PFMaBiSmAd Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 Along those same lines. Your question is actually beyond the scope and type of help that a forum can provide in the few hundred words that could be given in a reply. This is the subheading of this forum - Do you need help with some code you wrote? If the scope of your question concerns a specific error or problem with your code or with a specific question about what you want to do (a specific question about a contest script would be something like, how do I design a mysql table so that I can detect and prevent duplicate entries by the same person...), then a forum would be able to help you. For a broad question like - I would like to code a __________ (insert name of any application) but i don't know how, you are going to be disappointed with the replies because, except for the simplest applications, we cannot provide information that addresses your level of experience and with enough details that it will actually do you any good.

rille95 Posted October 13, 2009 Author Share Posted October 13, 2009 Actually the only thing i need help with is how to know when the contest ends. Like i set the contest to last for a week and the one that got most referrals during that time wins. Could i get code example of that?

mikesta707 Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 you can get the time for now, and the time for a week later like so $now = time(); $weekLater = strtotime("+1 week"); now its just a matter of using these values along with some sort of data base to get a contest winner Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/177530-help-with-contest-script/#findComment-936173 Share on other sites More sharing options...
