[wdvltalk] OT:Epson Plot! Software

2003-03-13 Thread melanie . phair
Hi All,

Another posting in desperation.

Does anyone by chance have the Epson Plot! CD that was bundled with the
Colour Stylus 1520 printer. It is used to print hpgl plots and after 2
years I now need to use it and can't find the disc.

If anyone does have it I can arrange access to my ftp for uploading.

And yes, before someone suggests it, I have contacted Epson support but
they can no longer supply it. Typical.

Hoping someone can help

regards

Melanie

  I am looking for a shopping cart, written in php/mysql/ that will
  integrate into paypal. As I want this primarily for learning purposes a
  free one would be ideal.
 
 Try the free PayPal one?

Is that supposed to be helpful  BJ ?

If the PayPal one did what I wanted I wouldn't be looking for an
alternative.

[wdvltalk] grabbing referrer details in php/mysql

2003-02-04 Thread Melanie Phair

Hi All,

As an exercise I am writing my own web stats program (yes, I know it
is reinventing the wheel but its one up from printing a screenfull of
Hello World g) and I am trying to find out how I can grab the url
of the referrer and also the search term used if it is search engine.
Can anyone point me in the right direction or towards an online
tutorial please.

Hi Jon

$_SERVER[HTTP_REFERER] (or$HTTP_SERVER_VARS[HTTP_REFERER] ifyou
have an older version of PHP).
Now I am confused (again !)

I tried the above to no avail and have just checked phpinfo() and
although I seem to be running 4.2.3 the above variable, HTTP_REFERER
, does not appear to be listed. Any ideas ?

Thanks Jon.

That works a treat.  I also altered the code and replaced a php file
on my site that is returned by Google and yep, the url is returned in
full.

Now all I have to do is work out why my code doesn't work g

You may hear from me again some time soon.

[wdvltalk] php/mysql

2003-01-04 Thread melanie . phair
Hi All,

Happy new Year

I have a problem which I have struggled with for a couple of weeks now and
can't find an answer. Hoping you guys and girls can help.


I am creating an excel file from a mysql database. That I can do fine. I
am using the following to pull the required data.

Select coderef,title, author, web_price, categoryid from list Order by
categoryid

Now, categoryid is a numeric flag that refers to an alpha entry,
description, in another table, categories. Categoryid is in a random
order. Is there anyway that I can pull the data from the list table and
alphabetically order it on the value of description all in one line as I
use the query result elsewhere to build the excel file.

Here's hoping

regards

Melanie

[wdvltalk] Being driven crazy by new type of Spam

2002-11-11 Thread Melanie Phair
Hi All,


I am being hit by a new type of spam. This press release will explain
it better than I can

snip

Spam and pop-up ads have been combined in an unholy alliance because
a bulk-mail spam developer has figured out how to
transmit pop-up spam directly to PCs through a messaging function
found in Windows.

The function was designed for use by computer network technicians to
communicate. However, anyone can send the
messages and there's no need for the user to have an internet browser
open.

Gary Flynn, a security engineer at james Madison University, where
several messages were received, says the technique is
worse than email spam. This pops up on the screen, he said. It's
almost like somebody barging into your office and
interrupting you.

/snip

This is so intrusive as unlike email spam where you have a chance of
deleting it before you see it this pops up in the middle of your
screen covering whatever you are looking at.

I have Googled (will that word be in the dictionary soon ?) but as
yet cant find a way of turning the wretched thing off.  Any ideas
anyone.

regards

melanie

Great. I was almost there but that got me safely to the destination.
Thanx

I have another excel question which I will ask here just in case we
have any excel gurus lurking in the shadows.

Column a contains numeric data, say 100,101,102.etc

In another column I want to put a web link in the form of

www.mysite.co/images/xxx.jpg

where xxx is the value in column a of the respective row.

I guess I need some form of concatenation but I can't figure the
syntax.

Anyone any ideas ?

[wdvltalk] mysql/php/excel

2002-11-08 Thread Melanie Phair
Hi all,

Finally got the spreadsheet sorted apart from a problem which I
cannot solve. I have tried everything I can think of to no avail.

The following bit of code is supposed to generate a url in the last
cell of each row

snip
$code= $row[0].$sep;
 $image= 
http://ipbooks.net/pictures/.$code..jpg;;
 $schema_insert .= $image.$sep;
/snip


instead the url is split at $code and the .jpg is placed in the
next cell along.

The spreadsheet can be run/downloaded at
http://ipbooks.net/xls_gen_2.php?w=0
so that you can see what I mean.

I need to have this done like 5 hours ago so any help gratefully
received.

Try this $image = http://ipbooks.net/pictures/${code}.jpg;;

The brackets are the other way of interpolating a variable into a

Hi Scott

Not too sure what you mean. As written, the line

$image = http://ipbooks.net/pictures/${code}.jpg;

gives a parse error (I'm using PHP). Also, I can't see where the
concatenation is (or am I being dense?).

Hi Jon,
Once more you come up trumps.
On Fri, 16 Aug 2002 12:46:18 +0100, you wrote:

1. Make sure all your scripts that contain connection settings and
whatnot
end in .php, so they get processed instead of output - this way,
even if
someone calls the script directly, all that happens is they get a
blank
page.

That's one thing I managed to grasp from earlier postings and I think
I have that set up OK.


if you move the connections folder outside the public tree, then no-
one can
request your connection stuff via HTTP (but you can still include
it).

/
/cgi-bin
/includes
/includes/connections
/includes/any-other-sensitive-stuff
/logs
/public_html
/public_html/books


Now this is where I get confused. If I enter just the site name in my
browser I get the index file that sits in /public_html and I
therefore assume that the system sees /public_html as my root
directory. Now, how do I include a file that sits under the root ?
Surely the OS treats the root as the bottom directory ( or does it?)
I have a strange feeling that my logic is about to get turned upside
down g


That's a good sign. Paranoia should be the *default* frame of mind
for any
halfway-competent sysadmin.

Me? A sysadmin? WOW !!

I can see a request for a payrise in the offing.

I can't see the actual payrise mind, just the request :-)

Melanie

[wdvltalk] RE: trouble with mail()

2002-07-31 Thread Melanie Phair

Hi all,

Thanks to this list I have now got my email correctly formatted.
Thanks Jon and Shashank.

My next question relates to the best way of sending the email to
multiple recipients whose addresses are held in a table. I know I can
add each address to the send.to param with each separated by a ,.but
just how do I get them from the table into the param holder ?

regards

Melanie
