So there was a post was there? Didn't see it but I'm not surprised. You get what you pay for. Yeah I moved to greener pastures, but for reasons other than somebody's rant. I just checked in to pick up on the game, may as well get this much done. Ichwar I'll send you a new link in a day or two

if you're not one of us, you have no idea what you're talking about. uh huh. if you don't like it, lump it. Kind of makes me wonder why x10 bothers with free hosting in the first place. It's a marketing ploy of course. Anyways, good luck, I'm sure you're trying.

zen-r, are you staff? I've noticed you seem quite involved, your efforts have not gone unnoticed. They are appreciated. But It sounds now like you are doing this out of the goodness of your heart. I must say I'm not sure who is getting paid and who isn't around here. And that doesn't make me...

hmmm I see a lot of blame being passed on to the consumer here, regarding frivolous tickets and excess resource usage, not to mention "failure to log in daily and browse the news forum to see what kind of information has been posted about service outages. I've seen some of these announcements...

First point. Are you saying that you actually believe that the earth is about 6,000 years old? Does that include the sun and the moon and the stars as well? We could debate that if you want, but first let's clarify that you actually believe it's all just 6,000 years old. Then maybe make some...

I predict it'll be a dubious implementation that causes the next outage.

:) ok then it would seem to follow that php is somewhat different than other languages, at least the ones I am familiar with, in the way that it treats string literals and string variables. I appreciate the time taken. I think I need to take two steps back an go back to school on my php...

That may or may not be true, but I doesn't really answer the question. Within the double quotes is a mySQL statement. within that mySQL statement is the sequence VALUES('Tom', 'Jones') within the single quotes is text data. now, if I were to replace Tom and Jones with $first and $last...

ok gomarc, when I can I'll put all this stuff through the paces, and see how it all shakes out. It's still not clear to me how.... mysql_query( "INSERT INTO users VALUES ( 'Smith', 'xyz', 'smith@aol.com')" ); will insert the stuff as text data, but your suggestion below will insert the...

heh heh, dollars to donuts says Microsoft already has half an eye on this thread.

Well yeah, I was implying something like that, and that's what I'd like to see, but that kind of begs the question doesn't it? Anyways, if Microsoft was really interested in toeing the line, then they wouldn't have found themselves embroiled in all that antitrust stuff a few years back...

ok goMarc I'll try, but... Based on the following reference, how would mySQL know that what is within the single quotes is variable names, and not just text data? http://www.w3schools.com/php/php_mysql_insert.asp p.s. thanks xav0989, I hadn'tthought about try catch.

OK, I am trying to get a handle on what kind of mySQL errors will feed info back to php. I know connection errors feed back to php and back to browsers, but what about the following... { mysql_query( "INSERT INTO users VALUES (" +"'" +$id +"'," +"'"...

For MS, if it true, then it is intentional. They are not dummies. If anything, they don't want to be following standards, they want to be creating and setting them. Not following standards is as much a marketing ploy as anything else. It's a way to differentiate themselves from the competition...

6 Einsteins frowning at me! LOL

Well, that's a good point, except I'm not sure how else a kid is going to hear about something big in the outside world. Newspaper I guess. My first memory of war was another biggie. The 1967 7-day war between Israel and Egypt, though it didn't have the same impact as watching Kennedy speak...

Re: Micheal Jackson reported dead OK fair enough, I cant really argue with anything you say, except that we differ on a couple of points about what it means to be influential. With regards to your comment about influence in dance and video, I have no issues with that, I was thinking more...

huh? guatemala and Belize are just south of Mexico. They are at the northern end of Central America. I just cheated and checked the map, which does. Oh hang on, that's mot a typo it's a hint. :)

Re: Micheal Jackson reported dead Influential? I dunno about that. Extremely famous sure, but influential? Anways, don't get carried away about his supposed musical genius. Fact is, he could afford to hire talented genius musicians and producers such as Quincy Jones. Dude could dance...

nah you are right. bad guess, They are Central America. Anyways, I can visualize the countries on a map, I just can't get their names off the tip of my tongue. It'll come.
