    Hello again everyone! I have updated the forum scripts to include Dynamic mode for Internet Explorer. I have only tested with IE6 sp1, but the scripts should work for at least IE 5. Please bang away and notify me of any bugs. Thanks! http://www.sagara.org/cpforums[^] Jon Sagara When I want something, I just go out and buy it. That makes me a go-getter. -- My sister

      Actually, your little clicky link thing did break them. :) Jon Sagara When I want something, I just go out and buy it. That makes me a go-getter. -- My sister

        Did it work for you then? I tried them but both of them merely replace the entire window's content rather than perform the actions there were supposed to.

          That's what it did for me, too, but I want to eliminate that. Jon Sagara When I want something, I just go out and buy it. That makes me a go-getter. -- My sister

            What is the aim of this development? For fun, open source, to be included in CodeProject? .. just out of interest! I noticed that even if the author unchecks the e-mail on replies checkbox, the e-mail is still mandatory. I guess if this option is disabled, then e-mail should be optional and in this case the [Email to Author] should not be available for this message. Also when composing the message, there is not URL and URL^. There is also something that is not feeling right about the images, it is either that the server is slow, or CP has a trick to make it load faster. You may want to consider pre-loading the pictures using JavaScript or providing the width / height if they are not there. Good work... phpWebNotes is a page annotation system modelled after php.net. http://webnotes.sourceforge.net/demo.php[^]

              I prefer PHP because of its C-like syntax. PHP seems to be a tad more accessible than ASP, too. OTOH, ASP appears to be a more professional technology because it is produced by one company, not hundreds of independent developers. Example: in PHP, naming conventions are not strictly enforced. There is a function named stripslashes() to remove backslashes from a string. There is also a function named strip_tags() to remove HTML/script tags from a string. Kinda shoddy if you ask me, but everything seems to work just fine. However, I haven't done enough ASP programming to be able to make an in-depth comparison of the two. As far as I can tell, they are pretty much the same, though I don't know how PHP matches ActiveX controls. I think you'd have to write a custom extension for PHP and then recompile the binaries in order to get the same functionality you would normally get out of an ActiveX control. Sorry I don't have a better answer than that. Maybe tomorrow. It's bed time now. ;P Jon Sagara When I want something, I just go out and buy it. That makes me a go-getter. -- My sister

              I didn't use ASP much, but I know why I love PHP: 1. Very easy to use if you are familiar with C/C++ syntax. 2. You can program at a very low level (sockets, ..etc) 3. Widely available in hosting companies for no extra fees. 4. Available on both Windows/Linux hosts. 5. Integrates very well with a variety of databases. 6. Can be extended by programming your own extensions. 7. More popular than ASP, see hotscripts poll with about 40,000 voters (http://www.hotscripts.com/polls/results.hsp[^]) 8.
