How Do I Make PHP Based Image Gallery Like This? Help Needed
Houdini replied to killingjoke's topic in Programming
Here is you a link so you can at least get started thinking about what you will eventually end up with. Even though you might now only have a few images you would want to have a gallery that is easy to update and maintain. Try this link Create An Online Photo Gallery. This should help you out in your quest. -
The problem here is that they can not connect to the database using the given username this is what would give that error. Are you getting into the databse at all using the username newuser because that is what the error is calling the username? The config.php file ain't gonna help until they can sucessfully connect to their database, it is only godd for running the application when the values are correct? If you username is neverseen then your config.php would look like $dbms = 'mysql';$dbhost = 'localhost'; //This assumes Xisto$dbname = 'neverseen'; //this is from the error$dbuser = 'neverseen'; //with Xisto the username and dbname are the same$dbpasswd = 'whateverYourPasswordIs'; //replace the text in the password to yours$table_prefix = 'phpbb_';define('PHPBB_INSTALLED', true);Are you using the phpBB install program? If so is this when the error shows up?

Looking For Upload Scripts That Support Over 150MB help

stevedemarcusnospam<at>bellsouth<dot>netRemove the nospam behing my name stevedemarcus and replace the <at> and <dot> with the appropriate characters (fool the spam bots but not people). -
You code is showing a form that gets the data namely id a title and then the content. Is you id auto incremented in your table? Could you show the code for the HTML form because that is where the query is looking for the data, and if it doesn't see those named field on the form it is just putting null or a space into those fields.It would help to see the code for the form. Also Since I don't know what software you are using it is hard to know what your Admin Control Panel does.

That error is one you would normally see on your local webserver because it is not connected to the internet and cannot send E-mail from your local server, so the problem was with the Xisto server. The PM system and the send mail for newly registered users both use the emailer file which is found in the includes directory includes/eamiler.php When servers are beong upgraded or being worked on or if there is a problem you can expect all sorts of strange behavior.

Another Hosting Account: Is That Possible At Asta
Houdini replied to Khymnon's topic in General Discussion
I do not know why you would want another hosting account for just a personal site, unless the first site you have has many large files ther is no real reason that I could see that you would use up 150MB. I would suggest getting enough credits to upgrade to the 150 MB and you can run both site from the one account.A personal web site is not much of a space eater. I run 2 PHP-Nuke sites on my account and even have a chat thrown in but never use it really.I have another hosting account with only 100MB and just now got to it upper limit, and have 60 rather large files that occupy 45MB Plus a PHP-Nuke and an mxBB Portal mostly for testing purposes. -
Disregard my first post concerning uploading 'music' you can upload any file type to your server. This is one of the reasons that the mp3 files are so popular, being that they are compressed audio files but converted to the mp3 format to save space while still giving reasonable quality. You will have to have a means of letting others access your file like in this post Audio post with midi. This was uploaded from my home PC to my website, this is because I allowed for files of the .mid type as well as .mp3 to be uploaded within my program, but with certain limitations, such as file size, number of attachments etc. I am not sure if Midis are allowed to be uploaded here on Xisto but it might be. An audio or 'music' file probably will be the .mp3 format and can be uploaded but there are many considerations when you want others to hear your upload, the main one being that there are copyright laws, so don't upload a major hit song to your server or you will be subject to prosecution with fines and possibly jail time.

I am not really sure wha you mean about recieving email I mean you do have an email client, do you mean you want to use PHP to act as an email client on your webserver? Here is a link to the PHP manual concerning IMAP, NNTP and POP3 http://us2.php.net/imap you might find what you want there.

Looking For Upload Scripts That Support Over 150MB help
Houdini replied to bash18's topic in Programming
By default that is true. First I'll give the script right from the PHP Manual. <!-- The data encoding type, enctype, MUST be specified as below --><form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="__URL__" method="POST"> <!-- MAX_FILE_SIZE must precede the file input field --> <input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="30000" /> <!-- Name of input element determines name in $_FILES array --> Send this file: <input name="userfile" type="file" /> <input type="submit" value="Send File" /></form> Replace _URL_ with the name of a PHP file. To get around the 2 MB limit you have to make a change in the php.ini file. also from the PHP Manual For more about this feature here is a link to the appropriate section of the manual so I don't give faulty information PHP Manual common pitfalls Since you probably do not have access to the php.ini file you can add this line of code to an .htaccess file in the directory where your script is going to be (Remember that .htaccess is a hidden file) php_value upload_max_filesize 153600000You would also have to use that value in your script. 153600000 (150MB) -
I think the origonal post want a host to upload music to, kind of like a peer to peer, but I could be wrong, The answer is that you can not really upload an audio file but you could point to one with an http link.

The hard drive runs slower and that is the problem, so fix for this is get a faster hard drive...If the hard drive you are used to is 1/3 times faster than the old one then you should expect to see that much degradation in performance. You just put a working SLOW hard drive into your box is all it is.

It would help if you were to post the code you have or attach it along with the requirements about how you intend on using the data.

Questions About This Website/topic Page astahost topic page
Houdini replied to bachdot's topic in Websites and Web Designing
That is a tuff one to try to explain. To see all the Categories available on this cite simply clcik the index link which is Free Web Hosting and you will see it at the top of all pages on this site it might also have a right pointing arrow > or greater than sign and then another link for instance you posted this message in the Web Design and HTML forum I know this because just under the Shoutbox thingy are these Text links like Free Web Hosting > Computers & Tech > Designing > Web Design and HTML. If you want to return to a post that you have made there is a way to do that and it is to search for your own username. To do this at the top of the page there is more text links and between |Help| and |Members| you will see |Search| , clcik the search link and instead of clicking Perform the Search button click the More Options button and enter your member name. I just did it and the last post you made before this one is right here in Graphic DesignHope that help you out. -
GD is installed I just did a phpinfo() on my site, if you want to see for your self copy paste this code into notepad (no formatting, just plain text). Upload it to root and run by going to your index or home page and typing phpinfo.php instead of index.php or index.html and it will show up right after FTP enabled. <?phpecho phpinfo();?> call the above code phpinfo.php and run it and you can see what is enabled on the server.

Actually the Knowledge Base is more than a definition of terms, it is what you make it. Like the Knowledge Base with Microsoft It explains or clarifies an area of knowledge. It might be an article on how to back up your XP operating system after you have installed a Service Pack in the event you ever have a hard drive failure and want your XP just like it was prior to the crash. An encyclopedia might define term and also give examples but a knowledge base would be a module that anyone can contribute to that show how to lets say use a particular PHP function or a JavaScript that does something useful. The other two PafileDB and ProfileCP are modules that; PafileDB ProfileCP The attachment MOD is difficult to install in you are not used to installing MODs, and it is one of the first MODs that I ported from phpBB2 to PHP-Nuke which made it very difficult to install, since I had to rewrite and alter a lot of the file in order for it to work. With mxBB though you can use any MOD written for phpBB2 ncluding Easy Mod which installs many MODs with the click of your mouse, a MOD that would take up to an hour to manually install would only take a minute or two with Easy MOD and it does it all for you (problem is that not all MODs are compatible and may not install with it).

Do yourself a big favor and get XAMPP or WAMP, they are both Apache based webservers with PHP, and MySQL amoung other things already built in, and you can set them up on your ME heck I set them up on Win98 a long time ago. You merely download either or both of these run the install and then start using your new server on your local machine, there is no need to set up a web server on a web server you just want a host that has certain capabilities like MySQL and PHP possibly Perl, phpMyAdmin, and other things. Unless you have good reference material to set up the Apache, then the MySQL database server and then PHP along with the php.ini to make it do what you want, then get a package like XAMPP or WAMP that do it all for you in just a few minutes after you have downloaded it instead of spending days or weeks only to end up with a big mess due to not really knowing what all needs to be configured to set up a web server and supporting programs and other servers like mail servers or FTP Hosts. It can be done but it is not easy I know I have done it and I have reference material on all the above and even with that it still is a chore. XAMPP is right HERE! and WAMP is right HERE!

Actually I found out what it was because Elements added it to my styles like this Now all I need to do is figure out how to actually use my program, it is basically Photoshop but without all the super duper things that would come with it. I have lavers and the filters and pretty much the same things as Photoshop but have had it so long I don't even remeber what the real differences are but I can tell you that Adobe makes it.

I thought the FTP method of creating a database was rather unique, I would like to see that happen it is far beyond my level of just using MySQL or PHP script. I have only been able to use it for uploading files to the server but when I learn how to use the FTP method I will have gone to the extrmes with coding.

I noticed that ou are a hosted member so I wrote a little script that you can use then you can go further after success with this and when I know just what it is you are wanting to do. I used a field with TEXT data attribute which allows up to 65000 characters so here is a script that you can copy and past into the root where your index.php or index.html is and run from your home page and create a test table (Inamed this one test1, you could change it to something else but be carefule not to use the name of an existing table or the script will fail.) <?php$host = "localhost"; //most host are localhost but could be mysql (rare))$user = "root"; // this is a default with no password assigned when first installing put your username in here$pass = ""; // Default also, enter your password here for the database$db = "databasename"; // This is probably your username_(DataBaseName)$table = "test1"; //lets make a test table you can view this with phpMyAdmin in cPanel after you run this simple script$connect = mysql_connect($host, $user, $pass) or die("Could not connect to server...check you username and password");$db = mysql_select_db($db, $connect) or die("Could not connect to Database...check you username and password");echo "Connecting to Database...<br />";$sql = mysql_query("CREATE TABLE $table(id INT(4) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,title VARCHAR(50),content TEXT,PRIMARY KEY (id))") or die("Could not create table");echo "Success your new database table <b>$table</b> has been created!<br />!"."You should now eliminate this file from your server for security purposes."; ?>OK Copy that code and call it table.php or anything you want.php then run it from your home page. Then using phpMyAdmin in the cPanel look at your database and you will see a new table called test1 (unless you changed that part). Remove the file that you just uploaded and used and post back to learn how to use your database.

There are a couple of reasons for quick replies, one is that most people here try to be helpful, and two it keeps hosting credits up (don't want to have your hosting suspended). SunBlind thanks for the response, but what is the .asl file it has an icon of a Photoshop Elements (that's what I use) but will not open? There are image folders for each color (red, green, blue, yellow, orange, and cyan) I haven't looked too much at the .css files I just know that each style has its own style sheet. I will check out your site because I can hardly draw a stickman. I can alter hues and stuff but when it comes to layers and masks and all that stuff I have absolutely nary a clue! I am technical and not very artistic at all, that is why I write code.

Sending Mail To A Mailing List Possibility of sending a newsletter
Houdini replied to Vyoma's topic in Programming
Here are some links to some free scripts you night find of interest. On of these does not use a database but a textfile. http://phpmailer.worxware.com/ http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ This is the one that uses a textfile instead of a database to possibly achieve what you want. http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ -
Here is the example because I can not even attempt to explaing it or how it was produced. I am not an artist but can follow instruction...so here is the image! This is from a theme for phpBB2 called Cyan Glass (thereis also red, green , blue, orange and yellow), but with a different css file for each color theme.

I don't know what forum software you are using but it should allow you to be able to create users groups like you have in your post regular members et cetera and when you have aasgned your members to these special groups which are created through your ACP (Admin Control Panel) then you should be able to have forums that only certain members are allowed into and so forth. It would help to answer your question if the forum software you were using or CMS like PHP-Nuke XOOPS, or Mambo.

125 Yr Old Woman Sprouts New Tooth
Houdini replied to miCRoSCoPiC^eaRthLinG's topic in Websites and Web Designing
Teeth can do weird things, I remeber reading a case of a fellow who started growing a tooth out of his foot. I also had a childhood buddy that had two sets of baby teeth, when he lost his first baby tooth another one replaced it, not an adult tooth, he was nearly to full adulthood before he had lost both sets of teeth and had his 'permanent' teeth, that was kinda strange.
