Angel_Gabriel Posted February 6, 2006 Share Posted February 6, 2006 I was wondering if there was some sort of Code (HTML, PHP etc.) that allowed me to display a number (i.e$200) and then increase the number by a certain amount every 24 Hours (So after a day it would increase to $300 and then $400 etc.). Anybody who could help me with this would be thanked greatly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Svip Posted February 6, 2006 Share Posted February 6, 2006 You mean like 'addition' also known as '+'? But since PHP scripts are not run as other applications are (which may be running in the background), PHP only runs upon display, thus you must make a 'default date', which could be today, and then count the amount of seconds which has passed since then, then you could add 1 per second or less, to whatever your bidding may be. It seems as a rather simple script indeed, though, but it merely depends on much you want it to rise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Opius Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 Only what you asked for: <?php function getdayspassed() { $startdate = strtotime('February 11 2006'); //the day the counter starts $startingvalue = 200; //the starting ammount of money you want $moneyvalue = 100; //how much you want to increase by each day return (floor((((time()-$startdate)/24)/60)/60)*$moneyvalue)+$startingvalue; } ?> An simple working script: <?php function getdayspassed() { $startdate = strtotime('February 11 2006'); //the day the counter starts $startingvalue = 200; //the starting ammount of money you want $moneyvalue = 100; //how much you want to increase by each day return (floor((((time()-$startdate)/24)/60)/60)*$moneyvalue)+$startingvalue; } $image = imagecreate(100,20); imagerectangle($image,0,0,100,20,imagecolorallocate($image,0,0,0)); imagestring($image, 4, 5, 2, '$'.getdayspassed(), imagecolorallocate($image,255,255,255)); header('Content-type: image/png'); imagepng($image); imagedestroy($image); ?> Example of output: I would suggest not hotlinking, unless you want it replaced with GIFs from bmevideo.wmv.
