[PHP] below10host.com as webhost?
Hello everyone, I was wondering if anyone had thought/opinions on below10host.com as a web host? I though phpwebhosting.com would be good, but then I read that some people really hated it, so I just wanted to check to make sure this would be okay and nobody had really trouble with it.

Re: [PHP] below10host.com as webhost?
I'm sorry, but why do you say webservpro doesn't make a lot of money? I am really looking for a good host for a 'friend' of mine. He has a small website (<20mb) and I don't think it gets too many hits. He doesn't have very much money to spend on a web host, so it must be something cheap. It needs php (4 would be better), and at least 20 email accounts. A mysql database would be really, really good. Ftp access (to upload pages) is a must, but telnet/ssh is always a plus. The host need to allow domain names. I think this is about what my friend is looking for. Does anyone have any ideas (besides below10host.com or phpwebhosting.com)?

Re: [PHP] below10host.com as webhost?
Okay. I'll tell you a little more information. The 'friend' of mine is actually my local church. I need ~20 email accounts because there should be 15 staff people (who will want/need email) and 5 for the future. Since it is a church, they don't have a lot of money to spend on stuff (i.e. a website). Their current host is at www.poconos.net, and the website of my church is www.st-thomas-aquinas.com. Poconos charges 19.95 a month, and I was hoping they could get something less than that. Does anyone know how to find out how much bandwidth my/my church's website it getting? Analog is installed, if that would help anyone figure something out. The stat's page is at www.st-thomas-aquinas.com/analog.html. Right now I am thinking of going with CIS Management as the web host as they seem to offer everything I need. I am a little concerned about reliability and stuff like that, so if someone with experience with them could say something... P.S. -- Could anyone give me advice/critics on the church's web site (www.st-thomas-aquinas.com)? The site really isn't much, but, not to rationalize or anything, that isn't all my fault. I am not a graphics designer. A few pics would probably make it look infinitely nicer, but I don't know how to do them.

Re: [PHP] Date/Time Formatting
When you are doing you select try something more along the lines of: select date_format(date, '%e,%c,%Y') from tblmycoolstuff; I got most of this stuff from http://www.mysql.com/doc/D/a/Date_and_time_functions.html You need to look at the table on that page to get the date to print out exactly as you want it. I know date_format works with the timestamp column type, but I don't know (but I assume) that it works the same exact way for some of the other types that store dates :-) If you still are having trouble, maybe I could help you?

[PHP] Mysql & Array Question
Hello Everyone,
I am trying to make a page that will interact with mysql. I need to be
able to access the result of my mysql_query by using a for loop. I made a
little function that will sortof do this, but it returns a numeric array.
Of course, I want an associative array (becauses things get screwy with a
null). Does anyone know how to make something like what I want? Thanks a
bunch :-)
This is my current function:
function returnArray ($id) {
$z = array (array());
for ($i = 0; $row = mysql_fetch_array ($id); $i++) {
for ($a = 0; $a < sizeof ($row); $a++) {
$z[$i][$a] = $row[$a];
}
}
return $z;
}

Re: [PHP] session_register in function
I had this same exact problem just today. It all stems from the variable
namespace, I think
A similar code 'snippet' is shown below. I just made it up, but I think it
illustrates my point.
Good luck with whatever you are doing,

Re: [PHP] php and forms question
Hia Chip, If I were you (but I'm not, thankfully for both of us), I would use a multiple select, and, maybe sessions. I think sessions are better/easier than hidden fields, but only in php4. Multiple selects are nice. They come back as an array, which is pretty easy to deal with by using a loop.

I can alternate sort of alternate between 3, but not quite. I have tried lots of different combinations, but I can't figure it out. Thank you very much! Maybe there should be a better link to it in the manual. The only one I could find was at http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.math.php, but it is far from clear (to me at least....). Jeff Lacy P.S.
