Rather than starting a new post, I found this one and thought I'd ask it here. I haven't used MySQL Administrator in a while so I have forgotten the password. Since I am starting over with a database, I made a new one and added a user (for which I know the password) and gave it all privileges. However, when starting the MySQL Administrator, I type in the username cpanelname_username and the password (both I know are correct) but I get this error: MySQL Error Number: 1045 Access Denied to User: 'cpanelname_username@<stuff> us.da.qwest.net' (Using Password: YES) Now, the Server Host is correct and the port is 3306 (don't know if that makes a difference...). I had this working months ago and encountered a problem like this but cannot remember how I fixed it. BTW, I also created a new user and tried it there, but got the same error.

That does help Thanks David! Surefire - I did buy a book that covers the basics of MySQL which helped some but didn't broach the subject of a One-to-Many relationship well. I am planning on making a trip to the bookstore to find something that is more advanced... Thanks for the link, I'm downloading it and will give it a try

Hey all, For my site I want to build two databases, one for movies (which will contain info like release date, MPAA rating, Box Office Gross, etc) and the other for actors. Now, I have enough knowledge to create the DB and tables but I don't know how to relate them. What I want to do is have a column in the movies db where it'll list the actors who were in that movie. The examples I've seen online dealing with a foreign key don't explain how to use more than one. For instance, if I have Batman Begins, I want it to relate to the actor db of Christian Bale, Liam Neeson, Katie Holmes, Gary Oldman, Morgan Freeman, Michael Caine. How do I do this? I've tried googling some tutorials but haven't come up with anything that has helped. Are there any sites you can suggest? This is probably not as hard as I'm making it out to be, but I want to be sure I'm getting it right before I get in too deep...

It worked! Excellent! Thanks wttl

OK, so I put a file on my jump drive and tried opening it with IE on another computer, and it did not open. This one also has the SP2. I then tried it on my laptop (which as far as I know has not been updated with the service pack) and this time it did open the file. Again, this isn't a huge deal and I guess I can get ued to using Firefox, but now I'm just curious as to WHY this is happening,

The thing is, I never had a problem opening the php files before... And yes, it will open with Firefox so it is an issue with IE. I wouldn't mind using Firefox, but it looks too different (for instance, the left sidebar border normally shows up -- the php code is inside and I realize that can't be visible -- but in FF, there's nothing there...) I run Norton's firewall, therefore the Windows FW is not on so that's not the issue. Just for kicks, I turned off Norton's FW and AntiSpam software and still no dice...

Hello, I wasn't sure where to place this... The problem is, in my folder where I store all of my web pages, I normally can right click a php file and choose Internet Explorer, and it would open. Now, there's a slight flicker like something was trying to open but is stopped and then nothing happens. It seems this is only a problem with the php files as any htm or html files (as well as graphical ones) open fine. I have tried chancing the settings via the Control Panel and have all php files open with IE, but it just does the same thing... This isn't a huge deal, but it is annoying as I like to see what the page will look like in IE before publishing it. Now, I do believe it is a problem with IE as the files will open in Firefox. This is a problem that has started recently (the only change that I can think of is SP2 was just installed). Does anyone have any suggestions? I tired doing a google search on this but the only items concerned right-clicking an item while online... Thanks in advance Brian PS: I can open IE regularly and it works fine, it just will not open php files on my computer...

Ok, thanks Bruce! I was just curious...

Well, I don't know what the probem was but it works now. However, I checked my server status again and now it's up to 84%... Can anyone tell me what that means?

Thanks Lisa and Don. I went ahead and did that.

Today I was trying to upload some photos and pages for my latest site update and noticed that it was extremely slow (most of the time the server would time out). So I logged into my account and saw the the "Disk hda5 (/usr)" in the Server Status was at 83%, does this have anything to do with it? This is the first time I've ever seen this that high (though I admit I don't check it that often). Why is it doing this? I'm not uploading any more than I usually... Brian

Thanks Lisa! I'll just use my e-mail address for now. Rock Sign

Hi, I noticed that my FormMail somehow has been "disabled". How do I enable it or how did this happen in the first place? The form was working fine a couple of weeks ago when I checked but now I get this message: FormMail-Clone The system administrator has disabled this script. Any suggestions? BTW, here's the address for my form: http://www.moviemansguide.com/special_feat...ontact_info.php Thanks, Brian

Don't know if this is in the right place, but here it goes: I recently changed templates for my phpBB message board and noticed that on the login page, the text is white on top of the white text box. The background of this message board is black and but on the administrative page the text boxes are black and the text that is typed in is white (as I had specified it). Is there another setting that I can change to make the text box background on the log in page?

Well, I've added the includes and they all work. I've added ones on the left side (the menu), the header (where the logo is) and the HEAD section. I may later also add one to the bottom of the page replacing the javascript one (where I have the copyright info). Thanks all for your help, I appreciate it! Brian Movieman's Guide to the Movies

I prefer Photoshop but didn't really have to pay anything for it since it came with a new scanner I recently bought.

Yeah, I thought about that. Once I find the time, I will place the includes because in the future I may want to add a javascript feature or something. It would've been nice if I had planned this all out before when I converted all my files to HTML (I used to be with Homestead which adds tons of other code). I've got a question. I have a friend who has Dreamweaver and I may just put my site on a jump drive, use his computer to make the changes. Is it easy and does Dreamweaver add any extra code? Another question in regards to includes: I have a site meter on every page, if I were to make another include, would the site meter still work properly? (I'm sure it will still count, but I also want it to show me the entry pages, etc).

I just got through updating my entire site, so I think I'll take a break from it for now. I've gotten the menu basically the way I like it but once I get some time, I may do that. . . Thumbs Up Thanks! Brian

Actually, I am using PHP includes for my menu but to have a rollover, I have to place code in the HEAD section. The includes I have reside in the BODY. All in all, it doesn't really matter. I have different options I can use. Thanks for your help, both of you. Brian

I was wondering if I can place a mouseover effect code within my style sheet. I have just coverted all my pages to PHP and am currently working on my new menu. I'd like to have an image next to the link that will highlight when the user places their mouse pointer over it but the codes I have looked at thus far need you to place part of the code in the <HEAD> section which would mean I'd have to place it in 300+ pages! Is it possible? It's no big deal but I think it'd be a good looking feature. Thanks, Brian aka The Movieman

Thanks, that seems to work fine. I still want to know if there's a way that I can still have a login page for NeoMail but this'll do.

I want to add e-mail accounts for reviewers on my site but I was wondering how to give them access to the NeoMail without going through cpanel. I did a search on NeoMail and came across a couple of sites that have a login page but when I tried it with my address, the username and password for cpanel popped up. I assume this is a permissions issue so what exactly do I need to change in order to make that page accessible?

Hi, I was wondering how to do this: 4. CHMOD permission on the data folder to 777. 5. CHMOD permission on the files inside the data folder to 666. Currently I use SmartFTP but I couldn't find where to make these changes. Can I use cpanel? EDIT: Nevermind. I found where.

Thanks, Bruce. btw, I think that's the equivalent of a dumb question, lol. I don't know why I didn't even do that in the first place. . .

How do I correct this? When I view my site with IE, it looks fine but when I look at it in Netscape (or other like browsers) it shows a gray border. Here's a link to look at: http://www.moviemansguide.com/home.html Here's the link to my external style sheet: http://www.moviemansguide.com/style.css Am I using css coding that's just not supported by Netscape and if so, what correction(s) can I make? Thanks, Brian
