Ye' old general discussion board. Basically, for everything that isn't covered elsewhere. Come here to shoot the breeze, shoot your mouth off, or whatever suits your fancy. This forum is not for asking programming related questions.
I'm going to buy myself a nice new iPod Nano because my old one is a bit wrecked and I need it for mountain biking. They come with free laser engraving on the back .. so I'm thinking of getting a short PHP script on mine! Yes, I am that geeky.
So as a little inspiration I figure we should have a little competition (no prizes) to see who can come up with the coolest/silliest/most interesting script that fits in the 58 character limit. Bonus marks for getting it to do something relevant like echo'ing out "This is an iPod" or the URL of PHPDN or something.
If the winning entry is better than anything I can come up with I might well go with it.. your script could be immortalised on the back of a mod's iPod! Amazing!
One more rule - You can't use short tags. I refuse to have them on my iPod. If you need that much space just leave out the opening tag.
<?PHP function lost(){if($found)return(123-4567);} ?>
There's room to put your area code & another dash in if necessary.
Edit: I use an iPod Shuffle for biking. You don't need the screen, you don't need the capacity, the Shuffle is cheaper, and it comes with a built-in clip for clipping to your shorts or backpack.
Real programmers don't comment their code. If it was hard to write, it should be hard to understand.
function lost($found){return;
echo('e: xxxx@xxxx.com');}
Technically the function is wrong because it'd always return before the echo gets called, and the parameter isn't used, but it's only for show. I even had to set up a new email address for it to make it fit properly.
