Depending on what browser you are using, I'd recommend installing a browser extension so that you can get some sort of log message to show what part of your js code is failing.

I use the developer tools compatible with google chrome. Firebug is another good alternative.

In addition, you can use this great code quality tool called JSLint which will provide you with excellent code analysis and prevent you from falling into bad practices when coding your javascript.

Re: Ajax Live Database Feed using php and sql

Look here:

http://api.jquery.com/load/

Depending on how often you want your feed to be updated you could use a Javascript setInterval() function to repeatedly call the .load ajax feed.

Here is something I've used in the past (to update a price of an item every couple of seconds).

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function updateBids() {
	var url="getprice.php?auc=<?php echo $id; ?>";
	jQuery("#priceElement")<strong class="highlight">.load</strong>(url);
}

<strong class="highlight">setInterval</strong>("updateBids()", 1000);
</script>
</head>
<body>
Here is the price: <div id="priceElement"></div>
</body>
</html>

Simple (behind-the-scenes) PHP script to fetch data from db:

<?php

// Anything printed on this page will be loaded into the priceElement <div>

                include ('db.php');

		$id = $_GET['auc'];
		$getprice = mysql_query("SELECT b_currentprice FROM bid WHERE auction_id = '$id' ORDER BY b_timestamp DESC");
		$resultprice = mysql_fetch_assoc($getprice);
		
		$price = $resultprice['b_currentprice'];
		echo $price;
?>

Re: LDAP problems with Apache 2.2

I have never seen that problem before. You said you were using ubuntu?

From a bare-metal install, all I ever had to do to enable LDAP was:

# sudo apt-get install apache2
# a2enmod authnz_ldap
# /etc/init.d/apache2 restart

Did you install Apache via apt-get or did you build everything manually?

From my experience, I've never had to configure httpd.conf to enable the modules for me as a2enmod does it for you. You could try removing your edits from this file then re-enabling the mods.

Inside the folder /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/ we will find all the enabled modules. Here we will find symlinks to the files from mods_available for all the enabled modules. Only the modules found in this folder will be enabled at run time.

Re: LDAP problems with Apache 2.2

There is a syntax error in your configuration file. You should be using /usr/local/apache2/sites-available/default to configure the directives in apache.

But it looks like you have edited httpd.conf. Perhaps you are using a deprecated directive? Can you post lines 60-70 of httpd.conf so I can have a look.

Have you enabled the LDAP modules? This is the one you need:

sudo a2enmod authnz_ldap

Once you enable the module, the module will be available in the the /apache2/mods-enabled/ directory.

Re: Apache modules - mod_auth_cas

Yes you can symlink them.

Although I'm not sure why you have installed the server in /usr/local/

For next time, I'd recommend using the standard installation paths for your software.

Here's a breakdown of the files/folders used in Apache 2.2 Web Server that I found really helpful:

The new version of Apache 2.2 means that there is a different file structure for its configuration files.

[B]apache2.conf:[/B] the main Apache2 configuration file. Contains settings that are global to Apache2.

[B]conf.d:[/B] contains configuration files which apply globally to Apache2. Other packages that use 
        Apache2 to serve content may add files, or symlinks, to this directory.
[B]
envvars:[/B] file where Apache2 environment variables are set.

[B]httpd.conf:[/B] historically the main Apache2 configuration file, named after the httpd daemon. 
            The file can be used for user specific configuration options that globally effect Apache2.

[B]mods-available:[/B] this directory contains configuration files to both load modules and configure them. 
                Not all modules will have specific configuration files, however.

[B]mods-enabled:[/B] holds symlinks to the files in /etc/apache2/mods-available. 
              When a module configuration file is symlinked it will be enabled the next time 
              apache2 is restarted.

[B]ports.conf:[/B] houses the directives that determine which TCP ports Apache2 is listening on.

[B]sites-available:[/B] this directory has configuration files for Apache2 Virtual Hosts. 
                 Virtual Hosts allow Apache2 to be configured for multiple sites that have 
                 separate configurations.

[B]sites-enabled:[/B] like mods-enabled, sites-enabled contains symlinks to the 
               /etc/apache2/sites-available directory.
               Similarly when a configuration file in sites-available is symlinked, 
               the site configured by it will …

Hmm. Looks like it's something to do with the content-type in your page.

I think if you send the following header before outputting your image that will do the trick - you need to tell the browser that you are sending image data and not anything else.

Okay, you will need to apply permissions to the top-level directory to which you wish to write a new folder to.

I believe the chmod command will only work on a Linux-type OS's whereas you're using XAMPP for Windows.

1. Navigate to this directory $mapbeschrijving/$slides 1/slides or whatever it is (The directory you are attempting to write the file to),
2. Right click on directory -> select properties -> you should be able to edit the permission settings of this directory. (I am using Windows 7, there's a tab called 'Security' where I can change the write permissions of that directory)
3. Enable write permissions

Re: T_CASE Error ?

unexpected T_CASE means you have a case statement that has somehow become disconnected from it's switch.

Are you showing the whole switch statement in the code you posted?

A switch statement should be formed as follows (Taken from the PHP manual):

switch ($i) {
    case 0:
        echo "i equals 0";
        break;
    case 1:
        echo "i equals 1";
        break;
    case 2:
        echo "i equals 2";
        break;
}
?>

Check whether your statement follows this structure. Also, I notice that you have an unmatched closing brace after the last 'break;'

Re: Unable to access phpmyadmin in browser

It depends on your directory structure.

Issue this command to find your base directory:

~# cat /etc/apache2/sites-available/default | grep DocumentRoot

For example, if your document root is set as /var/www/htdocs

Then the URL localhost/phpmyadmin would mean that the phpmyadmin folder is located in /var/www/htdocs. If the phhpmyadmin folder isn't in there, then your path is wrong.

Hope that makes sense,

Yes it's possible. Although it may take some time to code (and render) each graph.
I'd look at fusioncharts. They provide a free trial which have the best PHP-driven charts.
Alternatively, if you can generate images of these graphs (or if they don't need to be dynamic) then simply display the image. This would save you a lot of time.

Re: I have a few questions about Linux

1. I use Gnome, but KDE is just as good. I personally don't prefer one over the other.
2. The partitioning software on disk will work fine. Just make sure you know a bit about the partitioning formats to use for linux and windows as some provide more benefits over others. Fedora partition will probs use ext3. Decide how much space you want for each partition. Windows (NTFS/FAT), Linux(EXT3), Linux Swap Space. You could even use a FAT32 partition for sharing data between Windows and Linux.
3. Pretty much any linux distro will run faster than windows. I wouldn't be too concerned about this.

Re: PHP: Getting details like ip address and time

I generally tend to use a Unix timestamp, but I'm not really sure what the 'best' format is. This link explains mysql date formats

You can convert a unix timestamp to a human-readable format using the date() function. You can format the date format to your liking:

$timestamp = 1296143233;
$formattedtime = date("d/m/y", $timestamp)

Or to turn a date back into a timestamp, use strtotime():

$date = "01/01/1970";
$date2timestamp = strtotime($date);

Here are some of my most used commands for vi/vim:

i - enter input mode
esc - escape input mode
del - delete text
:q - quit
:wq - write and quit
:q! - quit without saving
dd - deletes a whole line
shift+a - goes to the end of a line and enter input mode

Re: commands

Okay, it's good that you're interested!

Let's take an example:
You have a file which is 1Gb in size. You know that opening the file in the shell (e.g using 'cat') is going to be inefficient, as you'll have to scroll through a lot of lines to get to where you want to look. So less and more are basically alternatives to save resources and/or to only select the information that you're interested in.

The default behaviour of more is that the file content scrolls up one screen height at a time, and the space bar is used to advance to the next page. The command less is a more sophisticated version of more. Less can scroll backwards and has many more options over more. (There is plenty of information about this on the web).

If you're viewing a large log file and are only interested in what's happened most recently, then I would usually recommend using 'tail -f file.log' which would display the last 'x' number of lines of that file.

Re: Strip a word from a variable

Yes this is possible. But the solution will depend on whether the $from variable always starts with INTERVAL, or whether it changes...

If it is always going to start with INTERVAL, then you could use a simple substr() function to cut off the first word. This simply says to print everything after the 8th character, counting I as 0, N as 1, T as 2 etc.

<?php
    $new_from = substr($from, 8);
    echo $new_from;
?>

The syntax for substr is

string substr ( string $string , int $start [, int $length ] )

Alternatively, if the first word changes you could look into using explode() (using space as the delimiter)

<?php
// Example
$pizza  = "piece1 piece2 piece3 piece4 piece5 piece6";
$pieces = explode(" ", $pizza);
echo $pieces[0]; // piece1
echo $pieces[1]; // piece2 
?>

The query will still work even if there isn't a space between the asterisk and the 'FROM'
The query looks fine. The issue is most likely with the variable not being set.
Try this and post the result:

<?php
    $show = $_GET['id'];

    if (isset($show))
    {
        $news_sql = mysql_query("SELECT *FROM latestnews WHERE id='$show'") or die("MySQL syntax error: ". mysql_error());
    }
    else { die ('$show isn't set! the $_get didn't work...'); }
?>

Note:- The $_GET must mean that the URL has a variable called 'id' (www.site.com/script.php?id=2)
And say I used $_GET then the url should be something like (www.site.com/script.php?foo=bar)

Re: How to get my page id to change the content dynamic?

You can still use the $_GET method to grab variables from your URL using form method="post", but you'd have to append the Id variable to the form action like this:

<form action="<?php 'process.php?id=$id' ?>" method="post">

(that's if you're actually using a form, you haven't stated whether you are).

Can you be a bit more specific with what you're trying to do?
