I am trying to call a list of products with names, images, etc.. from a specific category in a template using php.
It seems like this should be easy to do, but I have been working on this for hours and haven't made any progress. Does anyone know how to do this?

In your magento phtml file add
<?php
$category_id = xx;
echo $this->getLayout()
->createBlock('catalog/product_list')
->setTemplate('catalog/product/list.phtml')
->setCategoryId($category_id)
->toHtml();
?>

I know, we can add attribute to product list.
I also know, we can add attribute to category using db query. Something like the link below.
http://miragedesign.net/newss/magento-add-custom-attributes-to-category/
My question, is not possible to do through magento admin, as we do for product list?
If yes, How to do it?
Sorry there is no admin interface for linking of attributes to category
You can use setup script for that

In VB6, I want to make a msg box pop up if the word ERROR: appears on the webpage. If anyone could link me to a website or just help we out, that would be great.
Please sample code below:
URL = "www.yoursite.com"
Set http = CreateObject("Microsoft.XmlHttp")
http.open "GET", URL, FALSE
http.send ""
IF InStr(http.responseText, "ERROR:") > 0 THEN
MsgBox "Some error occurred"
END IF

I want to load meta information for my web at the very begining of code execution. I.E, i will pull logo src, site name and meta keywords/description from database and set it to session to display when my page executes. I am trying to use codeigniter hooks to do this. but when I use pre_system hook, it doesnt load libraries and models.
I will be using same scenario to generate installer for my script (like wordpress or joomla), so I need a proper way to initialize my configurations before page execution.
Extend the CI_controller using MY_Controller and load all data in its constructor:
class My_Class extends MY_Controller {
function __construct()
{
parent::__construct();
//Load logo
//Load site name
//Load meta
}
}

They allow you to highlight portions of text, and assign a comment to it... So, how do you associate an object with something that changes all the time?
Does each word need to be an object? Like... the comment would just have an array of words that it's associated with? and then change what is in that array as the document is edited?
I feel like the each-word-is-an-object approach would result in a slow web app. =\
Another issue I thought of: since this is the web, there are HTML tags everywhere... what happens to HTML tags surrounding text selected for highlight? what if the start or end of the highlight starts / ends in the middle of a tag, and ends / starts outside the tag?
Obviously, I don't know how they do it. I'm just throwing an idea or two out there.
Think of it as bolding text, rather than commenting. How would you get past the tag barriers then? You'd end the bold before the closing tag, and resume it at the new opening tag.
Now you have to group those (potentially fragmented) tags somehow. That would likely be via some sort of naming convention.
<ul>
<li>This text <comment id="c1#0"> has been flagged for review.</comment></li>
<li><comment id="c1#1">And this is more text</comment>to be reviewed.</li>
</ul>
Sound reasonable? Or have I been sniffing the whiteboard markers too much today?

I have a lot of tables. Each table has an incremental int ID and a company guid id.
I made an with the company guid as id param. Like this:
#Html.(#item.Bedrijfsnaam.ToString(), "Edit", "BedrijfsGegevens", new { id = (Guid)item.Bedrijfsnummer }, null)
When I click on this I want to fill a readonly textboxfor on a different view from a different model with this guid.
The guid is passed properly but then.......what to do?
Thanks in advance.
Cheers
click on what, a link? I'm assuming you forgot the .Actionlink in front of that #HTML. If its a link, take a look at the #Ajax.Actionlink method and then on the onsuccess, trigger some javascript/jquery to fill in a div/cell/textbox or whatever you'd like with the data you return.
