    Flash vs. Java vs. ?

    I've been thinking about the problem, and one thing I would like users to do is to be able to use the application on their mobile devices, which of course means flash wouldn't be an option. Would you suggest just getting it done in Flash and worrying about mobile devices later?

    Flash vs. Java vs. ?

    I would like to create an interactive web application which allows a user to create a master timeline, and they can add intermittent points on the timeline. In addition they can click on any of those points and create a subtimeline (and add intermittent points on this line). Also, they can...

    Efficient way to search through a MySQL database

    I'm working on a project where I will be storing a body of text (with an ID number) in a database. I would like to have my users be able to associate themselves with this body of text (via their ID number). What would be the best way to store this information? For example, I could simply have...

    Help with form submission (involves javascript)

    So, would it be best if I just had a server-side validation? I've tried implementing one, and just sending the errors back through $_SESSION variables. Is this necessarily the best way to do it? Also, how would I make it so it not only sends back the errors, but also repopulates the form when...

    Help with form submission (involves javascript)

    I tried that, but it doesn't seem to work. In fact, it causes none of my other functions to work when I implement it. My javascript code is below. // ------------------------------------------------- // Checks if the form is valid function isFormValid(regForm) { if...

    Help with form submission (involves javascript)

    Yes, if the event returns false, it won't submit, but I have no way to track whether or not an error has been outputted. In any other program, I would just use a boolean value for this, but seeing as how I'm just calling specific functions and not running a whole program, I don't know how to...

    Help with form submission (involves javascript)

    I am working on a registration form for my website and I got it to output the errors in their registration form as they are typing using javascript and ajax (such as a username already being used or password too short), but I'm not sure how to make it so they can't submit the form unless they...

    Accessing my music over the internet

    I currently just play music through my stereo using the optical output, but I want to be able to access that computer from my laptop via either my home network or the internet(which would probably be a lot tougher), and tell the computer attached to my stereo to play certain playlists or songs...

    C++, help with coding chess

    The reason I didn't make Board a class is because it doesn't do anything other than being a container, I didn't really see the point. Anyway someone from another forum helped me out and we got it working, thanks anyways guys!

    C++, help with coding chess

    My pieces need to be able to know if the current move is valid or not (checking if a piece is in the new location, and if the piece is allowed to move that way), and the only way to do this would be for them to have access to the board.

    C++, help with coding chess

    I'm fine with initializing the pieces, I just did it this way: Rook* bRook1 = new Rook(0, 0, 2); Board[0][0] = bRook1; and did that for each piece. I might implement your idea of having the actual moving take place in the Game class, but nonetheless the Queen/King/etc classes still need...

    No I don't have a reference to Board in my subclass definitions, how would I go about doing that? I've never been very good with using pointers.

    C++, help with coding chess

    In my chess program I have a base class called Piece with 6 subclasses of each piece type (King, Queen, Rook, Knight, Bishop, Pawn), as well as a class called Game, which handles all of the gameplay. In my Game class header, I declare a two dimensional array Pieces (Piece* Board[8][8]). The...

    Some PHP Syntax help

    Thanks for your help and tips guys, especially with the mysql_real_escape_string(). But I've ran into another problem, and instead of starting a new thread, I'll just post it here.

    Some PHP Syntax help

    I've been learning php for the last week or so, and it doesn't seem like a very complicated language, but the one thing that keeps tripping me up is where it is required/proper to use single quotes ( '.....' ) around a variable. For example, I've been working on a simple login script, but it...

    College - Building A Cantenna

    There's no way It'll be able to register, I'm too far away. I have an iPhone, which isn't 3g, but I'll try it anyway. I'll also try slowly walking towards our commons area and see how close I have to be to get a signal. But seriously, would a cantenna (built right) be able to pick up a signal...

    College - Building A Cantenna

    I am attending PSU for college, and we are limited to uploading 2gb of data and downloading 2gb of data per week. However, when we are on the campus wireless network, it doesn't count against us. Since I love tv and download at least 2gb of my shows per week, I wanted to see if I can build a...

    If I Unlock My iPhone...

    So, I'll have to alter my plan. Does it cost anything to downgrade to just the data plan? Second, about how long does it take to do this? Could I get everything squared away within 24 hours of starting? Finally, is it legal to unlock it?

    Extremely Odd Computer Problems

    I just set up my laptop and everything at college for the first time, but the strangest thing is happening with my printer. I've used my printer for a couple years before I set it up today, so it works fine, but whenever I try to print something, the printer will just shoot out a blank sheet of...

    My friend just got a Mac the other day, and she came to me with a question about viewing the cd's she puts into the drive. Since I don't own a Mac either, I'm relaying it to you guys. Windows has always had the handy My Computer section to view all the media you plug into your computer. Is there...

    Where Are The 360 Guitar Hero 2 Wireless Controllers?

    So I've been looking all over the nets and I can't find any wireless guitars for the 360. Is it just my bad search skills or are there not any out yet for the 360?

    Looking For A Dual Monitor Setup

    So, I'm going off to college in the fall, and as most dorm rooms are relatively small, I want to get a monitor setup that can "do it all." I'm going to be using it mostly for Maya, Photoshop, pc gaming, console gaming, and watching the TV. I'm really leaning towards a dual monitor display...

    (Desperate) What Should I Do?

    But if it's between SLI 7800GTX 256mb's or a single 8800GTS 640mb's, what would win in performance? Would the 8800 be worth the extra money?

    (Desperate) What Should I Do?

    So I'm upgrading my pc for when I go off to college, but I'm stumped as to what to do with my graphics card. I have a BFG Geforce 7800GTX (SLI Ready), and I'm confused as to whether I should buy a second one and go SLI (eBay for about $200) or if I should just go and buy a BFG Geforce 8800GTS...

    Noobish Questions

    This may sound like an extremely stupid question to you guys, but with HTPC's, the video goes from your dvd drive, through the DVI or the TV-Out, and into your tv, correct? If that's the case, then isn't the picture quality on your tv limited to how good your graphics card is? Also, I've seen...

    What Device Uses PCI-E x8 ?

    I'm going to be upgrading my PC soon for college (mobo/processor/ram/graphics), and I was thinking of getting this board, but it comes with a PCI-E x8 slot, and it got me thinking what actually uses this slot. If it's for something that I would probably never use, I would rather get one with 3...

    WHY?

    Ah, you totally should have put those pics up. At least justice was swift and harsh. And things don't really have to be "dug up" in the PhotoChop section, it was probably still on the front page lol. No one goes on here anymore.

    Customized Myspace Layout

    Haha, I just took a look at your myspace and since my connection sucks, I was just watching the myspace crap slowly disappear with your stuff going over it. Nice work. Where did you put your overlay div at? I might try this myself.

    Design Ideas For My Next Site?

    I actually bookmarked that after I saw it on digg. I was going to put up a picture of my cousin and I in that style. It's really hard to do it with a mouse though, I hear tablets are a lot easier.

    Design Ideas For My Next Site?

    I know you said not to steal their code, I was just trying to state that it would be too much trouble to go through to steal it. Plus, I like doing things on my own, so... Put frankly, I have no interest in stealing code.
