Hello
I would appreciate some help from someone who has knowledge of working with
css, php javascript and how they interact.
Ive been working on a task for the last few days and have started to hit a
brick wall. I need general advice on whether I m tackling the problem the
correct way and some solutions for my current problems
Ive posted my project below where ive detailed the current problems im
having http://www.iddsoftware.co.uk/test.php
in short im trying to allow my users to take their records from my database
and arrange them dynamically on a web page into custom reports. which they
can them print directly or download into something like Word
Hope you can help as that brick wall is looming

Another thing that is annoying when you open a reply to your post eagerly
thinking someone has answered your question, only to find it is just someone
moaning about something. That actually wastes time and is probably even more
annoying.

But many of them won't answer your questions.

He crossposted properly; something is wrong with your newsreader if you
are seeing the question more than once.
Still 6 groups does seem like overkill.

Not nearly as annoying as opening a message thinking you could help them
and finding it posted to umpteen different newsgroups - and the question
not even being applicable to many of those newsgroups (including the one
you're looking at it from).
You go ahead and keep posting to all kinds of newsgroups. Watch your
responses drop to zero.
A friendly suggestion - do a little homework. Find 2 or 3 newsgroups
which are appropriate to your question and post in those.

Then don't use usenet as your tech support service if you don't like
the fact that anybody can post anything in a public forum. Go to a
moderated newsgroup, or hire a consultant and you'll get more direct
answers.

For templating, personally I'm a big fan of smarty -- see http://smarty.php.net
CSS lets you separate styling from markup.
Smarty lets you go further, separating php scripts from HTML
content.
The HTML content is all in templates and the php scripts perform
all the logical operations, set the smarty template variables to be
filled in, etc. The smarty templates have directives to include
other templates, if/elseif/then logic, math and logic operators,
etc.

Top-posting is another annoying thing.
So is ignoring the fact that someone did in fact provide a valid answer
to your question, as I did.
But beyond that, one of the most annoying things is someone who solicits
help but then, when someone explains posting etiquette to him, gives a
response like "they'll live", showing a puzzling disregard for the very
people whose assistance he's hoping to enlist.

Granted that he crossposted rather than multiposting.

Yes. In fact, I think six is the maximum my news provider will allow me
to post to, reflecting their enforcement of Usenet etiquette.

Not as annoying as top-posting.

I make a great point of thanking those who provided me with useful
information even if it couldnt help me. Check back over the previous posts
(about first 3 except yours) and you will quickly realise my gratitude.
>PHP doesn't interact with either CSS or Javascript. To PHP, CSS and Javascript are just strings being written out as part of the web page, just as they HTML is. To CSS and Javascript, PHP doesn't exist, since they operate only within the browser, and the browser only knows what's on the HTML page it has been sent, and nothing about the programming used to generate and send that page.
Your response, I feel wasnt that valid really, much of this I already knew I
was, like most on these forums looking for something a little more specific
that addresses the problems I was having. I was going to say that your info
was as useless as a one legged man in an arse kicking competition, but I

You mean, ignoring the fact that it was true?

If you already knew that PHP doesn't interact with Javascript and CSS,
then why did you ask how PHP interacts with Javascript and CSS (as well
as JS and CSS with each other)?
like most on these forums looking for something a little more specific

That's hard to find if the question you ask is, at least in part, not
the one you want an answer to.

It wouldn't be the first time I've seen someone say something flip and
then follow it with a smiley in the sense of, "yeah, I know I just said
something obnoxious, but you're not going to hold me responsible for it,
are you?" I guess the difference between this and a smiley I would buy
is that in this case the flip line came by itself, rather than as an
amusing follow-up to some acknowledgment of the point that had been
brought to your attention. This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics |
