Dynamic Content - Writing DB Info To A Page
I'm writing a website that works on similar lines as a dating site, where end users can enter their details and what they want to sell, which is then submitted on to a webpage, any people that are interested in that product, contact us and we then pass the lead to the person who is doing the selling. So basically teh site is acting as a middle man.
I have done the database bit where the end user enters his details, we get emailed his details and his id (which is a an auto increment field) then there is a page called view.php which pulls up his details on a web page and there is then a submit and decline button. Teh decline button is the easy part, but the bit that I'm stuck on now is the submit part. And thus here is my question how do i write information that is held on a database to a webpage. But this webpage has to ADD and and not OVERWRITE what is already there as we want to create a listing? Code:

Getting Content-Language Info
As I understand it, when the browser sends its request ot the web server, there's a bunch of associated metadata sent along with it. including the Content-Language info (such as en_UK... british english is the language set in the browser.) Assuming I'm not completely wrong-headed about this. how do I find out the values of those various metadata sent in the request header?

Content Mangement System/Wiki For Writing
I'm looking for a good (ideally free), system for quite a big writing job. There will be some collaboration, but it is mainly on one system. I am keen to have easy to use indexing and cross-referencing as well as excellent backup and recovery of data. I've looked at a few wiki systems and they seem quite good, but don't support all that much formatting. I know things must have changed a lot in the last couple of years since I last looked into this in detail.

Writing Dynamic Headers (eg Titles)
If I only have control of layout pages that are in effect parts of the <body> of a (dynamic) web site, how can I change the title. I can put a variable in the title but this doesn't seem to work. e.g. <html><title><? print $message; ?></title></html> <body><? $message = "Something"; ?></body> does not result in a title of Something since the header is parsed before the body. Is there a way round this so I can put a standard bit in the mainpage but have the title determined by the context?

Dynamic Content In A <div>, Using Php
i have a <DIV> block, and I want the innerHTML to change at the click of a button. for those who don't know some javascript, if you have a dive with an id, <DIV id="myDiv"></DIV> you can change the content inside with a function call myDiv.innerHTML = "some stuff"; however, i need my data to come from a mySQL database and thus needs to be outputted via php. so ideally i want something like myDiv.innerHTML = "<?php echo "some stuff"; ?>"; of course that does not work because php is not client side, this is just to illustrate what i want. any ideas on how to do this without iframes?

I work for a design company as an intern doing strictly design, however, I'd like to learn PHP for my own personal use. I'd just like to know where I should start with setting up dynamic content.

Maybe I'm jumping into this too quickly, but I've already taken C++ and other languages that make reading php understandable.

Web Crawlers And Dynamic Content
This must be a very old and well studied question... I created a site using JSP, that permits the viewing of articles that are fully stored in a database. The url for the articles is something like: .../article.jsp?idi=6&ida=12 My question is, and this is the same for all dynamic content technologies (server-side scripting technologies): is there a way to permit for search engines and crawlers (Google, Yahoo...) to find and categorize these article pages?

Dynamic Link/Content With PHP
I've created a mySQL database with the fields id, title and content. 'ID' is a unique field. Any ideas on how I can use PHP to generate a list of the titles which are links. When you click on a link you are taken to a page with the content held in the database. I'm guessing the generated links would be something like /page.PHP?pageid=x based on the id, that's if this script is possible at all.

Dynamic Content Using Dropdown
I have the following dropdown menu which is populated by content or categories (with catID being the category ID) from the database. What I want to do though is when an item in the drop down list is selected, I want to show dynamic content under it. BTW, I must not emphasize on "dynamic" too much because it may seem like a DHTML thing going on here. For example, if a user selects a certain item/category in the list, I want content such as coupons in the DB which have the same catID as the category selected showing up. The coupons are discreetly placed in the DB table "coupons" with the category ID being catID and...for eg: catID --- couponname --- couponinfo --- expiredate If you are going to include any kind of javascript, please write them as well. Here is the code I am starting off with: =========================== <form name="myform"> <select name="selectID" size=10 > <? $resultcat = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM Category"); while ($myrow2 = mysql_fetch_array($resultcat)) {?><?printf("<option value=%s>%s</option>", $myrow2["catID"],$myrow2["name"]); } ?></select></form>

Copyrights And Dynamic Content
Has anybody here ever copyrighted a dynamic website? I'm an internet publisher and my website stores small business ideas and related information in a mySQL database. We add content (our own) to the database almost daily. I'm not asking for legal advice, just seeing if anyone has done this and how they went about it (i.e., worked with a lawyer, filled out the forms through US Copyright office, used a copyright service, etc). The closest guidance I could find from the US Copyright Office is contained in Circular #65 - Copyright Registration for Automated Databases (http://www.copyright.gov/circs/circ65.html). However, their definition of an automated database is the compilation of pre-exisisting materials or data into an original form. Not sure where original content fits in? If anybody does have experience with this, the follow-on question is, how frequently must follow-up copyright submissions be filed to accomodate the expanding database.

Java, Dynamic Web Content, Serialization, Web Dev
I noticed a post that mentioned PHP does a better job of dynamic web content than java and wanted to see what people have to say about that. Also, I saw it mentioned that in PHP you don't have to mark objects as serializable and sessions are more transparent with or without cookies. I've done some java but am mainly a C++ programmer at this point, but want to start reading up on web development. I have to find my big thick Java book, someone may have borrowed it. I got into doing alot of perl for automated testing and started reading perl/CGI, various perl web stuff and PHP books. Maybe I should go back and focus on Java more, and then see if I want to play with PHP. Can you find free web hosting that has perl/java/php support ? Is it worth building my own web server with Apache ? I am mainly interested in furthering my programming skills. I would think getting an apache web server running would give me more admin skills. That might be good if I wanted to do my own freelance work. I would like to be able to have a flexibale work schedule, do some part time work etc. I'd also have to buy another computer probably to install apache on. Is the difference between Java and PHP sort of like the difference between C++ and perl ?

Split Dynamic Content PHP Or Javascript
I have been working on a new site for ages trying to come up with a good way to cleanly split up content using PHP or Javascript. Basically what I want to do is split dynamic content that includes links in to certain length chunks and not just cut off the string in the middle of a link. The length will be determined by the current users font-size. Is there a PHP function that does this by any chance or do you know of one, javascript also.

Php Meta Descriptions With Dynamic PHP Content...
I have been very interested in using dynamic (db driven) meta page descriptions. I know that search engines use these at a minimum these days, but will they be able to read these dynamic descriptions. I guess I am not sure how these spiders work... Do they simulate users bwosing the site or are they indexing them by scanning actual files (in which case dynamic meta tags would be pointless).

Sockets To Serve Dynamic Content
I know it is possible to send a web page to someone's browser through the socket as a response to their connection. Let's say the page you serve them has a link with GET variable attached or a form with POST variables, and you want to use that information to calculate your next response to them. How does one go about doing that? I've tried just using $_GET['variable'], etc within the php script but no luck with that, however when the user first directs the browser to the socket, they are sending headers. Am I supposed to use regular expressions, etc to parse the headers and extract the information from get and post or is there some easier or better way to do this? I've seen lots of examples from google on how to send a response on the socket from telnet, but nothing about how to create some sort of browser interactive response. Any body able to help out with this?

Cached Pages And Dynamic Content
I am currently building a caching mechanism into my own development framework. Basically whenever a page that is marked in the DB as cacheable is requested the controller creates the cached version of the page and returns it , on subsequent requests the cache is displayed. Whenever a content change is made in the DB the relevant cached page is deleted ready to be rebuilt & cached with the new content on the next page request. Thats fine for many pages , some pages are too dynamic for caching to be useful (shopping carts for example); ................. The issue I am grappling with is ..... A product information page, mostly static and perfect for caching , but lets say the user has something in thier shopping cart I want to also show a 'checkout' now link or change the 'buy now' links to 'add to cart' etc. e.g. some small content will change and so I can't use the existing cache. the choices to date seem to be ...

Create And Dispose Dynamic Content
I am trying to figure out how to have a script dynamically create and then dispose of a text file. A script will generate a text file using the standard I/O functions and then present a link so the user can right-click and download. That part is easy. The file could be created in a unique directory on the server for each user such that different users don't clobber each other. How can I make sure the file is later removed if the user backs out of the page and doesn't explicitly logoff. I suppose it boils down to is there a way to write a script that gets executed when a session ends whether the user explicitly logged out or not.

Creating Dynamic Content For A Website
What I want to create is a gallery of posts, perhaps text files in a single directory on my website, and allow the user to scroll through them with "back" and "next" links. I hate the idea of creating individual html files with the content posted in the body of the file. Is it possible to use php to post this content dynamically from a directory of txt files, with no hardcoding, so the previous or next post just appears on the page with no reloading? If so, can anybody direct me to a tutorial on how to accomplish this?

Writing A PHP And Javascript Generated Page To A PHP Variable...
I have a form that posts data to a PHP mailer page I have created. When it goes to the PHP mailer page it reads some of the data and modifies the page accordingly using Javascript (hiding certain divs, etc...). My goal, is to take all this data after it has been processed by Javascript and send it through my PHP mailer as it is currently formatted. If it helps any, the track I am on right now involves encapsulating the Javascript processed block in a div. I am then trying to take the ..innerHTML data from that div and store it in the PHP $message variable for my mailer. This won't work because PHP is server side. So, I moved on to generate some Javascript code (with PHP) that sends all that messy HTML data that its processed through a URL variable to then be read by PHP. This doesn't really accomplish what I want as it cuts off about a quarter of the way through my data...... Any ideas? One thing I thought of but don't know how to do or whether it's even possible is using PHP to view the source of the current page and store that as the HTML to be e-mailed. Or, is it possible to do something similar to .innerHTML with PHP?
