Please wrap code in [CODE] tags. Quote tags can not be quoted.
Also, that's not exactly the place for such a question.
Anyway, hope that answers your question.
[Edit] Ah, sorry. Didn't notice there was no text.
In that case: Find the T and L parameters. They define the distance from the Top and Left sides of the LFS screen. They can be any number between 0-200. 200 would mean that you button can not be seen. I think it is more than obvious why. If not: Read the InSim.txt file in the docs folder in your LFS folder.

I think that you are likely to receive more support about Lapper in the LFSLapper Development section.
Not sure how right I am, but my guess is that most LFSLapper developers read that section more often.
Also, it is possible that someone has already posted such system in that section too. You can through a few pages if you like to.
Just suggesting.

[Edit] Actually, this isn't so true... Needs more tweaking...
Thanks everyone.
For anyone who cares about the final solution: The last code I posted worked fine, until I started testing it thoroughly. It failed here and there, so I started tweaking it. And the final result is exactly the answer to my very first question.
The regex is actually very simple(if you understand them), but it took me around 3 days to figure it out. The code looks like that:
And in english, that is similar to:
I'm using the english one for translation purposes - to bring back the correct bulgarian name of the month. Yes, maybe it's too complicated and not optimized, but I was looking for a reason to learn something new.
I might explain what the regex does, for those who want. But that is if I have time for it, and if I actually remember to do it.

Indeed. Sorry for the late response.
But, there are more than 24 instances in the Bulgarian language. It's just to be more flexible as I said. And there is a reason for that.
Different people write them in different ways. If I support 24, why not just support the way they will all start typing them?
Example with what should be turned into "September":
Септември (Translates: September)
Се (Translates Se. Unlikely, but not impossible to be shortened that way.)
Сеп (Translates: Sep)
Септ (Translates: Sept)
And, with the regular expression I'm using(the last one I posted), it's also typo-safe. It may use more resources, but in my case, it's better than reloading the page just to tell the user their date has not been recognized.
There's the code I'm using, and it works fine so far:
<?php
function validate_months($string)
{
$invalid = array
(
"/я[нуари]/",
"/ф[евруари]/",
"/мар[т]/",
"/ап[рил]/",
"/май/",
"/юн[и]/",
"/юл[и]/",
"/ав[густ]/",
"/с[ептември]/",
"/о[ктомври]/",
"/н[оември]/",
"/д[екември]/"
);
$valid = array
(
"January",
"February",
"March",
"April",
"May",
"June",
"July",
"August",
"September",
"October",
"November",
"December"
);
$string = preg_replace($invalid, $valid, mb_strtolower($string));
// And to strip other weird stuff, I've created another function
$string = strip_weirdness($string);
return $string;
}
?>
Yes.
Well, I just want it to be more flexible. You know, in English, you can write February, or you can write Feb. You can do the same in Bulgarian.
Anyway, I think I found a solution.
Just make the pattern like so: F[ebruary].
Of course, that would mean that June and July patterns would be like this: Jun[e] and Jul[y].
Simple(?) PHP regex
Hi, I am having a little difficulty with regexes, as you have already probably guessed from the title.
Actually, I've learned them a few times now. But every time I need to use one, I need to learn them again. They just don't want to stay in my head.
Basically, what I want to achieve, is to match a specific letter, and all the letters that follow after it, until it reaches another character(which isn't anymore a letter). I want to do it for Cyrillic letters, if that matters. But it should be the same thing as for Latin ones, I guess.
I am using http://www.functions-online.com/preg_replace.html to test as soon as I find something that might solve the task.
Here's what I'm testing with now:
January almost works.
February is a little worse.
March just doesn't.
In January, I think I only need to make it not stop after same matches? I tried placing a dot before the plus ('/я[а-я].+[^а-я]/'), but then it returned only "january".. xD
Thanks for any help in advance!
[E] The result from this should be "january february some english march".

Thanks.
Needed to know if I have to make my functions compatible with that change.
(And now I do, obviously.)

Is there any reason for the NCN.UCID to be an integer? If not, then.. this is a bug?
That's the whole point.
But they are not very safe against attacks.. After all, they only consist of letters, and maybe a number here or there. But if someone wants to hack your account, a strong password is not a 100% guarantee that they would fail. My main idea was to have a password that your friends have no way of guessing.
This is like the middle option:
Best: Use a strong password generator (very safe, but not really easy to remember)
Middle: Use this generator (not very safe, but fairly easy to remember)
Worst: Chose a password, which is either very easy to guess, or just the same as your username (no comment)
Of course, you can always think of a password yourself, but I didn't include that above, because I wouldn't have been able to say that PassGen is the middle solution.
Not really, those words never existed. Maybe you didn't enter the captcha code? It says that the word already exists if you don't. I will have to fix that.
Sorry, but I had to ban most of your words.
@Everyone: Thanks for having fun with it. It's cool to see people are having fun with it, haha.
And a little request: If you are going to enter words, please make sure you enter them separately (either by submitting them one by one, or dividing them with spaces). Multiple words at once make the generator loseitsuniqueness a bit.
Why leave all those other symbols? I'm leaving only a-z and 0-9. And lowering everything before that.
And by the way: Uploading the changes in a minute. ^_^
[E] Changes uploaded. And, morpha, thanks for suggesting array_unique. I had forgotten about it.
Limitation added: You can't submit more than 15 words at once("at once", meaning per form submission). It will just get the first 15.

Yeah... That's a good idea. Thanks!
The list is still too small, yes. ;d
And a quick change: You can now add 300 words per captcha. If any bots get to it, I will put it back to 10 again.

It's still better than having a password identical to your username. If you try a bit harder, you can find something funny, that you can actually remember. And it won't be too long. Or too random, as a really strong password would be. Yes, the passwords generated from it aren't really safe, but at least you won't need to go to your email, or whatever to copy it.
Stupid little random pass gen
Sooo, hello... I don't really know how to start this thread, because there's only one thing to say, and I didn't want to start drifting around the point, but there I am, doing exactly that. Anyway..
I made a small app, just to entertain myself, and to practice my skills on something a bit unusual.
There's the link: http://lmutafov.com/projects/passgen/
What is it?
I decided to name it PassGen, because I am that smart, and this is such a unique name. Accepting suggestions for a name, anyone? Or I could just make it generate one itself.
The captcha pops up on every 10 successfully submitted words.
The database was just reset. The choice of what's going to be in it is up to you. Of course - random stuff like "asd", and the likes will be deleted. Offensive stuff will also be deleted.
And some useless information, in case you care:
How did I come up with such a stupid idea? - It happened at work, when I had reached the point when 95% of the work was multiplying (copy/paste/delete stuff (I was making the admin sys for a site)), so you can tell how boring that was. And then, it just struck me - make a pass generator. It's gonna be something really fast, and it's going to be entertaining, and this boredom would go away, eventually. I had watched The Social Network the night before, so I had an idea about how the "design" was going to be too. If you've watched the movie, you'll see how similar it is to FACEMASH. I did it, it took 20mins to make the basic functionality, and boredom was defeated too. After that, it took me a few more days to implement some stuff, before it's ready to go public. And there it is - the result from total boredom.
Well, that's it. Have fun.. or.. something.
[E] And uh, yeah, I just noticed the overflow. Sorry about that.

overflow. Sorry about that. Well, I will definitely look that up when I have more time, even though I am quite happy with the results I've came up with. I used a UNION. Tested it with a few queries, and like this
, the query takes 0.0004 sec. I won't be pulling out more than 5 results, so for me, that's more than satisfying. And as for the randomization - I left that to the PHP.
[E] It will also work very well with gaps in the ids(with UNIONs), and it will still be as random. I didn't really like where the article headed when it came down to those gaps. But maybe I just have to read it more carefully.
(SELECT `column` FROM `table` LIMIT x,1)
UNION ALL
(SELECT `column` FROM `table` LIMIT y,1)
UNION ALL
(SELECT `column` FROM `table` LIMIT z,1), the query takes 0.0004 sec. I won't be pulling out more than 5 results, so for me, that's more than satisfying. And as for the randomization - I left that to the PHP.

ORDER BY RAND() alternatives (PHP + MySQL)
Hi,
I'm building a small app, which extracts 2 to 5 different results from a database, but I did it in a very wrong way at first.
Let's say that for these examples we need to extract 3 random results.
At first, I did it like that: ORDER BY RAND() LIMIT 3
But it started loading longer, so I decided to try and optimize it a bit.
And so I did. Right now, it gets the row count with an SQL query; php randomly picks 3 values, and I turn that in a WHERE `id` = 'x' OR `id` = 'y' OR `id` = 'z' query. I know putting LIMIT to that would make it more optimized, but I want to optimize it even more than that.
So, I was thinking of sending 3 queries to the database. Like so:
ORDER BY `id` LIMIT x,1
ORDER BY `id` LIMIT y,1
ORDER BY `id` LIMIT z,1
But, is this actually more optimized? Also, is there a better way of doing it? Or in other words: What's the best way of doing it?

I never said, or even hinted I could do that. How did you come up with that idea?
We do have red/white barriers in the middle of the street in my city.
The previous thing... yes, ok, but it is just a game, who needs it to be so realistic? Also, if you are the right person, and try hard enough, you could achieve in getting any car on a normal road.
I don't see how "We've got too many of them" is a valid point. There are too many of the race servers too, and most of them are also empty. So, that very same point is valid for race servers. The point, that "LFS is a racing simulator" is also invalid. It might be a racing simulator, and it is. Some cars are made for driving in the city too. Do you see me attacking people, because they've decided to go on the track and participate in a race or drift, just because the car isn't made for that?
Don't enter the server, then.
And, please, I don't know you - why are you speaking from my name?
If all you, complaining people really hate the situation that much, and it bothers you a lot, go organize a protest. Heck, go protest in front of Scawen's house if you're that unhappy.
But, I bet, the moment he opens his door you will all start screaming like little JB fangirls..
+ By complaining here you are doing exactly nothing. You may think you have a whole community behind your back, but it's actually just you, in your room, alone.
