Re: how to specify page title?

10-Nov-11 4:42

take a variable, say $Title, use it in header.php this way

PHP

<?php //if short tag are supported?>
<TITLE><?=$Title?></TITLE>
<?php //if not?>
<TITLE><?php echo $Title?></TITLE>

and in the main pages do like this

main.php

PHP

$Title="Title for Main Page";
require_once("header.php");

Table is the best solution for fomatted view and make sure all 4 part belongs to 4 different files

Table is okay but div is recommended because that is what I use for my page layout in all applications I write.

width is making crazy!

Hi,

Please check this:

http://www.rmc.bh/dept

and the same here http://www.rmc.bh/en/team

why the two boxed on the left (contents) and right (menu) is taking 50% even when I am setting 100% for the content and 200px for the menu?

here is the dept.php:

PHP

<body dir="rtl" lang="ar-bh">

<table width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="10px" border="1">
	<tr><td colspan="2"><?php include("header.php"); ?></td></tr>
	<tr><td colspan="2"><hr></td></tr>
	<tr>
		<td valign="top" width="200px"><?php include("menu.php"); ?></td>
		<td valign="top" width="100%">
			<h2>الأقسام</h2>
		</td>
	</tr>
</table>

and this is the menu.php just in case:

HTML

<html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
    .sidebarmenu ul{
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
    list-style-type: none;

    width: 180px; /* Main Menu Item widths */

    }

    position: relative;
    }

    }

you are making this page as utf-8

make sure the files are without BOM

Jassim Rahma10-Nov-11 23:14

10-Nov-11 23:14

http://www.rmc.bh/dept[^]

Also, one more question Johny...

I am currentlly testing the above page and it's fine then I will apply on all pages but I have noticed it's all somehow the same exvept big difference in IE.in positioning the contents when I use different browsers?

Here is the print screen of the same page on different browsers (browser name is the file name).

How can I fix it?http://www.rmc.bh/temp/dept.zip[^]

Thanks,

Re: Text to speech in PHP

In general there is some difference from browser to browser. the differences are mostly in Javascript and css.
But one thing you must have to notice you must have to close all the tag that has ending. as example div has start tag and closing tag, if you miss closing tag some browser will not make any trouble but some browser will fail

I'm doing a mini project on reading messages from forum using TTS.

I have tried searching many resources but I still couldn't find any free tts software. I'm just trying to implement in my mini project, not commercializing it or anything.

This link, http://www.phpclasses.org/package/4097-PHP-Convert-test-to-speech-using-Expressivo-service.html I thought it might work, but as soon as I used it, I got an error about the code about some unknown txt variable, although it was declared. Someone commented this is a paid service so I guess it doesn;t work now.

Can anyone help me in this matter? I'm using Dreamweaver CS5 and XAMPP's PHPMyAdmin as my database.

Mohibur Rashid8-Nov-11 5:05

8-Nov-11 5:05

I wont answer your problem,

Just inform you that phpmyadmin is not your database.........
you are using xamp, it mean you are using MySQL as database.

.htaccess question

Hi,

I am trying the URL rewriting for the first time on mysql server (Dreamhost).

I have create .htaccess file with the following:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^contact$ /contact.php [L]
RewriteRule ^team$ /team.php [L]


I suppose this will show www.mydomain.com/contact.php as www.mydomain.com/contact (without the extension) and that's what I want..

and it's working fine.. when I type www.mydomain.com/contact I am getting the page BUT.... I also get www.mydomain.com/contact.php when I type? so is there anyway NOT to show it with .php and just /contact?

hope i explained it well..

First of you might wanna read a bit on the Apache rewrite mod, which tells you everything you will ever need to know about rewriting URL's. But to get you started you need to look into the NC option as well as the QSA option in your rewrite rules.

Re: .htaccess question

Jassim Rahma7-Nov-11 21:33

7-Nov-11 21:33

Thanks for your reply..

This works fine But.....

Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^home$ index.php [NC,QSA]
RewriteRule ^contact$ /contact.php [NC,QSA]
RewriteRule ^team$ /team.php [NC,QSA]
RewriteRule ^about$ about.php [NC,QSA]

The user can go to contact page using /contact and /contact.php

How can I force /contact only (without the .php)?

and /home only (not /index.php)?

etc..
