Doh!
I actually included part of it in my response to you. That is embarrassing. 
What language is the Point of Sale system written in? Is that what you are editing?303tech wrote:Basically, its a Point of Sale system software that loads an ini. It is not a php script ini.
Is someone loading it, or what? I am not understanding what you mean by it loads everyday.303tech wrote:This software loads every day.
All of this can be done with a single PHP file.303tech wrote:It loads an html page into the workspace (which means i should be able to get it to pull dynamic content). I want to set this page to do a couple things right now.
-Parse the ini file for Storeid=, send to $sid
-search store by phone
-send the current ip of POS host machine to $ip, where it is stored on a remote db.
-mass update messages and news.
The example I posted above should do that.303tech wrote:I want to be able to load the store name or number from the ini, into a variable of a php script.
This part would more than likely be its own module, or collection of modules, in your application.303tech wrote:The admin backend would have some type of phone number SEARCH function... which would then pull up a table of:
Phone Number, STORE Name, Ip address, and current advertisements or news.
There would also be a place within admin to post or edit news where it would then show up on the page of the software everytime its loaded.
