So what happens if the number gets too large for the image size?

It explodes and kills everyone on this earth.

mod_rewrite, anyone? For instance, I have, on owenrudge.net:

RewriteRule ^various/playing_b.png various/currentplay.php
RewriteRule ^various/playing_g.png various/currentplay.php?col=g

Much nicer than telling PHP to parse image files!

Besides, you could call the file .smellypoo if you wanted. As long as the MIME type is correct, it should* work fine.

* Certain browsers, such as MSIE, don't always listen to the MIME type, instead prefering to go by the extension, which is wrong.

MS always wants to do things a little bit different, that's why linux apps don't work on windows and vica versa. And this is also why whe have 100 "standards" for every simple thing.

EDIT: this isn't meant as some kind of troll.

mod_rewrite? eehh??

As for the browser thingy, I used FF to *link* it...

Besides, about the resets, I did not reset anything

However, what does is possible is that it *opens* the file

stores the information, then closes the file + saving with new amount and then output it, however, within the time of opening, saving and closing the file it is possible if another session opens the file it does will increase but ti won't show it to the first person, resulting in a not-up-to-date image

Atleast I think that was what happend. As I was with my girl all night, and did not touch my computer for a while

so I did not reset anything

mod_rewrite.

Just stick the code I gave above into a .htaccess file (tweak it appropriately, of course). Oh, and stick RewriteEngine On above it, too. This assumes that your Apache has mod_rewrite support compiled in, which most do these days.

Ahh thanks! I bene looking for that for an awful lot of time!!!

I do believe the right term would be

I never got the hang of mod_rewrite though. When I look at the .htaccess wordpress generated, it confuses me beyond belief

Haha, well I saw someone on my school toying with that mod_rewrite like 2 months back. However I forgot what it was named back then.

Never saw that dude ever after (forgot who it was

). So I was not able to *find* him...

It was quite handy as to what he made tough

when you entered an url like http://www.*.com/home/foto it would open the page as http://www.*.com/index.php?dir=home&mod=foto

as an example

Yes, the same counts for wikipedia (as well as a few billion other sites out there): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transport_Tycoon actually rewrites to http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?tit ... ort_Tycoon

thanks owen.

I just fell in love with mod_rewrite

Pass curl the --head option, should be a bit better
