Assuming you have a very basic form already set up, using a submit button will allow you to call a php script:
<form method=”post” action=”contact.php”>
<input name=”email” type=”text”>
<textarea name=”message” rows=”15″ cols=”40″></textarea>
<input type=”submit”>
</form>

There are plenty of well documented methods to calculate the difference between two dates. However its not so easy when you don’t have a date type, but a string which represents a date. You could turn the string into a date, then do some math and come up with a difference but thats long winded!

That sounds like a complicated task in itself, without even considering how unhelpful MS Excel can be…. What exactly am I trying to achieve?! How frequently does this need occur?
I work with massive spreadhseets. Sure I should probably use a specific database application, but seeing as Access sucks balls and everybody in my company literally […]

So a small project recently saw me create (or more accurately complete) a web page to be shown on a large screen tv at work - the idea being the page would track daily install figures and show remaining targets etc.
The problem was the system took numbers from a static file, which was updated daily. […]

Ok, so I upgraded the site to the next milestone 2.5 and we’ll see how that works out. I’m not really all that taken with the new dashboard but I fear change so i guess we’ll work that out.

Its been a while since I geeked up. I’ve been working the equivelent of one and a half full time jobs, and accidently bought a playstation 3 so geekness (unless it involves burnout chains 8 long) has taken the back seat (see I’m so enraptured by Burnout Paradise on our 46″ HD screen that I’m […]

So I’ve written another wordpress plugin. Well, when i say “written” i really mean compiled, because this one is based on the rather excellent Iconize project created by Alexander Kaiser.
IconizeWP is a simple wordpress plugin that attempts to intergrate Alexander Kaiser’s excellent Iconize project with any Wordpress blog. Simply activate the plugin and all […]
