alternative to phpList (or, what enews software?) Mar 19, 08, 7:44 a.m.

So, I've been using phplist on a project for about 2 years, but the past 6 months or so it's been just butt slow and the stat gathering is basically worthless. Anyone have any alternatives? Doesn't matter if it costs money, but it has to be our own solution and not a hosted one like Campaign Monitor or such. Ideas?

CS3 PC -> Mac Jan 13, 08, 9:02 a.m.

Anyone know if it's possible to have Adobe let someone "trade in" their PC version of CS3 for a Mac version? I thought I remember seeing that somewhere but can't seem to find an answer...

onMetaData within class Dec 27, 07, 2:09 p.m.

so, I've used the ns['onMetaData'] function on the timeline to get the duration and such, but how would it be used in a class? (does that even make sense?)

ddr2 speed Dec 11, 07, 9:39 a.m.

so, I've always just went for the deals with regards to computer parts, but I'm wondering if there's a huge benefit to getting ram that matches your mobo and cpu's bus speed? My mobo supports a 800/1066 FSB and my Q6600 has a FSB of 1066, but my ram currently is cheapo 667 stuff. Would it benefit me greatly to get 1066/ddr2 8500 ram, or is it not much of a diff (in more real world stuff, not gaming)?

fast HD Sep 11, 07, 11:17 a.m.

so, I just booted up my laptop with my external raptor drive instead of the internal one, and holy crap, it almost tripled its speed in starting apps and opening shit. holy crap. never realized what the diff would have been.

mysql updating best practices Aug 21, 07, 12:17 p.m.

would it be ok to have a mysql UPDATE statement within a loop, or is there another way to update multiple rows in sequential order?

fwa poll, hmmm... Aug 14, 07, 10:54 a.m.

interesting, considering FI is the company who submitted the question, and they're also the one who has been perpetually hiring for say, 3 years. probably still doesn't get it me thinks.

flash number cut off Mar 23, 07, 9:53 a.m.

so, say i'm getting the sum of some numbers in flash, if the last digit (say, a currency) is a 0, it doesn't show the 0 and is blank ($15.50 would show $15.5)
Any way to make it show the full string?

mysql Q Mar 23, 07, 5 a.m.

so, say i have a table that has a bunch of entries each with a unique ID (not a sequential id or anything, just an assigned one). what i want is to figure out what the largest entry ID is so when a new entry is made via php, it just assigns the new entry and ID that is +1 to the current largest entry

i couldn't really figure out how to phrase it for google, so i thought i'd try you folks

Shared.object problem Feb 22, 07, 10:13 a.m.

any reason why a Shared.object would work just fine using mamp/wamp and not once it's on the live server? i can't seem to write to it once it's created, but it's able to be created if it's not there.

phpmyadmin Feb 15, 07, 1:06 p.m.

anyone have a way to search for duplicate fields in other rows? i don't know all of the duplicate entries and instead of going through one by one, is there an easier way to say something like if 2 entries have phone numbers that match or addresses or something, delete 1?

mysql help Jan 3, 07, 8:21 a.m.

i googled around but can't seem to find anything on it. how would you select items from mysql that might fit multiple criteria?

ie :
SELECT * FROM mytable WHERE Section='somesection' or Section='someother' AND Posted='2006-01-01 01:01:01' order by Posted DESC

the above doesn't seem to work. it pulls the whole database unless i take out the or Section='someother'

runtime sharing Q Dec 21, 06, 11:28 a.m.

is it possible to dynamically set a shared library item? ie : there are 5 items in the library that are imported for runtime sharing. what if, based on a variable passed into the main swf, only 1 of these is needed. can it only set 1 to pull in that shared data, since otherwise you'd end up having to preload 5 times as much data?
