Xslt Xml & Xhtml

gav240z — Wed, 26 Mar 2008 15:41:58 GMT

Ok so I am working on a project at work that involves XSLT. I struggling through it here as I have very little knowledge on it. I would like to know of any good resources for learning this technology or any good books one can recommend. I hate books that talk on a very technical level. Rather ones that explain in simplistic terms, what it does, what I can achieve and where its best applied. I know of a CMS called Symphony that uses this technology in its templating system, but I am unsure why its so powerful as opposed to normal CSS / XHTML? My understanding so far is that if you have data in XML form you can transform it into XHTML through XSLT. I think it also seperates some of the programming logic from the display layer. Any clarification would be appreciated. Cheers,

CSS Mistakes-CSS Articles-CSS Faqs

paul120 — Fri, 28 Mar 2008 13:40:04 GMT

CSS which stands for Cascading Style Sheets is a style sheet language that describes and alters certain attributes like colors, fonts, layouts and other aspects of the elements that are viewed on a web page. It is used to style web pages written in HTML and XHTML. Before getting acquainted with a particular thing, many questions come into the mind. The same thing happens with cascading style sheets also. People can get convenient answers to their queries on css-faq.com. With CSS, you will be able to write the codes regarding the appearance of your pages in a single file. You don�t have to modify over and over again. The repetition of tasks is eliminated in using this language. You can also replace tags throughout your entire page if you want to change it anytime in one file. You can edit the looks of your site just by simply modifying your separate CSS file. You need not to go through all your existing pages to change everything. You only need to touch the style codes of your style sheet file. Much effort and time is reduced with this language. You can have your pages load faster than before. It is possible since the file is not filled with long tags. Styles are defined and kept in another CSS document that can be linked and loaded only once every time somebody visits your site. Designers will be able to set font styles, font sizes and other properties just like setting them in your word processors. You can get the most accuracy you can desire. You are also not limited to just the seven font sizes set in HTML. You can do as much as layout and defining in CSS with regards to fonts and font sizes. The CSS syntax uses English words. Thus, it is very simple and easy to understand. The English keywords are used to refer to style properties of CSS. A style sheet is a set of rules. Each rule has one or more selectors and a block of declaration. You can get a lot of benefits in using cascading style sheets. There is vast information in the websites like css-faq.com. The only thing you need to do is to help yourself. For more details please visit us at CSS-FAQ (http://www.css-faq.com/)

ok..im not usually this stupid :D but what exactly do I need to download on Apaches site Download - The Apache HTTP Server Project (http://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi) To be honest I think it's a very badly structured website for newbies to PHP such as myself.

MySQL

Eye4It — Mon, 07 Apr 2008 16:49:25 GMT

I have downloaded and installed MySQL 6 for use with PHP, I have been advised to configure MySQL with no root u/n or p/w, instead, that I should locate the file "my.ini" in the MySQL directory, open it in Notepad and scroll down to the end, new line, and type "old-passwords". However, when I try to save this then (using Vista), I get the message: Cannot create the file C://Program Files/.....my.ini file. Make sure the path and the file name are correct. Can anyone help me with this?

Multi-Language Site

ziycon — Fri, 11 Apr 2008 00:53:06 GMT

I'm about to start work on a new project of mine and i want to build in the future functionality of multiple languages. The way i have it in my head is that i would have a select field on every page with the different menu options and using AJAX, when a user changes the language on any page the new language will follow the user throughout the site until changed again. Example: The index.php page has a default of English so it loads with the en.php file which holds all site variables in English. Once the language has been changed the the session variable that was set to en.php by default will change to the new language French by putting the fr.php into the language session variable. The problem is how do i refresh the page without reloading it completely. The reason being i cant see a way that the AJAX can reload all the page variables or am i wrong. If i enclosed the whole site in a span would it refresh upon a new language being selected? Any help appreciated as always.

Blue Dragon Server - free cold fusion

Spiralli — Thu, 17 Apr 2008 10:26:15 GMT

I really wasn't sure where to put this - sorry if I got it wrong. I was playing with this last night, and it looks interesting. Has anybody tried it? If I was to invest time in it, would I be able to deploy my cold fusion apps to a regular cold fusion host without problems? I'm also wondering what extra value I would be getting from Adobe if I forked over for their software (they've already fleeced me for CS3 Web premium). Are their any people on with PHP and coldfusion experience? I would like to hear your thoughts.

Php image upload help required

reverbstudios — Thu, 17 Apr 2008 13:30:13 GMT

I'm new enough to php coding and I'm trying to build a basic php driven template site from which I can take code snippets for other projects/sites. This template site will have all of the most basic dynamic functions including: * Membership * Login * Profile Update * Add, Delete, Update Product * Show items from database * etc.. I've managed most of this already but 1 small thing has got the better of me - image upload. I wish to include an image upload field in both my existing signup and profile update forms which grabs an image off the pc and stores it in the database then shows it in the profile. Anybody any ideas or code snippets - I specifically need a form with image upload included and not just an image upload script as I wouldn't know how to add that to my form?

need to pick a dotnet brain

JoeByrne — Mon, 21 Apr 2008 15:55:57 GMT

Im developing a .net CMS, the main problem with my current system is that someone setting up a site needs to know asp.net / have access to the code to implement the design. I want to seperate the design html from the master page - so i will create a dynamic master page loading in the html layout, finding content areas from keywords in the html and allow the user drop user controls into these areas. ( ie replicate what is done on graffitti cms ) i dont know if i should create a physical master page ( ie when they put in their UC's as save the template - save a page.master on the server or should i serialise the object and its settings and dynamically add the necessary user controls when a page is requested. As you can see im still at an earlly stage - but basically i want to seperate the design from the .net code and allow the user controls to be configured fro the backend -any properties that they expose can be set in the admin area. Any recomendations / info would be great.

Lightbox2 CSS help

Anyway I've also added the line of code for the image - see above "image #1" The preview in firefox simply shows a hotlink "image #1" which loads the larger image at the bottom of the page - not as it should...

Link to an iFrame

Ronan OF — Sun, 27 Apr 2008 19:55:09 GMT

OK, I have been wondering how I can get this to work. I am creating a splash page, with links to certain areas of content on my site. So this HTML splash page appears on its own separate. Now, the site is run from one page page with an iFrame in it, from which all the site's content is accessed. Now, on the splash page, if I create a link to a page within the site, how do I get the iFrame page to load with the content inside on the iFrame? Many thanks for anyone who can help. Ronan.

Youtube API (gdata) + Zend framework on shared hosting

failsafe — Mon, 28 Apr 2008 20:35:00 GMT

I'm trying to figure out how to implement the youtube API (http://code.google.com/apis/youtube/developers_guide_protocol.html) on a site of mine which is on (blacknight) shared Linux hosting. I'm finding it difficult to understand from the google documentation if this is possible, or if it's something that my host would have to provide or do for me. Has anybody got any experience with this or any of the other google api on shared hosting? I've done a fairly thorough search and all i can find is that it comes as standard in the Zend framework, but I can't find out how/if one can install this on a shared hosting plan. Any pointers? Thanks

CSS Frameworks - Can you recommend one

gav240z — Tue, 13 May 2008 17:17:45 GMT

Hi Everyone, I could have swore I posted this today, but can't see it anywhere. So here goes again. I'm looking for a GOOD CSS framework. I've come across a few CSS Global Resets from Yahoo! and Eric Meyer but I find that they actually can slow you down more than help you out. There is also blue print blueprintcss - Google Code (http://code.google.com/p/blueprintcss/) which seems to be good, but seems to use a Ruby script to generate stuff for you. I've only looked at the Wiki, but it seems quite complex. I'm wondering what others use to achieve design consistency across many browsers / devices and also for print style sheets etc.. It would be good to have a frame work that sets good typography rules for readability, but also one that allows for flexibility in layout. Suggestions / tips / help / websites? Anyone? :)

Another (complete) newbie PHP Question

Ok so I have been assigned as webnanny at work for a site that is designed in .php - I haven't used this before and am trying to catch up asap. I would like to continue using *Dreamweaver* to manage the site. Is there anything I should know about this (as opposed to HTML which I am used to)? I also need help setting up a *testing server* within the Dreamweaver environment. Someone told me that DW presents security issues with webdesign but I have no option than to use it at this point and spend endless hours poring over a PHP manual I have just downloaded! :( Any help would be appreciated. wildsaffy

How to insert flash into a website

Accounting for rounding errors

squibs — Thu, 22 May 2008 15:18:04 GMT

I posted this as an accountancy question on another forum. Perhaps it is more of a coding issue. I'm writing an invoicing system in PHP/mySQL at the moment, for my own use, to suit my own business rules. A major premise is that when a quote is accepted, the invoices are generated from that quote, as stage-payment percentages of the overall cost. There can be as many stages as required, each with an abitrary percentage specified (not exceeding 100, obviously). If I quote somebody for �1075.50 and invoice them in 3 stages for 17%, 50% and 33% of the total, these values work out at 182.83500000 537.75000000 and 354.91500000 On an invoice, I believe nobody issues invoices for a fraction of a penny, so these would be rounded to the penny, giving 182.83 537.75 and 354.91 if I round down giving a total invoiced of 1075.49, and 182.84 537.75 and 354.92 if I round up giving a total invoiced of 1075.51 Both these values differ from the quote value of 1075.50 How can I reconcile the error? I could calculate when the last invoice had reached 100 percent and make it's value = totalcost - amount already invoiced. But this adds an unwieldy special case with lots of extra programming. Can anybody suggest a more elegant solution?

By-pass html conditional re-direct

ButtermilkJack — Thu, 29 May 2008 16:26:07 GMT

I have a small html re-direct set-up on the homepage of one of my sites. The redirect catches IE6 uses and sends them to a page where I tell them how bad IE6 is :D. However, I have a button which lets them go back and browse the site anyway. Needless to say they just end up gping in circles because once they go back to the homepage it sends them back to the IE6 bashing page. My question is, what's the easiest way to by-pass the IE6 conditional html if they are coming from the IE6 page?
