What are you woking on right now?

PHP programmers are like normal people: they need some sharing
So, I thought of creating this thread to be like showing the status of everyone here. Let us talk about the current jobs we are working on, their status and our status! For instance:

Curret job: a classifieds site
Owner: a client (or me)
Status: 70% complete
Current task/file: programming the page where a visitor can contact the advertiser
My status: I am bored and lonely!

And then come back tomorrow to add more status! Something like that! What do you think of the idea? If it is nice then let's get started!

 

Lemme try

Curret job: An online RPG
Owner: Me
Status: 15% complete
Current task/file: Finished with registration, trying to improve it before I move further.
My status: I am born and watching my site's code makes me go MAD!

 

I'm working on something new...

Sneek a peek: www.gfxstat.com

 

born2hack: RPG is a trend now Good luck and keep updating us with your news.

EricBruggerma: It is in Deutch I guess so it is not easy to get the full image I think it is a poll that is handled as an image map instead of form? Nice idea

Curret job: a classified ads site
Owner: a client
Status: 98% complete
Current task: There are some minor issues that the client want modified. I think they will take like today and tomorrow.
My status: I just came out from a very sunny day and I can't work now. But I am excited to get the task done this night if possible!

 

PHP Screenshot class.

Just submitted to phpclasses.org :tu:

I'm going to be working on a classified site for a client over the summer.

Right now I'm trying not to kill my self making a social network.

I also want to improve my PHP site engine, but not sure how much time I'll have...

shit...I sit on the computer too much

 

Trying to improve an auto youtube script that is crap coded.

I'm starting to think my time would be better spent making a joomla component that pulls in videos using YouTubes official API.

 

CMS for real estate sites.

 

Current job: "Customer Relationship Management" software support website REWRITE adding a custom CMS
Owner: a client
Status: 80% complete
Current task/file: rewriting the XML contact form wrapper -
My status: Looking for my shotgun.

Now you are probably thinking "Why is he looking for his shotgun?". They already have an existing working website - but it's 90% static pages, the design looks like a throwback to before CSS existed, and the little php they do have to integrate into a goldmine application looks like it was written by someone who's primary programming language is visual basic.

For example:

function Decode($strValueIn) {
//Do not modify this function!
$intX = 0;
$intY = 0;
$Temp = "";
$Mod = "";
$intMod =0;
$intTemp = 0;
$ValueOut = "";
$intY = 1;
$strValueOut="";
for ($intX=1; $intX<=((strlen($strValueIn)/2)/2); $intX=$intX+1) {
    $strTemp="";
    $strMod="";
    if (($intX % 2)==0) {
      $strMod=substr(substr($strValueIn,$intY-1,4),0,2);
      $strTemp=substr(substr($strValueIn,$intY-1,4),strlen(substr($strValueIn,$intY-1,4))-(2));
    } else {
      $strMod=substr(substr($strValueIn,$intY-1,4),strlen(substr($strValueIn,$intY-1,4))-(2));
      $strTemp=substr(substr($strValueIn,$intY-1,4),0,2);
    }
    $intMod=hexdec($strMod);
    $intTemp=hexdec($strTemp);
    $intTemp=$intTemp-$intMod;
    $strValueOut=$strValueOut.chr($intTemp);
    $intY=$intY+4;
  }
  return $strValueOut;
}

Code (markup):

Is what they had for one of the core routines. For those of you who don't know what's wrong there:

No need to initialize intX, strTemp or StrMod

$Temp, $Mod, $ValueOut - all unused.

$intMod, $intTemp - unneeded variables.

Equation in the for loop does a double divide by two - double divide by two? Just divide by four... but you wouldn't need to divide by four if you used intX instead of intY and just incremented intX by four... Then change the modulo to %8...

Substring 2 of a substring 4 - WTF? Just grab two... or predeclare the variables... since you are grabbing two and the next two, just predefine those... if we increment x by two inbetween and use a while instead of a for, we can simplify even further.

... and why the hell are there parenthesis around the static number 2? GAAARRRRGH...

function myDecode($inString) {
	$result='';
	$t=0;
	while ($t<strlen($inString)) {
		$top=hexdec(substr($inString,$t,2));
		$t+=2;
		$bottom=hexdec(substr($inString,$t,2));
		$t+=2;
		$result.=chr(($t%8)==0 ? $bottom-$top : $top-$bottom);
	}
	return $result;
}

Code (markup):

My rewrite - functionally identical. Actually, that's not true. This one should execute a HELL of a lot faster. Proof some people need to stay the hell away from the keyboard.

I suppose it could be worse, they could have been attaching that bloated pile to every string as a method.

 

Well yeah There are may RPGs out there. Sadly I don't have any team. Sometimes when somethign doesnt work I am fed up and delete whole coding then realizing the mistake have to start again. But I am glad I am here at DigitalPoint forums I have got a LOT of help from here, and hopefully I will succeed this time.

Status: Coded an In-built mail system. Trying to remove vulnerabilities.

 

Danltn: Wow, quite impressive What is the URL of the class in phpclasses?

clinton: You are lucky you have a chance to improve your own website! I need a few hours to do that but I can't manage to do! And beware, social networks have so many features nowadays, you need to login to your competitors' sites everyday now

gwkg: I think a Joomla component will keep you talking to a particular slice of users: webmasters and developers but a video grabber will at least create a site, right? Good luck and think of some features to add to it after it works!

Karin_Elliott: Good luck with the site. How much is done? And are you using ajax with data entries?

 

Current job: Working on my website
Owner: me
Status: 80% but im stuck!
Current task/file: tryign to find my mod rewrite mistake and include
My status: Please help me...http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?p=8068027#post8068027

 

deathshadow: looool What a job to handle! This is one reason I don't like to accept re-code jobs, I spend most of the time trying to figure out what everything is for! Good luck, you say you are 80% done

born2hack: At least it is for you. This makes you bear more and go ahead visualizing the success you gain as the owner of the website Why do you have to delete big chunks of code? Just start with minimal features and build over them. When do you think you will finish the whole site?

 

Yes, thats a problem. There are big teams of developers working on larger sites. I think once I get over the hill of doing the basic stuff, I might introduce some of my programming buddies to the code I've built and then maybe we could add some bad ass features a lot quicker than I can alone. Working on the site is hard, I had to give up a lot of sleep in the past few months to get time to work on it. and Then I've had school lol, which is just ending.

The only thing that keeps me awake is motivation and coffee

Since I'm speaking engrish today, I hope you understand lol

Anyways, good luck to everyone with your projects

 

Thank you, clinton

I finished the modifications that were needed in the classified ads site and now I am free to move forward. So, here is my status:

Curret job: Entertainment site with a huge mail group archive - The second phase of development. This is a well known site in the region and we gained much reputation when we created it last year.
Owner: a client (who became a dear friend)
Status: I will start soon
Current task: Creating a re-design that suits the current needs of the site (he has so many advertisers now, touch wood and he wants to have tabs instead of blocks) - I know this is not PHP but I think everybody here has something to do with design
My status: Well.. I don't want to start working before I finish my real life to-do's. I will see if I can start tomorrow or the day after that. You will know when I do start!

 

Current job: Nothing
Owner: not applicable

Next task: want to suicide

Well I cant set a deadline. I have got a lot to do. It is a Pokemon RPG. First I need to add data of over 400 Pokemons. I plan to add the first season only in the first version. Then, there are thousands of attacks, to be feeded with their types, attack etc etc. I have not moved to this part though. I am trying to find a way to prevent execution of PHP, JS codes in the mail system.
