The only bad thing with that snippet would be if someone has the same IP as the admin IP (extremely low chances).

Detect browsers

Code: 
switch(navigator.appName)
{
 case "Microsoft Internet Explorer":
  // Do stuff
  break;
 case "Netscape":
  // Do other stuff
  break;
 default:
  // Do stuff for other browsers
}

Allows your site to execute JavaScript dependent on the viewers' browser.

Add it wherever needed, generally best in head section or external document.

Chrome seems to be detected as Netscape, and it's not a good idea to rely on this because nothing will happen with non-JavaScript enabled viewers.

Fake a 404

PHP: 
<?php
header("HTTP/1.0 404 Not Found");
exit;
?>

Fake a 404 page, displays as the default 404 in the browser.

Usually used in settings files on direct initialization and the like.

Can be an excellent security by obscurity addition.

Hi, I want to make a request.. I'm a bit dumb in Ajax...

Can you post a snippet in Ajax that can be used in:

1. Updating an element (i.e. div).
2. Getting data from an XML file and using it (childnodes tutorial).

Just a simple framework will do..

Updating an element I'll do, I don't do tutorials but I believe w3schools.com has a great one for #2.

Change Element Content (innerHTML)

Code: 
<script type="text/javascript">
document.getElementById("YOURID").innerHTML="New content, this can contain HTML"; //Change YOURID to the ID of the desired element.
</script>

JavaScript (?)

Changes the content (innerHTML) of any element located by ID to the desired value.

n6zucx.png

Put in <head> section of document.

This can only change one element at a time.

Sorry about the lack of snippets, but I've really been caught up in school.

Thanks for your patience.

    Actually I was just playing with having some kind of mention of the food forum and recipes on the main page to test and see if it would engage some of those people to post something. It is just weird to get so much traffic and no engagement
  • The Helper The Helper:
    So what it really is me trying to implement some kind of better site navigation not change the whole theme of the site
  • Varine Varine:
    How can you tell the difference between real traffic and indexing or AI generation bots?
  • The Helper The Helper:
    The bots will show up as users online in the forum software but they do not show up in my stats tracking. I am sure there are bots in the stats but the way alot of the bots treat the site do not show up on the stats
  • The Helper The Helper:
    New recipe is Shipwreck Dinner - https://www.thehelper.net/threads/recipe-shipwreck-dinner.193511/
  • Varine Varine:
    I want to build a filtration system for my 3d printer, and that shit is so much more complicated than I thought it would be
  • Varine Varine:
    Apparently ABS emits styrene particulates which can be like .2 micrometers, which idk if the VOC detectors I have can even catch that
  • Varine Varine:
    Anyway I need to get some of those sensors and two air pressure sensors installed before an after the filters, which I need to figure out how to calculate the necessary pressure for and I have yet to find anything that tells me how to actually do that, just the cfm ratings
  • Varine Varine:
    And then I have to set up an arduino board to read those sensors, which I also don't know very much about but I have a whole bunch of crash course things for that
  • Varine Varine:
    These sensors are also a lot more than I thought they would be. Like 5 to 10 each, idk why but I assumed they would be like 2 dollars
  • Varine Varine:
    Another issue I'm learning is that a lot of the air quality sensors don't work at very high ambient temperatures. I'm planning on heating this enclosure to like 60C or so, and that's the upper limit of their functionality
  • Varine Varine:
    Although I don't know if I need to actually actively heat it or just let the plate and hotend bring the ambient temp to whatever it will, but even then I need to figure out an exfiltration for hot air. I think I kind of know what to do but it's still fucking confusing
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Maybe you could find some of that information from AC tech - like how they detect freon and such
  • Varine Varine:
    That's mostly what I've been looking at
  • Varine Varine:
    I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic
  • Varine Varine:
    I mean I don't use this enough to pose any significant danger I don't think, but I would still rather not be throwing styrene all over the air
  • The Helper The Helper:
    New dessert added to recipes Southern Pecan Praline Cake https://www.thehelper.net/threads/recipe-southern-pecan-praline-cake.193555/
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Another bot invasion 493 members online most of them bots that do not show up on stats
  • Varine Varine:
    I'm looking at a solid 378 guests, but 3 members. Of which two are me and VSNES. The third is unlisted, which makes me think its a ghost.

  • The Helper The Helper:
    I bitch about Xenforo sometimes but it really is full featured you just have to really know what you are doing to get the most out of it.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is just not easy to fix styles and customize but it definitely can be done
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do know this - xenforo dropped the ball by not keeping the vbulletin reputation comments as a feature. The loss of the Reputation comments data when we switched to Xenforo really was the death knell for the site when it came to all the users that left. I know I missed it so much and I got way less interested in the site when that feature was gone and I run the site.
