As of just a couple of minutes ago, I have completed the Movies portion of the site. I also squished a bug in the random image generator that cropped up once I added a tracking feature. Now I am tracking when each image is displayed in the Random Image part and what IP address generated that image. It may prove to be a big pain, though, as that table could grow to a lot of records really fast. With just my testing and programming, I generated 76 images since adding the tracking. I may have to summarize the data and not count IP addresses.
Read on for what’s left…
Next on the list is the Feeds section. It should be pretty simple to do, so I’ll hit that next. After that comes the Contact section. Once again, another easy one that shouldn’t take more than an hour or so.
Then, finally, the gallery. To make it even more simplistic, I’m just going to have each image or folder link simply pass a path variable that has either the directory or the image in it. Then I can use is_dir() or is_file() to see what is being pass and then act on it appropriately. I will have to add in some security to prevent would-be crackers from using it to browse the filesystem and/or try to display non-gallery files.
That’s about all I can think of for now. I may add a movie review and rating system to the Movies section at some point, but it’s not a top priority. I can probably also add in some more randomness and dynamics to it as well, but it’s not pressing, either.
