real_illusions

news section would be good in keeping upto date with the latest happenings in the internet world and where we can discuss those things.a community section as in general chat...hmm...dont think this forum needs one.(and i'd be willing to help too if you need it)

http://www.w3schools.com/html/default.aspread the tutorials first.if there is anything you dont understand after reading through the tutorials several times then come and ask us and we'll help you through understanding it:)

you need a php script to process the information for you, and send an email.http://formtoemail.com is a very easy and simple one to set up and use.when you download the script, have a look to see what it does, and how it works.however, you have a password field in there, and i dont know how to go about it with the password.hopefully someone else will be able to fill you in about it. however, we may need more details, like is it a username/password combo with a database, or just a common password or what?

you need either javascript or php or flasha simple slideshow would be all 3, however, if you want the picture actually flashing, then i guess only flash would be your answer.but since all are kinda complicated to learn completely, i'd say your better off looking around on the web for javascript slideshows that are close to what your after.

just 1.5no other numbers on the end that i can see

i know this is nothing to do with w3schools..but i've just found out that google has banned bmw's site from its rankings.http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/4685750.stm

according to my firefox, i have version 1.5and all those forum thingies you mentioned do you work for me

ahh..now i get you. they just line up one after the other.yes you can make it so they line up left, center and right no matter what size browser.not sure how you go about it without tables, without experimenting with divs.but with tables, <table width="100%"><tr><td align="center" width=33%><FORM METHOD=POST ACTION="/web/page"><INPUT CLASS="CBUTTONNORMAL"style="ALIGN: left; WIDTH: 20%"TYPE=SUBMIT NAME=PREVVALUE=Prev></td><td width="33%" align="center"><INPUT CLASS="CBUTTONNORMAL"style="ALIGN: center; WIDTH: 45%"TYPE=SUBMIT NAME=REFRVALUE=Refresh></td><td align="center" width="33%"><INPUT CLASS="CBUTTONNORMAL"style="ALIGN: RIGHT; WIDTH: 20%"TYPE=SUBMIT NAME=NEXTVALUE=Next></FORM></td></tr></table> i've changed the size of the buttons too, and into pixels, so the writing appears on them at different browser sizes.

it works here in both firefox and ie6maybe its the way your putting them in the rest of the page??

www.ripaway.com works here.

while its useful knowing them all (and i dont ), i would use the most common ones.% and pxpercentage and pixels.i always use them 2, and not the others. i believe they are more universal, especially in images and photoshop. if you use the same one for everything, then you've got a better idea when writing the code on what its going to look like and can use it better on how things are going to look with other things.as for text, since some people alter the text size on their browser, for instance people who cant see very well they have bigger text, so, i would go for "small, smaller, larger" etc.. compared to 'normal' sized text...i'm not sure if it works as i haven't tested it out, so someone with more experience can probably answer that better, like the relative text sizes stay the same..

the scrollbar only works in ie, so i'm guessing your not using ie.if you are using ie, then switch to firefox :)if its not working in ie, then i dont know, as i use firefox and dont bother with scrollbar colouring.

why shudder? google is one of the greatest things that has happened for the net. its revolusionised (or however its spelt), the way the internet works. and i bet it cost quite a bit too.there similiar things here in uk, and they cost an arm, a leg and maybe some other body parts as well as a smallish loan, perhaps a re-mortage..ok..maybe not that bad but you get the idea..

finally..success!!!thanks alot for your help and patience.but be warned, if i ever need php help, you'll soon know about it :Di think that concludes the longest topic on here i've taken part in..nearly 400 views too. (although half of them were me probably )

i'll see how that goes tomorow nighttoo sleepy now thanks for your help and patience so far:)

thanksslowly getting therebut what happens if i need more things in the email thats sent to me? like name and any other fields on the form that i have??

you were on about the one i posted?!?i was on about formtoemail one:)either way..neither works.although the formtoemail one doesn't work better. its just the headers that are a problem with that one.the other one, whole host of problems, sent to the wrong email, stuff doesn't appear in the email i'm supposed to get etc etc..

there is no single or double quotes on the last line we keep changingi even tried adding in user headers and changing the order around on the last line, but that didn't make any diference. and swapping the single quotes for double quotes in the $headers lines. $subject = "email";$headers = "From: " . $_POST['email'] . "\n" . "Return-Path: " . $_POST['email'] . "\n" . "Reply-To: " . $_POST['email'] . "\n";mail($my_email,$subject,$message,$headers);$user_message = "Thank you $name for your email. Whatever else you would like to tell them in the email.";$user_subject = "Thank You";$user_headers = "From: " . $_POST['my_email'] . "\n" . "Return-Path: " . $_POST['my_email'] . "\n" . "Reply-To: " . $_POST['my_email'] . "\n";mail($user_email,$user_subject,$user_message,$user_headers); logically, it should work..but yet it doesn't.i keep getting the server email instead of my email as the "from" on the user email, and no "reply to" either.

yeah..the title/subject is apache on that last suggestion of yours instead of "email" or "thank you" or something.and the original email..i perhaps worded that a bit wrong. the email as in where its coming from. instead of the email it goes to, which is what i would like to say where its from, instead of the users own email like it does on some of them.does that make any sense?

mail($user_email,$user_subject,$user_message,$user_headers);mail($to,$user_subject,$user_message,$replyheaders);mail($to,$user_subject,$user_message,$user_headers);all dont work at all.mail($user_email,$user_subject,$user_message,$headers);works but makes it so the user has received an email from themselves.and the very original you supplied doesn't send an email at all.and mail($to, $replysubject, $reply, $replyHeaders);sends an email but no original email or title. the title is "apache" and the email is the servers email thingy..which i dont want people to see..its kinda unofficial and not related to the sites name.

from one problem to another the emails now work. all the info goes to the correct person and is there in the email.however, the user, receives the email from themselves from the site. (tried it with another email account). so they can reply to themselves if they want. but its not exactly whats needed :)other than that, it seems to be going right at last...for now...till my computer blows up or something..or my head with all this code

still same problemhowever, i asked elsewhere and someone came up with this. this one is better in the sense that you can alter the email, and subject line that the user sees in their email. i receive both emails, however the one thats sent to 'me', as in the forms filled out, is blank. and i cant work out why. this is the original script he gave me, however i added more fields like the name, message etc fields to the form. but i didn't add any others anywhere, that maybe the problem. i'm not sure.so if we can come up with somethings that a mixture of both, i can alter the email and subject line that the user sees, and a copy of what they filled out in the form as well as me seeing the stuff i want to see in the email..that'd be great <?php$to = 'youremail@example.com';$subject = 'the subject';$replysubject = 'Email recived';$name = $_POST['name'];$email = $_POST['email'];$message = $_POST['message'];$headers = "From: $email" . "\r\n" . "Reply-To: $email" . "\r\n" . 'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion();$replyHeaders = "From: $to" . "\r\n" . "Reply-To: $to" . "\r\n" . 'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion();//Origonal messagemail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);//Return Message$reply = "Hello $name,Thankyou for your email, we will get back to you as soon as possible.Your Message was as follows:$message";mail($to, $replysubject, $reply, $headers);?>

yeahi've set it up and fill the form out so i get both of them to the same email address.but since i only get one and thats the form filled out...tells me the confirmation email thingy doesn't work

it all works except for the confirmation emaili changed this line to the following to get rid of a similiar error that happened with / thingy i presume.$user_message = "Thank you $name for your email. Whatever else you would like to tell them in the email.";but i dont see how that stops the confirmation email.i get all the field forms and whatever else sent with no problem, and the user is sent to the thank you page with no problem. just no confirmation email is sent.
