Using

Code:

SunShop Shopping Cart
http://www.turnkeywebtools.com/sunshop/

And having trouble showing decimal prices?

Here's a fix for global.php 's functions-file for the listitem-function:

Code:

/*
global.php - 03/18/2005 - 5:08:12pm PST - 3.4 Final Repack 2

SunShop Shopping Cart
http://www.turnkeywebtools.com/sunshop/

Copyright (c) 2001-2005 Turnkey Web Tools, Inc.
*/

OPEN
global.php

FIND

Code:

// ###################### listitem ##################
function listitem($id) {

FIND

Code:

$isoptions=$DB_site->query("SELECT * FROM ".$dbprefix."itemoptions where productid='$id' order by order1");
if ($iteminfo[price] != $lang_index[login_first]) {

BEFORE, ADD

Code:

/**

* Fix to show decimals like xx.yy instead of xx.00
*/
$iteminfo[price] = str_replace(',','.',$iteminfo[price]);

[snipplet] Prototype AJAX request with and without a return value in a div element ..

Allright ... now to make your AJAX request using Prototype?

Here are some steps, validation is up to you, always use serverside (PHP) validation !

In the default steps I presume you have some javascript knowledge, whereas in the Steps to make an AJAX request WITH a return value it should be a copy paste job, so scroll down if you want a working snipplet

Default steps:

Load prototype: ( of course in your javascript folder )
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/prototype.js"></script>

Run updater

Code:

new Ajax.Updater
(
'my_output_id1', url_ajax + 'my_get_action='+ escape(inputvalue),
{ }
);
OR

Just sent a request without a need for a div id to be updated with any results returned by the AJAX request:
Run the request:

Code:

var my_parameters = 'my_post_action=' + escape(inputvalue);
var myAjax = new Ajax.Request(url_ajax, { method: 'post', parameters: my_parameters
});

If you need to trigger some functions when the request has been processed, lets run it like this: ( using the alert() function ):

Code:

var my_parameters = 'my_post_action=' + escape(inputvalue);
var myAjax = new Ajax.Request(url_ajax, { method: 'post', parameters: my_parameters, onSuccess: function(transport) {
alert('Done!');
}
});

Steps to make an AJAX request WITH a return value:

Load prototype: ( of course in your javascript folder )
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/prototype.js"></script>
Load your AJAX definitions:
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/ajax.js"></script>

js/ajax.js contents:

Code:

HTML:

Code:

My first ajax request:
<br/>
<div id="loading"></div>
<br/>
<input type="text" id="my_input_id1" onChange="my_ajax_request1()">
<br/>
<div id="my_output_id1"></div>
js/ajax.php contents:

Code:

<?php
// KISS
if(isset($_GET))
{
print_r($_GET);
}
else
{
echo 'No GET vars found';
}
?>

Ok it took me a while to find, but here it is

http://www.phpbbhacks.com/download/1967

Code:

## Hack Title: Default Subject on Reply
## Hack Version: 1.0.1
## Hack Author: John McKernan (JohnMcK, PRESAGEmedia)
##
## Hack Description: This hack inserts a default subject into the 'subject'
## field when replying to posts. The default subject
## inserted is: "re: <topic title here>".
##
## It's very easy to install, just 2 simple edits.

You can even forget the lang_main.php edit, and hardcode it in your posting.php

Code:

$subject = 'Re: ' . $post_info['topic_title'];

ow and the first and only occurence of your FIND action is around line 774

I have installed the mod over here, and it works like a charm !

Seeing

before your DOCTYPE or HTML elements?

I'm not sure but I have a hunch how it came there. One of my customers had this problem on the other day.

We compared some stuff and it appeared that these weird characters appear either using Dreamweaver or an FTP application that doesn't have its encoding right ..

Update:
Saving/uploading with an ANSI encoding should take care of your problem.

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.ramonfincken\.com$ [NC]

Allright, well I have Mozilla Thunderbird as mailapplication.

Great programme, yet I was rather annoyed by it's behaviour when replying to a message.
Every reply started with a quote of the previous message, yet my cursor to start typing was at the very bottom of the new message !

How to solve this and set your position on top of the quoted reply:

Open Thunderbird
>> �Account Settings�
>> Open account (s)
>> Composition & Addressing
Now, below " Automatically quote the original message when replying ", check " Start my reply above the quote "

and you're back in business!
