Hello, I use [URL="http://www.phpclasses.org/browse/file/919.html"]class.phpmailer.php[/URL]. It works for Yahoo, Hotmail, GMail, and I'm sure many others that I haven't tested. It also includes an example which is easy to follow.

Here's a function I use sometimes. It explodes the address to get the domain name. It then checks for a Mail Exchange on the domain. This will work for bogus domain names but won't do anything for email addresses like [icode]bill@hotmail.com[/icode] or [icode]suzie@yahoo.com[/icode]. Try to keep in mind, there is …

JavaScript comes pre-installed on the browser. PHP does not.

Use Sessions for authentication. They will log the user off when the browser is closed. You shouldn't need to store a value in the db unless you want to show users activity (last login at...)

In order to submit variables to the second page, you'll have to find a way to get them inside of the form on the first page. On the first page, your form is empty, i.e. no variables actually make it in between the <form> and </form> tags. Use your loop …

Not sure about the unique part, as a unique constraint will only support one null value in the column. It sounds like you potentially could have many. Use a check constraint to verify both aren't null: [code] ALTER TABLE TableA ADD CONSTRAINT CK_BothDepartsNotNull CHECK (departA IS NOT NULL OR departB …

There are several ways to do this. Fortunately you at least have a primary key. Be smart and backup the database before attempting. Here's an example solution using a CTE: Create the test tables and populate: CREATE TABLE PassportTest( Id int not null ,Name varchar(25) not null ,IdentityNo1 char(5) null …

The master database has a scalar function, fn_varbintohexstr, for this. Example: DECLARE @text varchar(256), @varbinary varbinary(256); SET @text = 'A1B2C3'; SET @varbinary = cast(@text as varbinary(256)); SELECT @text OriginalString , sys.fn_varbintohexstr(@varbinary) HexString /* returns nvarchar(max)*/

It's not pretty nor creative but is Valid XHTML 1.0 Strict: [code=html] <ol> <li style="font-size:24px"> <span style="font-size:12px">This text is 12px.

This is pretty common for programmers new to php. We'll need to see more code. Are you using echo or print before the header? [URL="http://www.tech-recipes.com/php_programming_tips1489.html"]Here's[/URL] an article about the error.

This article was written in 2007 but still applies: http://www.search-this.com/2007/03/12/no-margin-for-error/ Priceless information for anyone in CSS hell.

I'm assuming by menu, that you mean a drop-down menu populated from a web application. Being a programmer, you'll have the tendency to perform iterations over result sets. This will perform very poorly when your row count gets higher. Save the iterations for after the db gives you back the …

You can output to excel using OPENROWSET or bcp (with xp_cmdshell).

Try this. I haven't tested it but it should do the trick. The key is to use the @ sign on line 2 to prevent the error message from showing up on the clients browser. Also, if you add or die(mysql_error()) to the end of line 2, the script will …

What is the point of the routesequence?? You're just storing the same value twice... Also, each row should be unique, whether it be an identity on the id or a composite value. Rows 1 & 2 are duplicates, as are 6 & 7. This design violates first normal form, will …

Here's a simple example of how to use output variables in stored procedures: [code] CREATE PROC dbo.ReturnString @string VARCHAR(500) ,@outputString VARCHAR(500) OUTPUT AS SET @outputString = @string GO [/code] Then to call the stored procedure, you'll want to declare a variable and assign the value like so: [code] DECLARE @output …

This will work with 2008. With 2005 or earlier, you'll need to use datetime and the convert to varchar to strip the time portion off. [code] DECLARE @yesterday DATE SET @yesterday = DATEADD(D,-1,GETDATE()) [/code]

You can't insert into 2 tables with one statement. You can grab the identity of the parent table and insert into the child table with 2 statements: [code] DECLARE @AppValId int INSERT Products (Item) VALUES ('Pepsi') SET @AppValId = @@IDENTITY INSERT ProductAttributes (ApplicationValueID,Attribute,Value) VALUES (@AppValId,'Price','2.99') [/code]

If your SQL Server is 2005 or greater, you can use EXCEPT and INTERSECT to find these. List email addresses that are in both Table1 and Table2: [code] SELECT email FROM Table1 INTERSECT SELECT email FROM Table2 [/code] List email addresses that are in Table1 but not in Table2: [code] …

Use BETWEEN and cast the varchar to date: [code] select * from mytable where dtcreated BETWEEN CAST(fromdate AS DATE) and CAST(todate AS DATE) [/code] Edit: This works on SQL Server 2008 and up. Cast to datetime if you are using an earlier version.

Defining the column as Identity, means that each value is unique and will never repeat. It is an identifier for the row.

First, please use code blocks when posting code examples. Example: [noparse][code]--put your code here[/code][/noparse]. Second, you are using a cursor to loop through and populate dynamic sql. Cursors should be a last resort and the same goes for dynamic sql. This code will be a nightmare to maintain and debug. …
