The theory (your post) sounds exciting. So, I clicked on the link, and wow. The design is very user friendly :) All i can say, you've hit all the nails on the head :) -sniko Edit. You have a spelling error - "Join our Mailling List" The Mailling part :)

"Like" Paul Evans Although, if your happy with it, that's all that matters.

I see where you could be going wrong as (No offence intended) the header is a little to much and 'structured' as such. But take Kieran-R's advice :) -sniko

LOL at the Rage

Good try with the updating....But you don't global anything in a if() statement. I would go about doing this with the following   if($_GET['DID'] == $tr['fr_topicid']) { echo "you already rated this post"; } else { return functionName(); } function functionName() { global $ir, $userid, $h, $db; $fr = $db->query("SELECT fr_userid, fr_topicid, fr_dislike FROM forum_rating WHERE fr_userid ={$ir['userid']}"); $tr = $db->fetch_row($fr); if($ir['userid'] == $_GET['fr_userid'] || $tr['fr_dislike']==1) {echo "you already rated this post";} else { $p = $db->query("SELECT ft_id, ft_name FROM forum_topics WHERE ft_id = ".$_GET['DID']); $r = $db->fetch_row($p); echo "You have disliked the topic"; $db->query("UPDATE forum_topics SET ft_dislike=ft_dislike+1 WHERE ft_id={$r['ft_id']}"); $db->query("INSERT INTO forum_rating VALUES('{$ir['userid']}','{$r['ft_id']}',' 0',' 1')"); } }   Although the function is un-needed, i hope it gives you the basic understanding of them :)

When i try and install the QapTcha the slider isn't their, neither when I download the source and view the index file. Please could I possibly have some pointers? Thanks -sniko

Ah yea, thanks for that Zu.

Hmm yea, the target audience is somewhat a 'stakeholder' in deciding on what method to adopt. I think before proceeding with any method, ill do some research and wait for more replies, but maybe implement a few together, im not so sure. Anyway, thanks for the reply Djk -sniko

I've never thought of those methods. Anyway, thanks for your input Djk. -sniko

Hey, I need your input (professional or novice) on using different verification methods. What's a verification method? A system in which websites use to 'secure' their websites from bots to help prevent some kind of attack. For example. Mccodes varification method - Capatcha. Alternative Methods * Capatcha A challenge response system to verify the response is not computer driven * Mathematical Response A simple, yet affective system, in which a random generated mathematical sum is given to the user, if answered correctly, they are validated. * Image Response An simple image is presented to the user, they have a few options and they need to select what the image is. * Character Selection A little like Lloyds TSB method, in which a string is presented to the user, which consists of x amount of characters, and they need to enter, for arguments sake, the 3rd, 5th and 10th character. * I made some on MS Paint, I hope you get the idea If all were programmed with sensible security precautions such as images weren't named as what they actually are, which do you think will be most effective and why? Thanks for reading -sniko

PHP version 5.2.14 -sniko

Thanks for the replies. Even if they went off topic - i learnt a bit. -sniko

Although there are alternatives, I think the end product will be a good feature to add into any game. War_Hero - all the best, and good luck. -sniko

Hey, Thanks for the responses @Danger Boy Basically, as you can see from the screenshots, that is the viewHouse feature. Where you can view the house (picture) and some statistics. @The Spirit Thank you very much @Paddy Ah, yea. Thanks for posting it up as well. I included a permalink to your reply, so people can go straight to it :) @Zan The link only shows if you have enough money and you aren't going down the house chain @Maniak Thank you. -sniko

[align=center][/align] Within the .zip file included, you will receive the modified estate agent file and the same instructions as below. DOWNLOAD .ZIP HERE Instructions You need to create a new directory called housepic You need to upload PNG versions of the house picture under the name of it in the database Some Screenshots ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ * The pictures where found from google - They do not belong to me Any queries/help please reply. Thanks -sniko

Ah. Yea that makes more sense lol

Relook at line 38, a spelling error :) -sniko

Research into IF() statements. For example   if($ir['user_level'] == 2) //Admin { $username = "<font color='#FF0000'>{$ir['username']}</font>"; //Red Username if Admin } echo "[b]{$username}[/b]";   -sniko

You need to check whether the "Pick (0-36)" in the roulette feature is numeric. I put in "[]" http://v203.mccodes.com/roulette.php?bet=5&number=%22%5B%5D%22&tresde=425 And it still continued. Not really a bug but a glitch?

@Dominion - Sorry for that use of language, no offence intended, and i shall keep away from using that word in the future. @Dayo - Never thought of that side, thanks for reminding me about that issue. I also agree with Pauls' last comment -sniko

Thanks Paul. Also, why can people just be happy that the McCodes team are actually back and updating their scripts, rather than just flame at them, it's like, you aren't happy because its not secure, but then again, once they have/in the process of securing it, your not happy. So, either way, your acting like a dumb mofo, why are you not happy when its secure, because you want it to be secure, but, still, your flame once it is. Gay much. Just my view, not to be taken to heart, apart from, be happy that they are trying/succeeding to secure their scripts. -sniko

Paul, i agree BUT i suggested those things for them to fix, not as hacks, but primarily as bugs, as it is a demo of the patch, they would need to sort some of the things out, for example the admin account is banned, how will they demo the admin if they cannot do anything with it... see where im coming from? I agree with Paul that mccodes did a good job - so, well done to them. -sniko

Hold ALT and drag the mouse :) -sniko

Dabomstew "ID 3 has no name: Not sure about this." If that meant, you didn't know what i meant, Here are a few examples; His Profile Hall Of Fame Userlist Otherwise, I think you meant (and most probably did mean) Your not sure how that managed to do that, therefore, ask the person who made the account. -sniko

Possible things to fix;   I can mail myself If i input "-1 or 1=1--" (without quotes) on the black list it doesn't submit Admin is banned By himself [*]ID 3 has no name [*]I can delete events, which doesn't belong to me nor exist
