Strange Problem.
Date: 05/24/06 (PHP Community) Keywords: php, browser, web
Ok I just upgraded to PHP5 and started using GD. I have a function that takes an image name, a name for a thumbnail, a width and a height it then creates a thumbnail.
I got the function from here. http://icant.co.uk/articles/phpthumbnails/
I only use the createthumb function and its in a file all by itself. I plug in the variables at the start and then run it from the command line. It works like a champ.
However when I put the function into my functions file and try to run it from the web application it fails. Even if I plug in the vars at the start of the function it fails with this error:
[client 192.168.40.254] PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function imagecreatefromjpeg()
How is it that the function is undefined? Same server, same directory, same variables. Could it be the user? When I run from the command line I am myself but from the web browser I have different permissions. I am very confused.
Any light you all can shed on this would be great.

Are any of you familiar with Mason?
I've been given a task at work to build something basic, displaying items from a database and whatnot... and I have no idea where the hell to start! I'm just a designer who's never touched much programming...
Any tips would be helpful, or other web developper communities whether it's on LJ or a message board.
Thank you in advance.Source: http://community.livejournal.com/webdesign/1114204.html

user controls and weird shit
Date: 05/25/06 (Asp Dot Net) Keywords: java, web
Hi,
I am dynamically loading a user control onto my web form. My web form has a few buttons on it. These buttons are not firing their onclick events, they aren't even doing a postback. When I go to view source, I see this:
***onclick="javascript:WebForm_DoPostBackWithOptions(new WebForm_PostBackOptions("cmdTopSave", "", true, "", "", false, false))"***
I looked at some other pages that used user controls and they had the same thing. My pages without user controls do not contain the above code. I am assuming the reason my button click events are not doing a server side postback is because the onclick event is wired to this javascript function.
Does anyone know why this function is wired to my onclick event? How to override/delete it so that I can have a normal server postback??
Thanks.Source: http://community.livejournal.com/aspdotnet/67808.html

C# book recommendations
Date: 05/25/06 (C Sharp) Keywords: programming, web
Hi all,
I'm 3 days into a 5 day "essential .net 2.0" class and I'm looking for a book that covers the language a) well b) with simple examples and c) explains some of the .net weirdness. I've got a few years of C++ and other OOP, web programming, etc. It's not that I'm new to programming, but some of the things we're discussing in class seem bass-ackwards to me, in terms of how they're implemented.
I'd love a C#/.NET book similar to the "head first design patterns" style of writing. is there anything like that, that you'd recommend?

Graphic design
Date: 05/26/06 (WebDesign) Keywords: css, html, web
I've taken quite a few classes on web design in school, and just wrapped up a class in XHTML. The classes do a great job of teaching you coding, the planning and design stages, and how to make the website clean, well coded, and not a pile of crap. But what most classes don't teach you is how to make your website look good.
I am not a good graphic designer. I used to fancy myself as being a decent artist, I used to draw a lot of still life, abstract, b&w pattern, and Escher-ish optical illusion pieces, but either I've lost my magic touch, or art on a computer is far different than art on paper, because I just can't work up the creativity to think up good designs for webpages.
Currently I want to make one or more webpages to practice my design skills with xhtml and css, but I can't think of what I want my site to look like, or what theme I want it to have.
My question for all you perfessional designers, those who do this for a living, is how do you figure out a design for a page? How do you determine what colors, what pictures, what borders to use? How do you decide where the pictures go on the site? How do you decide where to put the site navigation? How do you figure out the theme of the site?Source: http://community.livejournal.com/webdesign/1116148.html

Help with a line of script
Date: 05/26/06 (WebDesign) Keywords: web
I know my way around scripting only enough to tweak already-made scripts to my needs, and only some basic tweaks.
I'm currently working with a pre-written form mailer that uses the following line to trigger a user error message:$error_required = "[p]You did not fill some of the required fields in properly. Please go back, refresh the form page, and try again.[/p]";
(carrats replaced with brackets because the "code" tag isn't working... not sure how to do that)
Because of the ridiculous way the website was written by another firm (it uses three different includes interspersed with partial table tags to make the menus), I need to point the error to a new page in order for me to be able to format it correctly.
Can someone help me with the language I could use to turn that $error_required line into a link to a new page instead of just text?
Thanks!
ETA:
Here's the rest of the code, if something needs to be changed here instead:
for($checkreq = 0; $checkreq < count($req); $checkreq++) {
if (empty($_POST[$req[$checkreq]])) {
if ($use_headers == 0){
echo $header_file;
}
else {
include($header_file);
}
echo "[h2]Error[/h2]" . $error_required;
if ($use_footers == 0) {
echo $footer_file;
}
else {
include ($footer_file);
}
exit;
} //endif
} //endforSource: http://community.livejournal.com/webdesign/1115215.html

Who is the web user?
Date: 05/29/06 (PHP Community) Keywords: php, templates, web, linux
** sorted, thanks.
Hi,
I have a Linux server that I am slowly learning how to use. A friend of mine who is very good with Linux not available for lots of questions set it up for me. I am at the moment trying to install Smarty Templates. I have a question about part of the installation instructions that I have copied below.
In our example, the document root is /web/www.domain.com/docs and the
web server username is "nobody". We will keep our Smarty files under
/web/www.domain.com/smarty
Who is the web server username that nobody is referring to?
Another question I have is about the location of the Smarty files. The installation docs suggest /usr/local/lib/php/Smarty/
Why that directory particularly? There was no php directory in /usr/local/lib/. I set one up and copied the files as instructed. I am just curious about that choice of location.

Portfolio
Date: 05/29/06 (Web Development) Keywords: web
Question about portfolio's for web development professionals:
Do you have a portfolio?
I am primarily a back-end developer, but I'm finding that many jobs require portfolios, something which I lack.
If you do, in fact, have a portfolio, what kind of items are in your portfolio?
I understand that code snippets might be a good start in a portfolio, however, I have been working for a privately-owned company for the last few years and all of my work is their property. I do not feel totally comfortable showing code that I have written while being employed with my current company.

Apple/MOV/Quicktime sucks the big one!!
Date: 05/30/06 (Computer Help) Keywords: web
Ok I'm highly PO'ed here. I can't play an MOV file. I have quicktime and about 20 other video players. They can all play Rammstein videos in .mov that I've downloaded. But it won't play a movie trailer and no one will share their screen caps from it, so all I wanted was just to make my own screen caps since people are too stuck up to share simple pictures, but noooooooooooooo, it doesn't play! I'm tired of waiting 20 minutes just to view a web page, staying up until 1am to download yet another video player that's supposed to play MOV's all to have NOTHING that on the face of the earth that can play it!! How come I can't play this MOV file????? >:(

Classes and Include Files
Date: 05/31/06 (Asp Dot Net) Keywords: asp, sql, web
I am new to ASP.NET... jumping on board with 2.0.
I am from a VBScript ASP Background the last 6 years.
Here is my problem, in the past when I needed to reuse some code I just popped her into an include file and kept using it over and over again.
Now that I am in ASP.NET, I am attempting to teach myself how to use a Class file or determine the correct way of doing what I had done in the past, but so far I have yet to A) Make it work and/or B) Find documentation.
I grabbed 2 separate books on ASP.NET and they only gloss over the uses of Class files. On the other hand they were immensely instrumental with getting me almost up to speed.
For instance, I want to reuse a connection string and SQL Statement in various areas of a project. I want to declare this somehow 1 time and then call it in all of my Subs or Functions that need it. Sure ASP.NET 2.0 will allow me to do this with the GridView and the Web.Config file, but I am really looking to avoid this.
I have TONS of classic ASP pages I need to, over time, fix up and port to ASP.NET and it would help if I have much of the work done, by eventually pointing them to this 1 file.
Any links that someone can post would be a massive help.
I am also looking for documentation on how to use Master Pages.
Thank you again.Source: http://community.livejournal.com/aspdotnet/69254.html

How do you find freelance work?
Date: 05/31/06 (WebDesign) Keywords: web
I apologize if this topic has been discussed before.. but for any of you freelancers out there, where and how do you find work? I've done a few websites, but they're all for friends, people I know, company I work for, etc. I got one job off of Craigslist for graphic design that paid well and will be an ongoing thing, but I don't want to rely on Craigslist postings for design work. I've had several people recommend me to others, but for one reason or another those deals always fall through. So what else can I do? Anyone have any good tips/advice?
