I have some fairly basic data, a few columns and about 100 rows. From
time to time I might want to swap the columns or re-order the rows and
so it would be useful to hold the data in something like Excel.

However I don't want all the slush that comes from Excel when I output
to a table.

Is there any easy way around this?

Thanks

I have bigged it up before, but after getting the update today I chose to
report a minor bug from the help menu and it crashed the program.

LOL?

Hi,

I've been asked to take over support for a web based document server
(all kinds of files). Currently the user lgos in using a form and
then has a list of documents displayed based on their log in. Each
item is a direct link to the document.

This works but has a fundamental security hole that I want to fix. If
you get told what the URL of the file is then you can download it
without any log in. What I'd like to do is ensure that the user is
properly logged into the system before downloading the file.

My thought is to have the documents in a directory that Apache does
not have access to. The link on the document server is then to
server_doc.php&user=me&doc=21 (properly implementing sessions rather
than passing usernames around is another security hole on the to do
list but one that is a lot easier to solve). PHP then checks the user
is logged in and authorised to see the document and serves it with
the appropriate MIME headers.

In psuedo-code what it does is:

For reasons of my own, I am cracking on with learning JS again. Yes Geoff,
Ben was round answering questions yesterday.

I've been looking up break-downs of how exactly the syntaxes I've been
copying work _character-for-character_ and came across so bloody many
scripts just for preloading images. Everything from my library record of;

if(document.images)
{
image1 = new Image(WIDTH,HEIGHT);
image1.src = "xxx.jpg";
}

To one generated by Dreamweaver which includes 'for', 2 'var's & 3 'if's

Will the first do my job or do I need to state image paths and variables??

Thanks in advance.

Hi All,

I'm trying to change the format of my website www.placesihavebeen.com
to a cleaner look at www.placesihavebeen.com/test

I've changed something in test/style.css and it seems to have screwed
up the positioning of my main box. I can't work out for the life of me
what's gone wrong and I'm hoping someone will be able to put me
straight.

On the test site the main big image now overlaps the grey box
underneath it, so that the top of the box now follows on straight
under the drop-downs on the right, rather than under the image. Why???

Any assistance gratefully accepted.

Regards,
Tim.

hi all, this is my first post in here and no idea of the standards you
lot set but more than happy for any constructive advice, bearing in
mind I'm not a web designer and just doing this for a friend...
she seems happy enough, but it's hard to tell if she's being honest or
just doesn't want to complain
do you think it's too much and/or would you change anything ?

the font she wants (monotype corsiva) I think is hard to read and not
a standard windows font
also setting an alt font is difficult as hers at 12pt is about the
same size as century gothic (and other standard windows) look at 8pt

I'm curious to know what the first impressions of Chrome are from the
perspective of developers.

A few sites of mine which are fully W3C compliant don't appear to display
properly in Chrome, and for all the hype I don't really see much in the way
of major improvements, so I'm not desperately impressed.

Any other thoughts?

I have a customer who has a page with a form that they'd like to appear
as https but they're not taking credit cards or anything like that and
they don't want to spend much. Can anyone recommend, or suggest, a cheap
shared certificate type of thingy?
