Re: PROBLEM WITH CHECKBOX

19-Nov-13 22:34

If you see this link now:

http://www.xoompage.com/profile?id=347692ca-47a8-11e3-bea0-782bcb3e3838[^]

the dropdown button is working fine but when I click on or MouseOver it and when the list appears it will move some elements on the page (e.g. profile photo).

I contacted the developers who said it's because the dropdown is inside a td and I should take it our of the td

Is there any solution? taking it out of the td is a major change.

I want the list to appear over the content without having to move other elements.

Please help..

Thanks

PROBLEM WITH CHECKBOX

HELLO

I am new to PHP and web based environment (noob), previously i was facing a problem with my code which is i cannot update the mysql table row when checkbox is checked... the idea is when checkbox is checked, then the value is +1. This is somehow likely to update the row on the table..

here is the code: (sorry if the code are messy because i also find the code in internet and edit it)

PHP code:

XML

<html><body>
 <?php
$con = mysql_connect("localhost","faiz","faiz");

if (!$con)

  {

  die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());

  }
mysql_select_db('log');

$sql = array('candidate1', 'candidate2', 'candidate3', 'candidate4','candidate5','candidate6','candidate7','candidate8','candidate9','candidate10');

if(isset($_POST['Submit']))
{   $candidate = $_POST['candidate'];
   $values = array();
    foreach($sql as $selection )
    {     if(in_array($selection, $candidate))
            { $values[ $selection ] = 1;  }
        else
            { $values[ $selection ] = 0;  }
         } // end of foreach.

$sql = "UPDATE admin SET candidate1=candidate1 +1 WHERE candidate = candidate1.
mysql_query($sql,$con) or die('<br/>Error reading database: '.mysql_error($con));

header("location:  ");

mysql_close($con);
}  // End of, if statement from the button check
?>
</body></html>

AND HERE IS THE INDEX:

There are a lot of mistakes, some trivial, some logical, some syntatic, and there are others just did not make sense. Just to mention a few:
for the html part:
1. The values of checkboxes are all 1, in that way, we would not be able to know which ones are being voted.
2. The checkTheBox function only check up to 5 selections but there are 10 checkboxes and yet the subsequent code that followed is suggesting that one can only vote exactly 5 candidates. I am confused.
3. ...
for the php part:
1. The $values is never used after the foreach.
2. The sql statement does not make sense.
3. The header is incomplete and in the wrong place.
4. ...
May I take a look at the database table admin, what are the fields and their data types?
I will try to suggest sometime if it is not too time consuming.

You might have better luck on the Mozilla support site[^]. However, a quick search turns up this article[^], which suggests that Firefox is still running in the background.

Problem with RewriteRule

Jassim Rahma18-Nov-13 2:00

is that time to enable GZIP Compression?

18-Nov-13 2:00

Hi,

I want to ask a question.. is there anything I should consider on host in order to make sure the RewriteRule will work fine?

Here is my problem:

PHP

RewriteRule ^profile/(.*)$ profile.php?id=$1 [NC,L]

This code will work fine when I try it on localhost like this:

http://localhost/profile/347692ca-47a8-11e3-bea0-782bcb3e3838[^]

but will not work when I use:

http://www.xoompage.com/profile/347692ca-47a8-11e3-bea0-782bcb3e3838[^]

It's just going back to home page without throwing any error.

However, I am sure there is no problem with the page because I am able to browse it using:
