    Taking this a bit further....

    What I'm trying to do is include a different content file each day, so I tried this, but clearly doesn't work! What I want is to load (today) ./content/91.htm $pth['folder']['content'] = './content/'; $pth['file']['content'] = $pth['folder']['content'].$date("z")'.htm'; Thanks for your...

    Create a number for each day

    php newbie here. Could someone help with what I think is a simple piece of php? I need a number for every day of the year. e.g. Jan 1st = 1, Jan 2nd = 2,... Dec 31 = 365 (or 366). How can I do that in php? Thanks Liark

    Field pointing to same table

    Thanks, both. I have chosen Rudy's solution simply because I don't have to redesign the database, and it works a treat. Thanks to Lyndon too for your help. Liark

    Field pointing to same table

    Hi Lyndon, Thanks for the reply. No, the second record points back to the first record. The reason it exists is because a number of people in the list can select a 'partner' - which comes from the same list. This action populates both records. Liark

    Field pointing to same table

    I am a bit stumped. I have a table with an index, the table includes firstname, lastname, and a pointer to the index of the same table, different record. e.g. ID, FirstName, Lastname, Pointer where pointer is the ID of a different record in the same table. What I want to produce is a...

    formatting textarea box

    You can customise it as you wish. There are standard buttons and you can add and remove as you like. In the example I've used the advanced option but removed loads of buttons I don't want, and added a date button (plugin). The docs explain it quite well. Hope that helps. <script...

    How do I get rid of the space at the top of my webpage?

    Forgot to mention, to get the code bang smack up, change the table to: <table width="800" height="130" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" align="center"> Liark

    How do I get rid of the space at the top of my webpage?

    R21 This is a style problem, insert the code below in your <head> statement, between the <meta.... line and the </head> line, and it will work fine. On the other hand, you could take the code below (without the first two and last two lines), save it as a file in it's own right (style.css)...

    Sorting on the difference between two fields

    Unique matches in two tables

    OK, thanks. I have it working - I wrote the code a couple of years ago, but you're right - it is a world of hurt. I keep coming back to it trying to think of ways to normalise the tables. On day I will do a complete rewrite - as with a lot of things it grew organically, so I didn't really know...

    Unique matches in two tables

    Thanks for your help, guys. I'll elaborate a bit - both tables have many records. There is one record in table 1 (containing ten fields) which corresponds to many records in table 2 (containing ten fields). The records are linked by a key. So table 1 will have a key value (e.g. 1234) and in...
