    Is there ANY "legit" way to secure URLs ?

    in Application Design

    Yes, thats what I was trying to say. Like lets say this is your page:

     

    
if ( $userstats < 150 )
{
$link = "";
}
else
{
$link = "<a href=\"google.com\"> You get this button as you exceeded 150 posts! </a>";
}

echo "Hello there. Don't have 150 posts? Too bad. $link";

     

    Now on your page if they have more than 150 posts they will be able to see the link which is google.com. If they don't, then no link. Or do you not have accses to their post count?

    Okay, I probably won't be much help but one thing for sure is you can not use Jscript for secruity. They can just disable Jscript and you are screwed.

     

    Okay, so these addresses are on your website right? One you can modifiy? If so, just use some PHP/ASP/whatever(But it must be server side.) so it removes those addresses so they don't show in the first place.

    Trek, why secure a URL? Just do something where

     

    
if ( $userpost < 150 )
{
echo "Too few posts";
die();
}

     

    Or are you meaning by something else? Just use PHP to prevent them from viewing it, not hiding the URL. As one of these PHPFreakers once said: (I'm not gonna get it exact) "Secrecy is not security.".

     

    Or if I'm completely missing what you are trying to say, could you rephrase what you mean?

    But you are making the wrong analogy. Browser:OS::Internet games:Computer game.

     

    Thats the correct one. So if I ran that game on 10 different OSes back then (Assuming they all worked), I would most likely have no difference. The same applies now with FF, IE8/7/6, and Chrome.

     

    Its alot like an OS. I'd still be using 2000 if they had support for it as it had no real advantage over XP or Vista. (Not including 64 bit and how easy it is to windows update on Vista.). But once my HD crashed and windows didn't support microsoft update, I went to XP. So between 2000, XP, and Vista it isn't anything signifcant.

     

    And at that time with 98 I never thought it was good enough. I always complained how it crashed and was quite buggy. I also didn't like Netscape as I knew it could get farther than /that/.

     

    Oh and I'm still using IE7/FF2 without any complaints.

     

    Anyways, what do you suggest should be added to a browser?

    What else could we want with a browser though? Seems like its sorta maxed.

     

    Efficency already has gotten to the point where more doesn't help.

     

    We already have block any parts of a page we want.

     

    I just can't think of anything else.

    I really don't understand the whole thing with performance for browsers.

     

    They all seem to be equally fast to me. Instant. Unless a server is lagging but then they all equally lag.

     

    Actually, browsers are almost all equal now I think about it. They all do what you want and this whole browser war is pretty stupid.

    [SOLVED] Not understanding this array.

    What doesn't work:

     


$number = "one";

$type = $array['$number'];

     

    What does work:

     

     


$type = $array['one'];

     

    The latter will work and give me what I want. The first just won't understand $number for some reason and of course I don't understand. So I want it so $number will turn into "one".

     

    Thanks.

    For my Thesis

    I think PHP needs to have some environment tax because of the damage its doing. Did you know how many hours were used by people who code in PHP? Those hours = breathing, which equals global damage and those hours could be used as planting plants.

    Okay, that was pretty funny, regardless of it being pug-hate speech.

     

     

    But we all know how pop-eyes goes...The evil bully (Maq), who has black hair and is always trying to steal that woman and he tries to beat up pop-eye (Puggy), but in the end, puggy will eat some lettuce and smack, pow!
