I am Gaurav Saparia,
I have a problem.
using PHP I want to read a file from http://www.something.com/abc.htm and store it in database as a string. thats ok
but some links like href=/abc/xyz.php should automatically replaced by href=http://www.something.com/abc/xyz.php same way path of image should start from http://.

If any body have an idea.

thanks

Hi, Guys,

I would like to see code for uploading files from client end using PHP. But after uploading file, the file name should not change.

RGDS.

it'll only come into play if/when you use the "recently updated" bit of code on your site. It'll put that ** next to a blog that's listed as one of the last 100 updated blogs on weblogs.com when you load the page with the links.

I have never seen this code:

$itsNew = " **";

do anything. Is there something I am doing wrong?

Totally love this script, and I have some suggestions for next releases:
-ability to choose the target of the links (I always prefer mine to open in new windows)
-ability to choose different "spacers" for different lists…I use them for several purposes, and now I constantly have to edit the html by hand to change the spacers (the little :: ) to different things for different lists.
You did a great job on the script so far though!

There's a few known bugs with this version – I'll try to fix them in the next revision – hopefully in a few days.

Here's the bugs I have so far:
1) disallow creation of "blank" lists.
2) (unset array in getcode) so if multiple random lists are being included on one page, arrays don't merge.
3) Increase width of form fields
4) Correct headline on "remove a list" page.

Jenn helped me fix this promptly and now the script is working perfectly!! I just have one possible idea for a feature: link descriptions – non-linked text that describes the link (and having that text only appear on full link pages, not the randomized link page). Not a "necessary" feature, but it would definitely make this script cooler Thanks a TON for such an awesome script and for all of your help!!

I just tried putting the trailing slash as well and I still get the error.

When I actually specify linkfiles.php in that path, it seems to work fine until I add a list. Then, I start getting weird errors, like the second warning above. When I looked at the linkfiles.php file (after successfully adding a list), it had a blank line and then the name of the list file I had added. (Might the blank line be messing something up?)

ste – that path should not include that linkfiles.php in the path… it just needs to point to the directory where your link file(s) are.

I'm guessing based on the error – this is what you need to put there:
/home/domain/public_html/folder/
*make sure you include that last slash!
