  1. I find it Increasingly unnecessary to wonder whether my price is too low or to high when I know the track record of my client's overhead structure. For example, if I'm creating a commerce site, I know the payback multiplier MUST be at least 20:1, in a retail situation, for my client to be profitable. Failure to produce on that stat will lead to economic failure for my client guaranteed. Requirements will vary by category and a business' specific situation. That means, in this example, my client must earn $20 for every dollar they spend with me and on every other dollar they spend on their site just to break-even. That's axiomatic and non negotiable if my client is to profit from my work. Otherwise, a commerce site turns into a not-for-profit site which is OK if that's the explicit understanding at the beginning of the job. Do not be fooled. The only reason a business ever hires a vender is ultimately to make money. The more money the better. Ace that question and the other four take care of themselves. In a nation of supposed capitalists, It is a terrible irony that this analysis is almost always missing especially when it's so easy to do.
  2. I've never written code that displays db results in mult pages. I found the LIMIT clause at: http://dev.mysql.com.../en/select.html and thatseems to be the critical code to solve my problem. I'd like to know if there's an easierapproach that wouldn't involve LIMIT to display db result in mult pages? EDIT: My thinking would turn the offset of the first row to return and and the maximum numberof rows to return into variables of course .
  3. Thanks donesuk. I've never used jquery, but I know javascript. Your post looks like an excellent opportunity to familiarize myself with jq. So, before I continue I'll do the tutorials and start a new topic when I have questions. Thanks again for the entree.
  4. OK. I get it. Thanks jsg. Time for a break. This is how I used what you said: onclick="sortBy('sortby')" The value for the input box, of course, is separate.
  5. Is it possible to have two values for an input box; one to display and one to send to a function? If so, how are they declared?
  6. Ebay's sort function feels like JS, but I can't find their sort by options on Firebug. What do you think?

    PHP Min Max

    What error messages are you getting? Many errors are possible.
  8. That requires an ajax call :http://www.w3schools.com/php/php_ajax_intro.asp
  9. Thanks again for another great topic dsonesuk and Boen Robot. Your posts are patient and always complete. Thanks again.
  10. OK. So, adding 0px 0px 0px 200px; red/blue divs accomplishes the same goal. I would've of never thought to use position that way. Why did you choose position instead of float? Could it have been done with float (I wasn't able to -- hense this topic)?
  11. Sorry dsonesuk. Dead page. Any others you can think of?
  12. What about dynamic sites? The pages don't actually exist.
  13. My understanding is everything in the meta tag, the h tags and in the p tag gets spidered.
  14. I thought changing #left_bg from position:absolute; to float:left; would help me, but it didn't . Also, I'm unclear about how to use #left even though you've explained it twice. I could give the red/blue divs margin: 0px 0px 0px 200px;, but that's not what I want to learn. Please be show me more if possible.
  15. I'm working with the third option. I added a float:left; to #wrapper. http://www.lincolnsrealdeals.com/test_120621.php The background image is covering half the width of the red/blue divs and I can't separate them. How do I do that? Also, I'm unclear what you want me to do with the #left.
  16. The city I live in posts the the feed of their traffic cameras with a 15 second refresh rate at http://www.lincoln.n...pwcam.asp?ID=47 How do I learn to post something like that? Would it be the same as an image given the refresh rate?
  17. How do I get the image in the right div to a height that matches the height of the div to its right based on this link? http://www.lincolnsr...aded_120620.php
  18. Turns out changing the center div from margin:0 auto; to float:left; cleared the problem I was having. Though, I'm still fuzzy about clear. Please restate the reason for clear: or suggest a link that describes the problem issue because I want to understand.
  19. I added clear:both; and removed the height, in the left div, and nothing happened. Then, I added overflow:hidden; to center div and I got much more of what I need except now there's a white column between my image and my center div, that I can't identify with firebug. This link displays what I need except the image needs to be almost touching the center div. http://www.lincolnsr...aded_120620.php How should I be using clear:both; based on this link to make my left div almost touch my center div?
  20. My left div is disrupting my center div and I don't know why. If I give my left div a height, it leaves my center div alone. Why is that? http://www.lincolnsr...aded_120620.php Ideally. I'd like my left div to be as high as my center div, but I have to get past this issue first.
  21. You should be able to save a html file as a php except when it's not a stand alone file. You'd probably have to know what depends on what to do that successfully in wordpress.

    type casting

    This should help: http://php.net/manual/en/language.types.type-juggling.php
  23. Success! Very cool So Called. Boen Robot and especially you made this a great topic. You've demystified an important topic for me. Both of you did excellent work to !
  24. This is the only code in my index.php file: <?phpecho $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];?> ... and I got a file not found error instead of an echo. Any ideas?
  25. I've successfully made the change and enabled rewrite_module. What should I be looking for?
