Hi everyone, I'm doing a theatrical performance, and I need a program that can read images from a folder and display them full screen on one of the computer's VGA outputs, in a predetermined order.

Lately I have been creating PowerPoint presentations to companies. I have mostly been doing this in PowerPoint. Basically they are created by the same design, but just different numbers in set places, and different numbers used to generate the PowerPoint bar graph / pie graph stuff.

In the framework I am working with, if I want to present data in a view I do this: <h1><?php echo $this->header ?></h1> Recently I discovered xTemplate and noticed it uses string placeholders, so the above code in a xTemplate would be: <h1>{HEADER}</h1> I always thought that a little php in the view was ok and was also faster than ...
