I don't know man. Our fascination with creepiness, obesity, plastic "fake" perfection ect...

Then again I could be just really tired.

I've decided to make something more "interesting" (in terms of code) for my personal site to show off my talents to the world but also make it so that it doesn't have adhere to a particular layout or design.

Anyhow this is the first design (breaks in IE, I'll fix that when I get to work tomorrow)

http://oopstudios.com/stuff/redesign/index.htm

The design is basic, but the coding of it gives me total freedom for my developmental stuff an experiments. It runs incredibly fast due to some javascript caching techniques and will also rank like a bitch in SEO - Booyah! It'll even replace my fancyindexing so that the site is essentially transparent!

I might be babbling, and it might not really make much sense, but it will once I translate my site over - I'm just excited is all!!

Oh you can use your own domain names for sure! It's great!

https://www.google.com/a/
http://www.google.com/support/a/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=33352

Basically this is the steps to take:

sign up
set some MX records
verify your domain (upload a file)

et viola! Email and all the other google apps things at your clients fingertips - you neednt worry about spam or anything cause it's maintained. Lovely.

Not really sure what the issue is exactly, but if you want good email service, why not use GMail? All of my clients use GMail on their domains which leaves me to code and design and they get a top quality service!

I'm about to loose a client as well precisely because of that.

Ahh right! Now I gets ya!

I'll do this by example, and you can fill in the gas on your own...

Code:

// A list of options
$options = array (
"value1" => "This is the first option",
"value2" => "This is the second option",
"value3" => "This is the third option"
);

// Your list of selected options
$selected = array ("value1", "value2");

// Now build the HTML
$html = "";
foreach ($options as $k => $v) {
if (in_array ($k, $selected)) {
$html .= "<option value=\"{$k}\" selected=\"selected\">{$v} (selected)</option>";
} else {
$html .= "<option value=\"{$k}\">{$v}</option>";
}
}

// Output the thingthang
echo "<select multiple=\"multiple\" name=\"selection\">{$html}</select>";

Something like that should to the trick!

untested

I'm not sure what you mean by "putting back into your select" but I need to warn you about your inserts!

You really need to sanitise your data, this won't cut a simple sQL injection attack:

$speciality = implode(" , ",$_POST["speciality"]);

Ideally you need to run mysql_real_escape_string on every value of your posted data. You might find array_map is useful for this!

Didn't include all the code, but the are cleaned and prepped. What I was asking is how to highlight the selections already in the DB. But on second thought, maybe a little over-the-top.

We use Rackspace here at the office for all our clients. Dont get me wrong, I like E2, Rodney has always responded quickly. However, this issue just cant seem to be resolved. I've already lost one possible client cause of this email mess.
