Hi Gurus
What I would like to do is to setup a little form where people can put in a
date (e.g. Day: [....] Month..... [....] Year [......], where ... is user
input) and subsequently, will take them through to an anchor (<A
NAME={date}></A>), relating to the date that they selected. As you may have
worked out by now, I am a real novice when it comes to java script.
I have a browse using Google, but so far no luck
Let me know if you can help
Cheers

Instead of a link, how about just going to the page?
Will this get you started? Watch for word-wrap.

You can start by consulting the comp.lang.javas cript FAQ with regards to
top-posting and trimming your quotes. As for the PHP, it would depend on
what your server offers. It may offer PHP, ASP, PERL, nothing, or some
other language. Then, you can ask in a related newsgroup about how to
write the proper code to set a Location Header. http://www.php.net/

Thank you for that answer and I am sorry about my lack of understanding

var dd=document.for ms['DF'].elements['mm'].value;
var dd=document.for ms['DF'].elements['yy'].value;
document.locati on.href = "#" + yy + mm + dd;

But, what happens is that I get the following in the address bar:
blah blah/go.html?dd=31&m m=10&yy=2004
While I would prefer to get go.html#3110200 4
How would I go about this.

You probably copied & forgot to update the var names, I think this is
what you meant to do:
var dd=document.for ms['DF'].elements['dd'].value;
var mm=document.for ms['DF'].elements['mm'].value;
var yy=document.for ms['DF'].elements['yy'].value;
Then build the string:
var loc='go.html'+ "#" + yy + mm + dd;
alert('loc = '+loc);
document.locati on.href=loc;

I don't think that http://20040923.htm will display a page!
Perhaps you meant:
document.locati on.href = http://{domain}/{path}/ + yy + mm + dd +
".htm";
Otherwise good comments.

If I name my domain 20040923.html it might :) But you are correct.

Yeah, its the effects of answering in too big a hurry.

The fact that you are even getting that URL is surprising and points to
you testing it in IE only. What it *should* be giving you is
go.html?dd=31&m m=undefined&yy= undefined. But IE is picking up the mm and
yy from the name fields, which it shouldn't. Read the other reply with
regards to your var names and how to correct the URL issue.

You may be wondering why you would want to put your files “into” the database, rather than just onto the file-system. Well, most of the time, you wouldn’t.
In situations where your PHP application needs to store entire files, the preferred method is to save the file onto the server’s file-system, and store the physical location of the file in your database. This is generally considered to be the easiest and fastest way to store files.
