copied!<p>I agree with Olafur, but alternatively if you haven't got access to a database you could use the server's file system to save the stats of an URL in a combined config/log file, like a comma-delimited file. Let's say you have a file like this:</p> <pre><code>rapidshare.com,You want to download the file,0,0 megaupload.com,Please enter,0,0 megashares.com,Filename:,0,0 </code></pre> <p>The four fields are 'URL', 'text to check for', 'last check result' and 'has mail been sent'. The code could be something like this:</p> <pre><code>$file = "myfile.txt"; // open the file $fh = fopen($filename, "r"); // read the full file contents into a string $contents = fread($fh, filesize($file)); // close the file fclose($fh); // split the string into an array of lines $lines = split("\n", $contents); // split each line into its fields for processing $i = 0; foreach ($lines as $line) { $checkarray[$i] = split(",", $line); $i++; } </code></pre> <p>Now you can cycle through the array and do whatever you want, writing back the information including the 'mail sent' status field as you go along. Use $fields[0] for the URL, $fields[1] for the text to check for, and you can read the last status with $fields[2] en the 'mail sent' status with $fields[3].</p> <pre><code>foreach($checkarray as $fields) { // insert code to do your checks here ... // write back the results $fh = fopen($filename, "w"); fwrite($fh, $fields[0] . "," . $fields[1] . "," . $working . "," . $mailsent . "\n"; fclose($fh); } </code></pre> <p>Hope this helps you on your way.</p>
