Strange requirements, but whatever.
A shoutbox is pretty rare on anything except sites aimed at teenagers
so I'm not surprised you haven't had many people jump in and tell you
what they're using, because they're not.
If this is for chatting with the site admin you may want to look into
one of the live support options rather than a shoutbox. They're
private (although I'm sure some have a public option) and they will
provide a much better system for the admin to track multiple
conversations. I really think a shoutbox is the wrong solution for
this particular problem.

It's often been argued back and forth whether people have Javascript
turned off. I suspect the vast majority of people have Javascript turned
on. However, Java is another story. You may find that many more have it
turned off.

Yeah, but then, generally, you can tell the people visiting this site
what they need enabled, as it looks like the visitors are going to be a
select few. Java is available on all the main browsers, and generally
only needs one to accept the applet. For a chat application to be
written using only Ajax technology, well, like I said before, if
Facebook tried it and still can't get it right with all the financial
backing they have, what hope for someone to release this sort of thing
open source and Facebook not be aware of it?
Thanks,

Indeed. Using ImageMagick's 'identify' command, the first layer is 30x24
on a 32x32 canvas.
radioactive-bread-eek.gif[0] GIF 30x24 32x32+2+6 8-bit PseudoClass 256c
2.11kb
radioactive-bread-eek.gif[1] GIF 32x27 32x32+0+4 8-bit PseudoClass 256c
2.11kb
If getimagesize() works on the canvas, then you might want to use that,
instead. gd and gifs don't really have a steady relationship, anyway.

It does indeed seem to be some sort of bug. I've just tested it with
your image on my machine here and for imagesx() and imagesy() it gives
30 and 24 respectively. getimagesize() does return the correct
dimensions though.
The same image saved as a flat single layer gif from the Gimp behaves
exactly the same way.
This might not be a proper bug as such, as the image itself might be
32x32, but the first layer (the first frame in the animated version) is
30x24 when you remove the dead, unused, transparent background. Perhaps
GD is meant to report on the *actual* size of the image, rather than the
dimensions of the frame?

Out of curiosity, if this is just for coding, and you're already a Linux
guy, why not just install a lightweight linux flavor on the laptop instead
of WF/XP?
http://www.xfce.org/
http://lightlinux.blogspot.com/2008/06/top-10-of-lightweight-linux_24.html
You didn't mention the specs, but any computer of the past few years is
pretty powerful. I used to rock a Dell i8200 (P4/1GB) and XP with a VMWare
workstation of Gentoo. SAMBA mount it and use NAT and it works awesome. So
you could try that. http://www.vmware.com/products/player/ and there are a
ton of pre-built VMs to download there http://www.vmware.com/appliances/. Or
you could also go with Sun's http://www.virtualbox.org too.

I have a page on my site where I can optionaly filter by certain fields
(order by filesize or file category), but I am implementing a shopping cart
type of idea where users can submit an order.
As administrators, my coworkers and I need to be able to filter orders by
their contents. For example:
View all orders for "Jack and the Beanstalk," where an order may have Jack
and the Beanstalk and other items.
I have an order table that keeps track of the order_id, the date, the
status, etc. I also have an order_lineitem table that is the contents of the
order. This has a one-to-many structure (without foreign keys because it is
mysql).
I was baffled as to how to filter the orders by the item_id that appears in
the order_lineitem table.
I just came up with this, but I'm not sure how the mysql_queries will handle
an array. Do I have to do some extensive regular expression management here
to get this to work, or will it accept an array?
<?php
if (isset($_POST['showid']))
$showid = $_POST['showid'];
$subSQL = "SELECT order_id FROM afy_show_lineitem WHERE show_id =
{$_POST['showid']};";
$subResult = mysql_query($subSQL);
$where = "WHERE";
$extQuery = 'order_id = {$subResult}';
}
$resultOrders = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM afy_order {$where} {$extQuery};")
or die(mysql_error("Could not query the database!"));
?>

Hello,
phpMyAdmin crashes when access is attempted each time, and I need to run
an httpd backtrace. I have a question though.
There is another httpd instance running on the same host. If I run httpd
-X will it interfere with the other httpd process running, or will
it be a separate process?
Thanks
-John

I am trying to use PHP as backend, which communicate with apache-2.3's
mod_proxy_fcgi
But I have noticed that the SCRIPT_FILENAME has been changed to
"proxy:balancer://xxxxxx", it cann't be recognized by the remote PHP
backend. So the request failed.
In my opinion, the remote PHP backend use the SCRIPT_FILENAME to find the
script file. But the PHP and the Apache may be in different computer, so the
Document Root may be different. is that means the PHP shouldn't rely on the
SCRIPT_FILENAME?
how can I configure the PHP to know the real script file to execute?
Thank you
