Bastien gave you all the info:
You should look at paging the data here with the OFFSET portion of the
limit clause
Select * from restaurant [where clause]limit 1000, $offset
where the $offset value can tell you where to start in the 17K rows of
data so that in effect you show records 1-1000, 1001-2000,
2001-3000...then on the page, just provide a set of links of navigate
the recordset by the user [ << < 1-1000 1001-2000 2001-3000 > >> ]
***
So you would generate page that had the first 1000 records and a Next >
link that linked maybe to the same page with ?start=1001. Then use the
$_GET['start'] to generate the next set of results staring at 1001.

Why don't you read the docs on it and find out.

Thanks, I hadn't thought about that approach. It's certainly an alternative.
I think I have come across some of them on various sites, but I've found
them to be quite disagreeable. As you scroll, they often scroll down,
then float back to their assigned position. Weird. And they are usually
blocking something that I want to see.
I don't know if what I'm doing is javascript or not. I never have that
identifier on my web page. I do call the Window.Open (function?), so, if
that counts then yeah. But I like the separate window better. The user
can more easily move it out of the way - even off the browser window -
and continue reading the main page while referring to the popup window.
I'd actually like to allow the user to create multiple popup windows,
which I create from buttons on my webpage, but right now they all go to
the same window, and I've had enough trouble trying to get that to work.
I'm there now with that last Window.Focus detail - except that
Firefox seems to be having a problem with that. But, I'm not going to
worry about that. So, for now I'm good.

If they are all going to the same window, its likely that you have a
window.open function that names the window. When the window has a
name/id, then any subsequent calls to the window open command will
re-use the same window. if you remove the id attribute (the call is
usually window.open(url,id,parameters) and substitute an empty string
( '' ) then it should open new windows.
Back to the DIVs option, you can write js controls that make the
window dragable, hidable etc to improve the users enjoyment of the
page

Some implementations are definitely better than others. Like any other
software, you just have to take some time to try out different
versions and find the one that has the features that you want for the
price you're willing to pay, or else try your hand at writing your
own.

You are correct, the Open names the window. That is done in the Onclick
of the button and becomes the Target for an <A>. I need a name for the
Target. This works pretty good. I'm not sure many users would open more
than one anyway - at least not without getting even more confused.
Probably better.
I've tried to build this with Html and CSS, and just a little PHP.

Hi,
> A lot of sites are moving to simulated dialog windows inside the page.
There's an updated version of my ModalDialog included in RGraph which
does just this:
http://www.rgraph.net/docs/external.html
It covers the page in a semi transparent DIV to bring attention to
itself (the modal part). It beats the crappy confirm() dialogs. The
older version is here:

But why are we moving to commercial software to do something as simple
as I'm trying to do here?
I'm not against commercial software in general - I own my own commercial
software business full-time.
Your dialog might be great and really useful in some situations, with
plenty of benefits. But, it's a big decision to include ANY software
package into any project. There are learning curves, questions about who
will be skilled to support it in the future, cost (?), versions,
upgrades, survival etc.
And I have to say, as a user, I am very disappointed with many sites
that have obviously included all the latest and greatest technology.
Perhaps there is a need for change. And maybe the development of these
alternate solutions will encourage the standards powers that be to take
a new look at the need for a solution within standards.

Hi,
I have a form in which my sales reps can add new clients into the database,
but I'm running into a problem if the client's name includes a single quote,
such as O'Henry, when it comes time to input the form data into the database
table. I'm guessing I need to use ereg_replace, or something similar, to
change the single quote, but I still can't seem to get the syntax right.
Any help would be appreciated. For what it's worth, here is a shortened
version of what I have:
$ firstName = "$_POST[form_firstName]";
$ lastname = "$_POST[form_lastName]";
$query = mysql_query("INSERT INTO customers (`cust_first`,`cust_last`)
VALUES ('$firstName','$lastName')");

You need to sanitize and escape the input before inserting it into
the db. You can use http://us.php.net/mysql_real_escape_string to
escape the input.

To summarize:
You should prep your data for insertion into the data by using a tool
that formats it strictly for the database. In the ops case
mysql_real_escape_string() is the correct tool for the job.
htmlentities() is a presentation sanitizing/cleaning tool. But, it
should only be used for output to the browser, etc... Same thing with
htmlspecialchars() and all other related function.

I think mysql_real_escape_string() is work well, but if you are use mysql db,
if you are using another db, the best function is addslashes but for another
special charactes you will need treat them with another ways

Slashes are the wrong character to use. The official SQL escape is a
single quote character. Some database managers accept either, but using
slashes can cause more problems than they solve. Find the correct
escape_string function for your database and use it.

Sorry if I wasnt clear enough, but I was looking for forum or may be the
way you called it message board for people to discuss topics.
Mostly its going to be a political Forum where people discuss major
political topics/news about their country.
So basically my search ended up with SMF as a software to do the job.
I really appreciate the input....
Cheers.

Hello
I have a very simple test form named "pass.php" :
<form action="pass.php" method=POST>
username : <input type=text name=user ><br />
password : <input type=password name=pass> <br />
<input type=submit value="go"><p>
</form>
<?php
$user=$_POST['user'];
$pass=$_POST['pass'];
if(($user=="myname")&&($pass="mypass"))
echo "access granted";
else
echo "access denied";
?>
getting "Notice: Undefined index: user" and "Notice: Undefined index: pass".
changing form action to another page will solve the problem but i want to be
able to use $_POST array on the same page, how can i do it?
thanks in advance
