Hey All,

Sorta like "Jack and the Bean Stalk", this site just keeps growing and growing and growing. But, it's getting to the point where it is difficult for just one person to maintain everything and keep everything up-to-date in a timely manner. So, if you are a web programmer (not really a designer) and would like to help out with some site sections, fill out and submit this programmers sign-up form. Your help is greatly appreciated!

In addition to regular HTML, the site currently uses PHP (http://www.php.net) as the main site scripting language and MySQL (http://www.mysql.com) as the database. Currently, the only prefabricated chunk of code used on the site is the forum (http://www.phpbb.com). If you have web programming skills and would like to help out, please fill out and submit the following form.

Phade.

I think you would have a better chance if you were using html.Of course only because i know html, to bad this wasn't happening in 3 months once i finish learning html im going to start PHP but i don't know how long it will take me to finish html i know a lot.Good Luck!!!!

You can't do dynamic content in plain HTML. .org would be fairly boring if it weren't dynamic.

not only that.. the number of pages that would have to be made would be massive.. over 50k members and about 30+ pages... now work that out.. then there is the fact new members join every hour or so..

html is a waste of time these days.. I'm trying to learn php for my site...

<ul><li>2006 anime and non-anime listings<li>4147 musical artists<li>120,622 banner ad votes<li>1,292 banners<li>29,163 journal entries<li>69,899 link problems <li>84747 members<li>30,333 opinions<li>185,509 current forum postings<li>9,991 songs<li>60,114 votes on the star scale<li>3,218 studios<li>19,837 videos</ul>

Overall, the .org database contains 7,750,789 rows of data. And I'm sure its grown by the time I manage to hit "Submit"

I didn't know that shitt, besides i was only talking about the amount of people who know it, more people know html than php.

<ul><li>69,899 link problems </ul>

Though, to be fair, aren't most of those related to links posted by members to offsite pages/files from their video page?

[Phade]

Hey jonmartensen,

Yeah, those problems are from video creators putting in bad links or just letting the links get old. The site has no direct control over the target of those links. Hmmmm, a script to detect 404s would be cool...

This mod from phpbb.com detects if a remote Avatar works before displaying it. (it displays no Avatar instead of a red X if it can't be found/loaded) Anyways, maybe the code for detecting broken links is similiar?

try something like this...(not saying this is gonna be perfect)

Code: Select all

<?php
if(getimagesize("link/to/img/picture.jpg" == "0"){
echo "<img src="link/to/img/picture.jpg"";
}
else{}
?>
