You fccked up bro, no sane person here is gonna trust your biz.

those conditions are for an established, well known developers.
Do you expect someone who landed a job after 6 months of begging to start presenting terms & conditions documents to the client?

nobswesbter: Hi guys,

I need your help. This thing is totally frustrating me. I'm going crack any moment from now. It's like trying to have intimacy with one-legged woman.

I created an html form for my site. I want to be able to redirect my users to another url when the form is completed and also receive the datas in my my email. i don't know how to achieve this without php. i have tried and tried but nothing is working.

I have been able to use <form method="post" action="http://meetingwomenanddating.com" to redirect the form after completion but how can i receive the datas users submitted also.

I will appreciate a step by step guide.

Thanks... I'm waiting by the system.

you need php to get your data...

Please explain yourself better. starting from what you wanted to do and how much you know about it...

pesty100: Have searched all programming language am yet to find.... I will really appreciate if someone could help me out

if you are good with php/mysql/ajax/jquery you will understand that you can achieve it. I am not saying that i can do it, i am saying that i have done it already.

Mine is a php/mysql web application where you can sign in, select your choice quiz and start taking it. As an admin user or a person with an admin account, you can sign in and set the questions yourself. It scores you live as you take the test and sums up your score at the end of each test.
It also logs your scores for future reference. Everything is built from the scratch and so, can be modified to your taste.
Multiple users can take the same test at the same time and each user will be presented with varying options even though the question has same answer. ***let me explain that more: each question has options A - E. How ever, option A will not be the same for user1 and user2. User1's option A might be user2's option D. So if user1 communicates to user2 that the answer is C for example, user C will end up getting the result wrong.

Like i said, its done already. If you really need it, request for the demo. Datz all.

sampeke: I want create a database using form as a mode entry for my students so that their parents can access results anytime or anywhere. Plz any help will be welcome...

What they are saying above is that your request is rather very easy for someone who KNOWS HOW to do it.

But judging from your question, you will need a month long lesson to understand it.

ADVICE: Pay someone like me small money to implement your stuff in a matter of hours, ok?

hilaryiwens05: Hanhan babe....don't give d guy false hope naaa. I neva learnt photoshop. Just corel and fireworks and am doing just great

you neva learnt photoshop and you do great? Doubt it. Seriously.

I have done it with php/mysql. And then I used ajax/jquery to spice it all up.

If you need the demo, holla me.

No they didnt. You subscribed b4 3rd. Enjoy it while it lasts!

umanahnsidibe: check out here www. careitonline.co

you are not serious at allll. Chei!

owambe: using the include('";, method, and its been working until i tried working with the clean urls

i thought as much. Now can u tell me:
1. your directory structure relative to subscribe.php and the included file? Are they in the same directory? Or not?

2. Are there other included files in subscribe.php and if yes, at which point in your page was the db connection file included?

The reason why i am asking all these questions is that i experienced it first hand i solved it on my own, needless to say it gave me tough time but at the end it all made me sort of a voice on that issue.
These problem occur because, with the new way you display your url, its become a bit hard for files on a page whose normal filename has been rewritten to link all the files that run that page.

Your externally linked css, js files a bound to suffer challenges unless you linked them like say:

<link href='http://yourdomain.com/css/style.css' type='css' />

rather than

<link href='css/style.css' type='css' />

the includes are not supposed to be affected by the linking issue but i suspect something else is amiss.
If it were me, there are many ways i'll troubleshoot this. For e.g, i will put the connection code directly on susbscribe.php and make sure i include die(mysql_error()) in my query just to root out that side of the problem.

owambe: yes it didnt work, the data from row 4 didnt work. the images part worked.

Now tell me, how did you link your connection script to susbcribe.php
Let's start from there?

owambe: WHAT ABOUT THE DETAILS THAT ARE NOT PASSED TO THE OTHER PAGE, FROM MY DATABASE, BECAUSE THATS IS THE ESSENCE OF MY URL

i dont get you. Are you saying that database row with id of 4 is not returned from db? I really dont get your question.
Did the image and css work with the fix i gave you above?

So it works...

Ok for the missing image:
Put this line in the head section of your page:

<base href="http://yoursite.com"/>

If you are on your local host you can change 'yoursite.com' to somthing like 'localhost/site'.

I dont know your xamp filesystem but yoursite.com should be your server_name.

gameaddict: I know this is old but I feel I should come back and relay some info.

Bakenda's suggestions were right on! and JOINs are awesome and are simply a case of intersections and unions. They're intuitive and allow for both well designed databases and well defined/structured code.
And... if you're like me and you're worried about using up the database space, don't. If you design the database well enough, everything will work out fine. If the database gets used up, it'll be because a lot of people are using your site by which time you'll probably have made enough to triple database size.

Cheers.

There was another way I achieved your feat.

The target is notifying other posters abi?

I had a 'notifications' table and 'followed' table. When anyone posts on any topic, his 'user_id' and 'topic_id' gets inserted into the 'followed' table.
Now each time theres a new comment, after performing the comment insert query, I also perform notification insert which inserts a notification message for every user in the followed table where topic_id matches the current topic.
Now the notification can also go to a user who simply 'followed' the topic without actually posting anything.


**** To prevent notification table being overcrowded, i remove each notification row whenever a user opens the notification page matched with the notification id.

owambe: am kinda confused, because if i reconstruct the link to wat u have just said, hw does the content from the database show. cus am displaying the content usin id numbers

Thats the idea bro. The .htaccess code (RewriteRule subscribe/(.*)/ subscribe.php?id=$1) tells Apache server that 'subscribe/4' is a request for 'subscribe.php?id=4' .

Thats the point of the whole thing. You dont need to bother about that. Just find out if the code works. If it works, there will be other new problems that will arise. For example, your css and other linked files might not link corectly and that will affect the page formatting. But that one is no problem at all cos you just need only one line of code to fix that.

Just test first.. I have been through this path before.

owambe: i took the snippet u gave me,
created a .htaccess file
inserted the snippet into the .htaccess file
changed the index.php to subscribe.php, because thats the name of my page,
i have tested it locally on xampp and remotely

is there something am doing wrong,
or can u fix a sample for me that i can test and follow.
thanks

First question is: is .htacces working on your xampp? If it is, hope you werent expecting the code to redirect your original link?

You have to re-structure your link from

<a href="subscribe.php?id=4">Link</a> 

to

<a href="subscribe/4">Link</a> 

Its not that the first link above will no longer work but it wont automatically show up in your address bar as the second one just because of the url. Though that can be achieved but not with this .htaccess code.

Did this answer your question?

owambe: it didint work sir pls help

# Enable Rewriting
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule subscribe.php/(.*)/ subscribe.php?id=$1

Tell me exactly ALL you did and let me know what the problem is...

owambe: Hello peeps, i have been trying to get the use of mod re write to create clean urls, basically what i want to achieve is when evera link like this is accessed "index.php?=4" it should be converted to something like this index.php/4/. thanks any post is welcomed,

if you know what .htaccess is,

create this lines of code inside it

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On  
RewriteRule index.php/(.*)/ index.php?id=$1

HOWEVER if you dont know what .htaccess is,
create a file you will name ".htaccess" put the line above inside it and put in the same directory as your "index.php"

*NB: if you want the url to show as "index/4" rather than "index.php/4", remove the ".php" just before the first "/" in my code.
Ciao
