Business › Re: Mobile Banking Grows As Phone Users Hit 29 Million by paranorman(m):
Good.

Cheques can't go away quickly as big money needs to move around atimes. Old chaps won't let it go.

ATM? not surprising as people still need to move around with cash.

Internet banking? It's expensive, kind of. Why would I want use Internet when I can dial *737# without data or internet?! grin (I that song! ) Security concerns too. USSD is safer.

Consumer psychology is one of the factors responsible for ithe increase of smaller transaction. People only want to withdraw what they need - frugality. People don't carry much cash again. Wíth the advent of POS, cash transaction are made on the fly. E-commerce sites takes some of the glory here too. Besides, a greater percentage of the Nigerian population lives below the poverty line, so it's no rocket science that the 'smaller transaction' factor is expected to jet on. Recession is another things self.


I still feel that utility is undermaximized in the services rendered by banks via the ATM services.

I dont want to start what i cant finish, i am not spiritually fortefied like prophet tb joshua or other prophets, that i can tell her things and be able to provide solutions. "i can see but i cant solve, i dont want to put someone in a complicated situation, putting their mind in an uneasy state without a solution from me. This is why my pastor told me to be careful and rather keep shut when i see things about people.
You see things huh?

I wanted to pray sometimes ago, then I just saw one that appeared on the ceiling. I didn't even scream, then I switched to praises and worship and the spirit has to tell me "you even have the guts to sing?".. Na that one shock me pass, I quickly changed back to prayer.
Seriously? grin cheesy

Those spirits are merciless.
You shouldn't have stopped praises though, you should have sang more, and with more aggression!

ok is okay


nowadays I don't really know what guys values in ladies... am not talking about the pictures o... have seen many pre wedding photos here and it make me believe guys good for beauty first...

Boys think girls are like books, If the cover doesn't catch their eye they won't bother to read what's inside. and if u tell them this... the reply is

" so will should take electron microscope along to see inner beautiful"
maybe this man is pointing to what he value most in his wife to be I don't know and it ain't my concern but just a piece of advice "u will leave with the character all your life not the beauty "

and some is out there saying It is because pheals is ugly

Programming › Explanation Needed In PHP by paranorman(op): 5:16pm On Jun 11, 2017
 //give te script time to execute
ini_set("max_execution_time", 200);

$portRange = range(0, 1023);
$host = "127.0.0.1";

print "<p>The scan results for $host is:</p>";
//execute the scan
foreach ($portRange as $port) {
if ($result = @fsockopen($host, $port, $errNo, $errString, 1)) {
$service = getservbyport($port, 'tcp');
print "Socket open at port $port, with <em><strong>$service</strong></em> service <br />";
}
} //end loop


The code above works just fine because wrote '@' beside the fsockopen() function. Removing the '@' produces error as seen in the screen shots. Why is the @ compulsory? what it actually does?

Thanks in anticipation of your replies.

What OS do you use? On Ubuntu, I had the same issue with my php/laravel. You know what? If ubuntu, just use: sudo apt-get install then the driver name (from the stack trace on your command line)
Nope bro, windows 10 pro.

Can you specify the exact error code and the printout message 4 d error​.

R u using Windows nd what version??
Do you have any database application on the system?
windows 10 pro.
I have db app; Oracle's MySql workbench I don't use much since PHPMyAdmin comes in quite handy for dev purposes. No biggy, still learning. Hope you get my drift.

Try searching d error code on Google
Did that, still confused.
check out this link: http://php.net/manual/en/pdo.installation.php

What I think is that the server cannot locate/find the PDO driver in the folder specified in the php.ini config file. I checked the folder, driver was there. I check for the folder specified in the directive, it was correct. still confused but I am going to keep looking. huh huh huh embarassed embarassed embarassed embarassed

Thanks anyway.
Programming › XAMPP Mysql ERROR: PDO Driver Not Found by paranorman(op): 6:56pm On Apr 22, 2017
Hello house,

I am trying to run this on XAMPP's MySQl server:

try {
$con = new PDO("MYSQL:host=locahost;dbname=db_name", "username", "password"wink;
$con->setAttributes(PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE, PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION);

$query = <<<HERE
SELECT
CONCAT(surname, ' ', firstname) AS 'name',
country
FROM tbl_customerdetails WHERE surname LIKE ? AND firstname LIKE ?;
HERE;
$stmt = $con->prepare($query);
$stmt->execute(array('J%', '%a%'));
$result = $stmt->fetchAll(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC);
print "<pre>";
print_r($result);
print "</pre>";
} catch (Exception $e) {
print "ERROR: " . $e->getMessage();
}


I get this error: driver could not be found..

I suppose the driver is supposed to come bundled with the XAMPP app itself.
App's version info: Apache/2.4.25 (Win32) OpenSSL/1.0.2j PHP/7.1.1

I didn't get this error when I was running the the App version with PHP 5. Can someone help me out with this?! angry huh embarassed

PHP. Just dealing with the raw HTTP thing. no particular language

You can use your browser to do this. All browsers have a web console you can use to make GET http request to either local or remote server, configure http headers to be sent with the request and read the response right in the console.

On latest firefox, open options, click developer and select web console to open the console OR press Ctrl+Shift+K (shortcut).

NB: Almost all latest major browsers like chrome, opera, safari and even internet explorer plus Edge have consoles but firefox is the easiest to use as they have complex interface. Moreover, it will take you time to get used to the functionalities they offer as it varies among vendors.

There are a lot of tutorials on the web on how to use developer tools provided by the vendors. Happy searching and playing.
thanks, I am gonna try this out..
Programming › Re: Http Request/response Testing by paranorman(op): 7:43am On Apr 03, 2017
i gotta explain better then:

I just wanna practice with the raw HTTP request/response messages. I got Telnet client on windows 10 (Telnet server has been deprecated on windows 10). I also got APACHE XAMPP, but telnet won't connect with localhost as connection is always lost!

I just wanna practice with the raw thing, do something with Telnet like:

>open 127.0.0.1 80
>GET /helloworld.php HTTP/1.1

So I can get the response HTTP message, that's all. I don't need something elaborate or with to many technical jargons, I never expert abeg.
