So you've created a PHP script that does something like clean your tables or compiles a report on some data. You want it to run it every 2 hours but you don't want to go to your computer every 2 hours. What should you do? Cron job using crontab is what you should do. Cron job is basically setting a timer on your server to run the script at a certain time that you please. Sounds easy enough, but how do you do it? Lets find out!
I was looking at ways in which I could have built my websites differently today and came across the question. How can I guarantee my CSS rounded corners to be closer to 100% cross browser compatible. I came across a few sites with scripts and generators simplifying the tasks but most of them failed the browser test. I came up with a simple script that was simple and light. I'm not going to share the code. Now don't flame me yet. Instead I've made it easier for everybody. I've created the simple CSS rounded corners generator.
Sometimes when you're interacting with users you need to generate a random string of code or password. For example, a user is signing up for a service and you decided to give them some random password to start with, that's what I'm talking about. Here I have a quick script which allows you to generate random code with a defined length.
The other day I was working on a website drawing out a content well over 400 rows of data. Displaying the data all on one page is a lot of stress for the user so I made a quick pagination script. By displaying 20 results per page would end up with 20 separate pages. Imaging laying out 1 to 20 across your website (ugly eh?) well it gets worst. Imagine this database doubles! Yes! We're now laying 1 to 40 across our website. So I made this simple dynamic slider in which it only displays a certain amount of pages to choose from and as you travel further it will list more pages.
