But then how would that incorporate the coding skills of this forum? And what's the point of doing this? Isn't that the whole idea behind W3Schools?

Given what, Jonas? Why would you need to combine C# and PHP?

Easy to remember names. Instead of calling the sessions class "rfgjf424fasf", call it "sessions" so everything is simpler to read and so on.

We could do that, and we could also depend on classes and things with generalized names so it's easy to call a variable. (e.g. $session=>name)

Justsomeguy is right, it is possible to make all of the teams work together at the same time. All of the implementation of code into the HTML can be done after both sides are done on their parts.

By the way, another way to do this is make your server pace the file downloads. Pacing is when the server doesn't allow your connection to download faster than a set rate. Now, I've looked all over for a link on how to do this, but I can't find it---does anyone know how to do it?

Ya, the reason most forums have that layout is because it's well tested and seems to work out the best, including the fact that it's more appealing to people too. :)That's very, very cool---amazing job. Professional!

And if they do write the module (BIG IF) then an admin would have to come install it---instead of installing the module, why not just ask the admin to do it?

Hey, great idea! A blog could be done. And it would pretty much implement server side, javascript (ajax adding and so on), and an html/css interface. That's one of the tops on the idea list :)And ya, your blog software was amazing, aspnet....you could have sold that. It was so professional!

Windows is an OS. It has it's own ways to store data (the registery, temporary files, so on), so a motherboard can't access anything it's doing unless windows wants it to. And that's probably not going to happen. The motherboard just takes what it's given. The only way to do this would be to A. Format the hard drive (probably not an option in your case)B. Ask your brother for the password (pretty please?)C. Take out the hard drive (if it's a new computer), buy a connecter, and plug it into another computer as an external drive. :)All our pretty taxing. Your choice :)Also, I was playing with a circuit I had made a while ago---what it did was checked the temperature of the room. If it was hot, it would turn on my room fan. Problem was, i had to connect it to the 110 volt outlet....so I touched a badly connected SCR-transistor joint to check if it was working. Just to tell you, it was working. *shivers*

You'd be surprised---we were discussing making the guestbook the whole project. And not if we use server side classes included onto the page, along with linked JS files. Then everyone can only use the includes to run their specific page.And also, guestbooks can be pretty complex, as the rest of the mods explained. You could have AJAX adding, drag and drop boxes, swear filters, searches, cool fading effects, using ajax to have to never change the page that you're on, just include it in...there's lots of stuff you can do.

That's a point. But you also must remember there's bug testing to do in that time, and it's not like everyone will be work 24/7 on this project---the probable amount of man hours you'd get is around ~50-60. Also, I was thinking making a complete CMS or something like that, but breaking it up into sub projects, one after another. For example, the first project session, we'll make a complex guestbook. Next, we'll make a news system. Then we'll make something else, like a calendar/time system. Then we'll make an admin panel and put it together. What do you all think?

Within a couple of hours we have 3 pages of posts? :)Again, I note that the reason there's a 3 week time limit is so that everyone can see that an idea that would take more time than that is out of our reach. That's why, for now, I suggest something simple. Think about that

Thanks for answering the questions, aspnetguy. I've been pretty busy, and will be out for the next 2-3 days...so keep the suggestions coming, i'll look over them when I get back.

This is just embarrassing. I can't offer my apologies enough! I dunno, I was just off these days I guess. Or maybe I'm a bad javascripter?Final edit, I promise.

The project is just so that everyone in the community can have a bit more experience working as part of a team on a big application. The point of this topic is so that everyone can submit ideas for the application. I'll then put them on a ballot, and everyone on the forum will vote on which one they'd like. Does that make sense?

Hello,I said a 3-week limit because any project that would take longer than that to code is not considered. So maybe it might be less than 3 weeks, but not by much. :)Your idea is pretty good. I'll put it on the ballot when that gets started :)Does anyone else have any suggestions?Choco

Do you have questions about the forum community project? Comments? Suggestions? Just post them here!This topic is only for discussion. Later on, it will be cleaned and made into the voting topic. For now, no nominations or anything like that, just discussion.

Well, first of all, have you tried using the "switch" statement in php? It's a bit more orderly than using a couple of ifs/elseifs. Here's your code in switch: switch($_GET['v']) { case '' { $page = "phpbody/home.php"; } case '1' { $page = "phpbody/contact.php"; } case '2' { $page = "phpbody/limousines.php"; } case '3' { $page = "phpbody/about.php"; } case '4' { $page = "phpbody/sthummer.php"; } case '5' { $page = "phpbody/suv.php"; } case '6' { $page = "phpbody/bmw.php"; } case '7' { $page = "phpbody/hummerh2.php"; } case '8' { $page = "phpbody/gallery.php"; } } See if that works?

Argh! I'm so sorry! Here's how to fix it: <form><input type="text" value="Search" id="txt" /><input type="button" value="Submit" onclick="winLoc()" /></form> I made the error again

Hey,Sorry, I made a stupid capitalization error <form><input type="text" value="Search" id="txt" /><input type="button" value="Submit" onclick="winloc()" /></form> Replace your form code with that. It should work :)Real sorry for the mistake!Choco

Also, when setting cookies in javascript, if you do:document.cookie="blahblahblah", it's equivalent to doingdocument.cookie+="blahblahblahblah".Meaning, if your cookie is "zoop" at first and you say document.cookie="zap", your cookie's value will now be zoopzap.

Or you could put this right before the </body> tag: <script type="text/javascript">document.getElementsByName("abc").value="filename.swf?id="+x;</script> That should work too

Here you go. <html><head><script type="text/javascript">function winLoc(hlder) { firloc="put the www.xxxxxx.com here"; val=hlder.value; window.location.href=firloc+"/"val+".html";}</script></head><body><form><input type="text" value="Search Text" id="txt" /><input type="button" value="Submit" onclick="winloc(document.txt)" /></form></body></html> I think that's what you want.

I beg of you, joecool, to stop bringing up these old topics! We've had about 200 new topics about this, yet you choose to bring up the one from october. Please don't.Thanks.
