$start = "There are currently ";

1) $servname_lenth = is now long in characters your server name is (HGserver name)
2) $lines = file($dir."\\GameServerLog".date("Ymd").".log"); this line you don't need to worry about, it's just dumping the whole file into a buffer
3) $final = substr(substr($line, 35 + $servname_lenth, , 0, -1);
i seem to have made a mistake here, sorry about that. it should be:

Code: Select all

foreach ($lines as $line) {
$final = substr(substr($line, (35 + $servname_lenth), 8), 0, -1);
}

Hope it works now...

i don't know but easy php is a poor choice, if you can't install php for apache yourself there are other more advanced and secure packages out there. If i find my old link, i'll post it here. Basicly just google it.

why do you have 2 "foreach"? (i must have not made it clear enough)

ok here is what you should have:

Code: Select all

<?
//---------------------Config starts here-----------------------------

$dir = "C:\\Documents and Settings\\GaNgStA\\Desktop\\HBServer 3.2"; // Use duble back slashes (\\) (Don't include the end "\\")
$servname_lenth =11; // How many characters is in your server name
$start = "There are currently "; // What it displays before the number
$end = " people on this server!"; // What it displays after the number

//-----------------------Code starts here-----------------------------
$lines = file($dir."\\GameServerLog".date("Ymd").".log"); // Puts all lines in the file into the $lines array
foreach ($lines as $line) {
$final = substr(substr($line, (35 + $servname_lenth), 8), 0, -1);
}
echo $start.$final.$end;
?>

see how the file dosn't realy exist because you pointed it to the wrong directory??? (C:\Documents and Settings\GaNgStA\Desktop\HB Berserk\GameServerLog20041004.log)

try using:
$dir = "C:\\Documents and Settings\\GaNgStA\\Desktop\\HB Berserk\\GameServerLog"

ok, what it does is it pulls the file off the server, if you really want to do it, you can set the log folder as a ftp server root folder (on the hosters comp) and then you can link the script up to that location. if you use windows XP there should be a easy way of doing it. Read up on IIS is you want to do it this way (this is a ftp hosting software that comes with windows, it runs on the hosts computer).

Note: if you want privasy, it would be nice to set a password on the ftp.
