harville85 Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Hello, there is a free script offered at bidintel.com that will count bids placed on penny auctions. There's nothing wrong with this, as you could manually count them yourself if you chose to. It works great, but there is an issue I have. You can spend hours watching a bid take place using the code before you jump in with your bids. The problem I have is that info you collect while watching is available to anyone else using the same script. So If I've been watching for an hour counting bids, and someone else just got there, they could easily retrieve all the data I've collected as soon as they enter. I would like to be able to take the code, remove the part that transmits my collected data, but keep the part that retrieves data from other bidintel users. I was going to ask the creators of the script to change this, but their contact email does not work. It seems that there is a php script in there that creates an html file for each time a new window is opened and I don't know how to create this on my own. Any help would be appreciated, and if you choose, could work well for you too. Please let me know if anyone would like to help. Thanks.
