I've been reading through my old php book (PHP 4.1) and came across this data validation class.
It can check a number of things ranging from telephone numbers , credit card number formats, email
address and some others. I checked out some of the methods although I didnt expect it to work 100%
because I've found source code errors thoughout the book and CD. I tested out a few of the
methods to check and some of them did return expected results but some didnt either so the data
validation class was not perfect and it didnt really bother me. The cool thing I found...

I've got a bunch of arrays that i want to use for more then 1 function. when i declear the
arrays outside a function i cant use it in a function. This code was originally written in
javascript by another person but since I plan to use it and extend it with php I had to change it

'var' gives it global access. Any ideas on how I can go about declearing 1 set of these
arrays t...

Okay, after a week, I have successfully created a personal web blog. I first created it using a flat
text file, I but realized that it was just too limited like that. So, I redid it in a
database-compatible manner. NOTES: CODE - This blog does not support comments yet. If you
want, you can build  on this script by creating a comment system as well. I may also    update it
with a comment system in the future. - You should have an average to intermediate knowledge of
MySQL    commands and database manipulation in general, especially if you    want to add a ...

I've been experimenting a little with PHP's image functions and I was trying to see if I
could make something that looked 3D, so I started with a cube because it's simple. To make an
isometric picture of a cube, you need to start with a regular hexagon. However, making a regular
hexagon isn't the easiest thing. Is there a function to create a regular polygon, or specify an
angle and magnitude for a vector?...

stuff like meta tags, googlebot/spider info), footer.php (the footer/copyright thing), leftnav.php
(includes the navigation bar). I also like the titles of my pages to be as descriptive as possible
so I try to include the path of a page (how the user got to that page: "Excite Y...
