I'm trying to make a clone of Bored.com. Anyone know of a decent all-in-one script?

I'm so sorry in Advance. I am somewhat of a PHP newB. I can read most of it and dismantle some, but the last post was a bit confusing. Attached is a zip of all the files in this problem. Could you take a look and tell me in detail how to use what was just posted? Thanks, and again sorry. If you don't want to download the zip, I'll try to do my best in describing how this currently works. Under my HTTPDOCS folder I have two folders. phpfundthermo (this is the processing script and images for the thermometer) and replace (this houses the html php file with the instance of the thermometer, and the file with the form to update it.) Contents of phpfundthermo folder: burst.jpg therm.jpg thermbar.jpg thermo.php <? error_reporting(7); // Only report errors Header("Content-Type: image/jpeg"); function code2utf($num){ //Returns the utf string corresponding to the unicode value //courtesy - romans@void.lv if($num<128)return chr($num); if($num<2048)return chr(($num>>6)+192).chr(($num&63)+128); if($num<65536)return chr(($num>>12)+224).chr((($num>>6)&63)+128).chr(($num&63)+128); if($num<2097152)return chr(($num>>18)+240).chr((($num>>12)&63)+128).chr((($num>>6)&63)+128). chr(($num&63)+128); return ''; } #$font = "/usr/local/fonts/ttf/arial.ttf"; $font = "c:/windows/fonts/georgia.ttf"; $unit = ($HTTP_GET_VARS['unit']) ? $HTTP_GET_VARS['unit'] : 36; // ascii 36 = $ $t_unit = ($unit == 'none') ?

Correct, although I do have a couple databases set up, I don't have one for the php script in question. I found a script for a thermometer, and it works great, but the variables need to be typed in the referencing code on the html page it's displayed on. My client doesn't know html or php, so I want to make a form for them to update it without having to call me all the time.

Hello everyone, I have an HTML file with this piece of code: <img src='/phpfundthermo/thermo.php?max=3000&current=1300'> What this code does is invoke the file thermo.php and sets variables "max" and "current", effectivley displaying a thermometer that is about 1/3 full. What I would like to know is, how can I build a form that will replace whatever current equals. Right now it equals 1300. I could use "find and replace" but what if I don't remember what the current variable currently equals? Is there a way that I can build a form that would search for that variable and replace it with what I type in the form?

Is there anybody out there that know's what this is???? Please.

Hey All, I'm building a site, and my client want's a rotating product area like shown in the right side of this page http://www.proflowers.com It reminds me of MSN's recent news rotator. Does anyone know of a PHP script that would help generate something like this? Thanks, Dave
