Lack of scripts for adult sites

[enoj]

Hi, and good night to all of you!

I am a web developer from Norway, which codes PHP, and knows SQL. I was just wondering about a couple of things. I used to run some freesites, but lately it hasn't worked out well, financially... But anyways, i would like to ask you guys, is there any scripts that you can't find? .. Well.. Is there a particular script (big scripts, more like a forum than a guestbook, to put it that way) you want people to make? I just need something to do. I am not here to look for people to hire me to do work, but i was wondering if there are some scripts someone has looked for, but haven't found, or something like that. The one who gives me a nice tips, will of course get the first version for free...

Just wondering.. After all the stuff i've read in this forum, i guess you would just tell me to fuck myself.. but i can handle that =) ..

Anyway, have a good night! Don't do anything bad! .. Yeah right..

and by the way, i am the proud programmer of www.mypods.com ! (i don't own/run the site though) ..

It would be great to have a relatively CPU-light script that sifts traffic by browser language. Similar in a way to the Hitsorter.com service, but covering all countries and allowing all webmasters to use it (Hitsorter.com only allows a few countries to participate)

The script would allow you to set up N different URLs that people are sent to depending on the language setting in their browser. So e.g. Japanese surfers would go to japan_index.htm, Korean surfers to korean_index.htm, Spanish surfers to spanish_index.htm and all others to the default page index2.htm

I have seen one script like this but it's coded by a Russian programmer and, try as hard as I could, I could not understand the sort-of-English-ish instructions enough to reconfigure it.

I bet you'd get a lot of takers from people seeking to clean up their traffic.

Oh, and you should allow people to create "groups" of countries i.e. send people from e.g. Korea, Japan and China to the same page, and send people from anywhere in Europe to one page, anywhere in South America to one page etc.

Well, you get the idea... bells and whistles can be added later

All the things you asked for here can be done in Javascript really easily..

I'm sure Lensman would love to see everyone cleanup their traffic this way...

Actually, i can make this script =)

And groups, sure, no problem. But I would like to know one thing. But people spend money on such small scripts? Well, I have to make a living you know.. But thanks a lot, i think i will make this script, and then ask your opionion about it, and probably put it online as freeware.. Good referance later when i maker bigger scripts..

All the things you asked for here can be done in Javascript really easily..

Javascript does not have the possibility to work with databases. If I could save all the countries, their index file, and such in a database (or maybe a file, for non-availabe mysql hosting accounts), and then sort it out from there.. But of course, i would probably use some javascript to track where the user is from, or i could use PHP's function Gethostbyaddr() which gets host by the ip .. so gethostbyaddr("my.ip"); would be like 215124.myisp.no (.no is norway).


Any more ideas?

I think this is a great isea, but I would like to be able to sort by IP, Language, or Domain.

I want to be able to send AOL traffic to one place, and so on.

I have a script that will do this with mod_rewrite, but you can't do language in mod_rewrite.

I would like to be able to say send all people from .it (for example) to such and such, UNLESS they have their browser in english.

And I would like to be able to do all this with out having to learn some complicated command structure.

Is that asking too much?

[Gemini]

Should we be asking you to come back when you turn 18 enoj?

[enoj]

Gemini : excuse me?

Well, sure it isn't too much to ask, but it's a lot to ask if you want it for free. Now i asked, would you pay for it?

Like you described in your last post, it will be a medium-size script, with a lot of effort put in it. Some OOP must of course be included..

But anyway..

I don't think i'd put that script online as freeware, though..

All what you said can be setup in apache...without using any scripts

[Chris R]

I can do some of it in apache, but from my understanding - there is no way to do the language thing. I can do the IP and aol thing, but I know of no way to do the language thing in apache. If you could point me in the right direction (I have already been to apache's site) - that would be great.

[Ludedude]

This is a good idea.

I'd rather not deal with javascript on the
page if I can avoid it, although it's very
easy to do in jscript using browser language.

It would be nice to have something in PHP to do it. I've seen similar scripts, but they require a seperate statement for each country that you want to filter. To do it all in one statement, maybe with a MySQL backend (that's optional for me) would be cool. I could really use a script that does it based on browser language...something small to filter that stuff without loading my page with 40 lines of jscript would be cool.

I'm not that concerned with AOL vs. IP address, cause that can all be done in .htaccess that I'm running anyway, but certain pages lend themselves to certain flavors of traffic better than others, so it would be a good thing I already said that already.

As far as paying for it, that all depends on support after the sale. I don't mind paying, but I sure better get what I paid for.

Ludedude : how much would you pay for it, though? ..

I agree, i would rather use PHP, and I will. But i must use some kind of javascript...

For eg. the first thing we can check is the language of the browser, which is most important.. In javascript this is something like navigator(language) or something (not sure).. Then we could check the host.. Like *.online.no would go to index_norway.htm or something. If the language/host isn't found, be just go to default default_index.htm, which optionally could be changed to en_index.htm or something like that.. But what do you want to be able to do in the admin interface? ... Groups should be ok.. But still.. I will think about it.. Maybe some of you could be beta-testers when it's done.. Beta-testers should of course get the finished script for a lower price, or even free..

What do you think?

OK..
There are 3 ways to do it:
1.) JavaScript but you won't be able to use a DB
2.) Mod_Rewrite..Again not Database...
3.) Apache Mod(you can have DB support here)..I can do it but it I don't think it'll be worth my time. How much are you willing to pay for it?
4.) Oh yeah PHP(you can have DB support)..but you'll have to redo all your site in PHP

4.) Oh yeah PHP(you can have DB support)..but you'll have to redo all your site in PHP

Now, why do you have to do that? index.php is the only php file you need! .. Just use index.php to redirect to the site (eg index_french.htm) ..

Easy!

The easiest way to do this in Apache is to use Content Negotiation. This allows you to display a different page based on the browser's preferred language. Because this is all done within Apache, it happens fast.

The other alternative is to lookup the user's host name from their IP address. This would however be ssslllooowww and would quickly bog down a server since every hit would require a reverse DNS lookup.

Content Negotiation is a great compromise although if some guy in Japan sets his browser to "en-us", Apache will serve up the English Page whereas a reverse DNS will pickup the correct country code.

Wow, content negotiation sounds exciting.

Presumably you could set up e.g. 20 different "index.html" files, one for each of 20 languages, and have each one meta-refresh somewhere else... so that you could have all your traffic come to your root URL, get split into languages and sent off to whatever pages (or indeed entire sites) you've built for users of that language.

I would like to have one that will rotate urls withing gallery links. Here is my main page. http://www.lostbush.com/tgp.html

In the gallerys list I have some link trades. They are hardlinks that I put into templates using the gallery software. Is it possible to initiate a script that will rotate these links between the "breaks" specified by the script that constructs the page
