I'm on my knees begging (PHP stats related)

would you be so kind as to paste the php code pls, I understand the basics, but would like to see how you have done it,

If there was a way to get the number automatically.. like lots of other sites seem to then there would be no need for the input file...

You're polling Berkeley for your results every 60 seconds :confused: :eek:

Seems a bit often to me. If you're doing that, then there's very little point in caching your wu count in a file imho.

All my db scripts update every 15 mins, and I feel guilty because of that :p
 
TrUz, please can you edit the PHP script to correct that. I wouldn't want people using your script verbatim and not noticing this.

Usually, updating once an hour is OK, unless you return lots of results, but once every fifteen minutes is OK.

And another little tip:

After the lines
Code: 
Header("Content-type: image/jpeg");
and
Code: 
Header("Content-type: image/png");
add the line
Code: 
Header("Expires: " . gmdate("D, d M Y H:i:s", time() + 900) . " GMT");
This cuts your bandwidth usage by about 50%.

Absolutely, and also implement the change suggested by Mark G. If you do both, not only will your own bandwidth use be significantly cut, but so will Berkeley's.
 
TrUz, can I make a small suggestion about your initial script post?

Because of the colouration of the OcUK Forums the PHP code is very difficult to read in the post. If you change the PHP & /PHP tags to QUOTE & /QUOTE it makes it much easier to read :)
