Hello,
I'm writing a php irc bot. I've come up to the situation where I need a
timer for processing different data in a "special" way. I've searched the
archive of the list but I didn't found nothing helpful (I can't use
JavaScript here, neither cron).
If I use for(;;) or sleep(); the whole scrip

1) Javascript is your only hope to disable clicking through, as suggested
by the other responders.
2) It can still be defeated. How importan

I am trying to create a timer tha would prevent someone from
clicking submit until the timer reaches zero.
THe reason is to keep an individual on a page for a certain
amount of time.
Does anyone know the best way to do this?
PHP? Javascript?
Any examples?

Yeah, I think so, but it'd be worth the effort to just learn cron. You
can use set_time_limit() to zero and run your

OK.. probably a easy thing, but I am complicating it too much. Here is
what I am
trying to accomplish.
Using PHP4.0.2 and PostgreSQL 7.1.
I am creating a time tracking system where a user, based on their login,
gets a list
of open projects. I have clientid, projectid, description, estimate

Not sure how to go about setting up a function to parse the date, hour,
minutes, seconds, take the seconds and register them in a session var, then
do a check on the session var (seconds) vs. the seconds var + 5*60 (or 5

My back is aganist the wall with this one, I have to create a timer .
What happens is admin will enter a time say 2 hours in the future this
time will be stored in a db as a time stamp
then the current time and the timestamp from the db are subtracted from one
another and the result is shown
I'm guessing it's either for a Quiz script or an Auction script.
If you want to make it easy on yourself, use a database to store the
starting time (when the timer "starts") and what time the test/auction
should end. When someome makes a submission, get the time stored in the
database and see if
there is no sure way, but using cookies/sessions you can make something that will
*work* . assign the user a session_id, every time the user makes an entry add a value
to the db,
session_id = $SessionID
next_time = time() + 120
every time you make an entry, check to make sure that next_time <
I need to have a time running and after a certain time it will not allow
you to submit anything else, on top of that if someone makes an entry with
less than 2 minutes to go the time must be extended by 5 minutes.
I really am at a loss how to do this.
Can it be done.
TIA
George
