    Using get_file_contents() with a dynamic URL

    I have a URL that when entered returns a file. It's something like http://yourdomain.com/file.php?fileID=43433. If I enter that URL I will get the image or document that I'm looking for. No HTML at all. Just the file. Now, I'm trying to use the following line to capture that file in order...

    PHP Recursion problem - value returns null... variable scope issue?

    In my 3 years of PHP application development I don't think I've ever been this perplexed. It is rather difficult to explain, but hopefully it makes sense. For brevity I'm not giving details about the database table structures. Really it is irrelevant for what my problem is, which appears to be...

    I have a SELECT dropdown that is being updated dynamically through Javascript. However, the width of the dropdown never changes. It is always the width that it starts out as.

    Qmail not receving? This is strange...

    We had one user who stopped receiving email this morning. I verified this and after a server restart he started receiving email OK again. However the emails during that downtime are nowhere. There are NO emails in qmail's queue and they didn't get bounced back. So what HAPPENED to these emails?

    Force empty form fields on load

    I've seen sites that force form fields to load empty, regardless of the browser's auto-populate settings. How does one do this? I've looked everywhere for info on this but have come up empty.

    Confirm / Redirect script not working

    For years I've used this script and it worked just fine. I'm not developing a site on a new server (that shouldn't have anything to do with the problem). Check it out: function confirmation(message, url) { if (confirm(message)) { window.location = url; } else { return false; } }...

    Storing files in MS SQL using PHP?

    Does anyone know the most effective way of storing files in an MS SQL database? I typically use MySQL and use the BLOB field. Is this the correct method in MS SQL as well?

    I am not normally an ASP developer, but I have a small project that I must finish up today. I'm trying to accomplish pagination and I have it all, but for some reason no matter what I do to set the recordset's AbsolutePage property, it comes up as -1.

    PHP-generated emails are blocked... Urgent

    We recently obtained a server with Plesk 7.5 Reloaded on it. We've made a few customizations, but nothing much. Certainly nothing to qmail.
