I am new to log4php and was hoping someone could help me. I have copied in the source directory (named 'src' if I'm not mistaken) from the zipped folder into my htdocs directory. Aside from that, the only coding I have accomplished is a 'require("/log/Logger.php")' on a new page. It is very frustrating finding nothing out there as to step-by-step instructions (the best I found thus far is this or this). Even the official Apache landing pages give me no help. I could understand the process of sending a log to the script, but I can't seem to figure out what is what for configuration. For one, I keep seeing a DoSomething() function mentioned in generally the same spot within scripts, but this does not tell me if this is a real function or simply sudocode. If I create a custom, hand-written configuration file, where do/should I place it? Do I create a specific config file for each custom log or one big one? Say I name a custom log as cstmLog, how does this look in the code (hierarchy)? Lastly, it appears as though there are several ways to compile the configuration file (.ini, .xml, or .php), and there are several scripts that appear as though they would do this automatically, but I haven't found that magic ingredient. Additionally, there are several rows within the Logger.php file that COULD be used to configure the initial setup, but I have my reservations as to whether or not this should be changed in that code or something else. Unfortunately, this is something that I have been assigned to get done today, but I'm liking this less and less...if it were a personal project, I'd be able to spend more time at it, but I don't have that luxury with this. I haven't had the need to study/code asynchronous logging or hierarchical methods/classes in PHP thus far, so a fair majority of this code is foreign to me (such as, what the heck is a '::' for?). Ask me to create a forum from scratch, no problem. Ask me to use log4php, um, yeah...help me please.

My code is as follows: Function URL(rngValue As Range) If rngValue <> "" Then URL = rngValue.Hyperlinks.Item(1).Address Else URL = "" End IfEnd Function I am attempting to pull the hyperlink out of a single cell reference. I test the code on three cell value types: one with hyperlink text, one without hyperlink text, and one that's completely blank. Generally I am successful getting the first and third cells to return the URL value and blank value respectively, but I always get the fatal #VALUE! error on a cell that contains text without a hyperlink. I have researched this problem to no avail, although I have come up with several near tries (but all misses). Here are just a few variations that I've tried: Function URL(rngValue As Range) If rngValue <> "" AND Then URL = Application.WorksheetFunction.IfError(rngValue.Hyperlinks.Item(1).Address, "") ' It works if I catch the value in another cell referencing the answer but this does not. Else URL = "" End IfEnd Function Function URL(rngValue As Range) If rngValue <> "" AND CStr(rngValue.Hyperlinks.Item(1).Address) <> cVErr(xlErrValue) Then URL = CStr(rngValue.Hyperlinks.Item(1).Address) Else URL = "" End IfEnd Function Function URL(rngValue As Range) If rngValue = "" Or Application.WorksheetFunction.IsError(rngValue.Hyperlinks.Item(1).Address) Then URL = "" Else URL = Application.WorksheetFunction.IfError(rngValue.Hyperlinks.Item(1).Address, "") End IfEnd Function I've even tried to check and see if #VALUE! is a string return of '#VALUE!' but this does not seem to be the case either? I've even removed the 'Option Explicit' from the top of the module in case it had to do with back data type conversion. Also, from the intel I've gathered with experimentation, it would appear as though this when it tries to read the address of a cell that has no URL, it immediately skips any other following code. For instance, the excerpt: URL = CStr(rngValue.Hyperlinks.Item(1).Address)URL = "" would immediately return #VALUE!, even though I overwrote it! So maybe this is the key? Interestingly enough, however, it would not appear to be causing any pop-up debugging errors so when I am unable to catch it as a VBA error and an Excel spreadsheet function, it's sort of a limbo error that's burning my side. I've even tried the following code: When I search for a solution, all I am able to find is an alternative to the logic and not a way to suppress the error.

I need a solution to create an Excel 2010 Macro to copy the value =NOW() and paste as value from and to a relative cell in the same row (6 columns to the right) whenever a cell value is changed. Basically, whenever I edit the cell, it'll create a fixed timestamp off to the right.I have researched Worksheet_Change() and the Application.SheetCalculate = SubName with little sucess. Either I am pasting it into the wrong part of VBA (but I've already tried Sheet/Workbook/Module) or I am missing the right code to make my Sub start on the event trigger, but it does not want to work whenever I use it. If I can get it to at least run, I could figure out the rest...I've been programming in Excel VBA to create Excel functions for a bit of time now, but making an automated macro seems to be a completely different syntax since I am now working with cells, not just producing a value from a formula within the individual cell.

Some of you may recall that I previously wrote some time ago about PortableApps.com, but today I want to make mention of another fantastic freeware installer/manager. FreeApps (http://www.freenew.net/) is a great way to easily download and keep updating fantastic free software. Similar to CNET's TechTracker, this will monitor your computer for freeware upgrades. However, consider this nice feature: You can download and install free software directly from your desktop, similar to what Linux users are used to for their software managers. If that isn't cool enough, you can even custom package which ones you want directly from the website before you even install FreeApps (rather handy I'd say, especially if you're installing on a newly restored machine). Admittedly, it has its limitations in regards to the available software but at the same time they probably do this on purpose in order that only the best freeware is displayed. But for the most part, I've discovered little I use that was not included. There's not much else to say but that; it's pretty simple but still pretty good.

I'm nowhere close to having anything BluRay, and I have a large enough VCR collection it doesn't make sense to spend $100's to upgrade them all, even to just a regular DVD. So unfortunately I must still pick one of the first two. However, keep in mind that if I choose to spend more money on a TV, I could always use it separately if I need to purchase an LCD monitor someday. Keep replying!

I am now at a crossroads: I have bought myself a desktop and am now in need of a better monitor than this fine old 1024px CRT monitor. Additionally, I have a huge CRT TV in the same room and have thought that it is time for me to upgrade if I am going to use both. It makes sense in my case to purchase something that will work in either case. This is where you fit in.I could either buy for myself a TV tuner to place inside my PC and then a regular PC monitor, or the other option, a TV that I could use for a PC screen. Both have added advantages and I am in need of advice. Keep in mind that I'm no millionaire so I really don't want to be spending more than $300 USD on the solution.TV-tuner / PC monitor - In order to watch something, it requires that the computer be turned on (and hopefully I'm not doing something else on there that will interfere). I do not have a cable plan, so I will not get any added advantages by connecting it to the computer unless the EPG in the 'new' digital signals comes through on it. However, I presumably have to the advantage that I can digitally record any show that comes in. It's a fine idea, what will it really work for me? I have a lot of store-bought VHS tapes that I watch often, so I want to make certain that the spike they throw into the signal to prevent copying won't hinder me, and that I will not need to spend extra money on a analog to digital converter for this to work.TV used as PC monitor - This is the one I'm pulling to the most at the moment but I am open for opinions. Added advantages include being able to keep the PC off while I am watching, and I'm guessing less problems connecting my VCR to it. The first notable disadvantage, however, is that it will be difficult to watch something and work on my PC at the same time. However, with PbP (Picture-by-Picture) or PiP (Picture-in-Picture), it may solve my problem provided I can find a relatively small and affordable screen that will do this (LCD 22-24"). One other thing I like is the ability to utilize the built-in speakers rather than purchasing external ones (at the moment I'm trying to be very minimalist about the cost).So there you have it. Am I behind door #1 or door #2? We'll find out after these few brief responses from you when I return...

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no..! This was the idea I precisely had for making a website (except that mine is from scratch instead of a pre-built, less customizable, ad-filled website. Oh well, guess I'll have to think of a Plan C for my website's purpose (while that should be the first decision of any web developer, it seems to be my last).

I've had the new Firefox 4 Beta for sometime now (I randomly switch off and on between 3 and 4). After looking in the Feedback Study Findings relating to the usage of bookmarks, I thought it was incredible to discover that the maximum number of bookmarks was 41,000. This got me thinking (that's never a good sign). I could say with some fair certainty that the person in question must have pretty much bookmarked every page he or she ran across. This is not my goal, however, it did lead my onto my query."What if" I could access a site that indexed every top domain URL out there in such a way that I could download a bookmarks file to import into my browser? It would be necessary to include tags, and it would be recommended that you would be able to decide what content type you would like or not like to have. In this manor, you should be able to decide it's ranking, similar to WOT and Xmarks.Want to download the entire database? Not a problem. Want to download strictly domains with the tag "Google"? Not a problem. Want bookmarks suited towards or away from children, or a business professional vs. a pro gamer? Pick recommended demographics to get bookmarks suited to your desires/needs.I don't know if anything along those lines exist, but it would be nice to find out. At the very least it should be a simple (torrent) file that someone has constructed. Thanks!

Seriously, does nobody have a clue at either what I am asking for, or does it simply not exist? All I'm looking for is a short explanation at what to research this on. If I have the following code: <html> ... <body> ... <ul> <li>1. First</li> <li>2. Second</li> <li>3. Third</li> <ul> ... </body> ...</html> ...how do I retrieve the list items from this?

XHTML is a refined version of HTML and follows the guidelines of XML but is an ordinary web page. JavaScript and PHP allow users to access XML documents. I've recently learned the basics behind XSD (formatting/nesting rules for a specific XML document) and gather that this is the same equivalent of DTD and/or XMNLS.However, I am still at a loss how you can use JavaScript/PHP to pull in data from an XHTML document. I imagine you still use the same XML parsers you would use for an XML (RSS) file, but beyond that, I haven't a clue, but I know it is possible because I have seen it in action.Thanks!

Hey there. I'm looking for an RSS reader...yes, I do know about Google Reader, and I'll take that if I have to. However, I'm curious if I can find a decent desktop / system tray program that will flash up news from various sources. At the moment, using my Facebook wall with Digsby seems to be my best best shot, but I don't want to constantly see all those feeds when I log into Facebook.Keep in mind this is for an XP on my work PC...no Google Gadgets or Yahoo! Widgets to slow down the computer please. I'd just like to find a nice service similar but separate to Facebook / Google Reader that allows me to see them as they pop up. Filter words and the ability to see individual feeds as well as the entire set would be a plus. If it doesn't exist, guess I'll just have to create the program myself (not really, 'cause I don't have the time).Thanks!

Hey, someone who actually volunteers herself in a topic to help answer questions? I love it! I'll help you get started immediately by asking you a question that you might be able to help answer.I'm using (AT&T) DSL to access the internet. Because it's a dynamic IP address, the router usually get's messed up whenever the modem changes IPs. However, a former classmate of mine recommended changing the PPPoE over from the modem to the router to let the router take care of it. That used to work.Ever since a power outage a month or so ago, I had to reset the system. As far as I am aware, I set the PPPoE back up exactly as before. For the most part, it works fine...whenever the address changes, the connection fails, and it takes a few moments and then I'm back up and running. However, at random times the router still needs to be reset (i.e. unplugged and plugged back in). Why is this, and how do I permanently solve it?That'll give you something to respond with, I hope. Just so you know where I fit into the tech world, my current focus is web/database management (and a fair amount of programming) but I'm still very weak on the hardware/diagnosis side. Sounds like you'll be a valuable asset on Xisto...welcome!

I always try to write a topic while I'm still learning about it, because we all know that once you understand how something works from the inside out, it becomes all the more difficult to explain it very simply and basically to a novice. So as an experienced novice (how do you like that?), let me begin.Google Voice is NOT, repeat, NOT the same as Google Talk (their IM service). However, they are making headway to combine them together closer and closer every day. Yet I've still left you asking, what is Google Voice?Consider owning a master phone. One that you can take with you everywhere and use anywhere. Whether you're at work, home, or on the go, it can ring all places simultaneously. Call using your custom phone number (you get to choose it) and from almost any accessible phone. Check your voicemail at any location, and not only via phone, but also online. And if that isn't enough to sway you, how about it "automagically" transcribing those voicemails (or complete calls for that matter) to text and have it sent to your cell as a text, and/or your email (not including that it's still accessible anytime online).Need to make a long distance number? As long as you are within the US (and I believe Canada too), long distance is free. It will notify you if it is not. For international calls, you can stock you can stock your phone up with some cash and make incredibly cheap calls worldwide! Synced with your Google Contacts, you can choose who you want to ring what phone, pick a personalized greeting for that group, and choose whether you want to answer it immediately or thrown to voicemail right off. Light sleeper and tired of your phone ringing at the most inconvenient time? Tell Google to only allow each set phone an individual on or off schedule.Just today Gmail is now offering the ability to call straight from their page...I'm hoping this is transferring to Google Talk so that you can make phone calls straight from your PC! In November of 2009, they acquired Gizmo, which integrates Google Voice technologies into a desktop application, but after buying them out, Google shutdown the sign-up process. This is where my hopes lie.As always, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. I happened to run across Google Voice when I was searching for a free PC to Phone service to access my company's no-so-close free conference service's phone number so that I wouldn't have to pay long distance on the landline and not eat up minutes on my cell for a business that really is within my area code.... That was my intent.However, after getting Google Voice setup and configured the way I wanted it to work, I began experimenting around. Eventually I called the conference number to access the system where I should be able to punch in the conference ID and join my party. However, it could not connect. After slaving to figure it out, and then more time trying to post in the Google support forum that said I had exceeded the 8012 character limit (when I clearly was less than 1000), I checked around again.Google apparently denies access to specific numbers if they are more costly to access than the typical home phone. Why on earth conference call numbers are that way (amongst others, I'm sure), I'm no phone technician or accountant to explain why, but they are. So Google...from the bottom of their red, yellow, green and blue hearts...removed that number. So now I'm left in the same predicament as before.Nevertheless, Google Voice seems like a great service to at least explore. Unfortunately, I found out the sad news today that Google Wave, one of my previous topics, was recently shutdown to any new developments, though they do say they plan to implement the system into other apps and open the code to developers. So hopefully Voice does not choke under pressure. But, that's the way they operate at Google (spend several billion dollars to come up with 10 new ideas and see if one or two of them will catch on to the general public).
