Yes.

1) Your thread subject doesn't indicate a problem, or much less anything at all, except maybe there's a question.

2) You don't give us any indication of what the problem is, or if there even is one. Don't know about anyone else, but I don't feel like playing Blues Clues.

3) You ask a yes or no question. If someone answers with a simple "yes" or "no", it's because they're just answering your question.

TheDefender

Yes.

Just answering your question like LordShryku said... It's part of the new me on the boards :evilgrin:

1/ Get over it
2/ I don't know what the problem is, the code does not work.
3/ Well done it is a yes no question. If yes you may feel like tell me what.

If you have a problem with a post don't reply.

1) You'll not get answers from a lot of regulars because of this. Last I looked, subject doesn't mean "mindless garbage".

2) Debug it yourself then, because you obviously can't handle anyone else's thoughts.

3) We also may feel like just answering your question as posted, which is probably not what your going for, now is it?

If you can't be bothered to spend any time with your scripts or your posts, don't expect anything from us.

1) Uhhhhhh........ OK.
2) How's about elaborating on what "the code does not work" means. How is it not working? What is it doing or not doing? What are you expecting it to do? Gotta give details.
3) Honestly, how can you expect us to tell you what is wrong if we don't know exactly what your problem is? There are some glaringly obvious things wrong, but I personally don't want to throw that out, because I am not even certain if this is all of your code? If it is, then know this... You are missing a huge portion of vital code right off the bat...

(Is that better LS? 🙂

Yes, it is very poorly indented.

Oh, and your subject lends no clue as to what your post is about. But you already knew that.

P.s., did you notice the people castigating you have a total number of combined posts on phpbuilder of nearly 10,000? We're not noobs who have no clue how PHP works or how etiqutte on the board works.

TheDefender

Techniclly over 10000. I have about 500 or so on an account I had a couple of years ago... I forgot the username when I went on a hiatus for about 4 months on a trip through Europe, last year... 🙂

NZ_Kiwi... The bottom line is this. You gotta give better details, and ask your questions a bit better for this particular thread so we know which problems to point out to you...

planetsim

You assign $url and $details a value

$url = $row2["url"];
$details = $row2["details"];

then

?>
<option value="<?php echo $row2["url"]; ?>"><?php echo $row2["details"]; ?></option>

<?php

😕

From my point of view this is a pointless thread, until you tell what your problem is besides many other things which i wont say no one will give you an answer your looking for.

I had something like 2000 as well on the old database.

One of you mods should sticky this as an example of how not to get people to help you...

Weedpacket

I put this in a sticky. Maybe I should include links to posts like this as a sort of "rogues' gallery".

I don't know, some people just seem to think the world owes them.

This guy just has no idea what "community" means.

My girlfriend and I are taking her car in to Midas today. I think, as an experiment, I'm just going to park her car, walk in to the lobby, hand the guy the keys, and tell him "can you tell me what's wrong?"

I guess this is not a good analogy, though, because he'll probably smile, and his eyes will spin back in his sockets and display dollar signs. Cha-ching!!! "I'd be more than happy to, sir..."

So I guess my response is, sure, I'll take a look at your code, Kiwi. It will cost you about $2500 or so, but there is a LOT wrong with it. And I strongly recommend an undercoat...
