Originally posted by Randy53215Most of those issues are already known and fixed long ago, just not in the distribution. All of the times I found exploits I warned this board's staff (mainly Acmlm and Jesper) about it and it got fixed here right away, which is what also happened with most other people as far as I know. Still, the distributed version is not fixed, which is a bad thing. And I agree with windwaker somewhat, why did you post this thread anyway? It's not like the immature asshat that did this is going to unravel himself. And it's not like posting idle threats in this thread is going to scare anyone else of either. It's been a few days ago since this happened now, and you still don't know who did this, apperantly. |

An RSS feed is basically a dynamic XML file, which updates whenever the 'real' forum/thread page updates. The advantage of XML is that its data structure is so simple, so it can be used to easily exchange data between programs and/or websites. To use an RSS feed, there are programs called 'FeedReaders' from which you can link to RSS files such as the ones for Forums and Threads on this board. The FeedReader will display all the items (in this case, items will be threads when you use a forum's RSS feed, and posts when you use a thread's RSS feed) in the RSS feed, and alert you whenever there's a new item. So, in short and to keep things simple. By using RSS feeds in a FeedReader, you'll be alerted whenever there's a new post/thread in the RSS feed you're linking to. It's a great and quick way of notification and to keep track of the websites you link. Unfortunately not that many websites offer it. |

Well, image says more than a thousand words, so: It happens every time I have MSN or Outlook Express running for a while, it keeps generating more and more processes. What's causing this and how can I stop this? :/ |

I think most of you aren't getting the point of this. If you want to keep track of the whole board, you use your browser for it, as always and normally. If you want to keep track of especially a specific forum or thread, RSS comes in handy. What's the point of having RSS display the entire forum's information or new posts or something? |

If you have a form, use <input type="hidden" name="name_of_data" value="value_of_data" /> to process 'preset' data. Basically, it's like a text input type, but one that already has data/a value and the user can't change it Of yeah, and using cookies is a quick and dirty solution for this, but we DON'T WANT INSECURE SCRIPTS, RIGHT?! On a side note, it is suspicious that you don't know about this while you programmed your own forum, which has various forms using the hidden input type. *rolls eyes* (edited by Narf on 03-19-05 04:51 PM) |

I'm not saying hidden input types are completely secure, but they are at least more secure than cookies. All one has to do to edit cookie files are edit one simple text file which is right on their computer, while a hidden input is harder to manipulate. | |||

Oh em ef gee, I wonder why knuck is used as an example. Maybe because knuck has always been one of the biggest pains in the ass on this board member-wise? And the more I agree with Gavin because of that, some people shouldn't even be allowed to see the board anymore. | |||

What MySQL query are you using to update the field which determines a user has it turned on/off? Most likely you're forgetting to include a 'WHERE clause' in the query. IE UPDATE users SET iwantcomments=1 sets 'iwantcomments' to 1 for everyone UPDATE users SET iwantcomments=1 WHERE i$id sets 'iwantcomments' to 1 just for the user which has ID $id. |

Every normal board has a password retreival function, why doesn't this one have one?! And yes, I took think it's more of your own responcibility to keep a hold of your passwords; but let's face it, people are stupid and do forget them. |

The superglobal matter is understandable. Though whining about HTML: get over it. Not everyone likes having to write < < < < < instead of < Myself included because I work with huge files instead of a ton of different files. Not to forget, it's a distributed forum package distributeed as a whole. Theoretically, you're not even supposed to mess around with the source code. And if you do, it's your own risk. I got my own distributed forum package. I made it extra easy to install/manage and it's got just the ammount of features and functions that you don't even need to go into FTP anymore to make changes to it. For all those "omg look at me im a 1337 PHP progremmer!11" fanatics that want to make changes to it, that's not for my concern. |

Originally posted by AlaricWith that, I agree. The board's HTML code is a horrid mess, whether it's put on one line or not. |

So your files become a bit bigger... So what? I've always said the same before I started working with valid HTML, and guess what! My files indeed got a lot bigger (sometimes twice as big) but they became a lot easier to work with, and it looked easier on my eyes for some reason. Especially with a common table structure: < < < < < That looks a hell of a lot better than < in a huge file, let alone when it's parsed through PHP so you'll escape quotation marks with a backslash in a lot of cases. So yeah, 'it works' in most major browsers (and no offense, but who are YOU to define what browsers are 'major'?, but there are hundreds of browsers out there. Okay, the majority of people use Internet Explorer and Mozilla, but there's more beyond the horizon than just those. Ever tried looking at Acmlm's board in a very strict text based browser? Not only AcmlmBoard is written in extremely messy HTML, but it lacks a lot of stuff that's definately important, to name a few: alt attibutes for the < (edited by Narf on 07-21-05 03:25 PM) |

I think working with ID numbers would be better and easier for you right now. However, if you get more experienced with queries, in particular using 'LIKE' in SQL queries, give it a go with names. There are tons of ways to do what you want to do, try out a few of them, should do your MySQL learning some good. |

W3schools, tutorials and samples you can edit online and emediately test out. Not only for Javascript but for a whole bunch of programming and markup languages. (edited by Narf on 07-31-05 11:26 AM) |

Well, I'm not sure about that, but I do know that you can use RSS syndication with Javascript on a webpage, so you're basically leeching XML data from another webpage. I've used it before, read more about it at this page. | |||

Apostrophes next to the opening and closing arrows of a tag are never necesary, where did you learn to do that anyway? Makes no sense... Unless we're talking about the apostrophes in the CSS code (ie. url('bla/bla.file');) |
