Excellent news. Congratulations to everyone who has contributed.

Not the only way but yes I would recommend using the raw format in your case. You only need two things.
1. In the URL linking to this, add "format=raw" as a variable in the URL query
2. Save this view file as view.raw.php

That's it.

parent::display($tpl) loads the template of your view not the template of your site. If you do not call that display function anywhere in your view Joomla will not render any output from your component but it will still load the template of your site.

Yes this will keep Joomla from rendering your component output in a template. However the resulting output will not be an actual HTML document either. This will also kill all Joomla processes following the document rendering - caching as well as several other events such as onAfterDispatch and onAft...

I have found two options: 1. Create a raw view - view.raw.php This will only render out put from your view but will not load any info in the document head. It's a good option for doing anything with Ajax. 2. Add tmpl=component in the URL query This will load head info, along with your template css, ...

You are loading the right file unfortunately you have the wrong class name in your code. The class name is JFliterOutput.

You can keep the file named reviews.php if you want but then you have to change the classname to TableReviews and the JTable::getInstance needs to call Reviews.

echo that path in your code and check if it's right. One reason it could be wrong is that the file your trying to set the path with is in administrator/components/com_component but the table directory is in components/com_component. One other reason for this error is that you don't actually have a f...

The path to your tables directory isn't correct so JTable isn't able to find the file for your review table.

Joomla 1.5 uses a normal PHP session but uses objects within its own framework to work with it.

Check out libraries/joomla/session/session.php

You need to be much more specific with your question.
By JPGraph do you mean just the library http://www.aditus.nu/jpgraph/ or do you mean the third party extension http://extensions.joomla.org/component/ ... Itemid,35/

What exactly do you need help with? Is there something you are trying to do that isn't working?

Now that Joomla 1.5 has the wonderful plugin architecture wouldn't it be possible to create a plugin (or a set of plugins) that authenticates against another Joomla installation? The ideal situation would be that you could turn of user registration on all sites except the "master site" and yet have...

I think this would be possible with a system plugin. Use the setTemplate method of $mainframe inside a onAfterInitialise method of the system plugin you create. For reference, check out plugins/system/remember.php to learn how to create the plugin and includes/application.php to learn how to set a t...

I'm not much with DB stuff and I haven't played around much with Joomla's acl but I do know the left right values in a DB table are used to create a tree structure, in this case it's a nested set model. The purpose would be for heirarchy, so where ever the record falls in the tree structure would di...

I don't think this would work...
if (form.email.value != "gmail")

Even if they provided a gmail address it would still return false. You need a regex check for gmail.

This should be fairly easy for J! 1.5

You would need a User plugin with a onBeforeStoreUser method to validate the email address. Check out the example plugin in plugins/user and this tutorial will help as well...

If this is for 1.0.x I'm afraid I don't have any ideas.

Man, where have I been for the past few days I would have loved to work on a tagging extension? Oh well. Can I get on the waiting list?

If your custom component requires it's own library I would recommend storing the library in only one location. Either in the frontend or in the administrator is up to you but I would recommend storing your library in administrator -> components -> com_yourcomponent -> libraries You would then import...
