Hi, I have a form using POST which has 3 buttons in it. In the php page that it calls I can't find which button has been pushed (warning newbie). I'm using if ($_POST['button_name']) and that works works if "button_name" is the button I pushed but referring to the other buttons gets me an...

Thanks hvass, I'll give it a go :) cheers Stephen I'm really not in management but I can't change my profile (I'm a programmer)

Thanks for that Kozusnik. I suppose I could then do it an Access front end. I realized I could do it with a Java application too, but hen I have to install JVM and all. I might end up doing it as a web app with Apache only listening to the local pc :) Cheers Stephen I'm really not in...

Hi, I have used MySql for web apps and I was wondering if there are any open source tools for building a Windows application to speak to the database. I want to do a one off rostering application for some friends and a web server etc is not necessary or desirable. Thanks for any help :) I'm...

That's it! You're both right, it's a line break. I wasn't familiar with how to put it in or get it out. This spreadsheet is a monster that little problem is the one I couldn't get of about 20 steps to prepare it for an import. Thanks very much. [2thumbsup] I'm really not in management but I...

Hi, I have a spreadsheet which I need to modify to import into a database. In some cells there are two values (one above the other). Does anyone perhaps know a trick for taking one of the rows (within the cell) and putting it into an empty column next to it? (it's a big spreadsheet!) [2thumbsup]...

HI, This is really simple content management I suppose. I want to let a user input some text via a form which updates text in a web page. I thought I would get the string from the user and then open the html page read through, it to a tag and then replace the existing text (up to an end tag)...

Thanks mate, I think you're right. That is just the thing to get me started. :) Cheers Stephen I should write something here.

Hi, I have a need to programmatically open an Outlook email and read the contents of the attachment into another file I am creating. Is it possible? Any help much appreciated. It would save a few people a lot of work. Cheers Stephen I should write something here.

Thanks Frank4d, I've had a good look on my local computer in those spots and the clues they give but no luck as yet :( Cheers Stephen I should write something here.

Ps. It's definitely not being done by an overt Group Policy action. :( I should write something here.

HI, I'm an DB application programmer in an IT dept and every few weeks I come to work and some of the registry values are overwritten, restricting various bits like the wallpaper etc. It drives me crazy ! I can't find how it is being initialised. The Operations people say it's not them. I'm...

That's the bit! Works like a dream. I will now be a legend amongst my work mates, all thanks to you! Also good, I can stop using our other archaic report building tools for these little jobs :) (and next time I'll go straight to the w3 manual) Cheers Stephen I should write something here.

Hi, I need to create a html page that will have page breaks where I want them so that they will print correctly on separate pages. Can anyone please help? Tables cannot have a fixed max size, are there other ways? cheers Stephen I should write something here.
