Joe: could you get on IRC as soon as possible dude, i need to ask u a question! o_o
Blazer: I would like to see the backend of your system, how it is created... i know you posted this
JOURNAL SCRIPT STATS:
- Lines of PHP/MYSQL: 129
- Lines of HTML: 371
- Time Taken: 12 Hours+
- Cans of Pop drank: 15+
- Average time until going to bed: 2AM
Well, i can tell you mine
- Lines of PHP/MySQL: Unknown (I dont have my PHP API installed atm, the only text editor i have is notepad, and i dont fancy my chances of counting lines one by one - i will post this soon)
- Total size, including admin script = 39.4Kb
- Time taken: ~1 week
- Cans of coke: None, because i drank them all last week
- Average time until going to bed: I DIDNT SLEEP ;(
The system i use is very different to yours, and needs alot of fine tuning, but overall, i am very happy with it, since it is my first true mysql/php script
Also, my script will soon be either distributed as freeware, @ Sourceforge.Net or i will sell it for around $5 US, and provide the users with updates/upgrades. My script has a config.inc file, which contains the following (and more, but i have excluded some stuff for privacy reasons)
$page_title = "ESF Dev Journals";
$site_name = "Earth's Special Forces";
$db_server = "localhost";
$db_name = "journals";
$db_pass = "";
$db_user = "root";
$body_bgcolor = "#000000";
$body_text = "#FFFFFF";
$body_link = "#FFFFFF";
$body_vlink = "#FFFFFF";
$body_alink = "#FFFFFF";
$body_font = "Verdana";
$body_font_size = "10px";
$body_text_decoration = "none";
$body_hover_colour ="#00CCFF";
$body_hover_decoration = "none";
$error_msg_background_colour = "#FF0000";
simply change one of those, and it changes the way each page is displayed
My php code needs a little optimising, aka i have used a few functons twice, and stuff like that, so i need to go back in and fix that up -> but expect to see it operational on the ESF site within the next 24hrs
