    Does this motivate you?

    One hell of an improvement, and I'm glad we have a forumite who actually reacts to suggestions! :) The top header look so much slicker and the background image is a huge improvement!! I have to admit, being a PS3 owner, I'm primarily an fps kind of guy and the index didn't really get me...

    csv data import

    Thanks I've now completed a data preview page (with make_safe even on echo) and tested it. The data is then put into <td>'s and it works well with all sorts of nasty data! The final part is the insert itself and I can't get my head around inserting from the array. //create function...

    CSS DEFINITIONS The are two ways to define division styles. 1) by class: Classes can be applied on as many occasions as you want. Note that class definitions have a dot/stop before them. css .style1{ border: 1px solid #000000; } html <div class="style1"> Hello </div>...

    csv data import

    Now I think I'm getting somewhere... again, this page is at www.freecrm.x10hosting.com/test.php I have tested it with single and double quotes and \\. Before I start coding in the MySQL insert query, I just wanted to check I'm on the right lines. I have commented all the way through...

    csv data import

    Thanks Misson - helpful as always. I have now done some serious reading up on form security and now understand the reasoning behind malicious injections. Fortunately, the majority of my site is not at risk. I also understand that addslashes is not a favourable route (not quite sure...

    csv data import

    Arrrghh.... I'm getting confused here and found out I don't really understand this down to the roots! Just for reference, I have a test page at www.freecrm.x10hosting.com/test.php This is pretty much what I have function format_db_string($string) { $string =...

    csv data import

    I've just had a user issue relating to my data import function. The function imports from a csv file. As part of the data prep, I have $logo = str_replace('"', '', $data[3]); to get rid of the double quotes. This users issue was that some of his data has single quotes, which was...

    Help creating PHP code

    I'm not sure you can name individual files simply, but a good shortcut would be the add a variable to the URL. For instance, you could specify a redirect to a "home.php" page with a variable. "home.php?id=123" This means you only have to create one page and can alter that page...

    Scripting Template and Design Language

    I don't use a CMS, as I find them annoying!! The scripts I use are in php and very useful for maintaining a corporate feel throughout the entire site. As you know, you can use single .css files to control the look across the site. In addition, you can also use the <?php include(); ?>...

    website uptime

    I think 50-60% is a little harsh. There seems to be a few opinions flying around so I've put a tracker on mine to get some evidence. 100% so far!!!!!

    Flash portfolio/tutorial site

    LMAO I would add another opinion here. Search engines don't read Flash and there are still some browsers wih slow connections. So... you have An intro page in Flash, with an option for plain html. Or you have html with Flash plug-ins to show off your talents. But yes, you should...

    Need Help on a Form

    You could try this approach.. Your first page don't need altering. In your sendmistakes.php file, you just need to set your headers and then insert the values from the post. You could do with capturing their e-mail address in your form. i.e. $toemail="youremail@address.com"...

    Interesting.. I tried that website but couldn't find it? I also have a topic on this http://forums.x10hosting.com/free-hosting/97190-cossacks-forum-downtime.html I must admit, it certainly doesn't appear to have anywhere near 99% uptime, but it depends on time of day and weekends. In all...

    reveiw my site AND WIN!

    OK - serious feedback time! Firstly, I think your main wrapper is designed for 800x600. Whilst this isn't major problem, you must bear in mind that only about 5-6% of people still ue this resolution. You may want to think about increasing it to 1024x768 to get within the "fold". The...

    Please comment on my design for a technology blog / portal

    Had a quick look againtoday and it doesn't seem to have changed. Have you updated/ uploaded all the css files? About your second question, your featured post comes in a div at the base of the page and doesn't have anything in the css about specific positioning other than float left, which...

    Cossacks/ Forum downtime

    Hmm... I know of lots of paid servers, two of which I have used before, but only one supports php and that only has one MySQL DB.. shame. Your comments about the reliability of the X10 paid severs is interesting! @garrettroyce I think you're right - I did my homework last year and...
