Sometimes what looks like the best route to take doesn't always end up that way as you have found.

If you can't get support from the site that helped you set up your website then it maybe time to cut your losses and rethink using Coffee Cup software.

Amazing support from both the tech team and the forums and easy to use software. When you toss in the amazing prices and and free updates for life its hard to resist.

Support is a major point to consider and if you can't get it with the system you have chosen then it might be wise to make the change now before you invest more time and effort into a system without support.

As much as I'd love to say I could help you Kimberly, it's above my head and I'm sure many other's heads here too. What you're asking people to do here is give you support for another site's software and that's pretty much above what should be expected here.

Having said that, there are a lot of different tutorials, even free classes or cheap classes on PHP if you want to learn it and you can also go to Fe Pixie's site and see if anything there can help you as she has a pretty good help site for PHP at http://www.pixieplots.co.nz/forum/viewforum.php?f=4 for lots of different PHP and other website stuff. I would suggest you look around for some place to learn about PHP and see if you can get the hang of it yourself, or... if you're looking to hire someone here on the forums to help that would be another way to do it, there may be people on the forums here willing to take time to teach you for a fee.

Anyways, I think you should take a look at what it is you're wanting to do and then go from there. If you're looking to hire someone I would say make another post in this section of the forums or in the breakroom with the title stating what you're wanting to do so people know you're searching to hire for help.

Wish I had more suggestions or resources for you, but Pixie's is bout all I have onhand on this computer. Others may have some suggestions for where you can learn more on PHP too. In the end though, I don't think asking people here to support someone else's software is a good thing to do. Personally I wouldn't use that software if the people creating it aren't prepared to support it. That's just me, but if I'm going to use something, the people making it had damned well better be prepared for questions and problems, or be prepared to go out of business pretty quick. If they are that swamped they shouldn't be taking out the problems on their customers, they should be hiring more help. They are obviously selling their product if they have that many support tickets, so hire someone to help with them and give your customers the support they deserve.

Good luck on it

No you can not see the php by view sourcing (which by the way is not fully disabled on your pages - i can see it)

lesson 1.
php MAKES html pages - it does it on the server before sending the correct html to the browser - the website user can not see it phping - in general, by the time the browser gets the page all the php is done...



all that means is that your page isnt valid html code

yes you wasted $3000 if they taught you to code with dreamweaver - dreamweaver does not know good code or php - knowing HTML and CSS is vital before diving into php though, so if you leant that thoroughly you'll do fine at php and javascript next...

And no you wont learn enough from one or 2 tutorials to fix whatever it is your 'package code' needs - php is a huge language with 10 ways of doing anything at all - expect to spend another couple of years before you understand your package code - the only person that will know how to fix that is the person who wrote it - ask them

Does CC offer web hosting?

almost - wait 6 months or so and they might shhh - dont tell anyone though

is that a shhhhhhhh like in S drive shhhhhhhhhhhhhh?

lol...ok, thanks

Hi
One day i had a free script for a shopping cart using PHP and MySQL. My knowledge of this is almost zero, I have only some knowledge of VB, Dbase, Basic and medium knowledge of HTML and CSS.
As the this scrip has a very poor appearance I decide to edit the HTML and the PHP. It was quite a job and in the end I just edited the HTML created by PHP and isolated some code wich was causing some kind of failure. I could understand the code but didn't know the PHP rules and syntax.
Maybe you can do something by yourself but it will be difficult.
Regards

Thanks Jimmy, I will try.

There are a lot of users right here on the forums too that have hosting companies, a few people come to mind, but you could feel free to make a new post and just ask for hosting suggestions? I don't see how that would be a problem and it might benefit both you and the users that do hosting here too
