< Kizor>
A game I'm playing has a scheduled event in {If(77<70)} Shoulda happened by now.");]else[print("7 days to go.");} %> days.
02:43
< Kizor>
What language is it written in?
02:46
<~Vornicus>
Idunno, that's an incredible mess.
02:47
< Kizor>
fuck

*else{

<@sshine>
I don't recognise it, either.
02:48
< Kizor>
sorry, it looked like a [
02:48
< Kizor>
:<
02:48
<~Vornicus>
so like
02:48
< Kizor>
Goddammit
02:48
<~Vornicus>
%> is the end of a template chunk
02:48
< Kizor>
The other ] is } too
02:48
< Kizor>
Making the whole thing
02:49
< Kizor>
{If(77<70)} Shoulda happened by now.");}else{print("7 days to go.");} %> days.
02:49
<~Vornicus>
Are ... ... you sure about how that if works
02:50
<~Vornicus>
okay so: <% %> are asp style templating tags.
02:50
<@sshine>
and If could be Visual Basic?
02:50
< Kizor>
Real sorry, I double-checked before I wrote "A game I'm playing..."
02:51
<@sshine>
nah, doesn't seem like VB.
02:52
<~Vornicus>
the other stuff - assuming the if part actually has brackets like this: "if(77<70) {" - is standard C-shaped syntax, but that's extremely common
02:52
<@sshine>
{If(77<70)} is sort of uncommon?
02:52
<~Vornicus>
and also there's other things there that suggest something else has gone wrong
02:52
<~Vornicus>
if by "sort of" you mean "I can read something like 50 programming languages and have never seen that", yes
02:52
<@sshine>
haha, exactly.
02:54
<~Vornicus>
but the syntax has clearly been broken: there should be a `print("` before `Shoulda`
02:54
< Mahal>
yeah, it looks like a chunk is missing
02:56
<~Vornicus>
though of course you wouldn't be seeing it if it wasn't broken, so~
02:58
< Kizor>
Right. Thank you.

Where the number changes
16:33
<&[R]>
... I found out how it "works"
16:33
<&[R]>
WTF
16:34
<&[R]>
So they'll include it as a 1x1 pixel image in the pages
16:34
<&[R]>
I guess so normal page load isn't affected, but this still keeps an open network connection on the client

I love how no-one answered the question

I also love how they have to have a "fix the tables" admin panel tool

now, i am neither a PHP or a cron expert, but that does not seem like robust design to me
20:28
<&[R]>
Nope
20:28
<&[R]>
It's hacky as fuck because shared hosting provides PHP, but not always access to cron
20:28
<&[R]>
And this is written for shared hosting
20:29

< Emmy>
And of course PHP only runs while opened
20:46
<&[R]>
Yup
20:46
<&[R]>
You /can/ set it to stop caring about the connection to the client
20:46
<&[R]>
Though PHP also has a cli mode
