Make your own PHP adoptables system

That's what you expect to be in there. But what actually ends up there? Print it out with echo(), then use the trick of opening the resulting corrupt image in notepad to see the results.

While you're at it, PM me the code you're using.. .

I can't save the image because it doesn't display any image if I echo those variables. o_O
And if I try it on Internet Explorer I can't save the image...

Works just fine if you use Firefox, just go directly to the URL of the image and save the broken page that results.

Everything seems to be right. This is the line:

1250880051<br>3971<br>0<br><br>777<br>2246400<br>‰PNG

I inserted <br>s to isolate the single numbers. The first is the adoption date, the second the ID, the third time()-$row[1] ($row[1] is the adoption date), 777 is $age['date'] for the child and 2246400 is the $age['date'] for the adult. Everything is right. Since time() is the same as the adoption date it's right that it's 0. And the adoption date also seems fine to me.

I don't want to bother you too much, so I'll just try to solve it myself o_O It's a complete mystery to me but well. Maybe I'm doing something wrong... I need to think *lol*

Time would only be the same as the adoption date in the first second after the pet was adopted. Surely that can't be the case here? If you PM me your code I'll definitely be able to spot the problem.

I think I found the error. Where should I put the code to save the date so that it doesn't create a new adoptable the instant the image is refreshed? And how do I get access to the ID then? Because if I put the code on adopt.php I can't use the variable for the ID in simple.php... But when I put the code in adopttools or simple.php it always creates a new adoptable when I refresh.

Is there a code to only make the script run once?

EDIT: I did it *_* Everything works =3 Now I only need to find out how to encrypt and decrypt the id so that nobody can cheat. *_*
Or I'll just make that script which creates the owner's name on the image.

How could you cheat? Isn't all of the information about the pet on the server except for its ID number?

Well, not right now. I'm too lazy to do everything at once (I tried to make them grow up after a set amount of days first), but you're right. Once everything is stored in the database nobody could cheat. Why didn't I think of that? ^^°

Okay, cool

[Dorumon]

Is there a simpler way to do PHP adoptable systems?

No
