Hi all, After turning off PHP global variables this line will no longer work. <form method="post" action="<?php echo $PHP_SELF?>"> When I use the form the source looks like this: <form method="post" action=""> So, the problem is $PHP_SELF. Can someone tell me what to use instead? Thanks!

[opensuse] UNKNOWN FORMAT FOR JPEGS IN KONQUEROR
by Chris & Steve 01 May '07

01 May '07

Hi guys, I am new to this community help thing, so please bare with me... I can't view jpegs in Konqueror. It does not recognize the format. I think I accidentally changed the setting for jpegs in Konqueror, but I am not sure exactly what it was. I can view jpegs in digicam, but not in konqueror. When I do a properties in konqueror, for "format" it is unknown. I think it is looking at the jpegs as a text document. What settings do I need to change back for konqueror to see my jpegs as photos again, instead of text documents ? -Steve -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] how to enable figer print reader?
by Peter Van Lone 01 May '07

01 May '07

My HP nw8440 laptop has a fingerprint reader. My compatriots who also have this device (and are running vista) have easily been able to configure this such that when prompted to login, they simply swipe their finger. How to go about this, with SLED 10 or OpenSuse 10.1? Peter -- "Do not be idolatrous or bound to any doctrine, theory or ideology, even Buddhist ones.
