    Re: Lightweight Php editor

    It depends on personal preferences and how much you expect your editor to do for you. For most editing tasks, even on my relatively fast desktop and laptop, I like Geany. It is a capable editor with...

    Re: Transferring photos from cell phone

    Suggestions to go into Developer Options, or to install this or that app, are missing the point that this isn't Android we are talking about. LG 450 is a simple flip phone.

    Re: Transferring photos from cell phone

    I am not familiar with the LG 450. But on a similar simple (non-Android) phone I once had as a backup the way to transfer photos was to 'share' them from the phone to the laptop using Bluetooth. Had...
  7. Re: pausing BASH script while file open in editor

    Yes, don't use Sublime (or I guess any GUI text editor). Use vi or nano or another console based editor. Your script should automatically wait until the editor is closed.

    If you download the Linux .bin file from Oracle there is no installation process as such. It is a "self extracting archive" that will just unpack the JRE files into a directory. You can move that...

    Re: Your Favorite SQL/Database GUI Browser?

    For a super quick solution on a remote server: Adminer. phpMyAdmin is nice, but Adminer is about as capable and it works with more than just MySQL/MariaDB. And I like its minimalistic appearance.

    There is no need to be so paranoid. You could just download JRE 1.6 and unpack it somewhere, and make a simple script to start your program using that environment. I believe there are a few...

  17. Re: How to insert a variable into a variable name in PHP?

    I am not sure I understand quite how to imagine your "image fields (the arrays)". Do you have some code that you can show?
  18. Re: How to insert a variable into a variable name in PHP?

    This is how:


    $i = 1;
    while ($i < 5) {
    if (count(${"image_array_$i"})) {
    foreach (${"image_array_$i"} as $img) {
    // image operations

    For what it is worth, I would always choose a ~15" laptop. Anything smaller I just find too uncomfortable to use. A larger one, obviously, is impractical to carry around.
