Awesome as always, and would look even better with the background in grey or like your current sig. 35416[/snapback] Yep, the sepia effect would look good on that one...

Erm.... Because you're actually querying a computer and not a human being?? Jesus Wept Rob, a database can only return data on a specific query that has to follow logic. What's not simple about that code?? Do you class foreign languages 'nerdy' as well?? Try saying "I want Newcastle United league position" to a Mongolian goat herder, I'm sure you'd get a similar blank response...
-
Errr.... you can! SELECT * FROM table_premiership WHERE table_premiership.team_name = 'Newcastle United'; Is about as normal English as you're gonna get in database syntax. You want a difficult database language, have a crack at UML or PROGRESS.... you'll soon find SQL a doddle...

I remember first chatting to ShearerM4 (as he was known then) on soccergaming.tv. Legend even then. 34575[/snapback] ah good old SG! still post pretty often over there ... but it's starting to feel like it's full of kids ... or maybe i'm getting old for it now 34623[/snapback] I stopped posting because I felt like I was constantly getting into arguements with a bunch of 11 year old wankers who've had all the vowels knicked off their keyboard. 34642[/snapback] You should respect your elders you know Skol!

I love Access me! 34330[/snapback] What are you, a fecking hom?? Access smells of the rankest shit!!! Hate it with a passion, it's not a database, it's an application with a small, unstable database built in.... SQL Database is king!
-
Only real solution is to create a database.... And anything this has more than 65,536 records really should be a database and not a spreadsheet. From the info you've given I'd knock it up in SQL Server but if you don't have that or you've never used it before, an Access DB will the job OK (although personally I can't stand MS Access!)

What do you think I am....? Evil?? "Charlotte..........?"

A quick spray of water up their arse from 20 feet.... They've left my garden pissed off, but in one piece! In the meantime, I've got a grizzly 3 year old who won't go back to sleep!!!

Bloody hell Cath, you're on a roll today! *excuse me one sec while i 'supersoaker' the two cats who are fighting in my back garden and have just woken Charlotte up! *

Hmmm, tempting.... very tempting! 33828[/snapback] remember there's an 'S' and a 'thorpe' in there as well!
-
What have I got to do with Scunthorpe??
-
Southern? 33180[/snapback] I said exactly the same thing!

indeedy.... It is the only way to go... Pud, the javascript on the BBC News site is imbedded in the header section. They've got: <script src="http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/nol/shared/js/nol4.js" language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"></script> <script src="http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/nol/ukfs_news/js/av.js" language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"></script> <script src="http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/nol/shared/js/csf_2.js" language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"></script> So I guess if you 'replicate' those js files on your own server and put that in the header and use the other bits i've put above, you should be ok... BTW, Gol has successfully implemented it on his site, so it is possible!

it was gone midnight, i literally lifted the code off the page. Haven't had time to interrogate it yet! I'll have a closer look later on...

This is the html of the page which holds the ticker itself: <!doctype html public "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/loose.dtd"> <html> <head> <title></title> <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;charset=iso-8859-1" /> <link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="/nol/shared/css/news.css" /> </head> <body> <div class="ticki"><a id="tickerAnchor" href="#" target="_top" class="tickl"></a></div> <script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"> <!-- // Ticker startup function startTicker() { // Define run time values theCurrentStory = -1; theCurrentLength = 0; // Locate base objects if (document.getElementById) { theAnchorObject = document.getElementById("tickerAnchor"); runTheTicker(); } else { document.write("<style>.ticki{display:none;}.ticko{border:0px; padding:0px;}</style>"); return true; } } // Ticker main run loop function runTheTicker() { var myTimeout; // Go for the next story data block if(theCurrentLength == 0) { theCurrentStory++; theCurrentStory = theCurrentStory % theItemCount; theStorySummary = theSummaries[theCurrentStory].replace(/"/g,'"'); theTargetLink = theSiteLinks[theCurrentStory]; theAnchorObject.href = theTargetLink; thePrefix = "<span class=\"tickls\">" + theLeadString + "</span>"; } // Stuff the current ticker text into the anchor theAnchorObject.innerHTML = thePrefix + theStorySummary.substring(0,theCurrentLength) + whatWidget(); // Modify the length for the substring and define the timer if(theCurrentLength != theStorySummary.length) { theCurrentLength++; myTimeout = theCharacterTimeout; } else { theCurrentLength = 0; myTimeout = theStoryTimeout; } // Call up the next cycle of the ticker setTimeout("runTheTicker()", myTimeout); } // Widget generator function whatWidget() { if(theCurrentLength == theStorySummary.length) { return theWidgetNone; } if((theCurrentLength % 2) == 1) { return theWidgetOne; } else { return theWidgetTwo; } } // --> </script> <script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"> <!-- var theCharacterTimeout = 50; var theStoryTimeout = 5000; var theWidgetOne = "_"; var theWidgetTwo = "-"; var theWidgetNone = ""; var theLeadString = "LATEST: "; var theSummaries = new Array(); var theSiteLinks = new Array(); var theItemCount = 4; theSummaries[0] = "The government decides that the UVF ceasefire is over after days of riots.

this appears to be the script they're using.... <script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"> <!-- function createClass() { if ((document.getElementById) && (document.body.innerHTML)) { document.write("<div class='ticko'>"); } else { document.write("<div class='tickh'>"); } } createClass(); // --> </script><iframe height="13" marginwidth="0" width="629" scrolling="no" src="/nol/ukfs_news/hi/front_page/ticker.stm" frameborder="0" marginheight="0"></iframe></div> See if you can decipher that - i'll have a look in the morning at it when i'm more awake...
