[PHP] Time release type question
Hello, I'm probably not using the right terminology for what I want to know, but I'll explain it as best I can. I am in the planning stage of building an online course room. Each week I need to upload pages for that weeks lesson and assignments. What I want to know is if there is a way for me to have all 8 weeks of the course pages created and upload them all at one time, but only have certain pages 'visible' based on the current date. This is an example of what I'm talking about. Week 1 pages would be visible starting June 3rd Week 2 pages would be visible starting June 10th Week 3 pages would be visible starting June 17th and so on. This would save an incredible amount of time. Thanks Indera -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] Login determines content on page
Hello, I'd to know how difficult it is to achieve the following: Create login page, when the submit button is clicked, the user info is checked against a database as to whether is login info is valid. if it is valid, a page is displayed that lists all of the classes that the user has registered for, meaning each user will see a different list of classes.

echo $assignment[$n][assignment]br\n;
}
}
that should do it.
sorry for the many posts,

I think that is right Jay,
you can use mktime() to change the date into unix time and then create
the if statement
if ((mktime([current])) == (mktime([date of assignment])) {
echo link to assignment
}
something along those lines..
you can easily check it by setting the system clock forward

Week 3 pages would be visible starting June 17th
Am I missing something? It's just a simple matter of checking the
current date and if it exceeds defined threshold (say June 3rd) then
display the page otherwise display an error message or redirect or
whatever.

[PHP] Quiz script
Hello, I have been looking for a script that I can use to create online quizzes. I also need to be able to score them online, save the results to a database, as well as, email the results to the student and teacher. The ideal option would use php and a mysql database. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

[PHP] phpbb and ikonboard forum scripts
Hello, I am trying to decide between these two scripts and was wondering if anyone has either of them installed. The one thing I need that I can't figure out if either of them have is whether or not, I can hide categories (that contain the forums and topics) on the category page and based on a users log-in have them enabled. If that is not possible is it possible to create 2 category pages and store them in one database, (hosting company only allows one instance of a forum script to be installed) one for the forums that everyone that comes to my site can see and another category page that will actually only be available in the restricted members only page. If it helps, here are the links http://www.phpbb.com and http://www.ikonboard.com I think I prefer the phpbb forum because ikonboard uses cgi scripts, or it least that's what it looks like.

[PHP] Getting started - what do I need?
Hello, I have never used php or mysql before and want to know what tools I should use so that I can start learning php and mysql. I would like to build basic things like a login page and forms that append the data to a database. I went to the bookstore and think the book PHP fast and easy web development is something that I could handle. I've read through some of the posts on this news group and realized that there are tools that I can use as front ends for these packages. I went to mysql.com and php.net and it seems that i can download both of these packages to my computer for free. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
