Hi all, I'm new to C# but I'm really enjoying learning it. I've just started a little exercise to try and make a BlackJack simulator. Using 'Lists' to hold the cards etc. My form shows the possible 5 cards that the Player can hold as Labels (PlayerCard1, PlayerCard2, PlayerCard3 etc). I want...

Hi all, I'm trying to optimise my website. I have a large "functions" file. It is 'included' on every page. Is there any speed gain to having one large functions.php file OR is it faster to have an include file that checks what page the visitor is on and then 'includes' a specific small...

Hi, I have a form on my site that allows people to upload images from their hard drive to my site. I wondered if it was possible to allow people to enter an URL into the form, but instead of "hotlinking" the image that they enter, could a script automatically get the image and upload it to my...

Hi, I've got a music player on my site that launches in a new window. I don't want to display the "launch music" link if the window is already open and playing. This problem is driving me nuts... Here is where I'm up to: <script type='text/javascript'> if(!new_win) { var new_win; } function...

Hi, I've got a script that lists the elements in an array (a shopping cart): foreach($cart as $cart_item) { $product_id = $cart_item->product_id; $category = $cart_item->category; etc etc } The above code allows me to index through the array but I wondered if there is a way of 'ordering' the...

Hi, I'm trying to write a regular expression to check if someone has inputted a valid name for themselves. I started off by just making sure they had entered a-z or A-Z or spaces. But I quickly realised that there are names like O'Brian and those names with the funny accent over the 'e' and the...

Hi, I'm trying to write a script that will allow a user to search my database for peoples names or their year of birth. I was thinking along the lines of: SELECT * FROM my_db WHERE first_name LIKE '%$searchString%' Is the above a good way of searching for somebodies name? I'm strugging with...

Hi, I'm really new to regex's and wondered if you could just double check these for me. The first two are working (appear to be) the last one isn't. function check_only_alphabet($string) { // THIS SHOULD ONLY ALLOW a-z, A-Z and spaces - it seems to be working return preg_match('%[^a-zA-Z...

Hi all, I have found this line in a script and I'm wondering what it does. $extra_vars = $this->someFunction(); How is this line different from just: $extra_vars = someFunction(); I've tried searching for the answer on google but I'm getting nowhere. I'd really appreciate it if someone could...

Hi, I'm currently developing a website based on Wordpress and I've noticed a few times in the scripts that the author has used <?= instead of <?php Is there any reason for this? Is there any differences between the two? Also, while I've got someone's attention who knows what they're doing...

Hi, I've got a logo I'm trying to draw that includes some text and an image on a background. I can't get the text and image to be transparent to let the background through. I've upload where I'm up to so that you can see what I mean... I don't make mistakes, I'm merely beta-testing life.

Hi I have a worksheet that has a 'date' column. I wondered if there was anyway of making Excel popup a date picker if I click on the cell. Its a pain to have to keep typing 01/07/07 , 14/07/07 etc etc I've searched on Google and on Office Online but couldn't find anything.. it seems like such...
