• Hello!

=[
Why doesn't this pop up:

<script type="text/javascript">
var name = confirm("You have new private messages in your inbox.
Click OK to go to your inbox, or cancel to continue.")
if (name == true)
{
window.location="inbox.php"
}
</script>

what do you mean popup? you've got no popup code there?

could i care less?




(no)

Is it supposed to be a message box?

Chay doesn't apreciate any programming

nope

the code, assuming you remove the carriage return mid-string, will do this:

prompt with an yes/no dialog
if the yes button is clicked, the current window navigates to index.php

here's the same code, cleaned up a bit

<script type="text/javascript" language="Javascript">
<!--

if (confirm("You have new private messages in your inbox. Click OK to go to your inbox, or cancel to continue.")) {
window.location="inbox.php";
}

//-->
</script>

Yeah, it was the carrige return that stopped it from working, mind you, Cal's way is much prettier...

Now I've got a PHP problem =]
I analyse a table like this ($link is the link to my MySQL database):

$query = 'ANALYZE TABLE `tblpm` ';
mysql_query( $query, $link ) or die ( "Error! : ".mysql_error() );

How do I display the information passed back from the database?
I've looked all over the web and there is no (simple) information ANYWHERE!

display on a web page?

have you tried the help guids here? www.tripod.lycos.co.uk/build/php4u/ You will have to have a lycos account/maybe a tripod account though

Othere then that I'm not sure cos I am still learning php and mysql myself

to view the results of a non standard query:

--------------------------------------------------

<?
$result = mysql_query($sql, $db);

$i = 0;
$fields = array();
while ($i < mysql_num_fields($result)){
$meta = mysql_fetch_field($result);
$i++;
$fields[] = $meta;
}
?>

<table border="1">
<tr>
<?
foreach($fields as $field){
$data = $field->name;
echo "<td><b>$data</b></td>\n";
}
?>
</tr>
<?
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)){
echo "<tr>\n";
foreach($fields as $field){
$data = $row[$field->name];
echo "<td>$data</td>\n";
}
echo "</tr>\n";
}
?>
</table>

--------------------------------------------------

of course, the real answer is that ANALYSE doesn't actually return any results. what did you think it did?

You know, like it did on PHPMyAdmin.

Fanks! =]

More!

I've got this script which jumps you to a page when a key is pressed.
Is there any way to stop it from paying attention when you have clicked in a text box / area?


<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">

<!-- Begin
var key = new Array(); // Define key launcher pages here
key['h'] = "home.html";
key['c'] = "contents.html";
key['p'] = "pictures.html";

function getKey(keyStroke)
{
isNetscape=(document.layers);
eventChooser = (isNetscape) ? keyStroke.which : event.keyCode;
which = String.fromCharCode(eventChooser).toLowerCase();
for (var i in key) if (which == i) window.location = key[i];
}
document.onkeypress = getKey;
// End -->
</script>

Or - how do I use 'ALT+f' instead of 'f'?

Fanks Cal!

What the fuck does "Fanks" mean? Am I so out of the loop with whats going down on the streets that its suddenly become acceptable to spell like a fucking 5 year old?

pah, your just not ' down wit da kids'

I'm not down wit anyone but if I was it most certainly would not be the kids!

Well... maybe the Olsen twins but that's it!

No me neither after todays shenanegans.

Sul - if you can't get your own teeny brain to figure out what Fanks means, especially when you look at the context in which it can be used, then you really should just stick to your colouring in...

I do the colouring in. and only muppets say "Fanks" :)

"Thankq" on the other hand is suave and sophisticated

grim: less of the nasty attitude thanks

Yeah - you {edited} {edited}, what the {edited} is your {edited} {edited}

or some bloody vbscript




Const ssfDRIVES = &H11 ' namespace constant (drives folder = 17)...
Const cdromDrvLtr = "G:\" ' specify your cd-rom drive letter...

Set oSH = CreateObject("Shell.Application")
' open the cd-rom drawer...
oSH.NameSpace(ssfDRIVES).ParseName(cdromDrvLtr).InvokeVerb "E&ject"



Change the drive letter to your CD-ROM drive letter and then save it to a text file called foo.vbs and click it.

enjoy.

that's cool, how can you use it
??

That vbscript? It is just for grins. It will open the CD-ROM drawer. Just copy and paste those lines of code into notepad, then save it with a .vbs extension. Then you click on the icon for that .vbs file and voila! the cd drawer opens up.

how do we know its not a (Secret) code for you to access my hard-drive and steal all my pornography?

cos no-one else wants thousands of three legged elderly donkey snuff pornography jpgs

Wow, i forgot about you super-editing powers.

Turd

Amen to that Sul, Amen to that! :)

i did that, saved it as a .vbs file a ran it, it worked as i expected it would. but is that all i can do with it?

Would you like him to write you a program that will make you a brew?

grim: less of the nasty attitude thanks

::whine:: But he started it!

I did too AHAHAHAHAHA, in your face :)
