Ideas :)

Right, im making a hosting panel

not somthing like cpanel, its for resellers/webhosts etc who want to make packages but dont have the time to continually edit the page, so its all automated & all you need to do is put the specs in the admin panel (demo here: http://rh4u.co.uk/admin, iv disabled user logins for the time being).
Iv got some ideas, and some stuff iv made ;)
Also, can you give me some ideas as to what you would like to see in version 0.1?
Made:
just the shared hosting add packages page atm
Auto updater/patcher - whatever you wanna call it :)

Also, i need to know if you would like it to automaticaly update if theres a new release OR you have to go to update.php, bearing in mind, the most voted for will get put in :)

Thanks, Dominic

Anybody?

Interesting concept. I'd suggest it doesn't happen automatically, I am cringing at the amount of possible errors stemming from that...

Nah it works fine atm :)
www.rh4u.co.uk/admin/update.php :)

But theoretically you would need to upload that file to upgrade it, yes? How would it update without that file?

Nope, grabs the file from my server, if its a higher version than the one that the user has, it will copy ALL the data from the update file to the clients files :) I spent yesterday doing it :)

I'm not terribly sure that would work on another server... AFAIK file_get_contents will only grab the HTML output of a file on another server. That's how I'm assuming you're doing it, anyway.

nah, it uses file_get_contents to update it & check the licence, but it grabs all the data from a text file :)
to see the temp update file: http://rh4u.co.uk/updates/hostingpanelatest_index.txt
then once youv seen that run http://rh4u.co.uk/admin/update.php
:)

Oh, all right then. Still, I think you should go to update.php and update it there, rather than it happening automatically. People mightn't want to upgrade to the newest version straight away etc.
