  • I am in love with a Jehovah's witness!?

    Ok there is no doubt about this one, I literally fell in love with a girl I used to work with straight away, she is the most beautiful girl I think i have seer seen in my life, I asked her out and after about a week she said yes! Was a bit awkward her being in the reception etc!

    The first night I saw her, we were chatting about Christmas and stuff and I asked her if she will be going home for Christmas (she is from France) when she told me she was a Jehovah's witness, and would not be celebrating Christmas, which pushed me back a little bit to be honest! But didn't stop me staying over that night with her.!

    This was a year ago. she has tried to teach me the bible (I am a christian but not a JW) and she goes out on the weekends to do her thing which I don't pressure her to stop. But now she has moved to my town and is now commenting about me taking her religion etc, whixh makes me kind of laugh eally as we have been trying for a baby for about 6 months.

    Her mother is a JW and brother are JW but the rest of her family is not!

    I love this girl, I adore her, but I cant be wiith her according to her unless I choose her faith.........I would really appeciate help on this from both sides as I am pretty sure my heart will be smashed somehow soon.

    This is a serious open question, please don't abuse ok!!! You can't tell someone by their religion from the first look !

  • MOT and boot problem?

    Hi

    I have a Nissan Micra 53 plate which has started opening the boot on its own when it is unlocked, then keeps tying to unlock which drives me nuts. Adding to that, when it doesn't do that, the boot seems to be locked most of the time so I can't always open it....(8 time out of 10)

    My question is, I have booked an MOT fo friday, will this make me fail the MOT?

  • Nissan Micra 03 plate battery problems?

    I have had problems recently with the boot unlocking on my car whilst driving along, often I can hear it trying to constantly unlock which can last for as long as the engine is on.

    Now though, I am having an issue where the battery keeps dying on me most mornings (the battery is approx 6 months old), which I can only presume is to do with the boot attempting to unlock constantly.

    Anyone have any ideas, I don't really want to take it to a Nissan dealer for fear of huge cost but if that is my only option then I may have to

  • Internet Explorer won't print my SQL resultset?

    I am working on a voucher website where companies post offers on the site, then a user clicks a button to get a generic voucher BUT with the companies offer and contact details etc done through a php script using a SQL resultset.

    Problem is, in Firefox, when you go to print preview and and also print it off the data is there.....BUT in Internet Explorer, the data shows but when you go to print preview and also print it off the data is missing.....this is annoying as the whole point the site is to get companies offers as stated.

    Am a bit stuck has anyone got any ideas?

    Here is the code I am using

    <?php

    $string1= $_POST['Link'];

    $string2= $_POST['Link2'];

    $string3= $_POST['Link3'];

    $ImageLoc =$_POST['ImageLoc'];

    header("content-type: image/jpeg");

    $wm = imagecreatefromjpeg($ImageLoc);

    $img = imagecreatefromjpeg("Vouchernew.jpg");

    $wmsize = getimagesize($ImageLoc);

    $imgsize = getimagesize("banner2.jpg");

    imagecopymerge($img,$wm,125,5, 0, 0, $wmsize[0], $wmsize[1], 100);//last numeric is image transparancy

    $text_colour = imagecolorallocate( $img, 0, 0, 0 );

    imagestring( $img, 4, 270, 310, $string1,$text_colour );//Compname

    imagestring( $img, 4, 650, 310, $string3, $text_colour ); //Phone

    imagestring( $img, 4, 270, 350, $string2, $text_colour ); //Deal

    imagejpeg($img);

    imagedestroy($img);

    imagedestroy($wm);

    ?>

    the code works fine, just it wont print the data in IE

  • Canadian immigration from the UK guy 33!!!?

    I am seriously considering beginning proceedings to emigrate to canada using the Campbell-Cohen website, I have already been accepted for the skilled work visa.

    My question is, how long would it take, I have read that some places can take up to 43 months to get the visa (If successful) is this true?

    As stated I am currently 33, 34 in april, therfore get top points for age category, if this process does take nearly 2 years will they take into account the age when I first logged the process or will it go on my age when the case is opened?

    Anybody from the UK had the same kind of situation and now in Canada? I realise all cases are done case by case

  • PHP code not sending correct value through!?

    Hi I am writing some php code that uses an sql dataset to loop data onto a form with certain job details values.

    I am then attempting to press a button on any particular job and sent that job number through to another page that then gets all the details for that particular job.

    BUT It is continually only getting the last job no on the sheet rahter than the one I am choosing...

    Im sure this is simple but I cant seem to see why today

    Here is the main code for page 1

    $sql = "SELECT * FROM Jobs where Print_Complete=0";

    $results=mysql_db_query($database_name,$sql,$conn);

    echo "<html><head><title>All Jobs</title></head><body>";

    echo "<h1>All Jobs</h1>";

    while ($output=mysql_fetch_array($results)) {

    $JobNo =$output[JobNo];

    echo "<p><b>Job ID:</b> ". $output[JobNo];

    echo "<br /><b>Desc:</b> ". $output[Job_Desc];

    echo "<br /><b>Print Date:</b> ". $output[Print_Date];

    echo "<br /><b>Delivery Date:</b> ". $output[Delivery_Date];

    echo "<br />";

    echo("<INPUT TYPE=\"text\" NAME=\"JobNumber\" VALUE= \"$JobNo\" id='JobNumber'>");

    echo("<INPUT TYPE=\"submit\" NAME=\"ViewJob\" VALUE=\"View Job\">");

    echo "<hr /></p>";}

    mysql_close($conn);

    ?>

    And here is part of the code for the second page

    $conn = @mysql_connect($database_host, $Username, $database_password, $database_name) or die(mysql_error());

    $JobNo = $_POST['JobNumber'];

    //This receives the JobNo data from the hidden field on the previous page

    $sql = "SELECT * FROM Jobs where JobNo='$JobNo'";

    $results=mysql_db_query($database_name,$sql,$conn);

    echo "<html><head><title>Job No: $JobNo</title></head><body>";

    echo "<h1>Job No: $JobNo </h1>";

  • VB.net question regarding numbers?

    Hi

    I am working on a VB project and need to know how to take a minus sign off a number (after a simple equation) if it does have one, to show in a msgbox.

    Here is the equation!

    num1 = dr.Item("location")

    num2 = CInt(num1)

    num3 = CInt(Area)

    num1 = num3 - num2

    and I have this in the msgbox

    buildstring = buildstring & " which is " & num1 & " floors away from the current job position "

    But like I said if num1 contains a minus then I want to get rid of it and just show the number!

    Cheers anyone

  • Flat Sharing with a mate, were both students!!!?

    Hi,

    Myself and my mate are both going to be 3rd year students next year and are thinking of sharing a flat! We both currently live at home and have decided to do the student thing for the last year. We are both quite naive about expenses, bills etc and wondered if anyone could give us an average monthly expenditure for a small flat costing about £700 a month to rent. We believe that we wont have to pay council tax as were both students!!!
