RE: [PHP] Time release type question
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 Use a database. Store information about each file in the database, including a release date. Then create navigation links based on reading data out of your database using that release date as one of your criteria.

Re: [PHP] Time release type question
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

Re: [PHP] Time release type question
actually that should be
for ($n = 1; $n = $number_of_assignments; $n++) {
if (mktime($current) = mktime($assignment[$n]) {
echo assignment[$n]br\n;
}
}

I'm sorry
$assignment[1][date] = date(); // date in mktime format see www.php.net
$assignment[2][date] = date();
$assignment[3][date] = date();
$assignment[4][date] = date();
$assignment[5][date] = date();
$assignment[1][assignment] = pg. 1-5;
$assignment[2][assignment] = ;
$assignment[3][assignment] = ;
$assignment[4][assignment] = ;
$assignment[5][assignment] = ;
$number_of _assignments = count($assignment);
for ($n = 1; $n = $number_of_assignments; $n++) {
if (mktime($current) = mktime($assignment[$n][date]) {
echo $assignment[$n][assignment]br\n;
}
}
that should do it.
sorry for the many posts,
