so for a class at school Im learning java and our assignment is to make a window with a pale green background and all i can make is a green one whats the code to change a color or make a new one?

I want to build a badass system but I really don't know how, I already picked out my speakers, below I will show you what I had in mind.

These will go on the outside
http://www.amazon.co...83468143&sr=1-1

These will go on the inside of the above ones
http://www.amazon.co...cp_ob_e_title_1

These will go on the inside of the above ones
http://www.amazon.co...pd_bxgy_e_img_c

And these will go in the center
http://www.amazon.co...pd_bxgy_e_img_b

Am I choosing the best speakers? I wanted to put them all side by side, is that a good idea or will it make them all sound like crap?


secondly, if I buy all these speakers, what would be the best thing to power them? I'd like an amp with a built in CD player if possible.

Thanks, please reply cause I really wanna make this happen

First off if you are looking for a way to get rid of a RAT or worm this is not the right place
you need to make a little bit of future preparation for this:
install linux Ubuntu on to your computer via wubi (google )
1. find where the virus is normally it will be hiding in your root director or system folders you can also use task manager to find it by right clicking the process
2. boot in to ubuntu
3. go to the file and sent it the the "trash"
4. empty your trash can
5. boot back into windows
6. use a virus scanner like anti-malwarebytes to search for any left over registry keys or files

Just a quick question about the mycents thing were are the credits? I was looking around for were they were listed and i couldnt find anything >.<

hey im scruppy and....um.... *awkward silence* yeah...anyways this seems like a great forum and I hope to have a good time here

A haiku i wrote -

among the shadows
is where you think i still creep
that used to be true.

i never used to know
until i listened to you
its so confusing.

I know the mistake
yet now there is something more
i still gotta learn.

I just got a idea for a new forum game, based on the thread "I love it when..". This one could help us know secret things about each other

It's a game where people share their favorite..(something). It goes like this -

The Rules

First, I'll start off by saying a line "What's your favorite ice cream?" or something like that. The next person, it could be anyone, has to post the answer to the question, and at the BOTTOM, a another question. So, it looks like this -

Quote

The question could be answered by anyone, you can't ask one person to answer it.

OK, lets start.

What's your favorite song to sing in the shower?

So, following the recent PHP vs. ASP topic (where there has also been some talk on Ruby on Rails and Python) I've decided to also make another one, where you declare your favourite Content Management System.

Now, since I've posted a few already in the previously mentioned topic, I'll list them here again as mahesh2k suggested:

1. Wordpress is probably my favourite CMS, easy-to-install, easy-to-use and has a large community behind it. It also has extensive documentation ( http://codex.wordpress.org/Main_Page ) which will be of much help when you decide to use it for your CMS of choice (believe me, you will choose it after a while)

2. Site Managr CMS (that's a Web 2.0 name ) - Looks like the old Wordpress, seems to have interesting features (Events, more extensive Analytics), built entirely on CodeIgniter. The Demo page ( http://designelement...index.php/admin ) is not working, unfortunately.

3. MediaCore Video / Podcasting CMS will be interesting to all you podcasters out there, free and "fresh out of the oven." It has features to pull data from { insert_service_name_here } to your blog, and an extensive documentation (reminds of Wordpress a bit).

4. Stacey App File CMS doesn't use databases for pulling content to the user but literal files and, therefore, cannot enable commenting on your blog. It's not a problem, though, because you can easily make the commenting system using a service like Disqus. Built on PHP.

5. I don't know, just seemed right to have five list items. Perhaps Cushy CMS, which doesn't have to be installed on your server but just uses classes to edit particular HTML elements. Not suitable for a blog. Free to use.

So, there you have it - five CMS examples, but I'm sure (or I hope ) you can suggest even more. What's your favourite?

Update, 6 hours later:

Of course, how did I forget...

6. Joomla, also an Open-source CMS, probably one of the more complicated ones to use (at least in my experience, it is). Their website seems a bit cluttered, but overall it's still an OK product.

7. Drupal, community plumbing. Free, but I have never used it so cannot speak for its quality. Anyone have comments?

8. ExpressionEngine, only its "core" version is free for personal projects (I believe), otherwise offers some cool stuff but in my opinion is not better than Wordpress. Some of the big names in Web/Print/Graphic design use it, though, like Jason Santa Maria and Veerle Piters.

9. Speaking of big-name designers, Elliot Jay Stocks uses a hosted solution for his blog nowadays (it used to be powered by Wordpress), called "Harmony App". He's already said a few words about it on his blog ( http://elliotjaystoc...erfect-harmony/ ), but it's important to note how it now seems as if the CMS came out of beta testing. I personally don't see the future in already hosted blog solutions, but would be really happy if Elliot and Harmony App proved me wrong.

Update #2, est. 1 hour after previous update

And, of course, we also have...

10. Magento is cool if you intend to sell stuff on your website (that is, eCommerce). I'm not a big fan of their site (barely found pricing and all the first time there), but I think there's no better way of selling stuff on line than Magento. If you're a "skilled individual" (I think they've put it like that) you can download and manage the free version, but otherwise you're going to have to pay a subscription fee in order to receive all support. If you'd like to learn about programming for Magento, I suggest you check out a tutorial series by NetTuts where they teach you just that ( http://net.tutsplus....ento-ecommerce/ ).

Update #3, est. 3 hours after previous update

A coincidence perhaps, but this is yet another new CMS I've found in the recent few days:

11. Refinery CMS is a Ruby on Rails-based CMS and a fairly fresh one for that matter. Seems to be very nice and I intend to further see how it works as I learn more about Ruby.

Dear people I hope can help me.

Hope you are well.

I bought A HP Mini 110 Laptop in Buenos Aires maybe around 8 months ago.
Anyway, I didn-t register my Microsoft Office Programmes and I have now used my 50 offline Word documents...

My problem is that my laptop wont let me register. When it asks for the key, it says its incorrect. I take it that the registration number is the sticker on the base of the laptop entitled Product Key? ...The laptop is legit by the way. Can you help me out on this and also is there another way that I can try to input it, do you have instructions. Microsoft are looking for 72 euro to email them about it....NO CHANCE!!

Many thanks and I look forward to hearing from you as soon as possible
Best regards,

Just wanted to ask for some help with my site regarding CSS Stylesheet. If you go to my site and see that there is a menu list on the left hand side. I wanted to create another box under that one the same width. The contents of my CSS Stylesheet is below, anyone know how to do this? As I have tried but am unable to do so.

I also previously got help to set up that current menu so it is embedded using a particular code that links to another file so I only have to change that particular file in order to change the menu thus not having to change every page on the site when I want to change the menu. It would be great if I could set this up the same. But for now I just need to know how to do it.

I thought I would post this here as the help I have had previously with this forum was great and I appreciate everyone's help, thanks.

Here is one for the puter geeks. I am presently using Windows XP. I have programs that are loading on "startup" that I want not to load on startup. I have found them listed in the System Information, Software Environment under Startup Programs. When I was using Windows 98 I could edit them at this location. Now I am lost as to where I can go to edit these programs. Can somebody tell me where to edit the startup programs? My Start Menu, Startup folder is currently empty. Where are these little devils located then?

Should a game be extremely difficult and unforgiving, or relaxing and not challenging? I imagine this is a much debated subject for gamers and game designers and I'm not sure how I feel about it. On one hand, there is no doubt that an unforgiving game with few save points makes the game more intense and enjoyable. A fun test of intelligence even. In difficult shooters (such as the old Rainbow Six games, SWAT 4, or Full Spectrum Warrior) I take my time and check my corners and treat my character or team like real people, who's lives are fragile. Fun experience. In strategy games, it makes a game much more interesting if there are consequences to actions. I have to contemplate whether to attack or not. Attacking too early could be a fatal mistake that I should consider carefully.

While the lack of saving does make a game more intense and exciting, that is only when things are going well. I don't know about anyone else, but I am not flawless in my gaming skill. Suffering a stupid, meaningless death seconds from a checkpoint or an accidental death to a game bug (ever throw a grenade to have it bounce off your cover and into your face instead of over? What kind of moron would throw a grenade like that?) or a wrong mouse click. and having to redo 15-20 minutes of a level over and over begins to get extremely frustrating and becomes a complete waste of time. I often find myself so angry I could throw my computer / controller out the window and just keep playing it over and over trying to succeed so I won't be ticked off anymore.

When I play strategy games, like Civilization, it is so much more enjoyable to play realistically, accepting the consequences of a not so successful war, or to live with an unexpected enemy attack. However, I find it nearly impossible to live with a set back after an hour or more of planning, my cities being razed or my army being wiped out, when I can just load up a save and change the situation with God-like powers. Thus, I end up playing a completely boring and easy game because the option to "Cheat" is so easy.

So I really can't decide. Is it better to have a game that's very challenging and unforgiving, or a game that is so easy you could play in your sleep? Sure, getting stressed because of a game sucks, but isn't a game that's too easy kind of boring?

I'm kind of pleased at the switching trend from manual/quick saves to checkpoints. They seem to work pretty well in most cases, and it relieves me from the task of obsessive saving around every turn. Sometimes it kind of sucks not being able to manually save before a part you have trouble with, but I guess nothing is perfect...

Hi there

Thanks

I was wondering how much would Eb games give me if i sold my ps2 with 2 controllers, 2 memory cards, and 25 games, and my original x box modded with 4 games, and no controller?.

This might be one of the funniest things I've ever seen.
Some language but its not what you think it is.
Advertising for a movie at its best.

Hello everyone. I don't know if you've seen any of the gameplay on the newest Call of Duty game coming out November 9th, but its looking to be a pretty nasty game. One thing that's been my favorite out of anything in the CoD Series would have to be Call of Duty WaW's Nazi Zombies. I mean whats more fun then mowing down hordes and hordes of zombies. Upgrading guns and so forth. Well Black Ops is bringing Zombies back up to the plate. I for one can't wait to see what they have new to offer. WaW had huge death lightning wolves. So who knows what going to be happening.
Anyone up for new Kill Streaks? There are some confirmed as of now. RC Car Bomb. Yea RC... You drive the little remote control car around find some people on the ground and blow them up. I think its only 2-3 kills to get this so I hope it doesn't get to spammy. Also there's a kind of Predator Missle type thing it sounds like it will be just like it but named differently.
So yea the new CoD is starting to look like its worth the money. November 9th (Going to the midnight launch ) anyone else getting it? Either way I'd buy this game just for the Zombies!

________________________________________________

On the back cover of the 1994 Norton anthology Postmodern American Poetry, a commentary claims that the collection is the first to “fully represent the movements of American avant-garde poetry.” Beginning with a poem by Charles Olson from 1953, the anthology contains 411 poems by 103 different poets, from the Beats, the New York School and the Projectivists to a general “array of poetry written since 1975.” The selection ranges from John Cage, Charles Bukowski and Jack Kerouac to Denise Levertov, Robert Creeley and Amiri Baraka to Jerome Rothenberg, Susan Howe, Bruce Andrews and Lyn Hejinian. The last entries are from 1992; thus the volume covers a time span of just short of forty years, the forty years between the two Baha’i Holy Years of 1953 and 1992. For the purposes of this prose-poem contemporary poetry is taken as the period of the poetry found in this anthology 1953 to 1992 and beyond during the years of my poetic output: 1992 to 2010.

I took an interest in Ruediger Heinze’s review of this Norton anthology in his: ‘The Dream of the Unified Field’: Originality, Influence, the Idea of a National Literature and Contemporary American Poetry,’ in the European Journal of American Studies, Volume 2, 2008. My interest was aroused since it was in the same year 1992, an auspicious juncture in the history of the Faith I had been associated with for nearly 40 years, that I began to take the writing of poetry seriously after 40 years of playing around its literary edges in a host of different ways.1

In the western tradition of poetry the poet who stands out, who is successful, who gains a reputation that lasts, must be a strong-willed individual whose creative genius allows him or her to write with and against an overwhelming tradition, altering it and thus leaving the imprint of their originality on the genealogy of great literature. Who knows whether my poetry, my writing, would come to stand out? Indeed, the very aspiration toward such a distinctiveness, such a distinction, seems somewhat pretentious.

One defining characteristic of poetry across the spectrum of over 200 nations in our planetized world, is its diversity, its inability to be pigeonholed or represented by one or two or many more major figures and models. There is no binding consensus on what is essential in poetry right now. There may never be in the millennia to come. Who knows? This superabundant complexity may seem maddening to those whose business it is to impose rational categorization upon disorder – namely critics and theorists – but to poets like myself this situation feels like an entirely welcome and delightful state of affairs.2-Ron Price with thanks to 1Universal House of Justice, Ridvan Message, 1992 and 2Ruediger Heinze’s review of the 1994 Norton anthology Postmodern American Poetry: ‘The Dream of the Unified Field’: Originality, Influence, the Idea of a National Literature and Contemporary American Poetry,’ in the European Journal of American Studies, Volume 2, 2008.

No single style here in this poetry of 40
years….but some ongoing resistance to
any mainstream ideology:1 my work can
find its home here in the extension of a
collection of poetry than began with the
inception on Earth of God’s Kingdom!!2

I tap into many international, historical,
national, local, religious, psychological,
sociological & popular culture voices--
defining my utterance within what may
seem like a jangle of many influences!!3

A generation of poets has been raised in
incestuous creative writing programs at
universities where students are taught the
mechanics of writing poetry and they try
to avoid taking risks—an imperative for
getting that passing grade, the assessment.
And so creativity, finding one’s individual
voice and making one’s words new is not
found.4 I have found mine and I share the
voice in cyberspace in nanoseconds across
a space measured in trillions of megabytes.

2 From a Baha’i perspective the Kingdom of God on Earth can be seen to begin in 1953 with the completion of the mother temple in Chicago.
3 “No poet since Whitman has tapped into so many distinctly American voices and, at the same time, so preserved his utterance against the jangle of influences,” Susan M. Schultz Schultz, ed., The Tribe of John: Ashbery and Contemporary Poetry, University of Alabama Press, Tuscaloosa, 1995, p.1.
4 Ezra Pound(1885-1972), a major figure of the early Modernist movement in poetry, emphasized that poets in their work should “make it new.”

HI, I have tried all types of eyeliners to accent my 'invisible' eyes. THe only thing that stays on me(but looks chunky not smooth & is not even an eyeliner), is Maybelline waterproof mascara & I put it on with an eyeliner brush. I have brown hair & eyes & very short thin eyelashes that hardly show. I can't use black, because it looks too harsh on me Can anyone suggest an eyeliner that will stay on til washed off with an eye makeup remover. My eyes water so much that the liner often times washes away.. Is there anything like a stain, that they have for lips, in an eyeliner?

THanks JOan

Hi there,

I have been a paypal client many years and its the only payment gateway I use online as I feel it is the best.
Today I find my Business account has been suspended otherwise known as limited as they only allow 1 personal account and 1 business account. Well here is the thing I do agree with having one of each though what happens if you live with other people in your house who also have paypal and access using the same IP. My mother and farther both have paypal I have my own personal one and a business one though they seem to think they are all mine.

I have also just found out I am unable to unsuspended the account though tommorrow I will be on the phone to them and come down on them like a ton of bricks!

Anything happened to your pay-pal account recently?

okay so i bought this computer. it is an hp mini 1135ca netbook pc. okay well me being as stupid as i am i didnt pay attention to detail and the region its from and the laguage it comes with is french. i dont speak french. my computer gets here tomorrow and i need some help figuring out what the hel im going to do to fix this. any help is soooo much appreciated.

Ok here it goes:
Take any 5 consecutive numbers and write them down vertically on a sheet of paper.
i.e.:
1
2
3
4
5

Now going down the line, square these guys and write the answer to the left:
1*1=1
2*2=4
3*3=9
4*4=16
5*5= 25

Now, going down the line again, take the smaller total and subtract it from the total below it, and write it between the 2 to the right, like so:
1
>3
4
>5
9
>7
16
>9
25

And do it one more time with those answers: and you will always come up with the answer 2.

I am not sure why this happens, but here is the next cool part (Don't ask me why I thought of this in the shower, I have no idea why)

Take another set of numbers, they have to be consecutive and cube them and do the same process, the answer will always come out as 6. (You may have to increase the number of consecutive numbers, in order to subtract all the way out to the common answer)

Ready for the next cool part, want the answer to if you did those consecutive number to the power of 4? The answer will always be 24. Want to know how I know that? All you have to do, is take the subtraction answer of set 1 and multiply it times the power of the next set.
So like this:

Set 1, the set you multiplied by a power of 2, it's answer is 2
Set 2, the set you multiplied by a power of 3, it's answer is 6 (2*3)
Set 3, the set you multiplied by a power of 4, it's answer is 24 (6*4)
Set 4, the set you would multiply times a power of 5, it's answer will be 120 (24*5)

And then after doing a bunch of those, and subtracting all those answer out, somewhere down the line it all comes back to 1,2,3,4,5,6,...etc.

Weird huh?

Explain that one for me. Or if you need me to, I'll do it on paper and scan it in, if it's confusing to you guys and gals.

Well, this is a really strange thing that has been happening to me ever since I can remember. I usually have these GREAT ideas that just pop into my heads at random times and I tell my family, friends or anyone that is just around in the moment. I'm pretty sure this happens to almost everyone... but what happens next is the weird part.

So, I have these ideas and then a few months.. or even a few years later -- its INVENTED! Some crazy scientists in Geneva or some other place have the same thing that I thought of! It's so crazy! I remember the time that I thought of Wireless energy and I had a WHOLE FREAKING plan about how everything is connected and that there are huge "power" stations that emit energy and suck in energy too. Cars pick up those signals, so no more gas! (I'll explain more about this later in a thread in the Theory section). This was waaaaay back when I was in 2rd or 3rd grade and then sometime in 2009 i learn that its now possible and heck, they have companies based on it now. Gooood Luck Ryan Tseng, because I'm coming after you!

I have a few more ideas like this that have been invented! Did this happen to anybody else? Or do many of 6 billion people have the same ideas? Or are the Russians spying on me?

So what do you think?




Graphics, Concept, and Design are a 100% original production of me.
I will release this skin on all IPB skinning websites as soon as I add some finishing touches.
As for now I just want to know what You think

I am planning on opening a business soon, but dont have the name for the company yet. Do you have ANY ideas?
My Company's business is very education oriented, i already have a name but i intend on changing it, it was Kid Squad, but since my business targets the youth ages from 8 til 18 years old, the ones aged 17 or 18 will feel offended if they where categorized under "Kid". Now the company is designed to support the healthy social and emotional development of the youth, through developing their positive behavioral skills that will lead to success in school, family, and community. 

It is composed of 3 departments, 1 ) Moral Development 2 ) Education/Tutoring 3) Essential Skills Practicum.We treat all kinds of learning disabilities, for example, ADHD, Dyslexia etc. And it is the region's ( Middle East) first company that certifies the youth in essential skills. So its pretty unique..

Either reply to this post or email me on nader.bitar88@gmail.com thx

Please do suggest to me a professional yet a catchy name ASAP

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!

Hello everybody,
I want to know making friends at work is possible or not. You can tell me making friends at work is good or bad for our job.

My opinion to this Making friends at work is dependent on the company where you are working. Suppose I am working in a company where the work load is more then making friends at such a places is impossible. It also depends on your Boss of the company and the team leader of the project. I think making friends at work is good because when you make friends at work you can ask them the questions and queries about the work and project. You can take their experience. You can share your ideas and problems with your friends at work. So I think making friends at work will help us more.

light a 2 pin bi-color LED and charge 3 capacitors (maybe 7 soon). On the LED, in one setup, it is green, when voltage is reversed, it is red. Point is, electricity can flow through it 2 ways. Due to this, everything is connected in parallel. I have a resistor connected in series to the ground pin, and a diode is connected in series to the V_cc supply. The LED can withstand the parallel ports' power and current.

Here's my question. If I remove the diode, when electricity returns to the port, will it destroy the port?

Hey people ,

I have a problem out here. I have a friend of mine rather a client of mine , his laptop got robbed at the airport . It was an Apple MacBook.

Hello!
I'm coder and owner of RSPS(RuneScape Private Server) called Misthalin.
I've been flamed a lot for leaving original RuneScape storyline and building something custom, almost a new game.

I'm currently working on: "Fairy System", "Rebirth" and converting 594-604 model header to 317.

28th of July
Today I wrote ending for a new quest called "Rebirth". I'm going to write around 20% of the quest here for you to judge/rate/hate.

I'm also adding a base for pet fairies today. I'll post pictures as I process.

Hello!

My name is Rick Mitchell and today I'm going to tell you about this theory. This theory is supposed to proof; that human didn't create Egyptian pyramids.

Khufu Pyramid

• Made of 2,300,000 building blocks.
  
• On average, each block weights over 3,000 Kilograms(kg).
  
• From what we know, it was built for about 23-26 years.
  
• From writings we know that they used scaffolds made of sand.
  
• The pyramid is geometrically around 96% perfect.
  
• 16000-20000 workers working during Nile floods.
  
• Most of building blocks came from as far as 150 kilometres(km).

As seen above, we can find one point of interest on row four and another on row five on the list. If they used tempoarily scaffolds made of sand, the sand would've tightened up so much it would've became as hard as rock because of dragging all that weight over them and nearly impossible to remove. Pyramids are also geometrically 95-97% perfect. That'd be achievement even with modern technology.

What else? Let me teach you some mathematics.

2,300,000[blocks] / (26[Years] * 200[Working days per year]) = 442.307... = 442 [Blocks per day]

As you see above, they would have had to transfer about 442 blocks per day to get it built in 26 years.

442[Blocks per day] * 3,000[Weight in kilograms] = 1,326,000 [Kilograms transferred per day]

Where I live, trucks are limited to 16,000 kilograms weight... Even if their boats could've actually have carried 16,000 kilograms, their speed would've been something between 15 and 30 kilometres per hour. The blocks were brought from 150 kilometres far...

With what I've given you, you should be able to tell that human beings did NOT create pyramids. This is only theory, but theres another billion things that support my findings.

I have been a theist, and debated theism with many people over the decades, including some very knowledge and intelligent people.
One issue that is never addressed to my satisfaction is the basic problem of evil.
Simply put - why would any benign God allow bad things to happen to good people?

It is a very straightforward question, yet theologians wrap themselves up in semantic knots trying to answer it - and always either fudge or fail.

A common answer - that humans have free-will and evil goes with the territory - is a fudge. It is perfectly possible for free-will to exist without natural disasters that kill children, infants and other obviously 'innocent' people. Catholics would say that the infant is not innocent because of original sin, but that doesn't explain why they would be killed by God...

Epicurus (philosopher_) summed up the problem nicely:

hi trappers,
i have a real problem with my browsers i guess, therefor i post this topic in here. but i don't know what it is? i hope you could help me in here.

i noticed recently, about a week ago or more that i can't see all new posts and topics, i usually use "view new contents", but now i either see some of the posts or see nothing at all, i keep on getting this message "Sorry, no new content found.".

and two days ago, i noticed that i can't see voting in Sotw. even when there are voting but i still see null voting.

i tried switch browsers, clearing cache and restarting browsers but nothing changed. i know it is a problem in my browsers ( i use opera and firefox). because i checked, everyone else could see new posts and the voting. and i could see them if i entered the forums as a guest!!!

so maybe it is a problem in java script in my browsers, or something i really don't know . it is so annoying, because these days i have to check others posts from entering their profiles.

i really hope someone could give me a solution or anything could help. thank you in advance.

hai!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Some of you may know me, but some of you may not, well I'm Soviet
If you may have noticed, I've been inactive for a little while, but with good reason. I've been.... doing some stuff but now I'm back and plan to be active again.

I see theres many new members since the MyCENT came back online, I can't welcome you all individually so I'll just do this:

WELCOME TO TRAP17, oops, I mean WELCOME TO KNOWLEDGESUTRA!!!!!!!!!

I'm truly sorry for not making the KS IRC more popular, the IRC has been, and still is there.. ready for KS members to pour in, so the IRC is still going, if you wanna join just check my signature for the link. I'll also be talking to OpaQue about making it the primary chat for KS.

If you need links for download google xampp
Linux XAMPP
Window's XAMPP
Mac OS XAMPP
Solaris XAMPP

After the download has finished it should automatic come up with its setup if it does not come up with a set up follow these instructions:
Step1: Go to where you Installed the files
Step2:Click Setup_XAMPP
Step3:Follow its steps
Step4 Your back to where you should be!

Now click XAMPP_start and wait for it to load
OR
Click XAMPP_control This also serves the same purpose as XAMPP_start
Once you have opened the control then click start on Apache and Mysql

Once (xampp start) has finished loading and auto close
Once (xampp control) you have started Apache and Mysql
You can now start making PHP files Oh YEY!
once you have made a php file you can test it Put the php file in your XAMPP folder Under HT_Docs
And then type in your browser http://localhost/phpfilename
And your Php file will load !!
Have fun

Hello,

I got a script but i cant get 2 things working :

* Sort on alphabet
* Set the MAX size to 950 x 636

i hope some one can help me ...

This script i m using :

<?php
// Path to the folder which contains all of your image folders
$directory = "gallery";
// this is the page that you run the script on
$path = "index.php" . "?gallery=";
// This is the path to "thumbs.php" change this accordingly

$folders = array();
//This function lists all deirectories within the path specified by $directory

     // Define these as global vatrs, so that we can use / update them inside the function

---its a script that sends request from the desktop application to the web server

and transfer the results back to the desktop application. it is a sort of relay script.

please i need explanation that will help understand what the script is actually doing and how it works.

any resource on php desktop applications connections would be of help.

I hope I am putting this in the right section... But I am looking for some feedback on my wife's new site. I know it needs more content but we are working on a ton of graphics and should have them up by Sunday.
Please read below:

My wife and I decided to build a website for myspace and facebook graphics. Currently it's very small and we are adding content daily. She does her graphics and I post the pages & handle the coding. I am far from a webmaster so the process is slow. I know enough html to be dangerous and don't know much java, php, perl or anything else really. I still have some format work to do as far as far as centering the page & cleaning up some of the code. I'm in the process of building a tweaks page with glitter crap and layout snatchers, but the code is a bear. We are also working on graphics for the new Myspace Beta Profile. Posting graphics in beta is a bit different than it used to be, and to my knowledge, we are the first site to offer content for the new Beta environment. We currently have only one beta graphic posted but we are working on a bunch and should have them posted soon. (next few days I think)
Anyhow, check it out & give some feedback.
