Great! Thanks! So let me make sure I understand this. The file is just binary stuff. A hex editor takes that binary stuff and creates a representation of it (in hex). That's what I see on the screen? And then when I edit those hex values and save the file, those values are converted back...

I don't really understand what I'm asking about, but it has something to do with a hex reader I think....if I want to look at a compiled program...I can use a hex reader and view the binary format (in hex values?)...is that right? I have no idea if I'm even asking the question right. Is there a...

When you don't have the access to build other xml support in, your PHP engine only has the default expat engine, which is a pain to work with. Good old Bas van Gaalen has written a nice xml-dom class for PHP which uses only the expat engine. Get it here: http://www.webtweakers.com/phpdomxml/...

Did it, and no more precompiler warnings. Compiles perfectly. Thanks so much!

Thanks so much, that's so helpful to know. You've made my day anarchie. Well, now I'm able to compile my example from the CL, so I guess I'll start trying some Cocoa stuff soon. ;) <edit>One more question: when I change the above HelloCocoa to a Cocoa example -- import...

If you already know C, then maybe the Kochan book isn't good. It starts from ground zero (no C experience at all) and goes all the way up through Foundation, but it really sticks to Objective-C as Obj-C, so you can use it to learn the GNU or Mac versions. Kochan's book is good for beginners who...

Thanks! I'll give it a try! Could you explain what the -lobjc and -framework Cocoa arguments do? I've also seen -framework Foundation...

Hmm...thanks for the replies, I just started learning yesterday too. :) I'll try and figure out how to include ObjC...I haven't seen that in any of the examples I'm looking at (the example above is a simplified version -- meaning I've reduced the number of methods and such -- of an example...

I'm trying to run a simple HelloCocoa class, but I'm running into troubles. For simplicity's sake, I've got the @interface, @implementation, and main( ) in main.m. I compile with cc main.m -o prog1 in the terminal and I get this error: ld: Undefined symbols: .objc_class_name_Object...

Well, I say the best starter language, especially for kids, is Flash Actionscript. First: you can do basic stuff like declare variables, if statements, loops, and arrays without having to start with a class and main() method (something that's way too advanced for someone just starting)...

Well, I know you don't want to check out books, but I'll recommend one for others who might be reading this thread with the same question. Kochan's Programming with Objective-C is brand new and very helpful for amateurs like me, as it assumes that you don't know C or advanced...

Amen.

Yeah, I love it here in the UK. :) I suppose I'll have to get one. It'd be so nice to watch these things on your own pb though. ;)

I too have DVDs purchased when I lived in the US which I can't watch now that I'm in the UK. I've never been able to play a DVD with VLC. Most of the time it does nothing, but sometimes it will play to the main menu but then go black and do nothing. Ugh. But you can use DVDInfo X to find out if...

These are great, exactly what I'm looking for, thanks all!

Here's a thought. Start with something that requires no libraries and no advanced concepts. The first order of business is probably to learn not just the basics (variables, loops, conditions) but also how to use the basics (i.e. the basics are easy to understand and are definitely intuitive, but...

Thanks for the tip binaryDigit, I'll check that out.

no worries, take your time. ;)

yeah, mr. K is right: I remove the xml declaration at the top and it works fine. hmmm...

Yeah, it's local for me too, but I'm still running it through a web server. Here's my test xml file (named test.xml): <?xml version="1.0" ?> <?xml-stylesheet type="text/css" href="test.css" ?> <entries> <entry id="0"> <entryHeader>This is a test header</entryHeader>...
