[PHP] Number of habbos online [PHP]

[parky1306]

Anyone got the code so that i can put it into a PHP file?

I used to use this on my site in the html source

<script src="http://www.habboring.com/online/uk.php" type="text/javascript"></script>

But now HabboRing has shut down, so i cant use that anymore

So i just want to do something similar in html format in my page like the below

<script src="/LINK HERE.php" type="text/javascript"></script>

Any help is appreciated

<?php
$hotel = $_GET["hotel"]; // abbrev.. co.uk, com, ca.

$data = @file_get_contents("http://www.habbo.{$hotel}");

if(!$data) {
    exit("Could not grab data.");
}

$pattern = '<span class="stats-fig">';
$pattern .= '(\\d+)';
$pattern .= '(<\\/span>)';

preg_match_all ("/{$pattern}/is", $data, $matches);

$habbos = $matches[0][0];

if(empty($habbos)) {
    exit("Could not grab data.");
}

echo "There are {$habbos} Habbos online.";

There's the source for how to do it.

Caleb: Why match more than you have to? You don't. The regular expression

#<span class="stats-fig">(\d+)</span>#

Does quite nicely and is more effecient than yours. Plus he only wants the habbo's online so you don't need to preg_match_all, in conjunction with yours:

<?php

$hotel = $_GET["hotel"]; // abbrev.. co.uk, com, ca.

$data = @file_get_contents("http://www.habbo.{$_GET["hotel"]}");

if(!$data) {
    exit("Could not grab data.");
}

preg_match('#<span class="stats-fig">(\d+)</span>#i', $data, $matches);

$habbos = $matches[1];

if(empty($habbos)) {
    exit("Could not grab data.");
}

echo "There are {$habbos} Habbos online.";

why not just use this, seeming as you put all these checks in place but forgot the single most important one: is something actually entered as the url? you might as well just ditch all the checks together.

preg_match( '#<span class="stats-fig">(\d+)</span>#i', @file_get_contents( 'http://habbo.' . $_GET[ 'tld' ] ), $matches );
echo $matches[1];

omg anova variation!!!

echo ( preg_match( '#<span class="stats-fig">(\d+)</span>#i', @file_get_contents( 'http://habbo.' . $_GET[ 'tld' ] ), $matches ) ) ? end( $matches ) : 'Error' ;

I liked how you ****** it up, I was matching the exact same thing you did, except I was splitting it up to see how it was done. (span, integer, span).

You also messed up the abbreviations, since you wanted to be so "smart" and put {$_GET["hotel"]} right along in the string there, you left the $hotel at the top.

Also Iszak, if you want to argue efficiency, my pattern is quite more efficient with preg_match_all then your pattern is with preg_match.

Yep, mines definitely faster just check the speed of these

and if you think I'm 'rigging' it with the source view it.

The results speak for themselves, you may need to refresh each one to get a more accurate result. Also with mine you don't need the insensitive flag that was accidently added to the code. But I added it to make it fair. Here are some results I got.

whats wrong with this way?

<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"> <span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 187);">

<?php
$hotel = file_get_contents("http://www.habbo.co.uk/");
    
$start = explode('<span class="stats-fig">', $hotel, 2);
$end = explode('</span>', $start[1], 2);
$habbo = trim($end[0]);

echo("Habbos online: $habbo");
?>
