So, I've been writing a...search engine lets say. For some wierd reason of understanding the project, I've writed it in plain php, no frameworks, not shortcuts or so... While doing that, I been thinking after I finish the core point of it, I will rewrite it into some framework, eather some third party fw or I will write my own one. The time passed, I've been hardcoding even after I finished the whole core structure and even came to a point of finalization, even with css & js. So now, gess what? I whant to rewrite it in some framework. Crazy me. So the questions are: 1. Should I use some third framework like codeigniter or start by writing my own? 2. If i should get some third, which one? 3. Which one does work best with praseing json data and mainly praseing with cUrl? Most of anwsers I know, but I whana hear others opinion... mabey mine changes! Thanks for reading!

pff, not really sure what you whant but something like this could help //Get the document in a string $document = file_get_contents("sample.rtf",true); //translate into these entities $htmlCode = htmlentities($document); //print it out (exp.) echo $htmlCode;

Yea it's acceptable, I don't whana act a smartass but you could tweek it abit for changeing stuff later in it For example, you can make you'r self or others who work or will work with you, a life easyer later on by flexible image changeing, same you can do with 'width' or 'alt'. class onlineStat{ public function runOnlineStatus($lastActivity,$onlineImg,$idleImg,$offlineImg){ //Set the time $minutesOnline = $this->setTime($lastActivity); if ($minutesOnline < 15){ $indicator = $this->online($onlineImg); } else if ($minutesOnline < 30){ $indicator = $this->idle($idleImg); } else{ $indicator = $this->offline($offlineImg); } return $indicator; } // time unix public function setTime($lastActivity){ $minutesOnline = (time() - strtotime($lastActivity))/60; return $minutesOnline; } // set images for statuses public function online($img){ $indicator = '<img src="images/'.$img.'" width="10" alt="Member Online" /><br />'; return $indicator; } public function idle($img){ $indicator = '<img src="images/'.$img.'" width="10" alt="Member Online" /><br />'; return $indicator; } public function offline($img){ $indicator = '<img src="images/'.$img.'" width="10" alt="Member Online" /><br />'; return $indicator; } } /** So now you can go like this in you'r html */ // Your last activity string $lastActivity; //Run the class $onlineStatus = new onlineStat; //set Images $onlineImg = "Light_Green_10.png"; $idleImg = "Light_Yellow_10.png"; $offlineImg = "Light_Gray_10.png"; //get Indicator $indicator = $onlineStatus->runOnlineStatus($lastActivity,$onlineImg,$idleImg,$offlineImg); Hope it helps
