  1. Working like a treat, the only thing that didnt work on IE was the format of: It must be: 80mm;> for it to work.
  2. That seems perfect, your correct I can edit the HTML or insert a class to do what I want so I need the help of javascript. Your code does look perfect! Unfortunately I'm not that strong on JavaScript so I'm unsure how to: 1. Use the code in the example above 2. Create an Onload event to use the script above. If anyone could help i'd appreciate it.
  3. Genius! I'll make the changes and get it published.
  4. Im trying to find a script to replace some hard coded html: I want to replace height:80mm; with height:50mm; when the page loads? Can anyone offer me some hel?
  5. Could anyone suggest an alternative? My RSS to CSV file below - When the CSV is downloaded I want to save a copy of the file generated in the background to my server? header('Content-type: text/csv'); header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="tweets.csv"'); $tag = urlencode($_GET['tag']); $max_pages = $_GET['maxpages']; if ($max_pages > 50) { die("No way am i doing more than 50 pages. Sorry mate."); } echo 'name,date,uri,content' . "\r\n"; for($page = 1; $page <= $max_pages; $page++) { $url = "http://search.twitter.com/search.atom?&q={$tag}&rpp=100&page={$page}"; $xmlstr = file_get_contents($url); $xml = new SimpleXMLElement($xmlstr); foreach ($xml->entry as $entry) { $twitterdate = $entry->updated; $middle = " "; $half = (int) ( (strlen($twitterdate)) ); // cast to int incase str length is odd $left = substr($twitterdate, 0, $half); $right = substr($twitterdate, $half); $unixdate = strtotime($left); $correctdate = date("d-m-Y H:i", $unixdate); echo $entry->author->name . "," . $correctdate . "," . $entry->author->uri . ",\"" . strip_tags($entry->content) . "\" \r\n"; } } ?>
  6. Here is a suggestion for you, Use the EduGeek Moodle Theme: Available here: EduMoodle You can then use some site specific css to change the Header image based on the course being used: Something like: .course-2 #header-home { background: url('EnglishTypeImage.png'); } A course with the id=2 in the url = .course-2 in css If you have multiple English courses you just need to add them to the CSS: .course-2 #header-home, .course-3 #header-home, .course-4 #header-home etc.. { background: url('EnglishTypeImage.png'); } Hows that?
  7. header('Content-type: text/csv'); header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="tweets.csv"'); $tag = urlencode($_GET['tag']); $max_pages = $_GET['maxpages']; if ($max_pages > 50) { die("No way am i doing more than 50 pages. Sorry mate."); } echo 'name,date,uri,content' . "\r\n"; for($page = 1; $page <= $max_pages; $page++) { $url = "http://search.twitter.com/search.atom?&q={$tag}&rpp=100&page={$page}"; $xmlstr = file_get_contents($url); $xml = new SimpleXMLElement($xmlstr); foreach ($xml->entry as $entry) { $twitterdate = $entry->updated; $middle = " "; $half = (int) ( (strlen($twitterdate)) ); // cast to int incase str length is odd $left = substr($twitterdate, 0, $half); $right = substr($twitterdate, $half); $unixdate = strtotime($left); $correctdate = date("d-m-Y H:i", $unixdate); echo $entry->author->name . "," . $correctdate . "," . $entry->author->uri . ",\"" . strip_tags($entry->content) . "\" \r\n"; } } This currently saves the RSS feed from the Twitter search to a .CSV file. I'd like to not only allow the file to be downloaded but also get it saved to the server. How can I generate the file and once generated post it to the server? *****Please excuse my horrible date functions!!!!!!
  8. -- Sidenote: I also generate a .csv of the search to download, anyone know how I might store this on the server once generated? A colleage did tell me the name of a function but cant for the life of me remember? Think it began with S?
  9. Superb, thats exactly what I needed.... Well almost, I got the problem wrong... I needed to Encode the # not decode Ta!
  10. Need a little help, i'm by now means literate in PHP but here goes: $tag=$_GET['tag']; if($_GET['tag']==''){ $tag = 'Search...';} if (!isset($_GET['maxpages'])) { $max_pages = 20; }else { $max_pages = $_GET['maxpages']; } if ($max_pages > 50) { die("No way am i doing more than 50 pages. Sorry mate."); } ?> I use a form to take $tag and stick it on the end of a url: http://search.twitter.com/search.atom?&q={$tag} Its basically a Twitter search script, the trouble i having is if $tag contains a #, kinda vital to a twitter search. I think whats happening is this: $tag = #edugeek - Twitter Search%23edugeek I think twitter needs to get #edugeek not %23edugeek How can I change my script so that if $tag starts with # or contains # it is correctly sent to twitter? To test I replaced %23 to # in the browser and it works, just need the script to do it now!
  11. Check Moodle.org for some more tips but I wish you the best of luck. I've never been able to get the stats to run correctly, its constantly in catch-up mode and never does catchup. I recently installed 1.9.5 on a server with 1 course and 4 users - It currently tells me that its got 10 days of stats to process and its processed 4 days. At the recent Moodle Moot at Loughborough Uni the Uni had decided to take the stats processing out of the CRON job and move it to a dedicated server just to do the stats.
  12. Yeah, you either need: Workshop: Allows peer to peer assesment of docs uploaded by students in a course or Assignement - Advanced uploading - Where students can upload files and the teacher can then download the submitted files make notes and submit back a version of the document to the pupil. But this does not allow students to view each others files.
  13. Bit of shameless self promotion, I've created another Moodle Theme: http://www.edugeek.net/forums/edugeek-moodle/35476-new-moodle-theme-junction.html Enjoy
  14. Can you get access to mysql? Via cmd?
  15. The process for making a case to governors, go see your head teacher. They type of change will depend on if Governors need to be involved.
  16. Left align login, yeah kind of agree. I'll wait for more feedback andgroup together a few changes.
  17. Another Moodle Theme for anyone who's intrested: Demo: Junction Download: link http://edumoodle.veloxserv.co.uk/moodle/file.php/1/screenshot.png Welcome feedback and opnions! Its been added to the Moodle Theme Database but still waiting approval - Link

  19. Hot potatoes is less time consuming, heres another option: http://www.edugeek.net/forums/virtual-learning-platforms/19752-moodle-word-template-create-moodle-xml-quiz.html
  20. Do you have a server caching anything on site?
  21. My GF has just bought a brand new renault clio, she had an S reg Vauxhall Corse 1.7 diesel which was on its last legs and had been offered £700 for it. Renault are doing a deal on the Clio's so shes getting a brand new clio for £6495, with her 10 year old banger plus renault are knocking money off the clio's on top of that. I think usually a brand new clio will cost you £9995 ish.... Not a bad deal really....plus he's throwing in some extras.
  22. Just for information: it's learning - springboard to knowledge : it’s learning acquires Netmedia Education
  23. I think it might be DigitalBrain?
  24. I think Uniservity is also quite cheap in comparison, I had heard of them offering it to schools very cheaply under cutting everyone.
