Tom2299 Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 Hi, I am wanting to set up phpVMS but I am wondering whether it only works when you view it through a web host. If someone could let me know that would be great. Thanks Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RogerB Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 You can set it up on your local machine if you like and run it. Use a program called wampserver. www.wampserver.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom2299 Posted March 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 Ok I really am stuck, what is the best program to edit the stuff in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Nabeel Posted March 15, 2009 Administrators Report Share Posted March 15, 2009 Hey, A few people use Eclipse editor. What do you mean by only through a web server? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom2299 Posted March 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2009 Well when I have done websites on Dreamweaver I can just press F12 to see what it is like with all the images, background etc. But with phpVMS it just shows the writing in the template even though I have transfered the style sheet and images that go with the template.

RogerB Posted March 15, 2009 Report Share Posted March 15, 2009 Yeah Tom if you set it up on your local machine you can view it ......If your using dream weaver you can use the get and put functions it has to put the files on your web server.

Tom2299 Posted March 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2009 How do you access the Admin panel thing that is shown in the tutorial by Nabeel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom2299 Posted March 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2009 Sorry I have found my problem, I read through the forum and found that all that is needed to be done is upload the files to a host, right? Then edit whatever I need to through the host........aaargh Im confused now!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Nabeel Posted March 16, 2009 Administrators Report Share Posted March 16, 2009 Yes, you have to upload the files to your host, but you can edit them on your local machine. I was using a local webhost (using xampp), to quickly do stuff, then I upload the finished product Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom2299 Posted March 17, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2009 Ok thanks, I'm beginning to get the idea of how it works now, sorry if Im being a pain :S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom2299 Posted March 17, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2009 Ok I got all the tables working but now Im trying to figure where all the other files go. Im using 000webhost Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cale250 Posted March 17, 2009 Report Share Posted March 17, 2009 Oh- make sure when you're using 000webhost to disable their analytics code- It causes major issues with AJAX and sometimes with PHP. Make sure you set it to disabled for your site at http://members.000webhost.com/analytics.php Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Nabeel Posted March 18, 2009 Administrators Report Share Posted March 18, 2009 No problem, you just need to upload the index.php and all the folders to your web root Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom2299 Posted April 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2009 Thanks, its all working now. Im just tinkering with it now to change font types and the like. Just one question, how do you change the layout/format of the recent reports so it can be displayed as something similar to an arrivals board so it shows origin, destination, aircraft type, flight number etc? Would be great if someone could guide me in the right direction. Thanks Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
