Re: Shafted by LunarPages Don't use so many resources then? :\ If there's much bigger sites running on shared servers fine, you can't just run screaming at the host

Re: Hmm this section needs something Mine updates when they visit the profiles page, but I might change it, thats the only way I have it now. Instead of updating almost the entire table of players, it just gets the one that a) is being viewed by a profile and b) actually has less health/is in hosp. So far I haven't noticed anything, but its relatively small-scale, so we'll have to see how it works out in a bigger game.

Re: stats cap does number_format($number) work? :\

Re: Hmm this section needs something Yeah, my comments are usually huge in production, when i upload though, I summarize it :P, and I use salt plus a custom hashing function usually :P Geez dont quote me on that I wrote it like as I went when I was bored one night :P

Re: Converting V1 mods to V2 I lol'd ^

Re: Refresh Blocker Session variable and a URL variable

MySQL 1. Use the COUNT modifier to check the table headers, and return the number of entries, than loading the whole info into an array and using mysql_num_rows() 2. Always use MySQL to do simple maths, such as totals, averages. It has built in functions just for this 3. Never load more than you need. If you only need the users name, don't do SELECT * FROM users, just select the name 4. Don't cram your table with useless columns. Having two columns for energy isn't necessary. Use one, have it as '50:100' (50% energy), and use PHP's explode() function to get the two values 5. If, like step 4, you use this a lot, use MySQL's SUBSTRING_INDEX function to do things such as finding users with only 40 energy 6. Reduce your server load by optimizing your queries, and save money on that dedicated server! 7. ALWAYS construct your own database class, and time your queries. You can use microtime() before and after your mysql_query() function, to see how long the query took. Try and record as much info as possible to be able to optimize further 8. As I said, ALWAYS check ALL input into the database 9. Don't use values such as 5 if you're checking something like days old, use the timestamp recorded when they sign up to compare it to the current time, and save another column 10. Don't store everything in the database. Some things, like IP bans can be stored in files, same as other things like if the game is shut down. Doing this reduces the amount of queries to the MySQL server, even if they aren't logged in. Similarly, you can store announcements etc in a text file, saving db calls on the login pages. And now i'll go die for bbcode abuse

Some fun! 1. Use ctype_digit() to validate your input when you need to make sure they only enter numbers 2. Always create custom functions for things that are repeated often, such as displaying or calculating things 3. Always check any input in the database first, NEVER insert any unchecked data 4. NEVER allow users to externally host their pictures. Even checking the extension of the file does nothing, use file_get_contents and preg_match() to ensure that the picture isn't disguised as a PHP file 5. NEVER allow users to use html anywhere. There's about ten different ways to insert javascript via html, which isn't too fun if they know what they're doing. 6. Decide whether to whitelist of blacklist: a whitelist checks any input, and if it isn't in a pre-defined array (or however you decided to check it), it refuses. A blacklist simple refuses certain pre-defined words, and accepts all others. 7. NEVER totally trust any form data, even radio fields, checkboxes, or even hidden fields. They can all be tampered with 8. Try to stay away from using the md5 hash. Its huge use has lead to massive databases of all possible combinations. Develop your own function, accepts a string, uses various string functions (substr, str_repeat, str_shuffle) and other algorithms (sha1) or multiple. 9. NEVER use crons that run every single minute. Nearly every function that uses a cron can be replaced entirely by utilizing and calculating different timestamps. I completely removed the energy refill, stamina refill, jail/hosp times, days old etc crons from my game by converting. 10. Comment your code! If you can't go back in 2 weeks and instantly know what piece of code does what, you've failed. Comments are all to you, so don't be against writing notes, having 14-line comment blocks or commenting even the smallest things

Re: right hand side main menu why do you guess at random things to make it work :| aligning it to the right is basic html, and since (i think) its tabled, you'll have to move the entire content into the left table cell, and the menu to the right. and how can you vertically align something to the right?
