Hi marquise
A few reasons to have a website for your business.

It can attract potential visitors to your club.
It can provide information to current customers.
I like to view and compare...

I was just wondering what people bought if they decide to buy a second PC laptop or whatever?

Do you have 2 more or less the same - so one is a backup to the other? Do you go for a server...

Can anyone recommend a laptop that I can carry around but has a spec that will take Dreamweaver / Apache / Mysql. Probably Photoshop.

It must be able to connect to public networks on the train...

Yes that sounds good to me. I used to do some selling - quite sucessfully - so I was once used to going up to strangers and asking questions.
And I expect just thinking up the questions helps you...

I am thinking of setting up a web build / consultancy business. I thought to get up to speed on lamp technology, CSSs, XML, JavaScript .
However looking at start your own business advice it says -...

Used this ^[[:alnum:]]*$

and it was happy with A-Za-z0-9 but pattern match failed with
spaces and other char such as _

Also - I did want to exclude upper case so that was fine - thaks for...

Thanks for that.
So preg_match uses the same patterns as ereg but just puts them between / /.

If that is true what is the difference between them?
I suppose not to worry for now.
Too much to...

Thanks for the input. Will look at preg_match. However the suggested pattern does not work for me as the pattern must ensure there are no spaces and this one accepts spaces.

the pattern must...

I want to check that a value passed to my script ONLY contains a to z, 0 to 9 or _. That means no spaces.
This seems to work but I am new to this so want to check.

$string = 'hello hello';...

ok - not to worry. If I give form flds names such as name1 name2 etc I can process these in a for loop in PHP - see Chap 1 PHP and MySQL Web Development.
Dont think this can be done in HTML -...

Is there any way in HTML to put your form data in an array.

I have a line of information which repeats down the page and it needs to go in an array for validation.

Do I have to give each form...

Hi everyone
I have updated the site.

Comments have been very useful.

Many thanks Sue

I want to display a different page depending on what happens after some processing.

I assume that I cant call a different php file from within a php file unless I redirect at the very start of the...

Thanks a lot for the tips - I will go and look at that. Must finish the site off.

6stringGeek - what does +1 mean? Maybe when I go to do this it will make sense.

Thx again. Sue

use firefox as your browser and download firebug. When this is on it lets you see how long each component of your page is taking to download.
Cant think it would be the css file but even if it...

Thanks - I had looked already and it seemed to explain no more than was obvious from the name. However I have just gone back and looked again and there are some posts on performance testing which...

Soz - You need to read the first posts on this from years ago to make sense of my reply above. Just got carried away and replied at the end of page 1 before I realised there were all those extra...

I could definiteley explain custom functions to a frog and after you had taught the frog to use a computer we would both be famous!

And that is the result of writing articles - not necessarily...

Trying to find out the practical difference between require and require_once.
Had a page with the menu twice - so either
require("menu.php") twice
OR
require_once("menu.php") twice.

I...

Thanks for looking.

Yes it has too much whitespace at the bottom - I have put 500 pixels of padding at the bottom so can reduce it. However the original mistake was to have a white central column...

Thanks for commenting on my website.

I did mess around a bit with the colors as the first pass was a bit hit and miss. I have a feeling I tried blue for the menu and it made it too much the same....

I think the scroll like website is much better.

And did you write the stories? - I read the one about the wolf building up his muscles and being mean to his bro. Read it right to the end - really...

thanks all. I will read through some books and see how I get on with it. Have also joined Lynda.com so will go through some of the tutorials there.
Sue

That is what I thought it would be good for. If I am on my own doing websites then I need to be able to speed up what I do - so I just wondered what other people thought.

Thanks for replying. sue

This is a plain vanilla site - just css and html. No javascript even.

But it is the first site I have done apart from my own so views / tips would be useful.
