I have to make an online volunteer hour logger for a school project, so I've been teaching myself PHP for the past few days, but for some reason none of the scripts I've tried have worked for me. I have a domain and server that provide MySQL and a web-based database manager (CPanel) and know HTML and CSS pretty well.

Basically what I want my website to be able to do is:

1. Enable users to register (fields: name, student no., password, password verification, email)
2. Login and submit their volunteering information in a form (fields: organization name, event/activity, volunteer type (drop down), date, #hours, reference letter (check box))
3. Be able to edit this information after submission
4. Logout
5. Possibly the administration being able to access a report summarizing a certain user's information? (like a query on Microsoft Access)

I've been following: http://www.tutorialized.com/tutorial/Signup-and-Login/3027 but after doing everything I don't know how to connect users to members-only pages.

My website right now is: http://www.rhscolts.org/cas
Login will be registration and login, and Your Hours will have a "Please login or register" message unless the person is already logged in, in which case the form and their volunteering info will appear.

Is this too hard to do? Because I asked some people before I set about doing this project and they told me all I need is a few scripts, but then nothing is really working right now :(

Can anyone help me please?
My email is sheatore@hotmail.com if you want to talk to me directly.
Please and thank you in advance, ANYONE!

hey guys,

I'm getting a tooltip from a button implementation in VS2005 that is driving me crazy.

Here is my code:

Private Sub AddNewDir_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles AddNewDir.Click

The tip appears when you hove over Click. It says: "Even 'click' cannot be found."

I don't understand why this is happening. Could it be that I am not inheriting the proper namespaces? My class only Inherits System.Web.UI.Page.



Edit: figured this out with help from MSDN. My error was I wasn't using the "asp:Button" syntax in the web form. I was creating the buttons as I was used to in the HTML, with "input type='button'" format. So, no wonder the codebehind file was throwing that error.

I have WindowsME opsys + registered CuteFTP version 4.0 + after not using CuteFTP for a few months, suddenly I am having a problem when doing a ftp upload (of the index page) = only about 2/3 of the index page loads. (I haven't tried to load any other pages or changes, not knowing what could be the problem.)

There is a general notification of an error when loading the page in the queue, but no message or number is connected to the error, so no clue there.

The javascripts all work fine because they are located at the top of the coded page. All looks good until you scroll down to the bottom of the site page, where it looks like I've made a mistake.

The page winds up looking like I have mis-coded the html, but there is nothing wrong there. (I know because I've tried uploading an older working version of the index page + the same type of problem shows up about 2/3 of the way down.)

CuteFTP is failing to upload properly, but I don't know what could be causing this.
Any help will be greatly appreciated, as it's time to make a website change.
TIA

Приветствую Вас!

Я не супер-гуру в программировании или дизайне. Я обычный человек знающий немножко PHP, немножко Java, немножко CSS, немножко дизайн. Пытаюсь по-чуть разобраться с разными CMS. К чему я это пишу?  Всё просто, этими знаниями я зарабатываю до $2500 в месяц работая только дома по несколько часов в день. Ну хорошо, я вру. Этого Вы ждали?:) Я работаю не по 2 часа, а по 3-5 часов в день. Но это всё равно не 8-12 часов, как я работал раньше на дядю. И получал я за это тогда около 500 долларов.

Как добиться большей зарплаты?
Наверняка большая половина здесь присутствующих работает на дядю за зарплату. И из этих людей найдется всего несколько человек которых размер этой зарплаты устраивает. Да и эти несколько человек не отказались бы получать больше. Впрочем, любой человек хочет комфортнее обустроить свой быт, лучше обеспечить семью, купить себе наконец мощный ноутбук, хорошо покушать. сделать евроремонт в квартире, или купить наконец эту самую квартиру, отдохнуть на хороших курортах и т.д. Любой человек стремиться заработать больше. Именно в этом я и хочу Вам помочь. Знаю Ваш вопрос: Зачем это лично мне? Опять же - всё просто.  Там где зарабатываю я работы хватит на всех и надолго. Мне нет смысла скрывать эту тему. Сам я всё равно не справлюсь со всеми заказами. Так как заказчиков и проектов для работы очень много. Грубо говоря - хватит на всех :)


Ну и что с этим делать?
Есть такой сайт - scriptlance. Точне сайтов такого свойства есть много. Но у этого есть несколько важных плюсов. Перечислю их:

1. этот сайт работает с гражданами бывшего СССР (с русскими, с украинцами, с бесорусами, с молдаванами, с таджиками и т.д.)
2. этот сайт не обманывает - т.е. когда пришло время снять оттуда заработанные деньги Вы их просто снимаете и точка. Без заморочек! На собственном опыте и опыте многих ребят из России, Украины и т.д.
   
3. этот сайт может вывести Вам деньги на e-gold а дальше в вэбмани, может вывести на Ваш банковский счет (этот вариант наиболее удобен)
4. этот сайт предоставляет Вам очень большое, огромное колличество проектов ежедневно. Т.е. ежедневно там появляется много новых проектов и Вам есть из чего выбирать.

2 problems:

the background image at the top does not repeat along the entire top of the page.

i have the image in a background of a div:

#top {
background:url(images/bgtop.jpg) repeat-x;
height:24px;
width:100%;
}

repeat x with 100% width should go across the entire page right? In safari and FF on mac it only spans however big my browser window is...help?

Anchor links:
This is just a one page portfolio, i want the links on the left to go to the anchor links within the page. Is there a way i can control the exact position the browser goes to when a user clicks on a link?
Right now the browser will go to where my is barely on the screen, i want it to bring it all the way to the left. does that make any sense...sorry this is wordy.

I need an easy method of adding template-like content such as headers into websites, with the following requirements: I want to be able to change the contents of the template and reapply it to all the pages which use it, and I DO NOT want to use anything that requires a script be run every time the page loads. That is to say, I'd like to be able to take care of this before I even upload the webpages and not rely on php includes and the like.

It would seem to me that this is something lots of people might want do do. Even if not fully automated it should make static html sites easier to maintain and dynamic websites more efficient, but I haven't had much luck finding any information, much less a development environment which would automate it. Plenty of stuff lets you apply a template, but I don't think any of what I've looked at lets one change the template and then reapply it.

Every google search I do looking for information on this dumps me at Smarty's doorstep, but if I'm reading their website properly, Smarty is a caching engine and something constantly running, which is close to the exact opposite of what I want. If I recall correctly, dreamweaver does something like what I'm looking for, but I don't really want to buy proprietary software, especially not when I'd mostly be paying for wysiwyg functionality I don't need or want.

Am I missing something very obvious (don't say frames, please), is this common and I'm not reading program helpfiles properly (doh), am I mistaken that anyone would want to do this, or what?

I've been wondering about web-related technology certifications that might be worth my while. yes, I know experience is invaluable when it comes to enhancing a resume, but I also wouldn't mind having a solid certification in a web-related area. I'm not referring to web design degrees as I already have an associates degree (interactive multimedia) and I had been working towards a second web dev degree that may someday lead to a bachelors. so my questions on web certifications:

are there organizations/sites that are more highly regarded than others for what they have to offer?
what are some good ones?
what are some reputable/credible web certifications out there that you have, or know of?

I've only done a brief search so far, but I have noticed the HTML certification that w3schools has to offer:
http://www.w3schools.com/cert/cert_html.asp

any thoughts on that one?

thanks in advance for any input, advice, comments, etc..

Hi, I'm trying to add a dynamic timeline to my website temp location: http://members.shaw.ca/lord_breetai/sakura

Basically I'm looking for something that would automatically sort events based on time allow me to color code, and preferably put in graphics, and spit out html code.

Sure I could code something myself but it would be a pain to put events in sequence and such... and I'm just not that patient.

Since this is a timeline for a video game/animation series, events are subject to change as Sega deems fit and it would be too hard to keep up with a scratch built webpage. I've been trying to google something up, but havn't found anything good yet. If someone can help that would be great.

Money is a big issue here, so something open source or free would be good. Or something cheap, less then 100 USD.

Vanilin MIDI Keyboard celebrates it's 2nd anniversary!
The program I wrote has several advantages over many other virtual keyboards.



Vanilin MIDI Keyboard intercepts all keystrokes on your
computer, so it can be played in minimized state.

MAJOR FEATURES:
+ play it in any window
+ pedal key (CTRL or SHIFT)
+ resizable
+ skinnable

NOT SUCH MAJOR FEATURES:
+ customizable keyboard layout
+ vertical keyboard mode
+ zoom in and zoom out
+ can minimize to tray
+ can be disabled

Note: as with other virtual MIDI keyboards, you need to
install a driver like Hubi's Loopback or MIDI Yoke in
order to connect this program to your sequencer.

MIDI Yoke driver for Windows NT4, 2000, XP (43 KB):

My National Security Letter Gag Order

Friday, March 23, 2007; Page A17

It is the policy of The Washington Post not to publish anonymous pieces. In this case, an exception has been made because the author -- who would have preferred to be named -- is legally prohibited from disclosing his or her identity in connection with receipt of a national security letter. The Post confirmed the legitimacy of this submission by verifying it with the author's attorney and by reviewing publicly available court documents.


The Justice Department's inspector general revealed on March 9 that the FBI has been systematically abusing one of the most controversial provisions of the USA Patriot Act: the expanded power to issue "national security letters." It no doubt surprised most Americans to learn that between 2003 and 2005 the FBI issued more than 140,000 specific demands under this provision -- demands issued without a showing of probable cause or prior judicial approval -- to obtain potentially sensitive information about U.S. citizens and residents. It did not, however, come as any surprise to me.


Three years ago, I received a national security letter (NSL) in my capacity as the president of a small Internet access and consulting business. The letter ordered me to provide sensitive information about one of my clients. There was no indication that a judge had reviewed or approved the letter, and it turned out that none had. The letter came with a gag provision that prohibited me from telling anyone, including my client, that the FBI was seeking this information. Based on the context of the demand -- a context that the FBI still won't let me discuss publicly -- I suspected that the FBI was abusing its power and that the letter sought information to which the FBI was not entitled.

Rather than turn over the information, I contacted lawyers at the American Civil Liberties Union, and in April 2004 I filed a lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of the NSL power. I never released the information the FBI sought, and last November the FBI decided that it no longer needs the information anyway. But the FBI still hasn't abandoned the gag order that prevents me from disclosing my experience and concerns with the law or the national security letter that was served on my company. In fact, the government will return to court in the next few weeks to defend the gag orders that are imposed on recipients of these letters.

Living under the gag order has been stressful and surreal. Under the threat of criminal prosecution, I must hide all aspects of my involvement in the case -- including the mere fact that I received an NSL -- from my colleagues, my family and my friends. When I meet with my attorneys I cannot tell my girlfriend where I am going or where I have been. I hide any papers related to the case in a place where she will not look. When clients and friends ask me whether I am the one challenging the constitutionality of the NSL statute, I have no choice but to look them in the eye and lie.

I resent being conscripted as a secret informer for the government and being made to mislead those who are close to me, especially because I have doubts about the legitimacy of the underlying investigation.

The inspector general's report makes clear that NSL gag orders have had even more pernicious effects. Without the gag orders issued on recipients of the letters, it is doubtful that the FBI would have been able to abuse the NSL power the way that it did. Some recipients would have spoken out about perceived abuses, and the FBI's actions would have been subject to some degree of public scrutiny. To be sure, not all recipients would have spoken out; the inspector general's report suggests that large telecom companies have been all too willing to share sensitive data with the agency -- in at least one case, a telecom company gave the FBI even more information than it asked for. But some recipients would have called attention to abuses, and some abuse would have been deterred.

I found it particularly difficult to be silent about my concerns while Congress was debating the reauthorization of the Patriot Act in 2005 and early 2006. If I hadn't been under a gag order, I would have contacted members of Congress to discuss my experiences and to advocate changes in the law. The inspector general's report confirms that Congress lacked a complete picture of the problem during a critical time: Even though the NSL statute requires the director of the FBI to fully inform members of the House and Senate about all requests issued under the statute, the FBI significantly underrepresented the number of NSL requests in 2003, 2004 and 2005, according to the report.

I recognize that there may sometimes be a need for secrecy in certain national security investigations. But I've now been under a broad gag order for three years, and other NSL recipients have been silenced for even longer. At some point -- a point we passed long ago -- the secrecy itself becomes a threat to our democracy. In the wake of the recent revelations, I believe more strongly than ever that the secrecy surrounding the government's use of the national security letters power is unwarranted and dangerous. I hope that Congress will at last recognize the same thing.

Hi there!!

I'm building a website for a friend, and he wants the main text area to be scrollable, so that the page never has to scroll or change size. I'm using a combination of HTML tables and CSS, and would rather not use frames for this. Is there any way to set a box in a table to scroll? I've tried using the "overflow: auto;" option on my stylesheet, but that doesn't seem to work.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
