Well I could make one huge poll, or try to narrow it down a bit. I have tried to shown the most known families around and still keep the poll small. If I have left out the one you are using, please don't be mad and just post it, who knows what surprise it brings. I could have never made a poll with all different versions of linux around anyways. Why this poll? purely out of interest to see what families have the bigger influence in this world, or atleast on MWG. Before you vote, please keep the following things in mind though. This poll is only meant for DESKTOP use, ubuntu server, centos, freebsd as your favourite server OS wouldn't fit in this poll. In other words, you would have to use a GUI on your OS, else I wouldn't count. I can't control what you do though but I do hope all of you can participate in a fair polling and have a nice and constructive discussion!   I personally prefer ubuntu, it's the one I have the most experience with as well. I have snooped around in kubuntu, fedora, freebsd, opensuse, debion, centos and mythbuntu for various reasons, many of these were just as try-outs now and then, and not because I wanted to use them. I've actually never moved away from ubuntu.   Notes: - You can only vote for ONE option, but you can still change your vote afterwards - If there is a distro not added yet, either post it, or send me a PM, I'll add it and then you can vote for yours ;)

I've also been using java for a couple of years now - nothing business related however - so I just know my bits and bobs. The nice thing is that with java you can make desktop applications AND website applets AND jsp/jsf webpages (they each have their specific things though, but java always comes back!). Java can be difficult, but it can also made easy and quite fast with the correct tools and other knowledge, if you know UML/OOAD for example, there are tools that can create a base java code from those "design languages". Of course, you need to know those things that come before java - it's nice, but it takes a while before you actually get to java. But java his some big buts too, as A_Bertrand already mentioned, I don't know how recent his experience is, and how long he has been working with java, but java can be a real pain. jsp/jsf has the least of these problems as they are actually similar to php or asp, background code processed on the server, html code presented to a user. Applets already run in a browser, so before a user can run the applet, he/she needs to have the correct JDK installed on the computer in order to work. If you program in an older java version, code might be deprecated in newer version (other way around can give the very same problem). And as extra for the applets, you have the problem with browser versions (yay!) just like css and html, IE and FF use different ways of loading java applets. As a last, applications have the same problem as any other non-java application, there is a huge difference in OS platforms, once uses Win XP another uses Win 7, not to mention all linux distributions. But also remember that it has all these problems because it also offers a lot! If you would like to learn something new, or a new challenge, don't be afraid to start with java. As we already mentioned, it has it flaws but it can do actually a lot, a very lot! And all of this while it isn't that hard. May I also note that java has an excellent community, is open source, has a big company behind them like SUN, has almost perfected tools (like netbeans), and can be integrated with quite a lot. Even adding mysql to your java project isn't that hard. I have actually enjoyed java now and then, but it has bored me as well :P I would say, go for it and if you do have any questions, we'll be here to help you.

@ThaSkiMaskWay: Yes your way of doing this works fine, however imagine yourself making about a few thousands, if not a million, username images just because a user changes his name? It can all work fine, however this isn't automated, you have to spend time doing it (even though, adding a new layer with a username doesn't take long, you still have to upload it, and edit a users settings). What mdshare did here, is post the base of a script that would automate this process. This means that you wouldn't need to spend creating a new image each time a user changes his or her nickname - which can be a real pain if you have quite a userbase! Therefore automating this event, would give you more time to spend on other things, while users get there images quite instantly, with the possibility of adding extra options to the script. They're happy, you are probably happy too. And once it's made, you actually don't have to look at it anymore - unless you want to change the base image - which takes up a little bit of time and you're good again. But keep in mind that having such a script comes with a price! It isn't a php version of photoshop, and it's quite heavy on resources, yet this can have quite a lot of possibilities. I hope this can clear up some extra things.

Option E: none of the above depending on what kind of script, I use various development environments. Openkomdo/Komodo Edit, visual studio and intellij idea are the ones I use.

The code you showed is the part where you actually have an overview of the people that are already in hospital, not for how long you put them into it. I believe you'll need to find the attackend.php file and look into that. there should be 3 options - i think - for the player (hosp mug leave) where the system also puts the user into the hospital, reduce that time and your members will spend lesser time in hospital.

The code I supplied does work, I just tested this out on a test page, and it shows without any errors at all so it must be on your end. Please post the whole scrip as it must be something else then.

clearly, you haven't looked far into the basics of PHP, which you should if you want to continue with it. your problem is that you just pasted some html code into a php script, you cannot do that! You need to print/echo everything into the page so it reaches the browser of a user, and does not get processed by the php interpreter. Use the code below and you should be fine, but again, look into the basics of php, as it's a fault you made against that.   <h3>[url='register.php']REGISTER NOW![/url]</h3> <center>Copyright © 2009 Kidkwik.com</center>"; print <<<EOG <script type="text/javascript"><!-- google_ad_client = "pub-2439858441801001"; /* 468x60, created 9/8/09 */ google_ad_slot = "4082761804"; google_ad_width = 468; google_ad_height = 60; //--> </script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"> </script> EOG; print "</body></html>"; ?>

I'm pretty sure it's not because you're trying to add something, it's more likely you are adding it in the wrong way to a php script. I would really advise you to paste the lines around the error line ... this would help us a lot in helping you with your problem, else I'm afraid we can't help much.

If your script is a javascript file it can be linked by simply using <script src = "location"> ... else you'll need to throw in the full javascript code between the script tags as you would actually use it yourself by doing <html> <title></title> <head> </head> <body> <script> javascript code</script>   now mcc lite uses it differently as you said, you still need to do the very same to the html, like below <?php session_start(); print <<<EOF <html> <head> <script> javascript code</script> more html yada yada yada print "</body></html>"; ?> as you can see, this is actually exact the same, only difference is that there is an php print around it.   this error just tells you it comes across an "<" sign where it doesn't expect one. so check lines 124 to 128 (eventually copy and paste them into here) and make sure there are no php errors.

So you are going to keep track of a few programs that might be interesting? Might become a huge list! And how will you decided what ones that will come on the list, as not all are compatible with all os's and such :P Openkomodo (development) Filezilla (ftp client/server) Pidgin (chat program) Xchat (irc client - 30days trial on windows - unlimited on linux) Kvirc (irc client) Netbeans (development)   Some other tools that other people might use and are worth mentioning for sure Opera - Chrome Star office notepad2, editplus, phpedit, geany, gedit, ... evolution (mail) totem, miro, media player classic (video playing)

Hey seanybob! welcome back. This board is still active yes, we switched about a week ago from CE to MWG. The current message limit has been set on 200. You can go to your profile > Settings > Display Settings and change the amount of Private messages to show on one page. If you have a lot of messages displaying more will be easier to delete. On each page you'll have a listing of pm x to pm y, select the heading box (next to subject, author, date), and you'll select all pm's on that page, so it should go fairly quick doing it this way. If you really do not want to do this, as I'm afraid there is no other mass delete option, you could always contact a board admin via irc and see if they can solve this issue in a different way.

I've had the same problem before, close your tab and clear your browsers cache and cookies, then restart your browser and open this site again, and you will not - better said should not - experience any further problems. I had to do this, and I know one person has also experience this. Currently I'm logged in since an hour after the forum change has happened. This equals 55running hours over a couple of days, without having to log in again, so yes it is possible to just stay logged in during browsing sessions.

There are people who like it too, I'm sure of that as we've had positive comments as well. Please give it some time, it will better ;) It's like changing from a manual transmission to an automatic one, you need to get used to it, but you'll be able to drive, just like you are able to post.

If I could choose I would prefer the stay logged in forever as well, but currently I didn't have to login again as I didn't close my browser yet after several days of hibernating :p

More help on this is always welcome. Things that could help me for example are: - a link to the page (so I can test it out myself) - a line where the code goes wrong if you know that - any other error message or info we should know about I could help you with this, but then I want you to pm me the link to this file on your site so I can take a quick look instead of the source as this does not provide the info I would like.

welcome back pajpaj :D *wonders if he would know who I am*

Honestly, there is no point in doing that as we recently have added a scripts vault so if someone has a script that they would like to add to the database, they can. It's also a much more detailed place then just a zip file which gives us more management options at the very same time. Once users are used to this vault, they'll be able to browse through all mods way easier as it should have some nice extras, but these options aren't visible yet at the time. Creating a zip file with all mods might also give the problem of duplicates or adding not fully working mods as they sure are out there. Now people will have a simple option to show other users that there is something wrong with the mod, whether it's a comment, or a bad rating. Just hang on to it.

Re: [MMCODES V2] HACKING ATTEMPTS LOGGED It's the only folder that came with rest of the files, so upload it again and you'll be fine. If you do not have this, then contact them. But note that this class/class_db_mysql.php is related to the mcc engine, other engine may not use this.

Re: why dont i get any events when sending crystals or money? To add an even you'll need to look up the function "event_add()" make sure you fill it with the correct parameters and you'll be fine! This function can be found in the global_func.php file You'll have to add the line somewhere in the success field of your processing.

Re: Crimes then the warning will stay there. but depending on what page it is, it can be solved quite easily. For instance, the banks on the stats page produces this error if no one has opened a bank, open one bank, and the error will be gone. But I don't know if it's that error, most likely not. But I would get rid of any errors, by fixing them ;)

Re: Crimes   As it says, you are trying to divide something by 0, and anyone with a basic level of mathematical knowledge, knows that's something we don't want to happen. So the system is warning you. You need to get rid of the division by 0 to get rid of the warning, so make sure the value hold somethings different as 0.

Re: cron job help? Depends, if they stop working at all, move to a host that allows you to make use of more server resources or that just doesn't block crons. But first, check whether you have set the run times correctly or not.

Re: FlameSpark - Test us now in BETA! New engine or not, it doesn't mean much. I care more about the looks, how it performs, how it works rather then it's a new one, or an old one that's being digged up. All the things you claim to have, we can't see, so you can talk as much about them as you would like. If I don't see it personally, that's a no go for me. And I can't give you any feedback on it either. But as I said before, i'll wait till you have a bit more to show before I jump to any conclusions. it's just, at this point, I had expected more of you ;)

Re: FlameSpark - Test us now in BETA! I'm sorry to say oxi, but till this point, this isn't a dime better as mcc ... I'll keep following your updates but I really expected a lot more at, even at this point. I'm kinda disappointed already. If only what we could say was as much as your posts are, it would be better I guess. But ofcourse this still is a "early stage", so I'll wait a bit longer before my final verdict :p But I do hope you'll change a lot before you release this!

Re: My plan Sortof yes, it's a program you install on your computer and as long your pc is turned on (no internet connection is required) you can access all your sites and edit them to your own needs. Once you have installed it, you start it up and apache php and mysql will be loaded automatically and you can get to work. However, keep in mind that is meant to be a local web server and not one that provides you a web host! It can be done, but that requires more..
