You can also use a .htaccess file in your root directory that will redirect something like http://www.alljammin.com/joebloggs to http://www.alljammin.com/profiles.php?=joebloggs (is that syntax right, still getting familiar with it) and your profiles.php can take the joebloggs variable and setup the...

Not too sure if this will make much of a difference but the example int the php doc uses double quotes instead of single quotes around the 1.0 (Sorry if it's irrelevant, I am trying to learn PHP bit by bit by looking how things are done in this forum and reading a book :D )

I just thought I'd elaborate on viral marketing as I think lazersam's explanation wasn't too good (sorry lazersam). Viral marketing can really be implemented in many ways, be it selling something, giving something away for free, or getting traffic to your site (the more popular implementations). A g...

Patrickg that sounds like a really good way of storing the password. I am just wondering though, is it at all possible that someone can intercept the plain text password as it is being submitted? I don't mean by means of a keylogger etc on the client side, but from the posting of the page. I am thin...

If security isn't of the highest importance then why not use password protected directories (I believe this can be done with a simple .htaccess file on linux) and use PHP file uploading and moving functions to store/retrieve the files and keep a record of where the files are, when they were submitte...

I get the same as Bech100

Just wondering if this could have anything to do with the type of old_var? I am still a bit new to PHP but is there such a thing as type casting in PHP. That is, converting $old_var to integer or double to make sure it calculates correctly

I don't think it's too good an idea to remove the accounts that don't post much, after all there are some people like me who just search for solutions rather than asking what has already been answered, and one main reason I register is so I can see all the new posts to read everyday. And I am sure t...

I have Opera 7.23 on Windows 2000 and it supports DHTML but I can't say for sure when it started supporting it, but I think I can safely say from the early days of DHTML (Whenever that was) as Opera does do a good job of keeping up to date. I am pretty sure too that Mozilla is compliant as well part...

I don't see any particular order to that, but you could add another single integer field and maybe call it something like intRegLevel (is that right? still getting to grips with PHP) and give each level a number e.g. Platinum =1 Gold =2 Silver =3 Paying =4 Non-Paying =5 and you can order that by int...

Pardon my ignorance but isn't that how age is calculated? i.e. Current year minus birth year. If you want to get picky I guess you could always add a few if statements to check if the birth month has passed in which case the above code is correct, and if it hasn't then just subtract 1 year. If you w...
