Discussion: Online Status Indicator w/ PHP script

I was gunna try and sell this, but I can't think of a good way to sell it without hosting scripts.

So if you end up using this, please be nice and tip me at least a quarter's worth of lindens ~75L.

It is basically your standard green/red online indicator prim. However, this updates a php script to copy an image in the same folder as your PHP script (online.gif or offline.gif) into a folder caled 'status' (might need to make this folder and chmod it 777) as well as writes a small status.txt file to the same folder with the word offline or online that can be included into your site/blog/forum posts using the information at this url:
http://www.boutell.com/newfaq/creating/include.html

All you have to do is...

1. Save the php file to your server
   
2. Create and save an online and offline image (.gif, .jpg, or . png)
   
3. Upload it to the same folder as the php script
   
4. make a subfolder in the same folder as the php script and name it 'status'
   
5. Chmod it 777 is necesary
   
6. save the lsl script onto a prim in-world you want to use as a status indicator
   
7. copy the php file's URL to that prim's description
   
8. reset the script
   
9. Incporporate the status.txt into and status/status.gif into your site
   

Status.php file:

<?php
////// Simple PHP/LSL Status Updater///////////
// To Install:
// 0. Edit the following $Timer variable to match how oen in seconds you want your indicator to be updated.
// 1. Copy this script (status.php), a gif/jpg/png image named "online" and "offline" to your server.
// 2. In the same folder as the script create a folder named "status" and if applicable chmod it 777.
// 3. Copy and paste the URLof this script into the description of the online status indicator in-world.


$Timer = 300; //Five Minutes.

It wouldn't be that hard to expand this a bit and use the indicator as a in-world server for a HUD that gets your info (location, status, ect) if you're creative.

Its set up so the web server defines how often the status gets checked.
