@Undo ... hmm?

The reviews?

That's been there for a week+. :P

Seth

Anyone have an idea why this is happening?

I wanted to center edit cards, but for some reason it centered the inputs too.

  <div id="inputFields"><span class="ion-chevron-right 3"></span> <h4 class="header">edit cards</h4><br>
      <div id="inputs">
          <form id="form-inputs">
              <br>Question: <input class="input" type="text"> Answer: <input class="input" type="text">
              <br>Question: <input class="input" type="text"> Answer: <input class="input" type="text">
              <br>Question: <input class="input" type="text"> Answer: <input class="input" type="text">
          </form>
      </div>

#inputFields {
    display: -webkit-box;
    -webkit-box-pack: center;
    -webkit-box-align: start;
}

I've tried playing around with it, but I'm lost now.

hichris123

@Seth Try this: <h4 class="header middle">edit cards</h4><br>, and:

.middle {
    display: -webkit-box;
    -webkit-box-pack: center;
    -webkit-box-align: start;
}

Seth

hang on, brb

@hichris What method would you use for PDO? http://www.php.net/pdo.prepared-statements

@Seth lol

hichris123

12:09 AM

@AnnonomusPerson What do you mean by method?

Annonomus Person

@hichris123 I mean like inline vs. using a ? vs. bindparam, etc.

hichris123

@AnnonomusPerson ? for sure. That's called a prepared statement, which is the heart of protecting against SQL injection.

Annonomus Person

Okay... that's what I though.

Seth

@hichris123 That didn't work at all, nothing is centered :(

Annonomus Person

Gets annoyed with animated GIF....

hichris123

12:12 AM

@Seth :(

creates JS fiddle

@Seth jsfiddle.net/AncS2

Seth

hmm. that's text align. Might work.

nope.

hichris123

Aww, really? :(

Seth

well sorta actually

@hichris123 jsfiddle.net/AncS2/1 it's better, but not quite what I wanted.

Undo

@hichris123 lol. I saw votes and promptly freaked out and pinged Shog :P

Annonomus Person

Might have to settle for either three spans that contain everything or just use a table @Seth.

hichris123

12:23 AM

@Undo ... hmm?

Annonomus Person

Tables aren't as bad as some people say: just don't use them for you main navigation of your site AND the navigation bar AND the sidebar...

Undo

There's a Votes table public SEDE :P

Annonomus Person

@Undo SEDE = Data explorer?

hichris123

@Undo Hasn't that always been there?

Undo

oh, and @hichris123 you as a normal user now get to find out which mods activated/deactivated which off-topic close reasons :P

@AnnonomusPerson yeah

hichris123

12:24 AM

@Undo Mostly Shog.

Annonomus Person

@Undo Ahh...

Annonomus Person

1:21 AM

PDO isn't working :(

Undo

error?

Annonomus Person

No just not working.

$connection=new PDO("mysql:host=localhost;dbname=db", "admin", "battery_staple");
$user=$_POST["username"];
$pass=$_POST["password"];
$user_query=$connection->prepare("SELECT * FROM login WHERE email = ?");
$user_query->execute(array($user));
if ($user_query->rowCount==0) {
    echo("HI!");
}

The credentials are right...

thx

Undo

@AnnonomusPerson What's your db name?

hichris123

@AnnonomusPerson ... you just let out your credentials. Delete that message now.

Annonomus Person

I changed it for here.... but it's right in my code.

@hichris123 I changed them

And those would be the worst credentials ever :P

hichris123

1:25 AM

Ah, okay. :P

Annonomus Person

And I'm not that dumb to use a xkcd password that's probably the 26th most used password :D

correcthorsebatterystaple.net <-Lol

@hichris does that code look like it has any issues?

It's not pulling out any values from the db... do you think it's one of those "start on 0" things like used with arrays?

hichris123

@AnnonomusPerson Shouldn't it be if ($user_query->rowCount > 0) {?

Annonomus Person

@hichris123 It's just a snippet of my code. There's a part lower down that deals with that } elseif ($user_query->rowCount==1) {

There's a valid entry in my db, but it always calls the one for username not found.

hichris123

Ah, hmm... dunno.

@Undo Hello, I'm back exactly 24 hours later

Undo

Hi!

Awal Garg

@Undo I have got into the TL with the daring button click

Ok here is the proof- It lets me go in and says - You have requested access to this room; please be patient while the room owners process your request.

Undo

3:00 PM

@AwalGarg Nope. You just requested access.

@AwalGarg what's it say now?

Awal Garg

Holy shit, you are already in, right

?

And you disaccepted it, right?

Undo

Right

Awal Garg

You played a game

Undo

You have to get in and see what we're saying without someone granting you access :P

Awal Garg

this isn't a good thing

I did earlier thought that you must already be in

damn shit

But, no confirms

Ok, I did the evil thing again

Is there a limit to number of requests

?

Undo

3:03 PM

Don't use that button :P

it won't work, trust me.

Awal Garg

Ofcourse, there is a guy whose username is Undo and he would always make me fail

hichris123

@Undo :(

Undo

Use your time to poke at the chat API, not press a button which never works :P

Awal Garg

Pressing the evil button is far easier

So, whats the criteria to get in?

Undo

Need diamond.

hichris123

3:05 PM

@Undo I'm PDO'ifying Charcoal. We'll see what I bork. :P

Undo

Or find a back door and get in that way.

@hichris123 good luck :D

Awal Garg

You don't have a diamond, do you?

Undo

yeah

Awal Garg

The one that is in front of your username

yeah, you have i

3:07 PM

@Undo I'm pretty sure I'm going to bork something. Because at least twice I've left out a ; or spelled flags as flag. :P

Undo

hehe

Awal Garg

Ok, I have a deal for you, I will upvote any one question or answer of yours and you let me in

hichris123

rofl

Undo

Uhmmm....

Awal Garg

Or give me your diamond

Undo

3:08 PM

errrr...

It... doesn't work that way.

hichris123

Or give me your diamond!

Awal Garg

You are not aware of my powers, I warn you

I am omnipowerful

Undo

... uhhh...

okay...

Awal Garg

3:31 PM

I am back and I would leave now, cos I got to do some work. I know all my fans would miss me, but, I promise I will come back. And you know, I never, EVER break promises. And when I say something, I mean it. OK

Undo

;)

Awal Garg

Well, I forgot to say, no need of claps

hichris123

^ My local diff right now.

Undo

@hichris123 what UI is that?

hichris123

@Undo GitHub for Windows.

Undo

3:35 PM

ah

hichris123

Oh, @Undo after I finish all of this I'm going to switch stuff over to the Bootstrap CDN.

Undo

yay!

hichris123

... this is going to be a huge commit.

Undo

hehe

hichris123

And posts.php has basically all of the index.php code.

Can I remove that?

Undo

3:36 PM

if it doesn't break anything, sure

hichris123

Or just keep it in?

Undo

You have a way of testing locally, right?

hichris123

@Undo Once I set it up. Oh right, you did give me the backup... give me a sec.

Awal Garg

Ok, now I am serious. I have something to add

Recently (like a minute ago) I was on The Ink Spot

And I got the idea of echos in chat rooms

Any user says something and a script echoes it back

like this> Echo: Any user says something and a script echoes it back

hichris123

50.7% done @Undo.

@AwalGarg Hmm, what would you use it for?

Awal Garg

3:49 PM

@hichris123 Annoying people for half an hour

Mildly

So, is anyone taking this on?

hichris123

4:03 PM

@Undo around?

Undo

yeah

hichris123

What version of PHP do you use on EC2?

Undo

looks

$ php --version
PHP 5.4.9-4ubuntu2.4 (cli) (built: Dec 12 2013 04:29:20)
Copyright (c) 1997-2012 The PHP Group
Zend Engine v2.4.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2012 Zend Technologies

(this is on the Charcoal server)

hichris123

That makes a lot of sense.

How'd you install it?

Undo

can't remember

IIRC it wasn't very fun

hichris123

4:10 PM

I'm getting syntax errors since I'm only on 5.3. :(

Undo

what OS?

hichris123

Ubuntu.

          protected $info = [];

^ That line.

I fed it into a syntax checker, too. Turns out it only happens on 5.3 and below.

Q: How do I install latest PHP in supported Ubuntu versions (like 5.4.x in Ubuntu 12.04)?

I am trying to update to php 5.4 in Ubuntu 12.04, and I can only get 5.3.6 using official repositories (using apt-get). I'm not really sure how to do a manual update – I'm sorta new to ubuntu, but I need to play around with the new php features!

ppa php

you need a ppa :(

hichris123

Hmm, @Undo would you mind me committing, pulling to dev and probably borking a few things?

Undo

go for it

hichris123

4:14 PM

After I finish a few things up. :P

hichris123

5:05 PM

@Undo around? Can you play with dev and see if I borked anything else & I didn't fix it?

Undo

not atm

hichris123

k, whenever.

Undo

7:01 PM

@hichris123 ^ The weirdest thing I've seen as a mod so far :P

hichris123

> This question appears to be off topic because trees.

^ That would have been better @Undo.

Undo

hehe

I want to maintain some resemblance of professionality, though :P

(also, how did that live half an hour without getting one close vote?)

stares at flag queue in despair

hichris123

@Undo Weird.

Undo

7:18 PM

sigh Yet another weird chatflag.

Q: How can I align a div at the edge of a div above it when said div is using automatic positioning?

I have a <div>: <div id="placeHolder" class="card"><h1> A title!</h1><p>Some text!</p> </div> and a second <div> containing some text and a <form>: <div id="inputFields"><h4 class="header middle">edit</h4> <div id="inputs"> <form id="form-inputs"><br> La...

html css

(it probably also stems from my lack of CSS knowledge)

@Undo I'm missing all of those :(

Speaking of that, the game dev room is just weird.

I'm not sure whether it's worse than the bridge or not...
