I've apparently worded it the wrong way. They are not telling ME that I am dead ... they are telling everyone else that I am dead. Put it this way. Everyone you ask tells you that I am dead. You believe that to be fact because you can find no evidence to the contrary but in the meantime I am actually alive and well and hiding at my compound in Bora Bora. Just because a certain group says something is fact does not make it a fact.

Okay .. here's the thing. I can have everyone that knows me tell the world that I am dead. Does that make it a fact? No. That's what I meant about obfuscate. As for the DNA ... who's to say that it in fact is Bin Laden's DNA they have tested. It could Billy Joe Bob's DNA that they are comparing. If that is the case ... then it would indeed match. Right?

3 rules to avoid capture for as long as possible. 1) Hide in plain sight with minimal alteration to your physical appearance. 2) Reside in a semi- rich to mega-rich area. 3) Obfuscate. I think Bin Laden knew these rules very well. Anyone associated with him directly would know the same. One of 2 things ... he has been dead for years and his compadres have been leading everyone on a merry chase ... or he is still alive. In the long run ... all this publicity makes him a martyr for his cause and a larger than life figurehead. As for Obama and his administration ... whether it's fact or not ... he has projected the image to the world that he and his administration can be trusted to take care of the problem which increases trade with the US which increases revenue which reverses the recession. "Need a problem solved. Deal with us. Bring your money."

You seem very erudite. Spudinski = Potatoe Head ;)

Dark - generally used to describe something negative, like a dark soul

1) A stable economy 2) Easily understood Help Tutorial 3) No surprises IE: getting to a certain level and finding out afterwards that you can't do certain things anymore. 4) Admin that actually respond to questions. 5) Admin that consider player input for new ideas. 6) New features being added 7) A system that allows non-donators the ability to do the same as donators, albeit with more work. 8) Moderating staff that are not biased.

I know that I should close the form tags ... however .. it was the only way that I could get this to work and post all 4 pieces of data to the db. As for getting it to go to the explore.php after it is submitted ... I have tried all the various ways to get it to do so and I have had no luck whatsover.

Okay ... this is the full code that I am trying to get to work ... I finally have it so that it posts all the info to the database. Yay!! But I can not get it to redirect to the explore.php page. I've tried the form action under all 4 sections ... no dice. Tried onclick and onsubmit ... still no dice. Tried meta tags ... even tried header redirect and none of them will bring it to the explore page. Any suggestions. <?php include "globals.php"; global $db, $ir, $c, $userid, $h; $name1=$_POST['charname1']; $type1=$_POST['type1']; $gender1=$_POST['gender1']; $alignment1=$_POST['alignment1']; print "<br /><br />Your first character.<br /><br />"; print "<br /><br /><u><b>Type in your first characters name.</u></b><br /><br /> <form method='post'> <input type='text' size='10' maxlength='40' name='charname1'>";   print "<u><b>Choose your first characters type.</u></b><br /> <form method='post'> Lycan<input type='radio' name='type1' value='lycan' /><br /> Vampire<input type='radio' name='type1' value='vampire' /><br /> Angel<input type='radio' name='type1' value='angel' /><br /> Demon<input type='radio' name='type1' value='demon' /><br />"; print "<u><b>Choose your first characters gender.</u></b><br /> <form method='post'> Male<input type='radio' name='gender1' value='male' /><br /> Female<input type='radio' name='gender1' value='female' /><br />"; print "<u><b>Choose your first characters alignment.</u></b><br /> <form method='post'> Good<input type='radio' name='alignment1' value='good' /><br /> Evil<input type='radio' name='alignment1' value='evil' /><br /><br /> <input type='submit' name='submit' value='Submit your first character.'> </form><br />"; $db->query("INSERT INTO charone VALUES('".$ir['userid']."','$name1','$type1','$gender1','$alignment1')"); $h->endpage(); ?>

I have been struggling with the onclick for a while now. Basically what I would like to accomplish is when the submit button is clicked it brings you to another page and no matter how I set it up it doesn't work. I've included a mock function so that it will help me to understand this better. Thanks in advance for your suggestions/help.   function whatever() { global $db, $ir, $c, $userid, $h; $variable=$_POST['variable']; { print "<br /><br /><method='post'>Type in whatever.<br /><br /> <input type='text' size='10' maxlength='40' name='variable'> <input type='submit' name='submit' value='Submit'> //When they click the submit button it would take them to yadayada.php </form>"; $db->("INSERT INTO table VALUES('$variable')");

Not sure but I think you need more brackets there ... try this. ".number_format($stat['strength_extra']) = ($stat['strength'] * 1.02)." Or define your variable as; $strength_extra=($strength * 1.02)

Did I say it mattered? No. Nor am I taking the **** out of anyone. I am curious that is all. I thought the whole idea of this forum as a community was to offer support and advise so that we can ALL have a good experience. If that is all he has done then all the more power to him. Everyone is always so quick to talk about originality around here ... it just seems to me that if this is what he has done .. he is not going to enjoy his end result and have few "players" to show for it because it will lack in originality, which will lead to him having a poor experience with it from the get go. With all of the competition out there it just seems to me that something like this would get burried at the bottom of possible games to sign up for. Call me crazy, but I think the more original it is from the beginning the better luck you have at success. And yes, before you say it ... it is his right to do so. But wouldn't you rather see someone succeed than fail?

I'm curious. You just bought Mccodes and you already have a game up? Have you added anything interesting to it ... or did you just slap it up there with a name and that was it?

I'm not sure if there is a step that I am missing or not ... but when ever I look at any of the mods ... I have to click on the "reply with quote" in order to see the code. Is there a setting that I should have set up in order to view the code without doing this?

It would be something along the lines of: ".$stat['strength_extra']." = (".$stat['strength'].") * 1.02

I'm not very good with php but I would assume that you would have to make a separate area (table) on the users profile much like the users profile pic and add a link showing the award.

*facepalms* Thanks for the info!

Just a quick note ... the friends and contact list did not import either.

I figured that part out already. My concern is that when looking for things in the forums and in order to subscribe to them ... you have to post something in that thread (unless I am missing something) which means that a lot of the old threads will end up being brought current again. It seems to me that that would be like necro-ing an old thread. I know in a lot of other forums this is highly frowned upon. Is there a way to subscribe to a thread without posting to it?

Well this certainly was a surprise! It will take some getting used to as I found the previous set up very easy to navigate. Once used to this one I'm sure it will be the same thing here. I do have a question though ... I used to have a huge list of favourites that I could refer back to when trying to make my own mods ... any idea how I can get those back or if there is even a feature in the new set up that will allow us to do that?

Hello, WRX ... Excellent work!! If you are interested ... I would like you to make one for me. I will pay you for your time if you like. PM me ... thanks a bunch.

Congratulations you two! :thumbsup:

My mistake ... thought you said he had no login. :wacko:

Look in the upper right hand corner.

I really like it, Dayo. I'm just wondering though (for myself anyway) if the text that you have as grey wouldn't be better as a muted red or orange maybe. The grey on black is sometimes hard to see. Then again .. red and orange would rule out people who are colour blind being able to see it as well. The tone and layout go very well together. Well done.

Illusions already knows that I think he walks on water and can part the seas. :thumbsup: Oh ... and did you know that he is psychic as well. :D
