How can I add news articles to website and dynamically update headlines without MySQL?
Hi guys,
I update a number of website for athletes with news articles...
I'm doing it manually at the moment so I have to update:
1. news.php (with date and article title which links to the article)
2. News Article (with title, date and article text)
3. includes/latestNews.php (an include latest 3-4 article dates and headline which links to the article - displays on every page via include)
The News Article is a plain and simple PHP file which is stored in a folder 'assets/news/' and the file is named according to date i.e. a news article today would be 130420 (as in 2013 year, 04 month, 20 day) so they sit in chronological order in the 'news' folder. There is a template page file called viewArticle.php which drags in the appropriate news article by link i.e. viewArticle.php?id=130420
At the moment, I have to update news.php, latestNews.php and the individual article individually and manually.
What I would like to do is...
...create, edit and add the News Article file (130420) to the 'news' foler as I am currently doing. But, with PHP, set news.php and latestNews.php to read the files in the 'assets/news/' folder to display the latest 4 article dates and linked headlines (for latestNews.php) and display all the dates and linked headlines (for news.php).
I don't know anything about databases and can't get my head around them so I would rather do it with PHP code. Is this possible?
Thank you very much and I hope to hear from you.
SMThis seems like a follow up question to your earlier one

Have you considered setting this site up as a blog such as Wordpress?
You could then automate much of what you're attempting with a few well chosen point-and-click plugins without touching any code. -

I said earlier in this thread:
"Links hidden through the use of "display:none" helps
keyboard navigation
but are not accessible to AT. Neither to Google. And that's
why my
horizontal menu is a solution, because it addresses a
specific problem,
because it makes keyboard navigation possible while exposing
all links in
the menu. There is no perfect word. That's why there are many
solutions."
Please don't tell me you haven't even read the article and
you're not
reading my posts either because it would make this whole
thing worse! ;-)
So, the menu works the opposite of what you said actually. It
does *not*
make all links "accessible" and that's why I offer a "plan
B", not just for
keyboard users but also for *people using Internet Explorer
with scripting
disabled*.
You say your approach is to "make the top-level items in our
menu real links
to main section pages", that's fine, but once people get to
these pages,
*how do they access* the sub-menus? Unless you reveal them on
each one of
these main sections pages - as I do - they are *not*
accessible, period.
They do not exist for keyboard users nor for IE users with
JS-off. And of
course I'm talking about doing this using nested lists, not
*disconnected*
elements.

LOL
Don't tell people I need more than one rule, I'm the one who
pointed to the
fix: ttp://www.tjkdesign.com/articles/msie5mac.asp
Also, my stylesheet takes care of styling all lists
horizontaly in case
there is no JS support; and for *each* page (using different
color for each
one), to make sub-menus *accessible*. For sure that does
require more rules,
but it does make these links accessible :)
It's easy to say that a stylesheet is "lighter" if it does
not even do half
of the job. Please do not compare oranges with apples.

Actually, browsercam screenshots would *not* reveal that bug.
If you say you don't have it "anymore" then I take your word
for it and I
won't bother checking in my old Mac, but last time I checked
you had that
bug; and when I mentionned this on the WSG 10 days ago it was
there too.
> That said, I hope I've answered your interrogatories.
In your own way ;-)

News articles grouped by month and year
PHP and MySQL...
Don't know if I am going to get an answer here, but I am looking for a bit of advice on how to handle grouping of news articles into months and each then into the respective year to make it easier for the user to navigate content. I am trying to acheive this effect:
2012
- July
- June
- March
- January
2011
- December
- October
- April
2010
- November
- You get the idea I hope
I have set up MySQL to use a 'date' field called fld_articledate (formatted as YYYY-MM-DD). I need to structure my recordset query to select by year and group it, but then I also need to group by month relative to that year, but I have no idea of where to begin. So I guess my question is two-part:
How do I group by year?
How do I then group by month of that year?
Once I have my queries sorted, I assume I'd print to page with repeat and nested repeat regions!
Thanks.
MatPHP and MySQL both have a lot of built in functions for working with dates.
Here is a little code example from one of my projects that is similar to what you want to do. this example uses PDO, but the query is the same if you are using the older mysql extension. the last line builds an array of the result. You may not need this.Also note that the month and year are returned from the query using aliases (month, year); They could just as well be called "mymonth' and myyear, etc. The second to the last like formats the result for display.
$sql=$dbh->prepare("SELECT DISTINCT EXTRACT(YEAR FROM(startdate)) AS year, EXTRACT(MONTH FROM (startdate)) as month FROM courses WHERE startdate > $currentdate order by startdate");
$sql->execute();
while ($monthorder = $sql->fetch(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC)){
$month = $monthorder['month'];
$year = $monthorder['year'];
$monthtext = date('F Y', mktime(0,0,0,$month,1,$year));
$monthlist[]=array('month'=>$month, 'year'=>$year);
Since you want to link to articles, you then need a second query that will retrieve those details based on whatever month is selected. something like this:
("SELECT courses.course_id, title, startdate, enddate, highlight_photo FROM courses WHERE startdate > '$currentdate' AND EXTRACT(YEAR FROM (startdate)) = '$year' AND EXTRACT(MONTH FROM (startdate)) = '$month' ORDER BY startdate") -

I can't remove Bing. I've tried Control Panel, the article "Removing the Search Helper Extension and Bing Bar," and I have had no luck for Windows 7 and Firefox.
I wish I could share the two screen shots I took, but this question site doesn't have the option, so I guess I'll describe where Bing is showing up.
In the left hand of my browser, just to the right of the back and forward arrows, there is speech bubble with a black eye ball or something. I found out it's Bing-related by clicking on it. There is no option to remove it with either left or right clicking on it.
Also, in the right hand corner of my browser, at the very end of all my tabs, there is a white rectangular box with an orange "b" and a magnifying glass symbol. It will not respond to anything I try to do to it either, but if clicked it opens a new tab with a Bing search dialogue box.
Finally, any new tab I open automatically opens to the Bing search dialogue box (versus Google).
I need to get specific, step-by-step instructions for removing this Bing stuff from my computer. As I said, I have already gone through all steps outlined in the article I mentioned above as well as not been able to locate Bing in my control panel.
Please help. I'm certain others are having this same issue. I use Windows 7 and Firefox. Thanks.Apologies for the formatting there. No idea what went wrong...

I click on a yahoo new article, it displays for a few seconds and then I get a blank screen.
It happens only in Firefox,not explorer. When I click on a yahoo news article, it displays for a few seconds and then goes to a blank screen. I've run virus scans, eliminated all cookies, all to no avail.
== This happened ==
Not sure how often
== I'm not sureStart Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit") -
Extensions like Ghostery, WOT or AdBlock stop working after two or three times. Restarting the webpage in a new tab the extensions will work again for several times and then stop again. Has anybody an explanation or a workaround for this bug in Safari 5?
Remove the extensions, redownload Safari, reload the extensions.

And if you really want a better experience, use Firefox, tons more choices and possibilities there.
Firefox's "NoScript" will block the Trojan going around on websites. Best web security you can get.

I uploaded that new IOS 8.0 and now I cannot open my mail, Safari, or the new "TIPS" app. Does Apple have some sort of help, other than going to a store that is over 40 miles away?

I do backup with iCloud. I can't wait until the new iMac is available so that I can once again have my files in more than 1 location without needing to rely solely on the cloud.
I also rely on iTunes and my MacBook and Time Machine as well as backing up to iCloud. I know many users know have gone totally PC free, but I chose to use iCloud merely as my third backup.
I assume that the restore would result in my ability to open Pages and Numbers and fix the problem with deleting apps, but this would also mean that if my Numbers documents still exist solely within the app and are just not on iCloud for some reason that they would be gone forever. Is that right?
In a word, yes. In a little more detail.... When you restore from an iCloud backup, you must erase the device and start all over again. There is no other way to access the backup in iCloud without erasing the device. Consequently, you are starting all over again. Therefore, it would also be my assumption that Pages and Numbers will work again and that the deleting apps issues would be fixed as well.
If the documents are not in the backup, and you do not have a backup elsewhere, the documents could be gone forever. -

If Safari 5.1.7 or Leopard Security Update 2012-003 detects an out-of-date version of Flash Player on your system, you will see a dialog informing you that Flash Player has been disabled. The dialog provides the option to go directly to Adobe's website, where you can download and install an updated version of Flash Player.
Additional Information
If you need to re-enable an out-of-date version of Flash Player, you can do the following:
1. Navigate to the /Library/Internet Plug-Ins (Disabled) folder.
2. Drag "Flash Player.plugin" into /Library/Internet Plug-Ins.
3. If the browser is running, quit and restart it.

Are there any magazines with articles and tips for Encore - English language
Are there any magazines with articles and tips for Encore - English language
The very best "chronicle" on Encore that I can come up with is Jeff Bellune's Focal Easy Guide to Adobe EncoreDVD 2.0, Focal Press. It was written for EncoreDVD 2.0, but everything in it applies to CS4. Now, as of CS4, Adobe Dynamic Link to PrPro has been greatly improved and strengthened, and that part will have to come from the Help files. The book is still the best resource for 99% of Encore, and I highly recommend it. You will not be disappointed. It is an invaluable reference, whether you have EnDVD 2.0, CS3 or CS4.
As for magazine articles, Encore is mentioned in some, but I do not recall any specific to the program. Same for books on DVD/BD authoring. I have several, that use Encore for some examples, and other authoring programs for others.
The closest thing that we have to the PrPRo-Wiki, mentioned in your thread in the PrPro forum, is the wonderful set of Encore FAQ's on this forum. Jeff Bellune and Neil Wilkes have done a great job of rebuilding those, and most were lost, when the forum underwent a major changeover about 1.5 years ago.
Next, just reading this forum will help one learn how to do much in Encore, and also how to solve any problems.
One other asset that needs to be pointed out is the link in this ARTICLE to Jim Taylor's DVD FAQ. His book, DVD Demystified, by McGraw Hill, will tell you everything that you would ever want to know about DVD/BD, and his FAQ site will cover most of the important info.
Great reading in each of those. That is not an all-inclusive list, but all that I can think of for now.
Good luck,
