Universities need more funding to compete, especially on an international level. It's all well and great having a degree but if the quality and reputation of the institution slips it's going to decrease the value of the qualification. Looking especially at some of the American schools that are...

If you can speak Portuguese you'll be able to read all about their strong commitment to ethics and innovative thinking on the designer's about page. :p

Good luck with the legal stuff considering they're in Brazil.

Maybe I'm being stupid, but I don't get it/see it.

Well technically: <h1>Kevin<span> </span><em>Dendievel</em></h1> h1 em { color:#ff0000; } h1 span { display:none; } But that's just terrible. :)

Well what is $sig when echoed out? Does it contain the <br /> tags as expected? If it does then the problem comes at preg_replace(), if it doesn't then it comes at nl2br() or before.

Dunno, that code works for me perfectly. The only things I can think of is that the input doesn't have newline chars to begin with?

First thing I noticed is that it doesn't work when you vertically resize.

You could add in the collection companies, chuggers, etc. A lot of the time they're a separate company hired by the charity, so their cost comes in before the charity's own admin costs.

Try using \r\n explicitly. PHP_EOL isn't for what you're trying to do. It works for the system PHP is running on, not the system of person who is viewing the webpage. What OS are you/your server using?

How are you going to run commands if you don't remember your password? MySQL :: MySQL 5.1 Reference Manual :: B.5.4.1 How to Reset the Root Password Assuming it just uses root, like a lot of these server packages do. If you have root access already then you can update users/passwords as normal.

Rather amusingly for some other regular readers (:)), I'm going to tell you not to use tables like that. Don't use images for text either. Both are bad, bad, bad. Scale down your logo image to the size you need it so the awful browser scaling algorithms don't make it look bad. Think about...

It's just a sampling problem with reader (probably, but you could take a screen), it'll print fine, don't worry. Actually I think there's a way to turn it off, something about enhance small lines or thin lines in options if I remember. Edit: Ok found it it's in Edit->Preferences->Page...

I think most developers understand content and presentation separation. It's less likely they'll know uncommon CSS attributes and browser targetting, or about a specific nuanced solution to a problem. I'm suggesting methods that people will already understand by simple virtue of knowing...

But I disagree that it's maintainable or as easily comprehendable. Your solution has multiple solutions for different browsers and uncommon CSS statements. Do you think you could do the whole thing by memory, cross browser and all? What about an average web developer? I think most could...
