Comments on "PHP Page Generator"? - Page 2

David

Comments on a program called PHP Page Generator? (
http://www.phppagegenerator.com) I received a email offer of $100 and
the product appears to allow quick generation of code for SQL web
searches, reports, etc.

Thanks

Hi David,

You seem to be sincere about this.
Sorry if we have been a bit negative and unfriendly.

I think I speak for most of us if I say:
- Sure, go ahead give it a try. It is your money and your time.
and
- The reason we are negative is simply that the package has all
characteristics of bad unneeded software (to us). Most functionality I saw
can easily be programmed by yourself.
and
- We don't understand why you spend money on a package when you have a
choiche of open-sourced available comparable packages.
and
- We don't understand why you ask for our opinion, if you ignore it.
and
- You had the looks of a spammer/plugger of the software in the first
posting. Mosty spammers do not respond as you do. Sorry for any
misjudgements.

So, go ahead, give it a shot. Really.
Nobody was talking down to you, but just to the package. It has all
appearances against (to us).

BUT: I think nobody who responded actually used the package, so again: Go
ahead, try it, and let us know what you think.
Good luck.

Regards,
Erwin Moller

Hi there,

I thought I would post a response to this thread since I actually bought the software thinking it would help me create php code faster than just downloading scripts off the internet and modifying them.

Unfortunately I was never able to connect to the database. First it said "Cannot make connection to database, make sure it's running", which it was because I checked it via myphpadmin. Then it said "establishi ng connection", which it didn't because it never actually read the database.

So, i thought well maybe I'll just setup the local files so I can at least start generating the code. Nope. Got stuck in an infinite loop of cancels because I didn't want to overwrite files I never even chose to edit in the first place, but just happened to be in the folder where the other files that I wanted to use were.

I've filed for a refund from American Express. In the future I will not act in haste and will find other alternatives, as you recommended.

I hope this helps others who are looking for answers. The only reason I found this board is because I couldn't get any support from the company. Their support email address: support@oursite office.com bounces. So I was looking for alternative "help".

break out of self-processing form without header("foo.php");

Hola, PHP folk! I have a php page that contains a self-processing form. The form holds search results.

The easy way to turn off automatic updates for Windows 10/11

by: Hystou | last post by:

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
