getting content exceprts from the database
I've been thinking about this problem for a little while, and the thing is, I can think of ways of doing it, but they're not very nice, and I don't think they're going to be fast.

Is the case of <?php important in any way?
Hi. I've recently come across some third party code which uses ... <?PHP as the PHP tag. This is the first time I've seen PHP in upper case for the tag. The code works in V5, so, from this, I can assume the tag is read case insensitive. Are there any issues with this when moving forward? When Unic... 26 Apr 2010 10:17

CURL cannot connect to URL - IP address - after successful connection
I can return a target page - once, but then on refresh within a few hours the script curl_error is that it cannot connect to the host and return is empty. The target URL is an ip address, not a named url, so maybe it has something to do with DNS. I am on a shared server. Any ideas on why this happens? Joh... 30 Apr 2010 05:07

What's your game? (X-PHP)

It's the most recent in a long line of war games (i.e., Call of Duty, Ghost Recon, etc.). My gamer tag is "special ... 27 Apr 2010 13:21
