Oh right. Well initially I'm trying to get it working on wamp 2 on my local machine. But ultimately I'll be uploading to a web host's server. Sounds like you're saying that I need to make sure I choose a web host that specifically has ffmpeg installed already?... -
OK. Thanks again.
I'd appreciate anyone else who has further clues on question 3 above.Leave a comment:

Thanks for your quick answer. More questions.
1) Is this the only accepted (or possible) way of doing what I need?
2) When you say codecs, do you mean the H264, VP8 and Theora video codecs and the AAC and Vorbis audio codecs?
3) For a newbie (to this) like me, are there any good instructions for how to install ffmpeg and the codecs on a server? I've designed large php/mysql websites before, just never...Leave a comment:

convert video to html 5 format while uploading
Hope this is the right category.
Let's say a site is designed to allow a user to upload a video. The video will later be accessed by the user or others.
My understanding is the 3 formats are mp4, webm and ogg. If the user's video is in, say, avi or wmv format (or something other than the html 5 formats), is it essential for the user to convert the video themselves before upload, or can this somehow be done on the fly... -
Thanks. I discovered that even though I had a pph.ini file in the root folder, php wasn't looking at that file. I changed the main ini file and it worked fine.Leave a comment:

Website showing wrong time
Hi,
My php website is showing the wrong time. I don't think it's a timezone thing. The website is running purely on my local machine under localhost. It's around 10 hours slow, which means when I login this morning, Monday morning, the date shows up as Sunday still.
In my php.ini file, I have
date.timezone = Australia/Hobart
But I'm wondering whether there's some other setting I'm not... -
drhowardfine, You are an absolute lifesaver. Thankyou so much for the fix and the theory behind it as well. Works exactly as required now.

Hey there drhowardfine
Thanks for your quick reply. I added float:left to each div, but it hasn't quite fixed the issue. I'll show you the code I have now and also attach an image of what has resulted. As you can see, there are a couple of things that don't seem to work and which I don't understand why (I freely confess I'm not an expert here).
Div A, B and C are now aligned correctly. However, the div inside which...Leave a comment:

Divs not aligning vertically
Hi,
Below is a small piece of html. I'm using FF 3. It's of two divs. Inside the first Div are three divs: div A, div B and div C. Everything does what I need except that div B appears below div A and div C appears below div B. I need all three of div A, B and C to begin at the same vertical height.
Would someone mind telling me what I need to tweak to make this happen?
...Code:<html> <head>

Yes, I also figured the image header might have something to do with it. Does anyone know for sure?Leave a comment:

fush not flushing as expected
Hi,
Can someone please tell me why the code below is not flushing as I want it to? I need it to put a dot on the screen every second. All it's doing is echoing the whole thing at the end of 20 seconds. php.ini output_bufferin g is set to 0. Thanks.

Hi RamananKaliraja n
Thanks for your work on this. It's fantastic. It now works perfectly in IE. However, it doesn't work in FF, Safari, Chrome or Opera. I should note that the up/down arrowing works fine. It's the left/right arrowing that is the problem. Obviously I'd like to have it working in them too, or it won't be viable. I've included the error message for each browser below. If you know of a way to fix these I'd appreciate it....Leave a comment:

arrow keys in html form
Hi
Being tested using FF 3 on WAMP server. I have spent a number of hours trying to figure this out myself.
I have a html form using table cells and had a request to enable the arrow keys on a keyboard to move through the cells. I found some code and adapted it, and it works well now. Arrow keys move the cursor exactly to the correct cell. There are two things I can't do which I was hoping you guys would give me some... -
Moltendorf,
Thanks muchly for your reply. I'll certainly change the rand part. I also like the idea of avoiding the while loop altogether.Did you have anything in mind for accomplishing that (guaranteeing it gets a unique result on the 1st try)?...Leave a comment:

will this if logic work?
I have some code to generate a string of 3 letters followed by 3 numbers. The idea is that it generates a string, then looks in a mysql db to make sure the string doesn't exist, and if it doesn't, it accepts the code. Can anyone tell me whether the logic is sound? In other words, if it finds a match of the string in the db, will it make a different string? The code is
...Code:$success='n'; while($success=='n') { -
Send error to email from php.ini
Using php 5
I have access to my own php.ini file on the server
I want to send any and all php errors to an email address
I tried changing the line error_log = error_log to
error_log = ("PHP error", 1, "myemail@mydoma in.com")
but it hasn't worked. I basically just would like to know what my oho.ini file needs to have in order to send an email rather than logging... -
Hey mideastgirl,
Did you sort the code problem out? Sometimes people here can be rather unhelpful. If you're still stuck, let me know. I remember being about where I think you are with php 3 years ago. It took a long time before I "got" what everyone else found so easy.
Let me know

Right. I understand what you've said, but doesn't this just get me back to where I started, of still having to have an if statement at every point on the site where a decision is to be made? That's what I was trying to avoid... (unless I've misunderstood)...Leave a comment:

Prevent form running for one particular user
Hi,
hope this is in the right topic...
Running php5 on apache. I've setup a site where people can login as "demo", "demo" and play around with the functions of the site. Part of the functionality involves uploading files, deleting/editing using standard form fields and storing data in Mysql.
I want people *not* to be able to delete things, or upload files bigger than 100KB when they're...
