Has anyone else noticed this? I am currently developing a PHP knowledge base system. I am using the latest version of XAMPP with PHP 7. I'm not sure if I am doing something wrong but whenever I try and start the session, the page doesn't load, Chrome resets the connection, Internet Explorer says the...

I managed to sort it by setting the #container .content table to 99.9%

As for mobile responsiveness of phpBB, I don't know how the latest version fairs on mobile but I know, for sure, there is or, at least, was a script you could put in the root of the forum that would allow you to use your phpBB forum with an app on iOS

I have the following CSS relating to my table: [syntax=css] #container nav { border-bottom: #000033 thin solid; border-top: #000033 thin solid; border-ri...

Hi all, I'm working on this autocomplete script using AJAX in conjunction with Classic ASP which is not my idea. I have the following javascript: function showCustomer(str) { // remove white space from the name entered on the search screen str = str.replace(" ", ""); var xmlhttp;...

I'll take those points on board. I did, however, think about logging the IP but I actively decided against it since there could be multiple people sitting behind a single public IP address (i.e. a NAT router) meaning the system would be rendered useless within a university or school environment as o...

People pick ASP because it's Microsoft

I was once told that "No-one ever got fired for buying Cisco" so I guess they think that, if they go with Microsoft and it breaks, there is less chance of being fired for making a bad choice.

I have set up a site which allows users to create polls which expire after a certain amount of time. You can find the site at http://www.makepoll.co.uk and it emails you the results of a poll 30 mins after the expiry date (using a cronjob). It would be really great if I could get some feedback on th...

OK so the new project I'm working on is a system to let you create strawpolls and set expiry times for them. I am currently using a range to create the array to allow the user to select a number of hours. Is there a way of increment the array on 15 so that I'd have the array going 15, 30, 45, 60, 75...

I am trying to create a multi-field search based on the Database Searching tutorial. I am holding the field names in an array to make it easier for myself. The code I have is as follows function database_search_user_cond($connection, $term, $start_page, $per_page) /* This function will search the da...

This will output a listing of your music and let users download it and is a variation on my file listing script. This project requires the getID3() class so first go ahead and download that. You want to require or include the getid3.php file so you can take advantage of the getID3 class. You will th...

Yes, after playing around for a couple of days I thought "hang on, isn't <ul> a block level element" so I defined

nav ul { display: inline-block;}

Can someone help me out? I have a horizontal navigation bar using the HTML5 <header> and <nav> tags. The navigation links only take up 25% of the bar that's created and I want to put a search form at the end. I have this code so far header nav { border: #FFFFFF thin solid; } header nav ul { list-sty...

Good advice and, even though the mysql_ functions do work, people should be switching over. I switched from using MySQL to MySQLi a while back. You can also pass the connection variable as a function parameter which I usually do. <?php function some_database_thing($mysqli) { some query code; return ...
