Hello,
My friend sent me a PHP code that he wants to use for a domain availiablility search. The code he provide was very hard for me to understand. I was wondering if you guys/girls knew where there is a tutorial or pre-made script that would allow a scirpt like the html one i proived below.
Thanks.

Code:
<html>
<head></head>
<body>
<b>Domain Search</b><br>
www.&nbsp;&nbsp;
<INPUT TYPE="input" value="Enter Desired Domain">
<option selected>.com
<select>.org
<option>.net
<option>.biz
<option>any
</select>
</body>
</html>

I don't think that there is a premade script for this.

Maybe you should post the php code and we will try to help you Smiley

Thanks olaf that script is working. However I do have a question about. When you cick the search button it pops the other line up. What I am trying to do is make two line breaks before the code, but only when the code pops up.

Heres the piece of the php code I am working with.
Code:
<b>Domain Availability Check</b><br><br>
  <form action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>" method="post" name="form">
    <input type="text" name="domain" size="20" onMouseOver="this.className='imageTwo'" 

onMouseOut="this.className='imageOne'" maxlength="63" class="imageone" value="<?php echo 

(isset($_POST['domain'])) ? $_POST['domain'] : ""; ?>">
    <?php echo $my_whois->create_tld_select(); // this method generates the select menu woth all tld's 

?>
    <br><br>
    <input name="submit" type="submit" class="button" value="Check">  
  </form><br>
<?php echo ($my_whois->msg != "") ? $my_whois->msg : ""; ?>

The last line in the coding above is the pop up text.

Do you have an example you can show me, some other site maybe? (I cant't follow you)

EDIT:

Or its about this?

Code:
<?php echo ($my_whois->msg != "") ? "<p style=\"margin-top:1.0em;\">".$my_whois->msg."</p>" : ""; ?>

Aight that worked.

However, I stumbled across another issue.  Cry
If you look on this page ( http://silent.2dollarhost.net/domain.php Visit through proxy ) the two select menus are different. I can't seem to figure out how to add my css class to the first one. The css class I am using for the second one is class="drop"

Thanks.

Hi,

you forced the select to use a pseudo class that is defined to be used with a input element:

Code:
select.drop {color: #000000;background: #FFFFFF;border: 1px solid #BAD0D6}
input.imageOne{background-color: #FFFFFF; background-image:url(images/inputone.png); color:000000; border: 1px solid #BAD0D6}

Yes, I know I did that. I want the first one to look like the second one. I can't get the first one to do that becuase it is created by the php coding. So how would i attach the css code to the select menu that is created in php?

try this:

inside your css
Code:
#tldSelect select {
  background-color:yellow;
}

wrap arround the php function a span element like this:
Code:
<span id="tldSelect"><?php echo $my_whois->create_tld_select(); ?></span>

Thanks

Yes it looks fine, some hint:

Because an input is different in diff. browsers you should use a backgr. image that repeats in the x direction ( check the form in firefox to see what I mean)

Well... You made me find another problem with that page lol. I noticed that the page does not work in Internet Explorer. Any ideas why it is a blank page in IE?

Thanks

hmmm I'm think its about the absolute postioned layers, these are often the reason of trouble.

I see you have a standard two colom layout try to build your site according this example:

If that is the case why do all the other other non php pages work in IE and not the php?

I don't think that the problem is the php file...the only thing I say is that absolute positioned layouts are not optimal for websites...
