xerophobia When inserting user inputs in a SQL table, always use PHP function mysql_real_escape_string($userInput) It adds backslashes to dangerous characters. You may read more about it here:

TheSource @TheSource (8) • United States 22 Apr 07

xerophobia Unfortunately, I haven't played the first opus, but even if I can't compare both games, I still have to agree with you guys, the second one was kind of disappointing. As you said, the storyline was poor, but also the whole... atmosphere was just... weird or...

xerophobia You'll obviously have to use the mail() PHP function. Have a look at it here: http://ca.php.net/manual/en/ref.mail.php You must be aware that not all free-hosting services allow you to use that function though.

Did anyone watch The Pursuit of Happyness?

Lunnazol @Lunnazol (296) • United States 18 Dec 06

xerophobia A very good movie indeed. Will Smith really deserves the comments and awards he received for his role. He's awesome in this movie! The story is not that original in itself, but the way it's told is very cute and kiss curl.

xerophobia The hardest thing is this whole process is to actually insure yourself that your website is safe. People at Orkut.com use advanced PHP and CGI (mainly) algorithms. I'd suggest you to first learn basic PHP at least (considering you already know HTML and CSS)...

xerophobia It really depends on what I need to do that day. If I need, let's say, to search something for school, I'd say I can stay up to 3 hours. Some other days, I may only stay 30mins or even not go on the internet. Also, on days I'm building my website, I'm beating...

Stressed? Let's play!

XeL1045 @XeL1045 (14) • Canada 22 Apr 07

I've found this website, http://www.ferryhalim.com/orisinal/, that offers nice games. Those games are very beautiful and have relaxing music. I think it's a very good way to release your stress and become less tense.

xerophobia I've visited that site, I like it! You were more than right when you said the games there are nice. So original! I like the one where you have to hit crabs with a yo-yo. Stupid, but amusing... :)

300 Graphics

symonds @symonds (3) • Canada 20 Apr 07

The Movie 300 had very good Fight Scenes. This was one of the best fight movies so far due to the cinematography and graphics. One thing I do not understand is why they thought it was smart to fight in iron underwear. haha

300 graphics

5 responses

xerophobia Well, the keyword, actually, is "Graphics" as you said. Yes, iron may be resistant, but it's kinda heavy. So I guess iron was a good choice to have a greater visual render for the movie.
