Why would anyone use my services over googles? Well, for starters, 20% commission instead of the 40% - 70% google keeps from its publishers! Update: The site is live and using real money! Publishers are posting ads, and advertisers are buying. Join the fun.

Absolutely. I think I spend more time sanitizing data and implementing other security methods than I spend on writing the useful part of programs. I think I'm up to about 20 beta testers now. And I've spent the last week fixing some minor loop holes, and adding some site improvements. I'm still accepting beta testers if you want to use the site. It helps me out a ton to see how people are using the site.

Well, he did something strange, because he can edit the values of the html drop down menus, and submit options that aren't listed. I have also seen spam bots do this to me, too. For example, if I have a "contact us" form, with drop down values "Urgent", "Medium", and "Low" priority. The spam bot will come in and SOMEHOW select "Viagra Priority"! LOL. How the heck can you edit the values of an HTML form before submitting it? Thankfully, my PHP checks the values submitted first, but you can still alter the html somehow.

Oh really? and it just saves to your temp internet files and executes?

But, how do YOU as a user, edit my html code and have it execute how you want?

http://www.TextAdMarket.com The site is PHP/mySQL based. I would appreciate some help with security testing, feedback on site look & feel, and would really really like to get some more people beta testing the site's services. You can poke around on the site, but if you want to really see what it does, you will need an account. PM me with the email address you want to register with, and I'll give you a beta tester's code. Tester's get $25 ad credit to play around with. I need feedback!

Interesting...according to this site, the time() function is ALWAYS in GMT time. Then you use the date() functions to set the timezone. http://keithdevens.com/weblog/archive/2004/Jul/28/Times.PHP.MySQL Can someone confirm I am understanding this correctly?

That's what I was thinking too, but I get the same timestamp when I run the following functions with time(); date_default_timezone_set("GMT"); date_default_timezone_set("America/Los_Angeles"); Among others...all the same timestamp. I have PHP 5 enabled, too.

Does the PHP5 function date_default_timezone_set() affect timestamps? Such as when doing time();

o, i have learned something new today. How do you edit a drop down menu? also, try it now...i think i have a patch for that.

Yes, purchase was spelled wrong, but amazingly it was spelled wrong elsewhere, too, so the code didn't screw up! haha, i fixed it. For the selling page, where u edited the color choices, how did you edit the color choices to produce an error?

What page was that on, and how did you get that?

Thanks again for testing out the URLs on my site. I've patch the issue with html tags being accepted. I've also sanitized the $_GET variables you found to display errors with bad input. Would anybody like to test the site out as a "pretend customer"? I'll deposit however much credit you need into your account to give the site a full test. I want some folks to buy and sells ads on the site. Send me a PM if you are interested! Thanks!

haku, how do u send mail through PHP by using the smtp stuff?

textadmarket.com is my domain. Is that something my host can do for me?

Also, what is all this about SMTP authentication that I'm reading? I haven't had to enter any smtp info into my code with mail()

I've been using the mail() function in php to send all of my site emails, but they ALWAYS 100% get junked in a spam folder. I've done some research and it looks like SwiftMailer is a good alternative. Has anyone used swiftmailer, is it easy? Also, I'm on a shared host, so is this something I can install myself? Thanks

thank you thank you thank you!! I've been working furiously for the past 2 days to patch my code. I'll have some more questions for you tomorrow. I'd like to get some folks on here to just use the AD service. Buy and Sell Ads. I'm giving $25 free AD Credit to beta testers so you can buy ads and help me test the performance of the site.

Well, at least your computer didn't tell you "We have detected you are using a Macintosh. These updates are not available for your OS." I got that message from the update.microsoft.com website when I was running my weekly XP patches. And, I'm using XP SP 2.....I dont even own a mac. (and, no, it wasn't on april 1st)

so many stupid mistakes. Usually just not keeping track of all the ' and "

I hate looking through the classifieds section of the newspaper and selling all .NET jobs.

Well, I know ASP is definitely worth about 15% more than PHP in terms of yearly salary.

I can't say calculus has helped me with any PHP projects, but it was definitely the most interesting subject in high school, in my opinion.
