"Beginning PHP5, APACHE, MySQL Web Development" - help needed

eurozaf

Hello to all,

I have a book at my hands called:
"Beginning
PHP5, APACHE, MySQL
Web Development"
(written by Elizabeth Naramore,
Jason Gerner,Yann Le Sqouarnec,
Jeremy Stolz, Michael K. Glass
published by WROX on the year 2005)
in which it is mentioned that, if the readers are in need of help, they could look for it at this forum and especially at this Echo Lounge becouse here it is possible to find one of the authors of the book to look upon their problem.

So, if any of the authors or any person closely related with this book, is reading this post, i kindly ask him/her to contact me with a Private Message to ask him/her my question, cause i don't want to be boring and "out of the subject" of this Echo Lounge with my totally newbie question.

Thank you a lot.

Bunkermaster

Guilty as charged. PM me if you need a hand 😉

stolzyboy

yeah, i'm another, depending on the chapter, i'll give you a hand 🙂

Oh god they're all crawling out of the woodwork now...

LOL, piersk!

Also, welcome to PHPBuilder, eurozaf! You may notice that the PHPBuilder forum also has a "newbie" sub-forum, where, just maybe, no one is gonna flame you for asking a question again that was asked last week.

That said, if one has the inclination (as most of the book's authors did at one time or another), quite a lot can also be gleaned from the forum's search engine, or using Google with the string "site:phpbuilder.com" appended.

I tried to send private message to BunkerMaster and Stozyboy (apart), but each time i received this message:

"eurozaf, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

1.Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
2.If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation."

My account is enabled and activated, so i need privileges to send a PM to someone who is moderator and/or higher? If so how could i get them to contact with these people? please help.

My problem is explained at the "Newbies" sub-forum, under the title:
"Passing variables with Sessions".

eruozaf: The problem is that you haven't established yourself as a member in good standing yet. I don't know the limit, but all new members can't PM anyone until they reach a certain point. Not sure what it is (not sure that JP wants it known either).

NogDog

I believe you should be able to PM now.

eurozaf

Yes indeed NogDog! Thanks a lot!
