i have used ASP .NET and PHP. i have many experiences with PHP and it is really powerful. but about ASP .NET is that it has a high level of customization on how each of the classes would work.

why not just a mysql lib and connect to the server directly? it would be much faster and efficient.

just grab the php manual at http://php.net/. then just apply for hosting here. read the online documentation about gd functions. there are user-submitted scripts and comments.

yeah you can do better..

another tip is practice, practice and practice... the more you do stuff the more you get better.

it's a complete cms suite. it can be configured to perform a specific function. it's really good and has php5 support.

why not just upgrade to 2.0.15? it's already released.

looks like you just need to pick from to solutions. being able to pick a language through a form or link.

and it would be much easier if you would use a template system and completely seperate your html tags from your php codes.

i just grabbed the PHP MANUAL and started learning!

OK so if i understand all of you correctly, what i should do is have the user log in (run my log in script) and then redirect them to the correct page that would contani their information?

it's really not a problem if you are not going to keep track of their ip adresses.

i think you are referring to your pages being cached by browsers rather than literally refreshing the page. add this to evry page to prevent browsers from cahing your php pages.

header("Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate");header("Cache-Control: post-check=0, pre-check=0", false);

header("Last-Modified: " . gmdate("D, d M Y H:i:s") . " GMT");

with the GD module loaded as a PHP extension, PHP gains image-editing functions.

raptrex, just change $mesg to your own variable that will contain the message of the post.

i belive that there is no way you can gather all the data about the user when he logs in and then display it with out another page or a script processes it. you have to make your script log the user in then redirect it again to the page with his details displayed.

just to summarize this topic so that everything is clear.Methods for refreshing:JavaScript - not really a good way because end users tend to disable their js support.Meta Refresh - Some say that end users also can disable themPHP Refresh through header() - Most effective i think.

you should use the GET method. redirect it like this. first.install.screen.php?lang=en

mike, using php to add a refresh to the header is just the same as adding a meta tag in html. the purpose of the the meta tag is to act like the headers being sent to the browser.

i think fffanatics already has his own auth system. and his code works. i think it's with $logged_in not beeing assigned with the right value.

i think that the solution is making use of a win32 api to make the account. but in order to use it, the win32 api extension of php must be enabled.

PHP also has no other way of refreshing a page other than a meta refresh. so just let it be. just blame them for disabling it.

you could just add a refresh meta in the page that would be refreshed. the idea of an offline system is just right for you because no one will be using your system outside of your personal network.

nice! looks like a painting...

i use ps cs.. i'm using for about a 7 months now and its great..
