Anyone know of where the php version of the hotornot.com script is?

Or even the other copycat versions?

could not for the life of me find one, though i didn't look all that hard :p

prolly wouldn't be too hard to write one. if one knew php (which i do not yet). the logic doesn't seem all that complex.

the actual hotornot script IS php, and they won't give out their code.

wankers.

oh and it needs alot of work. The config could be done so much better and the author didn't create the config with variables that probably should've been there like oh....

DBNAME = "whatever your db is"

instead of manually having to look through the code for the default db name which is wrong.

My php skills are very weak, but are decent enough to know this should have been in there ;)

work on it to get you some practice.

and, of course, post your changes here, and tell the doofus that wrote it originally about them.

Yeh me too! I thought I was a search engine wizard, but it proved very difficult.

I started running searches based on ami hot ornot and I did some digging on a few different pages that came up. However, I as looking for at least a good 2 hours.
