Hi,

For assignment 1, please specify how the date should be shown, and by timezone, are we supposed to just display the current time?

Thanks
Mohammed

I think i understand now. We just display the date, week of the year and the computer timezone.

Is it fine if we display the time as well?

I would like to know about the hosting of my files.

Do i have to use the free hosting space? or can I use my own server that I currently host all sites on?

I have read everything, and cant seem to find any asnwers on this.

Will using my own choice of host affect my marks for assignment one awell as my portfolio?

Thanks!
Wes

You can use whatever server or hosting service you have access to.

Hey guys/girls.... do not direct these questions to me all the time. You are supposed to throw it into the "cloud" and support one another..... there is an element of self study involved here, else I can just send you all the steps smiling smiley

If XAMPP/EasyPHP is running on your PC, then no.

Have you installed apache either via xampp or easyphp? Sounds like the web server isn't configured correctly. Either that or it is and php isn't configured correctly. PHP pages will not interpreted by a web server without it and browsers cannot interpret server side code, hence the requirement for a web server.

Thanks will do that, but I did reinstall easy php and I think I will reconfigure it and see what happens.

The link at the bottom of the page, should it just be a normal text link or can it be e.g. a button, etc?

Please post a new topic. Do not now fit all questions under assignment 1.....

You can use a button.
The server is not in South Africa, so the time will be different.

//i used this code to open code as text for assignment one but i does not work, what did i do wrong? 
Language: PHP
<?php
 
$file=$_SERVER[';PHP_SELF';];// get the current file name
 
$the_file=ltrim("/",$file); //remove front slash on the filename
 
$data = file_get_contents($file); //get file contents
 
$code_text=str_replace("\n","<br>",$data);//replace break with new-line
?>			
<script type="text/javascript">
//use javascript to open new window and display php code
function thecode() {
 
		txtWindow=window.open("","","width=300, height=600");
		txtWindow.document.write(<?php $code_text?>);//write contents to the new window
 
 
		txtWindow.focus();
 
 
}
</script>

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr. As said, for the 10000000th time, use the formatted code button when posting code!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I will thus ignore this.
