I will try write out the complete logic for your simple HTML code.

1. The action of the html form has to be specified. It is that action that will be performed when the user clicks the submit or send button.

2. The action should probably be a PHP script. As you can do a lot of form validation to sanitize user input.

3. I'll advice that you do a little bit of form validation with your HTML. For example, if one of the input fields is for e-mail, then set type = email in your code. You can set type for passwords, number, text, etc. You can also set minimum and maximum number of characters. I'll also encourage you to set some fields that are compulsory as required in your html.

4. This is where the PHP comes in. You really need to think through your form. Are all the fields required? If they are, how are you going to make sure the user fills them?

5. In your PHP script, the first thing you need to do is make sure your PHP script grabs data from the HTML form.

6. If you're successful with that, what you just need to do is to echo the data back to the user.

Pls house someone want to sell samsung galaxy e7, and am really confused if it's original and how can I identify if it's copied one, cus its looks original to me but.

Install CPU-Z on the said phone. The application will give you the real device details. Compare the data obtained from the application with the specs of the phone from a website like gsmarena

It's simple! While growing up what Age where you introduced to opposite sex or homosexuality

First and foremost, I really really hope you know that the times are different. Also, note that I'm almost 30. So to compare the environment in which I grew up to the environment of today would be folly.

Nevertheless, while growing up sex education in Nigeria was almost non-existent. I vividly remember the first class I had on reproduction. Hearing my biology teacher call private organs by their names had me smiling from ear to ear like a sheep. In fact most of us in that class had never called our privates by their English biological names. I mean, we had nicknames for them!

Notwithstanding, my Dad had the only sex education talk with me one afternoon when he noticed that I had bushy hair down there... At first, I was ashamed talking to him about that kinda stuff. I mean, there was nothing he told me that I didn't already know as I had read my fair share of Better Lover, Hints and some other pornographic materials.

And that brings me to my point; parents are supposed to be the first person to teach their children about sex! Simples. I hope for your children's sake that you know this. That my dad didn't tell me early enough (we had that talk when I was in SS1) didn't mean he was right. Especially in these times that "Uncles", "Aunties", "Grandpas" and "grandmas" have taken their perverseness to another level.

Have a great night.

To those who think this author is too explicit, please note that the book was written first and foremost for the American society that is in itself explicit.

That being said, the OP shouldn't have posted 'half truth' as that is what he did. He took a page from a whole book and used it as a benchmark to judge the book.

To those who think the author is too explicit, then you need to look up a guy Praise Fowowe. The first time I heard the guy speak, I was dumbfounded. The truth is that homosexuality & paedophilia are on the rise. That's a truth all parents know.

Whether you want to be explicit or not in warning your child should be determined by you. But, you have to educate your child.

My 2 cents

IS MAC REALLY MORE EXPENSIVE THAN WINDOWS?

I think one of the main reasons why Mac looks like it is more expensive than windows is that mac doesn't have low-end products on its line. Come to think of it, its like comparing iphone to android. Iphone may seem expensive than some high specs low cost android phones, but that is because it is a super high end phone. But we get its competitor from samsung galaxy and Sony Experia.

When compared to Windows machines, Macs are expensive. You can get a new windows machine manufactured in that same year around 400 dollars. but a Mac at that price would probably be 10 years old.

Yes, windows machines that can compete performance wise with Macs (Asus ROG, Dell XPS & Alienware, MSI) are almost in the same price range but someone who can't afford 2000 dollars can settle for lesser options.

And that in my opinion makes Windows cheaper than Macs

It is not only lawyer that can register a business name, non lawyers can also do that. The practical steps to take are

1. Conduct a search of the business name your want to register. How will you do that? visit:Https://login.remita.net/remita/external/CAC/collector/payments.reg . Generate what is called RRR with CAC (Corporate Affairs Commission) . In that RRR platform, select what you are paying for which is for name search/availability.

2. Once you generate an RRR, it will display a reference code and account number where the payment will be made. Take the slip to any bank of you choice and pay the amount stipulated therein. The fee is #500 only.

3.After payment, the bank will give you a confirmation slip evidencing that you have paid. Attach it with your deposit slip and proceed to CAC

NOTE: IT IS ADVISABLE TO USE FIRST BANK. IT IS FASTER AND RELIABLE WHEN IT COMES TO PAYMENT OF CAC FEES. ALSO, ANY OTHER BANK IS ALLOWED,BUT ACCESS BANK IS NOT AN OPTION, IS VERY SLOW WHEN IT COMES TO PROCESSING OF CAC FEES. ITS YOUR CHOICE.

4. At the CAC office, present the deposit slip together with the print out given to you by the bank. CAC will confirm through their portal whether the payment has reflected. Once the payment has reflected, it will be stamped. At this juncture submit the stamped copy to the officer in charge who will give you a form.
NOTE: YOU MUST DO PHOTOCOPY OF THAT STAMPED SLIP AND THE DEPOSIT SLIP

5 Once you are done filling the form for the business name search, submit the form and enter the form number in the CAC register. That is all.

NOTE THE NAME WILL BE MADE AVAILABLE AFTER 60 DAYS OF SUBMISSION OF THE FORM. THAT IS THE PROVISION OF COMPAINES AND ALLIED MATTERS ACT. ALSO, YOU MUST CHOOSE TWO NAMES FOR THE SEARCH.


IN OUR NEXT EPISODE WILL TEACH YOU HOW TO GO ABOUT WITH THE SECOND PHARSE OF THE PROCEDURE




THE LAW

Please I'll like to know the amount to register a Private Company Limited by shares. I ask because the amount used to be 60k but on CAC website the amount there is 10k. I am a bit sceptical of the amount quoted on the website because prices of services rarely go down in this country. Please help throw more light on it.

Screenshot is attached. Private Limited Company is number 2 on the list.

Messages about protecting your copyright or privacy rights on Facebook by posting a particular legal notice to your Facebook wall are all variants of an item circulated several years ago positing that posting a similar notice on a web site would protect that site's operators from prosecution for piracy. In both cases the claims were erroneous, an expression of the mistaken belief the use of some simple legal talisman — knowing enough to ask the right question or post a pertinent disclaimer — will immunize one from some undesirable legal consequence. The law just doesn't work that way.

First off, the "problem" this ineffective solution supposedly addresses is a non-existent one: Facebook isn't claiming copyright to the personal information, photographs, and other material that their users are posting to the social network, nor have they announced any plans that would make all Facebook posts public (even previously deleted ones) regardless of a user's privacy settings):

In response to rumors about copyright issues that began circulating in November 2012 after Facebook announced they were considering revoking users' rights to vote on proposed policy changes, the company issued a statement noting that:

There is a rumor circulating that Facebook is making a change related to ownership of users' information or the content they post to the site. This is false. Anyone who uses Facebook owns and controls the content and information they post, as stated in our terms. They control how that content and information is shared. That is our policy, and it always has been. Go to Facebook.com/policies to learn more:


Similarly, ABC News reported:
[Users worried that] Facebook will own their photos or other media are posting [a frightful
message] — unaware that it is a hoax. Here's the truth: Facebook doesn't own your media.
"We have noticed some statements that suggest otherwise and we wanted to take a moment to remind you of the facts — when you post things like photos to Facebook, we do not own them," Facebook spokesman Andrew Noyes said in a statement. "Under our terms you grant Facebook permission to use, distribute, and share the things you post, subject to the terms and applicable privacy settings."

Brad Shear, a Washington-area attorney and blogger who is an expert on social media, said the message [that Facebook users are posting to their walls is] "misleading and not true." He said that when you agree to Facebook's terms of use you provide Facebook a "non-exclusive, transferable, royalty-free, worldwide license to use any content you post. You do not need to make any declarations about copyright issues since the law already protects you. The privacy declaration [in this message] is worthless and does not mean anything."
In any case, Facebook users cannot retroactively negate any of the privacy or copyright terms they agreed to when they signed up for their accounts, nor can they unilaterally alter or contradict any new privacy or copyright terms instituted by Facebook, simply by posting a contrary legal notice on their Facebook walls.

Moreover, the fact that Facebook is now a publicly traded company (i.e., a company that has issued stocks which are traded on the open market) or an "open capital entity" has nothing to do with copyright protection or privacy rights. Any copyright or privacy agreements users of Facebook have entered into with that company prior to its becoming a publicly traded company or changing its policies remain in effect: they are neither diminished nor enhanced by Facebook's public status.

Before you can use Facebook, you must indicate your acceptance of that social network's legal terms , which includes its privacy policy and its terms and policies . You can neither alter your acceptance of that agreement nor restrict the rights of entities who are not parties to that agreement simply by posting a notice to your Facebook account, citing the Uniform Commercial Code ( UCC ), or referencing the Berne Convention. (One of the common legal talismans referenced above is UCC Section 1-308, which has long been popular among conspiracy buffs who incorrectly maintain that citing it above your signature on an instrument will confer upon you the ability to invoke extraordinary legal rights.)


If you do not agree with Facebook's stated policies, you have several options:
1. Decline to sign up for a Facebook account.
2. Bilaterally negotiate a modified policy with Facebook.
3. Lobby for Facebook to amend its policies through its
Facebook Site Governance section.
4. Cancel your Facebook account.

(Note that in the last case, you may have already ceded some rights which you cannot necessarily reclaim by canceling your account.)

As techtalk noted of Facebook users' current privacy rights:
The fact is that Facebook members own the intellectual property (IP) that is uploaded to the social network, but depending on their privacy and applications settings, users grant the social network "a non-exclusive, transferable, sub-licensable, royalty-free, worldwide license to use any IP content that you post on or in connection with Facebook (IP License)."
Facebook adds, "[t]his IP License ends when you delete your IP content or your account unless your content has been shared with others, and they have not deleted it."

While the social network does not technically own its members content, it has the right to use anything that is not protected with Facebook's privacy and applications settings. For instance, photos, videos and status updates set to public are fair game.

B2B transactions in Nigeria are full of corruption. Why should you owe your contractors after they have handed over a project that you agreed meet your standards and specification?

An area bro of mine who runs a signage business with his partner was complaining to me some months ago that this same ConOil is owing them 40 million naira. Imagine! For a small business employing under 30 people to be owed 40 million. Bad thing is they (the signage company) acquired a bank loan to finance the project. ConOil has not paid meanwhile interest is making the loan to increase. To make matters worse, if you go to their office to complain and demand for YOUR money, they'll feel insulted and delete your company from their list of contractors.


That day, I concluded that many Nigerian businesses, especially those owned by individuals are not well run! Let's forget the high cost of doing business and other economic woes--many Nigerian businesses are not well run. Simples

BVNO:
Hi everyone....
Please I need an urgent response to my question. Please help a sister.

I am in need of an adobe acrobat that has the following features : Merge(Combine) Files, Delete Files, Extract Files, Rotate files, Move files, Read & Write and Reduces files.

Please which of the acrobat has all the features listed above.

Kindly help, I am in a hot seat.

Thank you.

Adobe Acrobat Pro has all the features only problem is it's not available as a free software. To get a cracked version, you'll have to download from a torrent website. Another problem is the installer size--about 2gb. If you still need the software and in Lagos (around Iyana Ipaja axis) I could give you the one I currently use

Dollyak:
There aren't enough job to go around, which in addition to lower wages, is one of the many reasons behind brexit. In addition, a free access to Eu workers has led to a social and financial neglect of the British people. Brexit is undoubtedly the wrong choice in the short term, but it remains to be seen how everything pans out in the medium and long term. Eu policy is too restrictive and wasn't going to work in the first place.

Lastly, for a Brexit to do well they need to start producing more world class products.

This issue isn't that of Britain alone... Donald Trump is using same tactics in the US and that's why he's so popular. Truth is the average British citizen considers the jobs the Eastern Europe migrants do as "dirty". Also, these migrants would do the skilled labour work a Briton would do for so much less. As an employer whose aim is to maximise profit, who would you employ?

It is estimated that USA has lost between 1.5-3 million jobs since manufacturers like Apple, HP, Dell, etc decided to outsource manufacturing to Asia. Now Donald Trump says and I quote “They’re stealing our jobs; they’re beating us in everything; they’re winning, we’re losing.” These sentiments have struck a chord with many struggling Americans, particularly those in the unemployed and underemployed working class and that makes a major part of his fan base.

Would the Americans be stupid like Britons and make Donald President? Only time will tell

Cuteamigo1:
I never said they were the largest contributors oo. anyways you said yourself they are one the largest contributors and they feel they are not getting out of the deal and they that's why they vote leave. cheers

You said and I quote "numbers don't lie bro. go ahead and educate us better. from intelligence, to donations to the eu, jobs and migrants it's all the same story. av been following it for a longtime so I know what am saying."

And I only tried to educate you better and attached the numbers to it. Datsall

Cuteamigo1:
numbers don't lie bro. go ahead and educate us better. from intelligence, to donations to the eu, jobs and migrants it's all the same story. av been following it for a longtime so I know what am saying.

For many years, Britain and Germany were the only significant net contributors to the EU budget. Now, however, there are ten countries who pay more in than they get back.
In terms of total contribution, Britain remains the second biggest payer behind Germany.
But when each contributor’s payment is divided by the number of people in the country, Britain sinks down the table.
On a per-head basis, Britons are the eighth-biggest contributors to the EU. The biggest payers are the Dutch: every one them sends almost four times as much to Brussels.

Cuteamigo1:
why isn't anyone giving an analysis that talks about both sides of the coin. Britain exited eu because they realized they were giving more than they were getting which for me I think it's smart. think of it as Lagos living Nigeria ( I hope they don't lol) who would blame them giving the fact that they put more into the federation account than they receive when it's tym to share.
those who voted for stay were those who were young and enjoyed the partying and travel across eu countries while those who voted out where the elderly which consisted mostly of the farmers and business men who could not rise to their full potentials giving the eu regulations.

They didn't realise they were giving more than they were getting... They THOUGHT they were giving more than they were getting. There's a BIG difference between the two

grandstar:
The Brexit was the daftest move Britain has made in decades.

It was simply a vote against immigration and nothing else.

U.K is awash with E.U migrants.

These migrants, up to 3m, are a hardworking lot and do steal jobs from the lazy British kids who take their opportunity for granted.

Truth is that there are enough jobs to go round.

The Brexit will discourage foriegn investment into the U.K.

But a weaker pound may boost manufacturing exports, a sector in which the Brits don't shine much. Their strength is in International finance.

For the Brits to do well from a Brexit, they may need to bribe companies through taX cuts and other breaks.

Thank you for this! I wish I could give you 1 million likes. The people voted pro brexit because of sentiments whipped up against immigrants. The truth is Britain is even lucky; at least E.U immigrants still have skills, work and pay taxes. What should a nation like Turkey that houses millions of refugees who aren't able to work or contribute to the economy say? The New Political Party is doing what Donald Trump is doing in the U.S to score cheap political points and gain popularity--promising jobs for the (sometimes lazy) indigenes whose jobs have been 'snatched' by immigrants' and also stiffer penalties for unlawful immigrants.

For the manufacturing, it's a fact that at least 50%of Britain's export is consumed by EU countries. Leaving the EU might bring barriers to trade such that other EU countries might source the goods bought from the British amongst other EU countries. So the pendulum might just swing either side.

However, only time will tell how Britain would survive this because there are already rumours that Scotland may call for a referendum soon to decide if they should stay with Britain or join the E.U.

A Good example of Goat.. false information

I wonder how a "wood cutter" could afford sending his son to Harvard without scholarship and then the boy decided to dropout!

I don't know a wood cutter that could also afford to send his son to one of the few secondary schools in the US that owned a Mainframe computer in the 80s.

That Bros can lie for Lai Muhammed

That story on your picture isn't that of Bill Gates... Bill Gates was born to a very comfortable middle class family that could afford to send him to Harvard without a scholarship of any kind not an ordinary woodcutter.

Stop misinforming people. That story is that of John D. Rockefeller.

I applied for this post, I wrote a test and was later interviewed. am starting on Monday. though the pay is low but I will learn a lot in the next 3 months. thanks to you and all the wonderful people on this thread.

The Founders of the company are my mates from Lautech. Seun also known as Imole and I were in the same dept in 100level. I actually saved the photo from his Facebook profile.

Learn all you can; congrats

This thread has been an interesting read thanks to the OP and since contributors. Many people living in Nigeria don't know what it means to change environments and the effects it can have health wise. That you're accustomed to mosquito bites doesn't mean malaria no longer kills. And that you've experienced cold in Naija doesn't mean you won't get cold when you experience winter.

OP, your sense of humour is top notch. kudos to you

Just saw this this evening

Guy,hold ur powerbank well o,its something you can't get easily in Nigeria.That your friend knows the value that's why he wants to buy it from you.

I told him I'll sell for 10k jale jale

queenfav:
When you buy a 50,000mah powerbank for 3000,damage to phone battery is definitely inevitable.Good power banks like anker,xiaomi and lumsing do not weaken phone batteries.But again,how many persons can afford to buy a 10000mah powerbank for 5k upwards with this prevailing economic hardship?I got xiaomi 10000mah powerbank from a guy here for 4500 and its very good!

And someone just gifted me this powerbank after returning from China... If I tell you how much he bought it after converting Yuan to Naira, you'd weep for this country.

A friend who picked up the power bank on my behalf is already asking how much I'm going to sell.

Xionez:
I like this.
The internet space is all about Ads. Delivering dynamic content to the users. OperaMini only offers static ads which doesn't go down well with websites which have advertisements as one of their source of revenue, if not the only source. Eg Amazon, eBay, Instagram etc etc.

So more content, more work, more RAM, more data, more tasks for the SOC, more battery drain.

With their with numerous open WiFi hotspots, near constant power supply and subsidized handhelds, its easy to constantly modify web experience.

But down here, such things doesn't fly.
They don't pay for our data, power supply is erratic, prizes of phones not subsidized (no payment plan to even speak of). Even payment for advertised services is difficult.

Slim and static and functional is the watchword in this case. This is where OperaMini thrives.
If we want dynamic and interactive with all the eye candy, we download the app. Ask Konga and Jumia.


In essence, Chrome doesn't fly here due to PRACTICAL reasons, but in theory, its okay as a browser.

I agree with you that it MAY not fly here (that statement is subjective because it depends on perspective) due to the practical reasons you gave but let tell you of my personal preferences.

1. I do not like having apps that don't offer me a better experience than i can get on a website. That's why I will never download apps for shopping online.

2. instead of installing multiple apps, why not install a container in which they can all function optimally? it'll save me disk space!

3. Some people don't care about data savings. I know someone who is a Glo postpaid customer. he gets 5gb every month. he still subscribes etisalat for his q5 and has spectranet internet at work. to him, data is nothing. he calls me to come and download sef so that the thing will finish

the point is opera appeals to those who love data savings above the user experience but it is not yet a better browser than Mozilla, chrome and safari (it doesn't even come close)
