I'm missing something and need a push in the right direction.
If I create a php file with the following content, and call it via a
browser, it works as expected.
<?php
echo "hello world";
?>
If I embed the same thing in a simple HTML file, I get nothing.
<html>
<body>
<?php>
echo "Hello world";
?>
</body>
</html>
I'm running
Mandrake 10.0
Apache 2
PHP 4
The php_mod is loaded for Apache.
I did the install for both Apache and PHP via Mandrakes built in rpm
management system.
TIA for any tips.

Fair enough. Although with the myriad different suffixes
out there today, '.php', '.asp', '.pl', '.cf' to name but a
few, I'm still unconvinced that surfers, inexperienced or
not, expect URIs to end in '.html'.
Also, I am seeing more and more URIs without suffixes on
television. Rightpondians can see the BBC's abbreviated
URIs, e.g. www.bbc.co.uk/weather -- that one's unfortunately
a redirection; hey, the beeb can't get it right all the
time, can they? If the big guns publish sensible URIs, the
practice will hopefully catch on soon.
[about chopping off URI suffixes]
That's what I will do in my next (testing) project, but for other
reasons. In short: With a URL like www.example.com/foo the server will
automatically decide according to the Accept header whether to send HTML
or XHTML back to the client. But I still want to be able to override the
content negotiation and force a particular content type if necessary, be
it for testing, for validation or simply for providing the same resource
in different formats (PDF for example). So to override the CN mechanismn
I would simply request /foo.html, /foo.xhtml or /foo.pdf if available.
Sounds good to me.
That's just the very basic idea, I still have to think about some things
and implementation issues.

First off...total noob to VB. So far have learned a lot in 1.5 days and
feel fairly comfortable at throwing screens up. However, I want to start
writing forms that revolve around an access database.
From what I have read to date it looks like VB can only display 1 record at
a time. I suspect this is not the case. How easy is it to display 10
records at a time (in a table format) that can be scrolled up and down ?

I'm wondering how/why this query works. Trying to get my head wrapped
around SQL. Basically the Query deletes from the Import table all
records that are already in FooStrings so that when I do an insert from
the FooStringsImport table into the FooStrings table, then I won't get
primary key violations.
DELETE FROM FooStringsImport
WHERE EXISTS
(SELECT * FROM FooStrings
WHERE FooStringsImport.FooKey = FooStrings.FooKey)

I'm a Python noob, and haven't yet figured out my way around the
Python documentation.
For example, suppose I learn about some great module foo.bar.baz,
and when I run the python interpreter and type "import foo.bar.baz",
lo and behold, it is already installed on our system, which means
that (knowing that our system is pretty bare-bones as far as python
goes) most likely foo.bar.baz is part of the standard python
installation.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
