  1. Here's what I wanted to do: set up a "puzzle of the day" email delivery system that people could subscribe to. Here's how I attempted it: using a modified version of an article on asp101 (getting scripts to run on a schedule), I put the following code at the bottom of my site's homepage: Code: <% If DateDiff("d", Application("LastScheduledRun"), Now()) > 0 Then Application.Lock Application("LastScheduledRun") = Now() Application.UnLock 'Trigger the emailer, which will then redirect back to here. Response.Redirect "/delivery.asp" End If %> delivery.asp in turn sends off that day's puzzle and redirects back to the homepage. Well, it worked, sort of. I had my own email as the only recipient for the past 4 days as a test. And I did indeed get the puzzles: 3 times a day. That's problem number 1. Until today, when I didn't get the puzzle at all. By this time of day, it's usually arrived twice. That's problem number 2. Any suggestions? Up to and definitely including "try the following free service/script instead"... Note that this is a godaddy hosted, cheap-as-possible account. I don't believe I can access any kind of scheduled task controller on the server. Thanks in advance.
  2. Anyone care to share how I can add a simple promt for asking the user:"Are You Sure You Want to do This?" on submit.....<%'show Remove Expired button if Mike is logged inIf realtor("ID")=1 ThenResponse.Write("<FORM ACTION='mainmenu.asp' METHOD='post'>")Response.Write("<INPUT type='submit' name='S2' value='Remove Expired'>")Response.Write("</FORM>")End If%>Something like onsubmit="Are You Sure?"
  3. Anyone knows a free autoresponder script (preferably PHP) that enables to send a series of emails according to a specific time interval? If customizable fields can be included, it's better. And also a tracking script which lets me track the click throughs of links like http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ and a handy Tell-A-Friend script. I really appreciate your input. Thank you.
  4. I am trying to convert a date that I take from an email. It is in this format:Wed, 02 Aug 2006 03:59:10 -0700And I want to convert it to:2006-08-02This:trim(substr($date,12,4))."-".trim(substr($date,8,3))."-".trim(substr($date,5,2))...will get me:2006-Aug-02.Any quick php tips to convert the "Aug" to convert to "08"?Thanks!
  5. HiFew years back, I developed a passion for photography. Therefore, I got myself a Nikon camera. However, due to my busy schedule, I hardly had the chance to try it out. I will be having my semester break soon and thus I would like to start pursuing my "lost-passion".Therefore, can anyone teach me how to take a good picture? As in the angles, the mode etc. I have always been fascinated on how others managed to take such nice pictures.Anyways, I would like to capture the nature as I have always been amazed by the beauty of nature (the sun, the sky, the trees, the flowers and the insects.)Is there anyone out there who shares the same passion as me? If you are one of them, would you mind sharing a skill or two?I appreciate it a lot. Thank you.
  6. HiI would like to create a youth-oriented website. The theme colors I have chosen is lime green and black. However, I am bad at design the layout. Therefore, I would like to seek your comments regarding the layout.Is it possible if you can list down some examples of websites with similar themes so that I can take reference?My target audience is from 10-16 years old.Thank you for your help.
  7. Hi I have tried using mySQL. I think that it is quite common and useful. One of the advantages for mySQL is that it is free (open source). Therefore, I would recommend you to use it too. Normally people who use PHP will eventually use mySQL. For more information about this, you can log on to http://www.mysql.com/

  10. Hi Is it possible to retain the URL of a website? Example: The user log on to http://abc.go.com/. After he clicked a link to go to another page, the address bar would still retain http://abc.go.com/ I have been searching this using search engines but I just could not find what I wanted. Therefore, can anyone here teach me how to do this? thank you.
  11. Hi I have just started learning PHP programming too. I think that it will be easy to pick it up if you have prior knowledge of the other programming languages (not HTML). I know that you do not have any past experiences with the other languages. However, I believe that if you really wish to learn, you still can pick it up speedily. The website that I would recommend you is http://sg.php.net/. This website provides all that you need regarding PHP programming. I got to learn alot from this website as it gives real examples of codes and gives a detailed explanation of how the codes will work. I hope that you would give this website a try. I also hope that you can be able to be a PHP savvy soon.
  12. Hi Other than signed Java Applets, all the Java Applets will be "forced" to run in the sandbox. This is to ensure that the security goals are not compromised. Therefore, in order not to allow your Java Applets to run in a sandbox, you have to ensure that the Applets are digitally signed and they are accepted by the end-users. However, you may want to find out yourself on how to digitally sign your applets.
  13. You can try out Borland JBuilder. It is a software for you to run your Java applications. This software is free and you can download it from https://www.microfocus.com/borland. There are other softwares provided by Borland too. The softwares will allow you to run your C++, Pascal or even other programming languages' applications. I hope that what I said would aid you in your work.
  14. Hi everyoneI just learnt a little about using Javabeans in JSTL programming. I learnt to use it for shopping cart purposes as well as creating cookies. However, I wish to know where Javabeans can also be used with PHP programming as I would like to build my site with PHP.I am looking forward to your replies.Thanks.
  15. Hi I have just learnt how to do it. I think you can use the session_destroy() function. More information can be found at http://sg.php.net/session_destroy I hope that the website would give you the answer that you are searching for. Cheers.
