I tried something and sort some php code out but itīs too difficult to make it alone.
that could be a possbile try
Request 1 - Team decision
Request 2 - win-draw-lose
phps advantage is that you have many many possibilties to do the job and do it good.
my first try was a html form with simple text areas to fill in the both teams whoīll play against each other. "send" it to the php program but open it on the same site. These two teams are fixed as text now - no chance to edit it after the selection and now 3 radio buttons to decide the outcome. "send" button again and send it to a file where the bet is safed.
Problems:
1. the easiest way to safe in files is an .txt file but it would be too long after some time
2. how to appraise?
3.include it in the forum software (that will be the most difficult part)
Maybe I need a partner with mysql experience. Itīll be the easiest way to safe the bets.
I read in two php books and tried something but SQL isnīt easy and I need much time for it... (fucking employer donīt give me holidays for it
).
Donīt know much about XML.
@Quandram
I can make so a php design without functionality if you can make the "bet-machine" to work. But you need much more than xml to give it a run neednīt you?
@komp
A professional php programer will take more than 500 for this project - canīt imagine that you have the money for it. Do you searched for a php-amateur-programer forum?
Maybe there are some amateurs with that knowledge you want??
