Since I launched the 110MB Server Status, I have been working on some features...

So here they are:
- Report Viewer, which logs ups and downs of all servers, and says when they went down and when (and if) they came back up
- The new API is released, a bit different then the old one...
At the URL http://northsalemcrew.net/110mb_status/api/api.php you get a bunch of funky code, get it, and use the PHP function unserialize which will turn it into an array, however, if you want to cut down on the size so it can transfer faster, add ?encoding=gz to the end, and it with gzcompress the string, once downloaded to your server, use gzuncompress(), and use unserialize, and there you have it!

And yes, there is a JSON encoded one too... add ?type=json to the end of api.php and it will give a JSON encoded string, now if you want that encoded with gzip, add &encoding=gz and it will do the same
- 110MB Server Status Image updated!

Enjoy!

I am proud to finally announce the new arrival of the brand new 110MB Server Status! It has that new car smell

New features include:
- Now Monitors how many people are currently on FTP
- Name Server Status Added
- What box is your site on?
- Loads a LOT faster
- Looks a lot better

In a little bit (after I post this) the old page will redirect to the new one. As of now, the old image is dead, same with the API... It of course will still show and return details and such, but it is no longer updated.

An API and Image will available for this server status sometime this week.

Enjoy!

I am completely coded the new 110MB Server Status backend, it is so much more well organized, and a lot easier to use

Now it calculates the uptime percentage when the cron is ran, so no matter what, it will load fast.

I am going to bed, but I will implement this tomorrow

110MB is going to soon be opening registration on another server, Box16 this new box is located in Canada.

I have just added Box16 to the 110MB Status page.

As you may notice, it loads rather slow Cause? You would run slow if you had a record table or 557,328 D:

So, I am emptying out the table to about 100,000 records, DONE! It now loads much faster, however I am currently recoding it, and this time I really am and it will be more organized and a lot better handled and even easier to add Boxes

I am currently coding a new project that I will announce sometime soon. And I was in need of removing HTML Entities from a given string, so I made one...

So I thought I would share I am not sure how fool proof this is, but works well. Recursion FTW!


function remEntities($str) {
  if(substr_count($str, '&') && substr_count($str, ';')) {
    # Where is the amper thingy?
    $amp_pos = strpos($str, '&');
    # Where is the ;?
    $semi_pos = strpos($str, ';');
    # Only if the ; is after the &
    if($semi_pos > $amp_pos) {
      # Ok... must be an HTML entity? Try to remove
      $tmp = substr($str, 0, $amp_pos);
      $tmp = $tmp. substr($str, $semi_pos + 1, strlen($str));
      $str = $tmp;
      # Another entity in it? O.o
      if(substr_count($str, '&') && substr_count($str, ';'))
        $str = remEntities($tmp);
    }
  }
  return $str;
}

Enjoy! Call on by remEntities(STR); and will remove HTML entities as best as it can, recursively!

I am going to be working on the Caching Class, this next release will be version 1.0!

What will be new?
- It will have 3 ways to cache! MySQL, SQLite or file based!
- Will be completely recoded from scratch
- You can store private data, or public
- Will no longer require PHP Session ID's, it will be self handled (Undecided)

So pay be paying attention to see when its released

I am creating a blogging system called xBlog. I started it yesterday, and it is a Google Code Project. Sadly in the beginning I had planned for it to work with MySQL and SQLite, but SQLite and MySQL just can't go together easily without major and complicated fixes with SQLite...

So I have decided to drop that, and it will use only MySQL. I hope to one day include SQLite support, but not now...

xBlog is a Google Code project, and I am currently working on a site for xBlog which can be seen here

Lol. I just thought I would allow everyone to see the source of txtDB, I will upload it every so often and you can see it

My SVN-sort-of-thing can be viewed here: http://files.mschat.net/txtDB/, and it will include the rough date of when it was uploaded Looks like there is currently one up
