Thanks! Don't know how I missed that!

On Newegg there are 3 different versions of the Crucial M4 256 GB drive. They all have 5 star reviews (number of review in parens): (145) CT256M4SSD2 (3) CT256M4SSD2BAA (42) CT256M4SSD2CCA Are these just differences in the firmware versions? Does anyone know the differences between...

anyone?

Seems like a pretty solid gaming laptop, but it's not too huge (15.6" screen). Here are the highlights: Intel Core 2 Duo P8700(2.53GHz) 15.6" screen GTX 260M 4Gb RAM320Gb hard drive 1920 x 1080 Resolution (the $1000 model has 1368 x 768 res) 7.26 lbs. Does anyone know if I would be...

Well that is what I'm asking... I was able to compile it the first time. That is whats running right now. But when I compile/install again, it doesn't overwrite the current one. Any ideas how to overwrite the current installation of PHP?

Oh one more thing... most of those ./configure options came from my webserver php configuration. I figured I would just take them from there, since GD works great there.

Hey friends. Background (Don't read this if you don't want to): So I've been fighting with getting AMP on my Mac for a few days now. The default install of the OS comes with Apache 2.2.9 and PHP 5.2.6, but no MySQL... To make matters worse, I've heard that PHP is installed in a funky way...

BTW, thanks to Crusty and awal!

Hi Snapster, That is the problem. I already have an sql dump which has insert statements in it. Like awal said, I can "inject" those "now()" statements into the end of the insert as a solution.

Well the real thing I'm trying to do is to keep track of each time I import the given dataset. So in the end, I would be able to see on which day a given record was imported. Maybe I could use a temp table or something? Import the data into the table, then after the import, copy the rows over...

I have an sql data dump, that I want to import into a table. The table is exactly the same, except that I added a timestamp column. I want to be able to capture when I import these records (really just the day). I'm using MySQL and the data dump is in the format of... INSERT INTO `table`...

Hi guys, I have a new Macbook, the one with the Mini DisplayPort, and I want to watch videos on my HD TV. The display port adapters that are available convert to either VGA, or DVI. My TV has everything but DVI. So I can either go directly to VGA, or get the DVI converter and then convert...

I might buy a new laptop, and if I do, I will probably dual boot with Fedora, or some other Linux distro, for the purpose of expanding my computing knowledge (and programming knowledge). Is there anything I should know about hardware support/drivers/compatibility when shopping around? In...

It looks like the answer is just that the markup wont "validate" in a Validator... Other than that, using custom attributes is just frowned upon (since it wont validate), but it also seems to be a widely accepted practice. Any other opinions on the matter?

Hi everyone, I'm trying to find out if its "legal" to add my own custom attributes to xhtml elements, mainly form elements. So can I do this: <input type="text" id="test" value="" required="yes" /> Note that the required field is not a standrad field. I found this page...
