Brilliant i like it!! Maybe i will change it one day.

OK thanks limbo for the heads up. I will have a good think about it and get back to you with my project progress.

I have the zune shh its not allowed over here yet. I love it i have had all the ipods and you know what as a first gen of a mp3/4 player i love it. And if the whispers are true the 2nd gen is out of this world.

Sorry Google will never rule the world. They may have a cult following but come on. Although near everyone hates m$ for some weird reason im sure we would all love to work there. Bill Gates is a geek and geeks are cool.

Genius kudos for him. Should be in tesco PR.

em strange question i dont know for sure i will find out and let you know my results

He is a genius,, i have a lot of respect him he had a lot of issues and has no dealt with them to get where he is today.

Its true unfortunately people undervalue the work that's involved in the IT sector public or private sector.

O wow what will they think of next!!

This is what you want!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BdateHrugFY

I like it mate!! Wkd. I wonder what OS god has?

Like if someone was to export it and i was into insert it into the table that i create in SQL what would the column names be? ID's? FIRST_NAME? etc Thanks all.

OK cool so i am really asking i suppose is: The student records database is there particular fields that need to go into an SQL database. Can this be exported as CSV file? I dont have access to any MIS systems.

No worries at all. I have joost beta invitation to give away if anyone wants one drop me a line dominic {at} live {dot} com

O yes i like it. Do you mind if i pick your brains then? The problem i can see myself having is whats the easiest way of getting the students details in the database and what layout should the table follow if any? You help would be much appreciated. (and rewarded)

O wow. Has anyone done one online? Like web 2.0 style. Just a thought.

That is some great advice lol You should do project managment!!! I would really like to see if it can be done. Probably have it branded under edugeek.

No worries mate. I may call on you for help one day. I have PM'd you my private msn address.

Ok i was hoping to create my own VLE in PHP. Do you think this would be difficult?

Something like this after the head. <br /> // If the browser is Firefox get the version number<br /> var ffv = 0;<br /> var ffn = "Firefox/"<br /> var ffp = navigator.userAgent.indexOf(ffn);<br /> if (ffp != -1) ffv = parseFloat(navigator.userAgent.substring(ffp + ffn.length));<br /> // If we're using Firefox 1.5 or above override the Virtual Earth drawing functions to use SVG<br /> if (ffv >= 1.5) {<br /> Msn.Drawing.Graphic.CreateGraphic=function(f,b) { return new Msn.Drawing.SVGGraphic(f,b) }<br /> }<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> var map = null;<br /> var pinID = 1;<br /> <br /> function GetMap(){<br /> map = new VEMap('myMap');<br /> map.LoadMap(new VELatLong(<?= $lat;?>, <?= $lon;?>), 12 ,'r' ,false);<br /> }<br /> function FindLoc(Loc){<br /> map.FindLocation(Loc);<br /> }<br /> function GetInfo(){<br /> alert('The top edge of the map on the Web page is at pixel: '+map.GetTop());<br /> alert('The left edge of the map on the Web page is at pixel: '+map.GetLeft());<br /> alert('The latitude,longitude at the center of the map is: '+map.GetCenter());<br /> alert('The current zoom level of the map is: '+map.GetZoomLevel());<br /> alert('The map control version is: '+VEMap.GetVersion());<br /> }<br /> function AddPin(){<br /> var pin = new VEPushpin(<br /> pinID,<br /> map.GetCenter(),<br /> 'images/anchor_sm.gif', <br /> '<? echo (isset($_GET['name']) && $_GET['name']!="")?$_GET['name']:"";?>',<br /> '<? echo (isset($_GET['address1']) && $_GET['address1']!="")?$_GET['address1']."<br /> ":"";?><? echo (isset($_GET['address2']) && $_GET['address2']!="")?$_GET['address2']."<br /> ":"";?><? echo (isset($_GET['town']) && $_GET['town']!="")?$_GET['town']."<br /> ":"";?><? echo (isset($_GET['county']) && $_GET['county']!="")?$_GET['county']."<br /> ":"";?><? echo (isset($_GET['postcode']) && $_GET['postcode']!="")?$_GET['postcode']."<br /> ":"";?>'<br /> );<br /> map.AddPushpin(pin);<br /> pinID++; <br /> } <br />

I am a PHP programmer too. So far it seems this is what seems to be the main language.

I have had a little look at that. Is it difficult to pick up?

Hey Guys, Just looking to get a feel of we all code in for the web. ASP.NET or PHP? Regards, Plugged_in

I have created a fix that enables Firefox 2 to work with Virtual Earth with all the same features as Firefox 1.5 (polylines, pushpins etc). Add the following code before you create your map (but after you have included the Virtual Earth API): // If the browser is Firefox get the version number var ffv = 0; var ffn = "Firefox/" var ffp = navigator.userAgent.indexOf(ffn); if (ffp != -1) ffv = parseFloat(navigator.userAgent.substring(ffp + ffn.length)); // If we're using Firefox 1.5 or above override the Virtual Earth drawing functions to use SVG if (ffv >= 1.5) { Msn.Drawing.Graphic.CreateGraphic=function(f,b) { return new Msn.Drawing.SVGGraphic(f,b) } } // Put your own code below this line Enjoy mate 8)
