[PHP] Re: Help with regex (search/replace) please
@Al,
> have you looked at the Pear html_QuickForm2 set?
Actually nope, whats it about? just did a google search and found it on the php
site but no example code around so dont really have a clue.
@Ash,
Pastebin! Of course, why didnt i think of that... will do!
Actually, just did so that i wouldht have to double post to the list.
heres the pastebin url
http://pastebin.com/m18b6fb86
I cleaned up a lot of surrounding code so its a bit more readable leaving only
the relevant code.
Theres one thing quite strange that i have to mention, this code:
if($input->getAttribute("type") ==strtolower("radio") &&
$input->getAttribute("name") ==strtolower("living_in_prague"))
works find
but if I instead use
if($input->getAttribute("type") ==strtolower("radio") &&
$input->getAttribute("name") ==strtolower("living_in_prague") &&
$input->getAttribute("value") ==strtolower("0"))
OR
if($input->getAttribute("type") ==strtolower("radio") &&
$input->getAttribute("name") ==strtolower("living_in_prague")
&& $input->getAttribute("value") ==strtolower("0"))
OR
if($input->getAttribute("type") ==strtolower("radio") &&
$input->getAttribute("name") ==strtolower("living_in_prague")
&& $input->getAttribute("value") ==0))
It does not work... even though i KNOW that thats the correct value because i
checked the static html page like 10 times...

Re: [PHP] Help with regex (search/replace) please
Hey Ash,Bastien! Rather than a regex, you're probably better off using something like DomDocument, where you can iterate over all of the input elements in the document, and check the attributes of each one to check if they match your criteria. @Ash, You're kinda reading my mind... i did do this in domDocument but it didnt work out so well... so now am trying to do this in a diff way. Is it ok if i send you the code via an attachment? it is REA messy code right now though. @Bastien, you're talking client side... i need to do this server side as then i am writing the results to a file which is going to be used as a template in other scripts. Thanks! Ryan
[PHP] Help with regex (search/replace) please
Hey guys, As many of you might know, i totally suck at regex..so would really appreciate some help here. Basically i have a html page with a lot of textboxes,radios,checkboxes etc i need your help in the form of a regex so that when i give it the name and value it gives me the entire code of that checkbox. for example here are 2 checkboxes: so if i want the second checkbox code i was thinking of something like this: $the_name="something2"; $the_value="2"; $fetched=getCheckboxFromHTML($the_name,$the_value); and then if successful the variable $fetched would contain the idea is that i would use the contents of $fetch to add some code before the end just before the greater than symbol, and do a str_replace(). What do you think? Critique of my logic above too is welcome! Thanks! Ryan -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Re: [PHP] Thinking of moving to .NET because of standalone... any suggestions?
Thanks for the links and advise guys! Of all I found this most interesting as it would run native: >check out http://www.php-compiler.net/doku.php unfortunately I think this project is dead or at best stagnant because the server is slower than a 99 year old on weed and forums link dead. Documentation is badly limited as well. But if someone was used this or is using this, would love to hear from you. Till then am back to checking out the other recommendations and googling.

Re: [PHP] Thinking of moving to .NET because of standalone... any suggestions?
Thanks for the reply Michael, Robert and Jochem, makes sense, a native windows app is going to look more in place than any of the demos and graphics i have seen of GTK. Was also looking at GTK-Builder, unfortunately you really have to hunt for each scrap of new info - which is why I'm guessing open source falls back a bit compared to M$'s offerings. MS shoehorning something into dotnet sounds interesting, will ask my pal google what he can bring up ;) I did read about FLEX but i have pretty much complete php scripts that i want to use in a desktop environment, FLEX wouldnt do for my (present) needs. Will look up WxWidgets and HipHop (somehow i get the feeling i'm gonna be drowned in millions of results that have rap lyrics instead of programming information - should be a test of my patience :-))) Anyone have anything more to add/advise, please do so.

[PHP] Thinking of moving to .NET because of standalone... any suggestions?
Hey Guys, Coming from a C and Java background I just loved PHP and have been programming with it for years thanks in a large part to the kind people on this list... present and past (Immediately the name John Holmes comes to mind.. i hope the dude is well) but now I have have to leave PHP or split time between php and .NET for just one reason: .NET offers a way to run programs using the Windows GUI / stand alone executable There always was talk on the list about running php code as standalone, but since I had a long absence from the list sorry if I missed any new updates... but I'm hoping someone can offer a way to run php standalone executable. Before posting I always google, and the main results I have gotten so far is: priado blender and PHP-GTK but no way to kind of drag and drop what you need like visual studio (i dont know how to use it yet, but been reading) or some other visual development tool like visual basic. I need to make a few standalones programs that will run (mostly) on Windows... is there any other way that I have not found that i can use PHP instead of learning something new like .NET? I have resisted going "the microsoft way" for years.. looks like my luck has run out...

When I get stuck on things like this, I find print_r() invaluable as it can
basically dump out the objects entire contents, so I can see what values it has
set.
Hey Ash,
Thanks for replyng.
Where exactly do i use the print_r? and on which variable?
Because i have tried it in different places but still no luck..
[PHP] DOM TextArea (and dom chart please)
Hey!
i'm just starting with PHP's DOM-XML and need a little help please.
Basically, first i am trying to see if a input like a textbox has a 'VALUE='
associated with it, if yes, i leave it be, if no, i add a default value.
This *is working* as can be seen by the attached code below.
But a bit confused as to how to do the same for a textarea as textarea's do not
have a 'VALUE=' attribute.
Heres my code:
$website_data = file_get_contents('dom_test.html');//load the website data,
$dom = new DomDocument; //make a new DOM container in PHP
$dom->loadHTML($website_data); //load all the fetched data into the DOM
container
$inputs = $dom->getElementsByTagName('input'); // Find Sections
foreach ($inputs as $input) { //*** this block has the guts of the
functionality ***
if(!$input->getAttribute("value") || $input->getAttribute("value")=="")
{
$input->setAttribute("value", "RRR");
}
}
// * now we come to the textarea bit that is not working *
$inputs2 = $dom->getElementsByTagName('textarea'); // Find textareas
foreach ($inputs2 as $input2) {
if(!$input2->firstChild.nodeValue=="") {
$input2->firstChild.nodeValue=="it works!";
}
}
echo $dom->saveHTML();
?>
+++
// I have even tried this instead of the above:
foreach ($inputs2 as $input2) {
if(!$input2->getAttribute("defaultValue")=="") {
$input2->setAttribute("defaultValue","it works!");
}
}
but no joy.
I'm betting its pretty simple but i dont have a "DOM chart" for php, the only
ones i have been able to find via google are for javascript like this one:
http://www.hscripts.com/tutorials/javascript/dom/textarea-events.php
and that chart does not help much. Does anyone have a PHP DOM chart or a
resource that i can use to get started using this?
Thanks in advance!

I got a US client who wants me to make a personal site, 4-7 "sections" (eg: about me, photos, whats new etc) and have to put a yearly maintenance $$ amount... I thought i'll make most of the stuff using php rather than plain html so the client can update different sections without me (eg: whats new, add pics) What do you guys charge for something like this (dont count hosting and domain fees) Thanks!

[PHP] Replacing with f*ck and f*cking
Hey!
I'm just trying to replace some of the more bad words with their slightly
censored counterparts like so
$bad_words = array(/*Well you know the words so am not going to write them
here*/);
$bad_words_replacements = array("f*ck", "f*cking");
$comment = str_replace("$bad_words",$bad_words_replacements, $comment);
My question is this, for just two words its fine to use the above, but a pal
tells me that if using a lot of words (eg: 15) and the $comment is big then it
can take quite some time and be a bit of a processing strain as well because
php first checks the first word from the good list against all the 15 words in
the bad list against the comment then moves to the second word etc.
Is this really bad processing wise and would you recommend any other way of
doing this?
The other question i have is, wont "f*ck" catch "f*cking" as well? so should i
delete the longer f*cking?
I'm not really trying to stop people swearing... just trying to make it not
"jump out" so much, this was the poster is happy coz i have not censored him to
bits and the reader should be a bit happy coz its a bit decent.
Thanks!

Are you sure LIKE isn't working? I would think LIKE "a%" would work. For 0-9, I would think you can use <= 9 or you can use BETWEEN 0 and 9.

Also how to do 0-9? do i have to have 10 if() conditions for that? Ideas and suggestions welcome. Thanks!

I got this script off the net, cant even remember where :( its basically to
resize an uploaded image (i have a script that does exactly this that i created

jpgs, this one does gifs and pngs as well)
the way the original guy wrote it is that it writes the uploaded image to the
DB, i'm just trying for it to create a resized image *instead of writing to the
db*.

[PHP] searching by tags....
Hey, this the first time I am actually working with "tags" but it seems quite popular and am adding it on a clients requests. By tags I mean something like wordpress' implementation of it, for example when an author writes an article on babies the tags might be baby,babies, new borns, cribs, nappies or a picture of a baby can have the tags baby,babies, new born, cute kid, nappies the tags are comma separated above of course. The way i am doing it right now is i have sa an article or a pic saved in the db as article_or_pic_address text the_tags varchar(240) My question is, when someone clicks on any one of the tags, do i do a LIKE %search_term% search or...??? quite a few sites seem to have a very neat way of implementing this with (url rewriting?) something like http://sitename/blog/tags/tag-comes-here/ Any help in the form of advise, code or links would be appreciated. TIA. Cheers!

Ok, I changed it to:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oQ2dKXGAjNg";);
preg_match('/#([^<]*)<\/title>#iU',$data,$match);
$title=$match[1];
echo $title;
?>
And this is the error i am getting:

[PHP] Little regex help please...
Hello!
Here's a regex that I got off the web that I am trying to modify for my needs,
I suck at regex so desperately need some help.
Basically, am trying to get a remote webpage and get the value between the
tags, note that it should get the values regardless if is upper
or lower case (case insensitive)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oQ2dKXGAjNg";);
preg_match('/#([^<]*)#/iU',$data,$match);
$title=$match[1];
echo $title;
?>
This is the error that i am getting when running the above:
Warning: preg_match() [function.preg-match]: Unknown modifier 't' in
C:\wamp\www\ezee\tests\get
_remote_title.php on line 3
TIA,

Re: [PHP] RE: Sale 79% OFF !!!
I hate to admit to this, but some 15 years ago I was consulting for a company doing oil exploration in Nigeria and I received a very elaborate and believable Nigerian scam. It was complete with signed and official documents from both the Nigerian Government and the Bank of Nigeria. I passed the proposal through two attorneys and the decision was to participate. Of course nothing happened and we did not lose anything. But the first Nigerian scams were very believable. Heck! Always wanted to "meet" someone who feel for the Nigerian scams, would never have thought you would be the one Tedd! Can you give me mroe details of the scam? Is it like the ones we get via email everyday or different? Cheers! Ryan -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] Most popular per month
Hey! The client has a set of 50 images that keep rotating everyday and when a user clicks one of those images he is taken to that images site, in the background (database) i maintain a counter _for the day_ and then display the top ten images everyday in this format: 1-10 before the next days counter starts this data is stored in a table which has a simple structure like this img_id1 int,img_id2 int (etc till img_id10) Now the client wants a little extra functionality, and with me sucking at maths I need some help please, basically he now wants to have a chart with all the 50 images there and showing _via percentages_ instead of the present 1-10 display which ones are the most popular till date. example: 1. image name: (percentage here) 2. image name: (percentage here) 3. image name: (percentage here) etc any ideas on where i can start/ code tips/ urls etc would be most appreciated. Also, if i am not mistaken there was some charting software to display this kind of data in pie and line charts... anybody know what i am talking about? because i cant find such a link in my bookmarks.

Re: [PHP] Monitor a WP website
If it's RSS, I think it's going to be XML regardless of the language they're using to assemble it (Perl, PHP, ASP, etc.). I might be wrong, but I thought that's part of what made it RSS. I'm afraid to click on a site with the url "ballz.info" while I'm at work. :D Any other WP feed examples? LOL, no worries, all links that i sent are work safe... although if someone saw you open that their opinion of you might be lowered as its a celeb site and presently has super dumbo Paris H on the first page...

I do not know why somebody would spam it, but I have had all kind of forms being spammed - it seem there are people out there who find immense pleasure in spamming forms, regardless of the result. I really dont see what anybody could gain by spamming this form but anyway it does check to make sure the person submits something that starts with "http" via strstr (after bringing it down to lowercase, thats why i didnt use stristr, and because it checks just "http", https too is allowed, i really dont think people will have much use for FTP or other protocols here so didnt bother, it also safeguards my server from people trying to serve up my local files).. If i do see spam, will throw in a captcha... there are many other there that are decent, i might not go for "enter the below characters" one but most probably "click the elephant/cat/dog/mouse" in the picture one.

[PHP] Anybody got a little spare time to help me out with a little OOP
coz i suck at OOP!
Hey!
Am trying to modify a wordpress plugin file,the name of the plugin is POST
TEASER and can be downloaded from here
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/post-teaser/, it works as advertised and
this is what it does:
I specify for
example 4 words before the page should be "cut", it first breaks the
page down into blocks based on the and tags
example
this will be block 1
this will be block 2
this will be block 3
etc
then
it counts the words in block 1, if its equal to the number of words i
specified.. it returns the whole block if not it returns block1 and
block 2 etc...
What i am trying to make it do is... if i specify 3 workds it returns EXACTLY 3
words like so:
"This will be read more inside!"
I have written the code to get the above output... but being a total dumbo at
OOP i dont know where to 'insert' the code.
here is the code I have come up with:
== Start code
$sample_string="From http://www.ezee.se/ The UK police are by far one of the
most open to being greedy and corrupted by their afore mentioned greed, case
and point: the hundreds of extra speed cameras that are put in place with an
idea of making more money rather than public safety, cameras that get fines
that are around 100 million pounds per year! Heres one example..";
$words=explode(" ", $sample_string);
$no_to_display=12;
for($i =0; $i < $no_to_display; $i++)
{$make_string_again .= $words[$i]." ";}
echo $make_string_again."... read more inside!";
end code
===
Have upped the file here if you want to give it a shot the script is pretty
well self documented too via comments in the script.
Thanks in advance,
Ryan

Re: [PHP] Update does not work...but no errors either

[PHP] Update does not work...but no errors either
Hey,
This is my code:
==
$update_sql="update greetings_final set
heading='$heading',message='$message',signature='$signature',font_size='$font_size',font_color='$font_color',bg_color='$bg_color'
where temp_cno='".$thecno."' and rand_string='".$randreference."' LIMIT 5";
echo $update_sql."";
$result2 = mysql_query($update_sql);
if(mysql_affected_rows()==0){echo "Error R093d: unable to update
greeting";exit;}
==
As you can see above, i have a echo to show me the exact SQL being run
and also a mysql_affected_rows check to spit out an error if no rows get updated
but for some reason no rows are getting updated but mysql is not echoing
that error message plus
the sql is running perfectly if i copy and paste it from the echo into
phpmyadmin
any ideas?
Thanks!

Re: [PHP] Weird update problem..

[PHP] Weird update problem..
This is really weird... i have tried the same exact code in phpmyadmin and it
works like a charm, but when i run the script... no errors then i go to
phpmyadmin and nothing has changed :(
this is the code:
$how_many_to_update=count($cardno_array);
// update the cards status to sent
for($i=0;$i<$how_many_to_update;$i++)
{
$update_sql="update greetings set is_sent=1 where
cardno='".$cardno_array[$i]."' and rand_str='".$rand_str_array[$i]."' LIMIT 1";
$result = mysql_query($sql_1);
$num_rows1 = mysql_num_rows($result);
if(!$result || $num_rows1==0){echo "Error: unable to update sent
greetings";exit;}
echo "updating$update_sql";
}
=
In the second last line you can see i have an echo statement... the SQL thats
outputted from there works perfectly in phpmyadmin...
any idea whats wrong?
Slightly OT, any better way to run the multiple updates needed above than
instead of running the update query in a loop?
I searched google and the best i could find was the IN() for mySql... but that
does not take 2 parameters (eg: cardno and rand_str) it would work just on
card_no like this in('14','34')
Thanks!

Re: [PHP] 0T - Request for quick test
Hey Daniel B, Steve H and Thiago P, Thanks for replying! My cuz couldnt upload from her browser, thats why i requested this... wanted a upload with progress bar but this was the best simple one i could find which unfortunatly didnt have a progress bar but was free and OS. > Looks like it worked, Ryan. One suggestion, though: instead of the button > next to the green arrow Had a problem with something conflicting with Javascript's form submit(), and since i am using quite a lot of OS free scripts from other people and wrote more JS here myself than on any other project that comes to mind AND i am no JS guru... thought i would just work around that instead of confronting it head on. Your JS for email verification is annoying :P Type something in email address field and then go to next field, and then press shift+tab or alt+tab and see it going nuts :) Hehe! I see what you mean... you're like a little gremlin to catch that LOL! I am actually checking server side again if the user has entered the correct values, but the reason i put it there was just as a reminder because a lot of people are used to just entering their email once... do you think its over kill and i should just do it server side? Its quite easy to bypass the JS code if you REALLY wanted to do it... and if you do you will see that the script gives you a "error box" and shows you the form again...

Yep, sorry... Just add the s
preg_match_all('|]*>(.*)|Uis', $myText, $myArray);
Swett! It works!
If you _do get time_, would love to know the actual meaning of
|]*>(.*)|Uis
because although I do appreciate the help and the code, am learning to work a
bit with regex
and this is still quite advanced for me.
So far I have gotten (correct me if I am wrong)
|]*> = 1) Starts with "
3) end with ">"
(.*)| = 1) can have whatever inbetween till the end which is ""
Have no idea of the Uis switches...

Hmm I guess, but I'd take the safer road and open a console and run: mysqldump.exe -u -p --all-databases --add-drop-database --opt > mysql.database.dump so you have an sql file you can restore if necessary. Adjust paths/files/usernames/passwords as necessary. Hey! Thanks for replying. I decided to try something else while waiting for a response (still nothing from the main XAMPP forums though) and this is what worked for me, am posting it here so maybe it will help someone else in future (via the archives) facing the same problems that I faced , I dont know if this is a temp fix, I dont think so and it works perfectly for now. Downloaded XAMPP again, installed it in c:/xampp2 (original version was in c:/xampp) copied over all the files needed from the htdocs to c:/xampp2's htdocs in the MySql folder, go into the "data" folder and just copy the files with the DB names that you created, leave all other files alone, paste these files into the c:/xampp2/mysql/data folder... do not overwrite anything, and if you have done this correctly you should _not_ get the overwrite prompt Go to xampp's security page and redo the security including putting the password for root.. I am a bit of a paranoid dude, so i did a complete backup of all myfiles in htdocs and the mySql data folder and burnt it to DVD, you might consider doing thesame...just in case. Thats it! Remember to edit the paths in your scripts for those that need it from xampp to xampp2. A slight hassle, but not one that cant be done in 3-10 mins including copy time.

It was easy to install and has given me months of hassle free use... but today i have started facing some strange problems of everytime I start Apache... it crashes my laptop, anybody else run into this? I use this only for PHP, no perl. My config: Win Vista home premium with all updates and patches (genuine, not pirate copy) core2 duo 2ghz 2 gigs ram Nothing installed today for it to be acting up so. Do you suggest I reinstall? or can I just reinstall Apache in some way? If i have to reinstall is there an easy way of backing up my stuff and then reinstalling then putting my stuff back? (I know i can just copy the files that were in the htdocs... but am talking about an easy way to copy the files and the DBs and put them back... or is that just wishful thinking?

Re: [PHP] dynamic boxes problem... JS and PHP
Hey Bill, Thanks for the tips, makes sense and will try to follow them. Cheers! R * Ryan, Four observations: 1. Don't try to solve your problem by changing the DOCTYPE. Bad HTML is bad HTML. Changing the DOCTYPE may reduce the severity of the problem, but it won't solve it. 2. You have interpreted the fact that IE gave you what you expected while FF did not as a problem with FF, but the opposite is true. A problem with IE allowed it to accept HTML that it should not have accepted. FF treated it properly. 3. Firebug is a free download from Mozilla. I have it and it has solved more problems for me than I can remember. (Or, maybe I just don't have a very good memory.) Get it. You will see your tags inside thetags, but not inside any ... tags. 4.

Hey Pete, ** First, you should reply to the list - that way more people could see the links you posted and help out. ** Oops, my mistake, I thought I did that. Will add a snip at the bottom of this email. ** It looks like there may be a problem with the form tags - when I look at this code I see That looks like you've closed your "mainform" before defining the inputs ** can you tell me which line you see this? I did a search using that string on top and I couldnt find it... I even did a "form" search and still didnt find both of the form tags side by side..

One thing I learned when screwing around with AJAX is that it,
like nearly everything that occurs in nature, must be customized to
play nicely with Microsoft things. Call me bitter. No, seriously, it
could be my new nickname.
//Gets the browser specific XmlHttpRequest Object
function getXmlHttpRequestObject() {
if (window.XMLHttpRequest) {
return new XMLHttpRequest();
} else if(window.ActiveXObject) {
return new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
} else {
document.getElementById('p_status').innerHTML = 'Status: Cound not
create XmlHttpRequest Object. Consider upgrading your browser.';
}
}

I didn't expect it to fix anything related to the problem you posted, but it is something that should be fixed. I looked at the HTML source (since I think that's where your problem is). The problem is that you have tags nested inside your table between two rows: While your nesting is correct insofar as making sure that your , , and tags don't cross each other, the tag can't be there. I see why you've done it that way - you have another form nested inside a cell within the same table (you can't nest one form within another), and your second form needs to span more than one cell or row. You need to rethink your page flow and layout so that it uses valid HTML structure. I don't know if you can combine both forms into one or if you need to split the table apart. FWIW, while validating the above solution I found an extra (empty and unclosed) tag inside the recipient table which prompted me to run your HTML through the W3C validator. It found 19 errors that keep it from validating as XHTML strict as specified in your DOCTYPE. Most of these won't cause major problems, but the 6th error reported is the cause of the problem you're having: "document type does not allow element 'form' here".

Hi Guys, Thanks for responding, will try to answer everyone in the same order. Mark W: Thanks for replying! > Since I'm relatively new to PHP I could be off on this, but I'd say yes, > $_REQUEST is wrong. I would think you'd want to use $_POST to receive > the incoming values from a form. $_REQUEST should work in this case (i think) as it works kind of like a "catch all" While $_POST just catches POST and $_GET just catches GET... $_REQUEST catches all requests be it get,post,cookie etc for testing I always use $_REQUEST.

Yep, it is correct, further down I will post the URL so you can check it out if you want. > Also, FWIW, I doubt it has anything to do with your problem but you > are assigning the same value for ID each time through the loop.

Dont have either of them dont know how to use them actually, but will have a look after this email. I did hear of firebug though not the other one. > 2.

[PHP] dynamic boxes problem... JS and PHP
Hey everyone,
A bit of a puzzle here, dont know if this is a JS problem or PHP or FF or
just me.
(My money is on the last one :p )
Here's what I am trying to do:
In a form I have a listbox with the values 1-5, and under the listbox i have a
with the id of "recips" (like so: ' +
'' +
''+ x +'. Recipient\'s name:' +
'' +
'Recipient\'s email:' +
'' +
'' +
'' +
'';
}
document.getElementById('recips').innerHTML=msg;
}
/ # End JS code
So far on the page everything is working, but when I click the submit button
this is my PHP processing script:
It shows me everything that has been submitted but NOT any of the above
dynamically made boxes values... but get this, it DOES show me all values... in
IE7 _not_ in FF (am using 2.0.0.13)
Anybody else face anything like this?
Is this a bug in FF? Is $_REQUEST wrong to catch this?
Dont know what the @#$@ to do... ANY help even a link to a site which can shed
a little light would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

[PHP] Comparing file creating dates...
Hey all,
Heres what i am trying to do:
When someone sends a message from my site, i take their ip address and make a
file with their ip address in a directory called "hash-directory", the file
looks like this: 169.34.534.243.txt
I want to make sure they cant send too many messages because of the potential
to spam, so I want to limit them to sending a message every X number of
minutes... heres what i have written (its not working for some damn reason)
# Start PHP file
if(isset($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']))
{$rem_address=$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];}
$directory_with_files="hash-directory/";
$threshold = strtotime('-2 minutes');
echo "File created on: ".$rem_address .".txt - ". date("F d Y H:i:s.",
filectime($directory_with_files.$rem_address.".txt"))."
".$file_time_details[0]."";
if (file_exists($directory_with_files.$rem_address.".txt"))
{
if (getdate(filectime($directory_with_files.$rem_address.".txt")) <
$threshold)
{echo "Please wait more than 1 minute before posting.";}
else{echo "Enough time has elapsed.";}
}
# END PHP file
Where am I going wrong?
Thanks!
Ryan
