  1. You are using $_GET variables with incorrect syntax. $_GET variables are put inside the array $_GET which you access with the following syntax.

    <?phpif($_GET['variable_name'] == "value") {  //statement}?>

    Also, try using the variable $_GET['step'] as a string instead of a integer. The comparison could be wrong.

    EDIT: I just noticed that you have $step as defined with 0. With the url index.php?step=1. You are not changing the value of $step. It is staying as 0 the whole time.

  2. Well, there many pros and cons to this. If a topic is deleted, the other users who post in it will lose credits. You though would be able to delete topics you make that you either find an answer right after you post or you post a double topic on accident. Maybe a time limit could be put on, or a user can delete the topic before anybody posts on it. Maybe at least the ability to close topics could be given.


  3. Well, what kind of game. Dungeon games like alex suggested can be done with a ton of HTML pages. But if you want a more functional game, you must use PHP and some form of database or flatfile. I would suggest waiting a while before making a game considering you only know HTML. For a good game, you need HTML, CSS, Javascript, and PHP, along with some SQL knowledge for your MySQL databases.


  4. Out of sheer boredom, I decided to learn Visual Basic using Visual Basic 2008 Express. I just made a web browser called SuckyIE. Basically it is a sucky version of IE. I probably will distribute it under a different name. Probably, Simple Browser or something. I will post a screenshot here soon.


  5. This is a really fun World War 2 shooter that is free to play. It is multiplayer only, but it is a really good game. I suggest trying it out. I myself play on the Enemies of War server with 2.55. Currently there are two versions of the client available, 2.55 and 2.6. You start with installing 2.55 and you can optionally upgrade to 2.6. Some servers are for 2.55 and some for 2.6. I have heard that 2.6 is much harder to play. The game is easily found on Google, just look for it. The game runs natively on OS X, Linux, and Windows.


  6. I for some reason recently received an email saying I won the UK lottery for the sum of 1,000,000 GBP. It is obviously a scam or I'm rich. Here is the email for your inspection:

  7. Well, a while back I started to get into Linux and tried out a few distros and found my perfect one. Linux Mint, a Ubuntu based distro that uses the same packages and repositories I believe. The latest version, Daryna, it based on Ubuntu Gutsy Gibbon. My laptop is a Compaq Presario C714NR with a BCM94311MCG WLAN Mini-PCI wireless card built in. It came with Windows Vista Home Premium and I bought it around December. Well, I finally got my wireless internet working using this tutorial:[link]

    The tutorial was very simple and it did what it was supposed to do. I recommend doing this on a fresh install, to make sure you haven't modified anything that deals with the packages used. If your wireless net does not work on (K,X)Ubuntu Gutsy/Linux Mint Daryna, then I recommend trying out this tutorial.


  8. I am looking for a free PHP IDE to use for my PHP script making. I am currently using Notepad++, but I do not like the way it saves sessions. By IDE, I mean an editor that creates projects and helps link files together, like Dev-C++ does for C++ projects. It is kind of sloppy keeping all the files in one directory, and having to remember all of these includes and stuff and what each file contains. I need one that keeps all PHP files nice and organized. I have tried Dev-PHP and it was what I needed, it just had a funky color scheme. Could anybody reccommend one to me. I need it to be up-to-date and not discontinued.


  9. The fastest way is buying them. If you are going to do this then just get paid hosting with Xisto - Web Hosting, a sister site of Xisto. They offer quality web hosting for an extremely affordable price. One package gives you a free domain and it is only $2.95 USD a month. The most efficient way is to post quality posts on the forums. Posting tutorials gets you a lot of credits quickly and posting in the forums that give credits of course would speed it up.


  10. rmvb is a RealMedia format and is played by Rhapsody and RealPlayer. I myself use Rhapsody because it came on my computer. I do not know of any other way of playing. You could probably find some codecs and play it with another media player, but I would just download Rhapsody or RealPlayer to stay on the safe side.


  11. Thanks for all those that voted ofr me legitly. I noticed that my votes for Gfx Elite went up to like 27, so I suspect somebody spammed voting for me. I do not know who it was though. I can't believe I got 20 votes for Most Creative, thanks for all of those that voted for me and congrats to all other award winners. And good luck next year.
