    Don't understand file manipulation to read and write to a "flat file"

    I've created a test flat file called "users.dat". It has a three simple username password combinations separated by commas on three separate lines, like: username1,password1 username2,password2 etc. I've also created a simple php form to capture login in information. I'm having a terrible...

    Problem dynamically generating PhP table column from radio bttn option

    Here's my problem: I have two simple radio button options "Radians" and "Degrees" to pass to a Processor Page to dynamically populate cells in a Trig calculation table. So, I got the trig calculations working (give or take to rounding I need to apply ). <b>What I can't figure out is how to make...

    Hoping to use DW CS5 to view PhP Site Locally?

    First off, if you can send me any pertinent links, I'd appreciate it.

I understand Javascript well enough...

    Enabling Option buttons for an interest /principal calculator

    This might be the last question I post on exercises I'm doing in this Javascript book I've purchased -- it really isn't giving enough background for novices to do the exercises based on the examples and explanations. So the question is: "modify the javascript code so it provides for the option...

    disabling form field using Javascript

    Note: If I'm posting here, this is my last resort. I've been working with this book problem for two days, to no avail. It's not a great book but I'm stubborn. The code and html to follow is for a principal / interest calculator. The problem to solve: after the calculation is executed...

    New Template Question : Template updating from a template?

    I'm using Dreamweave CS3. I've figured out this template thing (I think). But I actually have two versions of pages for my site. I created one template, "A" as the master template for the site with all links, headers and footers. I think created template "B" from A for special sub pages for...

    Linking content through templates

    Even though I'm learning Dreamweaver (CS3), I don't know exactly what I should ask or search for,so I'll describe it. I have a div tag within a container on my home page called "header_footer_row" as well as a Left Nav vertical div tag. When I finalize the layout for the home page, I would...

    Changing Colors when using Brush Libraries?

    I'm using Illustrator CS 1, PC. I applied a custom border brush and a text separator brush effect to lines from choices in the brush libraries. While I like the effect, I am unable to change the color of the effects (I want to either make them black, or apply one of the spot colors I'm already...

    Mathematical Symbol in Illustrator

    I'm using Illustrator CS1, PC. I can't seem to figure out how to make the math symbol <, > in Illustrator. I've looked under all the character sets / fonts including wingdings & webdings to find it. Typing the "<" and then drawing a line under it almost works, but it always looks out of...

    Illuustrator CS freezes when I increase artboard size???

    I'm running CS on a PC Pentium 4 with 1.5 Gig RAM, so I don't know why I'm having the problem. Unfortunately, buying a MAC is simply not an option to solving the problem for me. I created a letter size flyer that has a rather complicated headline text graphic that combines gradients, and give...

    3D text that follows the contour of an image?

    The best example I can give is thinking of Clark Kent's job at The Daily Planet. Remember how the words "Daily Planet" were 3D and wrapped around the globe? I have no problem giving text a raised effect using the blend tool or the 3D tool. How do I make it wrap with that sort of "daily...

    Opening Quark 5 & 6 in Indesign CS

    I'm using Indesign CS on a PC. I'm able to take Mac Quark 4.x files, add the .qxd extension, and open them in InDesign CS. I'm not able to open Quark 5 & 6. Is there an upgrade or plugin that will allow me to edit and work on Quark 5+ files in Indesign CS?

    Converting Bitmaps-same question as Lokisfenris?

    I read the previous post about conversion; this could be the same question. For a school project (not commercial use) I want to take an existing major brand logo for a car company and modify it in Illustrator for cool effects. I thought this would be simple. The only accurate logos available...

    DUH. Crop Tool is locked?????

    I've been trying to crop images I've opened up in Photoshop CS: one was a bitmap, and the other a PDF. The crop tool will only let me draw a PROPORTIONAL Crop box -- meaning a perfect square. My images I want to crop are rectangular. I thought I could do this before with no problem. Is there...

    In layman's terms, what is trapping and how do I do it?

    I'm using Illustrator CS, and also have access to Photoshop CS and InDesign CS. I have two logos I was told needed to be "trapped". There are four PMS colors that are adjacent to each other, and our in-house printer needs to have trapping applied to avoid registration problems. So, where do I...

    Lost Icons on Illustrator CS?

    I'm using Illustrator CS / PC version. When I go to open Illustrator Files in Windows XP, there used to be very clear icons that differientiated an ai (Illustrator File) from an Illustrator 11 eps or Legacy EPS file. Now, they're gone when I try and choose files. The files still open when I...

    Slow 3D rendering?

    I'm using Illustrator CS. I have a Pentium 4 2.8ghz Hyperthreading Dell with 512 RAM and a 7200 RPM hard drive. I just started experimenting with the 3D feature. "EXTRUDING" works fine, but trying to BEVEL usually locks up my computer with the RENDERING ARTWORK message. This is with preview...

    Paragraph Palate separate from Type Palate?

    Using Illustrator CS. This is a DUH question. When working with type, the PARAGRAPH tab is usually a tab behind CHARACTER when you choose type (or ctrl - T) from the Window Menu. Somehow, when I choose Type, the paragraph choice is separate. Somehow I must have "unhooked" them. How do I...

    Illustrator Files For Use as imbedded email files

    I'm using Illustrator CS, and MS Outlook 5.5 corporate version as my email client. We've been creating a lot of our flyers using Illustrator for our sales team (Yeah, I know I should be using InDesign, but I haven't taken the indesign class yet). I create the file in Illustrator and save it as...
