Error: Failed to retrieve directory listing

This is if  you have an FLV file and you don't want any fancy management system, you just want your FLV to play on your webpage.

The following example is a demonstration of how to do this without installing anything on your webserver.

 I like to use flowplayer for this example but my own systems can't use a solution as crude as this.

1. Copy the below code (beginning and ending with object tags)
2. Paste it into your HTML page
3. Replace both instances of the text "http://my.video.com/myVideo.flv" with the full url of your own FLV.
4. Save the HTML page and publish

The Code:

The Error: This file contains HTML or script code that may be erroneously interpreted by a web browser

This is a common error when uploading files that the MediaWiki system does not allow.  By making some minor changes to the MediaWiki LocalSettings.php file, we can fix this.

For demo purposes, I'm going to make our system recognize SWF files (by default these are disallowed):

The Issue

You have a PHP page which generates a HTML form.  When the user submits the form, you want the same PHP page to process the data.

Solution

I've seen a lot of people write CGI requests but if you left the action attribute blank, this would do the same thing:

<form method="post" action="">
...

1. Sort the array by its values

   my_records.sort();

2. Iterate through and output these in HTML

   for(i=0;i<my_records.length;i++){
           // do something to my_records[i]
   }
