Well, I have an idea for a standalone application that will be very heavily database driven (MySQL actually). I was just wondering what I should look for in someone to work with for making the application. Hence, I wouldn't be learning anything :) Just trying to find out what skillset I...

Hello everyone. I'm a database guy and I have some ideas I'd like to discuss about GUI programming. First off - which OS, if any, do you think is easiest to program GUIs for (Windows, Linux, OSX, etc.)? Which of the above create the best GUIs, if different? Would a cross-platform...

Damn you, why do you have to go and make it that simple. I was so excited when I figured out a way to do it on my own :( In all seriousness - thanks, that really helps. At first I thought that I didn't have access to the simplexml libraries since I'm using a Windows binary of PHP, but I...

Yet again I seem to have answered my own question. I ended up using a combination of file_get_contents to import the XML result into a string and strpos to search for the location of the three XML tags I needed. The actual code looks like this: // x $xml = file_get_contents(...

This should be my last question with this project. An element of my task requires me to submit a URL to Amazon and parse the XML result. I only need three elements of the actual XML file. This is an example of the file: &#8722; <ProductInfo...

After actually opening my PHP book (ick), I realized globals are what I needed. The reason they didn't work last time is I was setting the variable, then defining it as global. You need to do this the other way around for it to work. Whodathunkit.

No go. This seems so simple, but then again, most things do at the beginning... If it makes a difference, I have three variables that I need to be available outside the script, not just one.

I'm back. I have a function whose primary purpose is to set a few variables. These variables are to be used outside the function. I'm having problems making them do this. I understand that variables in the script (outside the function) aren't available inside the function (this isn't a...

Downtime means the store doesn't open :) While not as big as $2,000/minute... it's a family owned and run business, so it can be as high as $233/hour. It's pretty significant considering we have to pull in $1700 a day to break even. Retail blows.

Thanks for the input. I ended up doing something very similar but adding the whole thing to a MySQL database (since the finished text file will be about 24k lines long and will be somewhat unweildy). This is my code: $file = file( "rgis.txt" ); mysql_query( "delete from rgis" )...

Hello again everyone. I'm back with another probably-simple PHP question. I have a tab-delimited text file with two columns that I would like to get into a PHP array. So far I've done this: $file = file( 'rgis.txt' ); and that provides me with: Array ( [0] => 0198320493 2...

Hey everyone. I have a unique situation that I'd like some help with if possible. The situation involves two segments: a virtual-host-based website with a major web provider (front-end) and a Windows XP application server (back-end). The back-end server is located in my office at work. Its...

Hmmmm last time I tried to recompile a kernel I broke lotsa stuff. It's worth a shot though. Add me to your msn... [email protected]. For some reason I don't have you on mine any more.

OK, so from what I can tell it looks like the system itself has been updated but it is still trying to use the 2.4 kernel. How can I tell the system to use the 2.6 kernel? For what it's worth, I can't find a 2.6 image on the system (at least not in /boot). Is it hiding somewhere or is there...

It sounds to me like apt-get should have taken care of this stuff... lemme see what I come up with.

So that didn't seem to do much. But here's a question... if I've upgraded to a 2.6 kernel, should my grub entry still be pointing to a 2.4 boot image? There's something fishy about this because when I install the system for the first time everything works great, but I get these errors after I...

hi2u :) I'll try that when I get home. Thanks!

I don't think it's a problem with the apt-sources - everything downloads, unpacks, and installs just fine when i do the dist-upgrade. It's when I restart that I get the error about the superblock being written in the future. Any idea?

Hey everyone. I have installed Debian 3.1 on my IBM T41 and it works relatively well. However, when I edit my sources.list and include the testing distribution, and run an 'apt-get dist-upgrade', the kernel panics on a reboot saying something about the superblock being written in the future...

Oh, right. Sorry. This sounds like some old SCSI stuff, an area I have 0 experience with. So I'll butt out.

I read your post twice and still couldn't find a question in it... if there even is one.

The option to use the remote gateway, while buried quite well, did work. Thanks for the help guys. To answer some questions... The primary reason I don't like RDC is because, like I stated before, all of the workstations at work are in use from 5:30AM until 10PM/12AM (retail sucks)...

RDC makes it difficult when working with large SQL queries (very laggy), and I don't have a spare workstation to connect to at work (all being used by other people). I'll give that option a try. Thanks guys! P. S.: Latency was so high because I was transferring a 300MB database from work...

Hello again all. I've been pondering something for a while. I have a SBS2003 server at work and I use the Windows VPN to work on our database and such from home. The VPN itself works very well. I noticed something that made me think though. When connected to the VPN, all web traffic from my...

It was PHP, kinda forgot to mention that. And this worked perfectly. I knew it was some simple function that everyone uses. Thanks, you saved the day!

Hey everyone. I'm working on a little project for work and this one problem has me stumped. I have some data entering a variable through an HTML text area. They are ISBNs for books, separated by a carriage return (actually a carriage return and then a line feed [character 13, character 10])...

This worked. Thanks! Now I have to get that into the fstab...

I'm trying to mount an NTFS volume on my Debian 3.1 file server. I'm able to mount it (as read-only) but whenever I do the owner of the mount point is set to root. When I unmount it, it changes back to my user. I can't chown the directory once it's mounted since it's read-only. Is there any...

One more until eBay...

Top! Don't like my prices? Make an offer!

Hey everyone. I'm just starting to get the basics under my belt administering a SBS2K3 Active Directory network. I've just about got all users moved to the domain but I have one question about what to do next. We have two computers that are just Point of Sale terminals - no users will...

Dibbs on the 4700 were withdrawn and no response from the Mobo/CPU guy, so everything's still there!
