Ah, it seems that the doctype might have been to blame then, as an <a>
tag cannot exist within a <tr> unless it is in a <td> or <th>. If in
doubt, run your page through the W3C Validator, as it's a great help in
catching bugs.

I also think it's worth mentioning that the XHTML standard will refer to
the "id" attribute, not the "name" attribute, when searching for a link
in the format "#identifier". Many people double-up (putting the same
value in both attributes) for backwards-compatibility. I look forward to
the day when markup isn't so bloated due to the inability of certain web
browser franchises to "get it right."

Although I usually look at the future through an optimistic point of

That would be nice, if only for the rather good canvas support, which
I kinda have a vested interest in.

Yeah, but it will mean that there will still be about 3 different
rendering versions of IE out there by the time it comes out; 7, 8 and 9
(I'm fairly sure 6 will have gone to that good ol' web in the sky by
that time)

Sure, but depending on how closely it follows WebKit, could make
testing on IE9, Safari and Chrome a breeze.

Don't forget Konqueror in that list ;) It's not exactly the same engine
after Apple forked it from KHTML, but it's quite close, and both
Konqueror and Safari are said to be working a little more closely than
before to share the work done to the rendering engines since the fork.
I'm waiting for the day when Firefox starts using Google's V8 scripting
engine!

A few years ago, that was the only browser I'd use for web
surfing. I'm honestly not sure where it's market share is now, but
I'd guess only in the 1% range. It's a shame.... it's a viable player
on the field.

I'd rather all the engines follow the W3C standards so that you just
have to make sure your web page is compliant.

Though I always script to W3 Standards, I could care less if browsers
follow those standards, so long as we wind up closer and closer to a
general set of rules we can obide by.
If IE 9 does take on Webkit, that's one step closer. It means one less
set of arbitrary rules to develop for, which is one step closer to a
standard.
Just my opinion. I guess it's the same as the fact that I don't care so
much for any given standards, as much as I do for the idea of those
standards. Bad standards are still 7 steps ahead of no standards at all.

Beware that Konqueror has changed with KDE4. Now its main purpose is
to be a web browser, whereas the new program "Dolphin" is used for
file management etc.

I can see nothing wrong with that. I also just read the implode manual
page quickly, and it definitely does not say you can use the arguments
the other way around. What it does say is that the glue parameter is
optional, and is wrongly the first parameter as it's usual for optional
parameters to be on the right hand side of the arguments list.
On a personal note (just my code style really) I'd change the above to
the shorthand version, as you're only using the if for a simple
assignment:
$BannerSize = (isset($_POST['BannerSize']))?implode(",",
$_POST['BannerSize']):"";

"Invalid Argument". Then $_POST['BannerSize'] is not what it is expecting.
Run a is_array() on it before you are using it.
Something like the following should do.
if ( isset($_POST['BannerSize']) && is_array($_POST['BannerSize']) ) {
$BannerSize = implode(',', $_POST['BannerSize']);
} else {
$BannerSize = "";
}
You could also go a little further and do something like this...
if ( isset($_POST['BannerSize']) ) {
if ( is_array($_POST['BannerSize']) ) {
$BannerSize = implode(',', $_POST['BannerSize']);
} else {
$BannerSize = $_POST['BannerSize'];
}
} else {
$BannerSize = "";
}
The latter one would assume that you would only receive a valid string
instead of an array if $_POST['BannerSize'] was set at all.
so... YMMV

Hi guys:
Dones anyone have any scheduling scripts that they might share OR can
give me a link to some?
I need a way for a user to register an appointment via a calendar.
I don't want to write something that's already been done and available.

Strictly a public calendar, Tedd, or one with a full registration

Not sure if it does what you want, but you might try looking at Google
calendar. It's very good.

I used http://bulldog.tzo.org/webcal/ for my wife and a few friends. Seemed
nice and easy to setup.
Looks like it is end of life, but they have started a new version,
http://www.webcalng.com/ looks pretty much the same.
Might give that a try.

All:
I'm going to put the PostTrack/ListWatch system back in an active
state to start counting and reporting next week. Thanks to those who
voiced requests, suggestions, and inquiries.
If anyone DOES NOT WANT their email address to appear in the
Friday reports next to their post metrics, please send me a private
email with your address.
It will have the standard SPAM stuff and all, including
improvements that were made in the "off season" since I took it down
to rework it. A near-future version will also include an
implementation of RGraph[1] by our very own Richard Heyes.
Suggestions are always welcome, as well.

Hi Guys,
So after somebody mentioned that NetBeans supports PHP development, I
decided to give it a try. I'm liking it thus far, but I have a question
if anybody happens to know the answer.
I have created a project group containing two projects (One for the site
framework, one for the site frontend), but I'd like some help using
xdebug across two projects.
NetBeans has built in breakpoints and watches which it co-ordinates with
the script when run with xdebug, but I cannot seem to get these to work
in the framework project if I'm testing front end.
IE:
- Add breakpoint to front-end page.
- Add watch to front-end variable
- Add breakpoint to back-end framework
- Add watch to back-end member variable
NetBeans does not show me anything have set to do on the back-end.
Note, I'm not using the xdebug breakpoint function, but rather expecting
NetBeans to take care of those for me, so I don't litter code with those
function calls.
It has something to do with the multiple projects, but I wondered if
there was a way around it. As I said, I've added both projects to the
same project group.
