment system... No, I'm not just saying that because google releases their own version of everything eventually, they are actually making one apparently, though wether or not it'll be designed to compete with existi…
  • Ipod nano's are virtually indestructable. A site actually tested it to see how hard it would be to break (to the point of the music not playing) and it still played after they had dropped it multiple times from different speeds and hights and they e…

  • A site dedicated to the power of CSS. It shows off an easily implemented, yet extremely powerful skin system which changes the entire layout of the site, not just the basic stuff tables limit you to. http://www.csszengarden.com/ is the address and s…
  • Don't remember... Computers have been in my family since the 70s so I grew up with them...
  • If you're using a directory structure so news/post would show the same as news.php?post=1, you need to remember that Apache will look for files in the /news/ directory when working with relative links. Since /news/ doesn't actually exist, it won't f…
