Building a Blog with Dreamweaver, PHP, and MySQL-

Hi all
I posted in the general forum, a few days ago and so far, no response. So, I found this thread. For those of us who cannot shell out money for the Kollection bundle, is it possible to go forward with the tutorial? I'm almost ready to go on the fourth part (out of 6) and well, cannot complete because I can not install the necessary software. I understand that Adobe has bought and abandoned the free trial. I also posted on the forum of interAKT. I have a vague feeling that I am myself here, judging by the slow response in several other forums. I left comments with Adobe as well, but if someone can point me in another direction to implement a user / membership section using other tutorials/sites that do not require spending $400.00, not that it isn't worth it, I just don't have it, it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

Tutorial-part 4:

Steve

There is a 6 part series that I wrote a few years to the Community MX free
for members or a small fee for non-members which shows how to generate a very
blog of simple using only the tools of DW.

http://communitymx.com/search.cfm?searchbox=simple+blog+part+6

Or use the suggestion of David and Wordpress. You can't beat Wordpress so all the
you need is a blog. If you use the tutorials to learn PHP and
DW, then WP won't help, however.

  • Beginning with PHP and MySQL

    Hello

    I'm learning PHP and MySQL to build a dynamic web site. My webhost has very good support and they offer Linux or Windows servers. I've always used Windows servers, but I think on the use of a Linux server for my new web site. (I used asp with an Access database on a Windows Server, but that's the extent of my lats programming at this point).

    Here are my questions: do I need no knowledge of Linux to use as a server for my web site? (The web hosting company will make the configuration and MySQL databases are included by default with Linux servers). Also, there are disadvantages of using Linux?

    Thank you

    Michael

    David,

    Thanks for all the great information. Yes, my hosting company is the latest versions of MySQL and PHP. I have been using Web Strike Solutions for the last 3 years and I have about 10 websites with them. They are always updating their apps and have very good support.

    As by chance, I'm reading your book, "PHP for Dreamweaver. Do you recommend using the Apache server in this book, but I've always been reluctant to work with UNIX or LINUX. But it occurred to me it would not have a large knowledge of Linux, because the host will take care of all configurations. I also looked at your book, PHP Solutions, and this book has achieved nothing else that the stellar reviews on Amazon. After I get my website to the top and go, I intend to order this book as well. I also ordered a few books of Larry Ullman on MySQL and PHP. So, between books and this forum (in the case that I am really stuck), I think I'm in good shape.

    Thanks again!

  • Pre-Noob question, Flash Builder for PHP and MySQL... can pack and write?

    So I am COMPLETELY new to Flash Builder and Flex universe, but I'm familiar with PHP / MySQL. One thing that has not been specifically stated to me, is what Flash Builder with (Zend) PHP with the MySQL database when it is packaged and exported? If he did enter the database and is able to execute the query PHP application to the MySQL database within the application?

    I'm confused if she needs to go on the web and communicate with the server. Can he communicate with a LOCAL database?

    Thank you!!

    No Flash Builder package not the final result with data base and

    webserver. To run your application locally you would need to have a

    PHP and Mysql Web server running on your local computer.

    Maybe watch using wamp http://www.wampserver.com

    http://www.imonggo.com/> on your local computer.

    Otherwise I suggest you will probably need to create your program in

    Java who can speak directly to local databases without the need for php.

  • Muse work with PHP and MySQL

    I have an investigation designed to go to a page of a site.  The designer will be using PHP and MySQL.  Compatible?

    Thanks for any help.

    SS

    Not really relevant. Whatever your designer will do will have to be inserted manually in HTML customized or by editing the HTML files published one way or another. It has nothing to do any with the Muse herself and the design of the process beyond 'make room', i.e. respective free addition where the code can be inserted.

  • Save my Clip Positions of film with PHP and MySQL

    Hello

    I created a video (FLV) Player, who just plays my videos. Everything works fine and I would like to add a new button to save the position according to which the film played up to. So I can come back later and have the opportunity to play the film to the point that the last time he was arrested. Therefore, I need to save my Clip Positions of film with PHP and MySQL.

    So far, I created a button that saves the position of the my video clip "ns.time' in a variable. I'm currently just display this variable, but I need to export to my file PHP where it gets sorted to be sent to mySQL database. Could you tell m e how can be down or where I can find more material (tutorial) to achieve this.

    I tried to export using 'getURL(url,window,method)' that points to my PHP file. But for some reason any when he sends some information to my php and not only the Position of Movie Clip. I realized from the address line that attempts to send millions of movie flow information, etc..

    I realized that Flash tries to send information of my Listbox and trees which are the list of film clips I have. I don't know why he's trying to send this information! Is anyway I can stop the Flash to send information to my PHP file and send only the value of my a Variable?

    Here's how I send the value of the Variable entry in the PHP file...

    getURL (" http://www.myDomainName.com/aishopper/test2/matrix.php","", "GET" ");

    Thank you so much and have a great day.

  • Chinese characters in forms PHP and MySQL CS6

    Hello. I followed then adapted from David Power dynamic Web Tutorial sites to set up a basic online dictionary site. MySQL works very well for 4 of the 5 fields - post_id, pinyin, and updated. But the main field is hanzi - which should have Chinese characters. When I enter them using a form, MySQL doesn't show that '? 'or'? ' in the fields. Similarly, if I manually enter the correct characters in MYSQL through PHPAdmin, bed Web site as '?

    I did some research on this problem and found this page encoding or the ranking parameters may be the problem. So I put the 'MySQL connection classification"and the field classification table & hanzi to"GB2312_chinese_ci"for Chinese characters simplified. I also changed the encoding of PHP pages in < meta http-equiv = "Content-Type" content = text/html"; charset = GB2312"/ >

    However, I will still have almost the same problems. Rather than get a value of "?"or"?" in the hanzi MySQL field, I now get variations "? ±«.

    I am very new to PHP and MySQL, but as I said, the real pages and forms and queries are works well for all the fields with the exception of the character Chinese one.

    Help, please!

    OK thank you fixed your advice, Kenneth.

    I have been researching unicode & mysql and finally found this page that it started running properly: http://blog.al-aqel.com/programming/fix-and-store-unicode-in-mysql-php/

    As you say, establish codes of characters and rankings mysql to 'utf8_general_ci' including the server, database, tables & fields.

    Also, it is the addition of "mysql_set_charset('utf8')"; in my PHP pages this server accessed. This was in addition to affecting the UTF-8 character set in the page's meta tags.

    Awesome! Now have working Chinese simplified in my PHP pages, forms and MySQL database.

    Thank you again and hope that it might help others with similar problems.

  • Sites Web using php and mysql successfully stopped the week last of sorting drop-down lists. Change something?

    We run a programme of internal timesheet open source called Timesheet Next Gen available on Sourceforge. We have it worked for a few years without any problems. We moved all of our Firefox users because the developer has indicated that there are questions of the sort associated with PHP and MYSQL via Internet Explorer. Dropdown lists using surveyed data did not follow the order of sorting and list have been blurred without order with duplicate entries. We had experienced this on our Windows 7 workstations in Internet Explorer (any version) and everything worked fine in Firefox. For some of us with the MacBook, the sort worked well in Firefox and Safari.

    Departure last week (perhaps Tuesday or Wednesday) all our users to Workstation Windows 7 has started to have the same sorting problems in Firefox with our internal website of timesheet. There is no change for timesheet Web site or the server that is running as much as php and server extensions web apache. I've since updated the server (Ubuntu) and apache, mysql and php are underway. Now sort in Firefox has stop working on our mac workstations. Safari is the only browser that works. We have installed Chrome on mac and Windows 7 and it does not sort either.

    To wrap to the top of this thread, the solution is available here: http://sourceforge.net/p/tsheetx/discussion/779084/thread/02841540/

    The general idea behind that the solution can be applied to other projects where a JavaScript object is created in PHP and you need access to its members in order of addition.

  • Code works with Dreamweaver CS6 and not CC

    " < p > < a href =" javascript:void (0) "onclick =" window.open ('http://www.anything.comt', "'top = 20, left = 20, toolbar = 0, statusbar = 1, scrollbars = 1, resizable = 1')" title = "title" > name < /a > < /p > working with Dreamweaver CS6 and not CC


    [Edited the title and moved to Dreamweaver - JTS]

    I'm not sure I understand your point of view.

    I just tested the behavior of Dreamweaver CC open in browser window. It creates slightly different Dreamweaver CS6 code, but it works correctly. This is what is created in the HTML code:

    My http://www.adobe.com/ mywindow "," "," toolbar = Yes, location = Yes, status = Yes, menubar = Yes, ars scrollb = yes, resizable = yes') "> link"

    CC of Dreamweaver also adds the following code to theto the page:

    The MM_openBrWindow() function definition is necessary in thefor the code to work. But it really works OK.

    In regards to the _self and _blank not working do not, I find no problem with how Dreamweaver CC manages them.

    However, if you feel happier working with Dreamweaver CS6, you can download it from the following page:

    https://creative.Adobe.com/products/Dreamweaver

    Open the menu drop-down slot "in this version" and select next Dreamweaver CS6, as shown in the screenshot:

    With Dreamweaver CS6 selected, click the big button at the top right of the page download. You can download CS6 then install it alongside CC of Dreamweaver.

  • PHP and MySQL Connection problem

    I'm doing a PHP MySQL on a connection to the remote server in Dreamwesaver CS3.

    When I enter the information (host, user, password, etc.) and hit TEST, I get the following error message.

    "Access is denied. The file exists may not, or there could be a permission problem. Make sure you have permission on the server and the server is properly configured. »

    I know how to work the user, password, etc., I can access the MySQL database with other software.

    I checked with my host and they say that there is no permission problem on their end.

    I checked the settings on the Test Server page in the configuration of a Site and everything looks correct and works there.

    I've seen this particular problem described in other messages of the forum (even if there are a LOT of comments on this topic!).

    Any help would be appreciated.

    pabirds, I had the same problem. Here's the solution that worked for me:

    1. make sure that you have clicked on the tab Advanced in the Definition of Site pane, and then

    2. Select testing serverin the list on the left side of the pane, and then

    3. set Host FTP on host your site, your e.g. ftp.yoursite.com or ftp.yoursite.eu, then

    4. set the host directory according to the hierarchy of your hosting service, it will probably be something like: areas / www / htdocs or /. To determine this, when you have window Dreamweaver files open in two columns, expand the root of your site. Then

    5. set your prefix on the URL of the root of your site, then your example http://www.yoursite.com/ or http://www.yoursite.eu/,

    6. use your connection user/pass combination.

    I my case, step 4 has been the cause of my sudden increase in gray hair and elevation of blood pressure.

  • Creating a tag HTML with Dreamweaver/Muse and its import for Joomla?

    Hello

    I was wondering if it is able to find a way to connect between Joomla and Adobe Dreamweaver.

    So I'm a designer and I would like to use my skills in design of photoshop and illustrator to create a Web site. So I'm reshape an Internet site to my work and their site is out of Joomla. I know how to import photoshop or illustrator Dreamweaver files and download a html on the web, but I did not download a html/css for Joomla. I have no idea whatsoever about Joomla, but I am familiar with HTML and CSS, and its conversion to filezilla.

    Please help, I want my online drawing or an overview of Joomla and see how it goes from there because I'm not a developer... just a designer.

    Thank you.

    You do not import HTML/CSS in Joomla and you can copy and paste your code in a selective way.

    Joomla already has a Web page for you and all you have to do is to copy the content of your page of DW in Joomla.  This means all the code between the....the HTML tags in the code editor for DW.  All this is done in 'Items', and you will need to switch between HTML and WYSIWYG editor.

    Also, please note that Joomla 3.4.8 (the current version) uses "bootstrap" version 2.3.2 and there is no easy way to upgrade to version 3.3.6 bootstrap one we use in DW.  The tutorial for 2.3.2 are at this link:

    http://GetBootstrap.com/2.3.2/base-CSS.html

    http://GetBootstrap.com/2.3.2/components.html

    http://GetBootstrap.com/2.3.2/scaffolding.html

    Codes between the two versdioins are very different, so when you post a question here, you must indicate your Bootstrap version.

    Of course I refer to default Joomla template called protostar (it's free) but some premium models have already managed to create new models for Bootstrap 3.3.6.

    Good luck.

  • Site template with menu PHP and its subdirectories

    Hello

    I am relatively new to using PHP, but wanted to call up menus in all my pages using the "Include" command

    My problem is I want to build a website using DW templates and I have the code <? PHP include '... menu.php'?; > to call the menu.

    However when my pages are in a different directory the menu links does not automatically change to the new directory.

    IE: if I go to index/event_services.html, and then click the home button (index.html) he wants to return to the index of the directory its in. See the sample below that I am struggling to explain it.

  • Send an email with php and mysql

    I want a visitor to my site click on a field in mysql to email with a BCC to me also, I want the link to show 'Send an email' not the e-mail address of the field

    There is no way to hide a BCC address with a mailto link, because it just opens the e-mail program of the user with the address fields filled in.

    What I would recommend is to create a contact form, as described in Chapter 5 of PHP Solutions. Using PHP to send the form hides your email address and all BCC addresses. It appears from your description that the email will be sent to different people according to which the link is clicked. If this is the case, the programming becomes more complex, but you can solve this problem, once you have learned how to create a contact form and email with PHP.

    I hope PHP Solutions is sufficient for your needs, but I warn you to take Chapter 3 slowly. Do not try to memorize everything in Chapter 3. Just have a general idea for how the language is structured and re-enter the chapter whenever you need to refresh your memory. If you feel the need for another book, I think that the books of Visual Quick Start of Larry Ullman are good.
