Good script, could be much better with a few tweaks, like not using parenthesis in language constructs, but overall it's good.

Okai ladies and gents, and little scripters (you 1337 *****)

Here's some PHP & Lil Apache rewrite for you

Basically, I got bored and coded this up. It allows people to hotlink for a period of time, say 1 minute, or 50 hours?

Its not the best way to do it and could probably changed > alot <

Heres the main part of it...

<?php
mysql_connect( 'localhost', 'dev_hotLink', 'hottie' ) or die( 'Error Mysql DB' );
mysql_select_db( 'dev_hotLinks' );

function createImg( $i )
{
    $f = @file_get_contents( $i );
    $iS = imagecreatefromstring( $f );
    header( 'content-type: image/png' );
    imagepng( $iS );
    imagedestroy( $iS );
}

function hotLink( $i, $t, $a )
{
    if( $i != '' && $t != '' )
    {
        if( is_numeric( $t ) )
        {
            $iS = rand() . '-imageHotlink-' . rand();
            if( $q = mysql_query( 'INSERT INTO `hotlinks` (`id`, `img`, `session`, `timeout`, `time`) VALUES (NULL, "' . mysql_real_escape_string( $i ) . '", "' . $iS . '", "' . ( $t * 60 ) . '", "' . time() . '");' ) )
            {
                echo( '<img src="images/' . $iS . '" alt="' . $a . '" />' );
            }
        }
        else
        {
            echo( '<img src="error.jpg" alt="' . $a . '" />' );
        }
    }
    else
    {
        echo( '<img src="error.jpg" alt="' . $a . '" />' );
    }
}

function findImage( $s )
{
    if( $s != '' )
    {
        if( $q = mysql_query( 'SELECT *  FROM `hotlinks` WHERE `session` = "' . mysql_real_escape_string( $s ) . '"' ) )
        {
            if( mysql_num_rows( $q ) >= 1 )
            {
                if( $f = mysql_fetch_array( $q ) )
                {
                    if( abs( ( time() - $f[ 'time' ] ) ) <= $f[ 'timeout' ] )
                    {
                        createImg( $f[ 'img' ] );
                    }
                    else
                    {
                        mysql_query( 'DELETE FROM `hotlinks` WHERE `hotlinks`.`id` = "' . $f[ 'id' ] . '" LIMIT 1' );
                        createImg( 'hotlink.jpg' );
                    }
                }
            }
            else
            {
                createImg( 'hotlink.jpg' );
            }
        }
        else
        {
            createImg( 'error.jpg' );
        }
    }
    else
    {
        createImg( 'error.jpg' );
    }
}
?>

Why do you have

header( 'content-type: image/png' ); 

when all the images are generated as .jpg?

Good script, could be much better with a few tweaks, like not using parenthesis in language constructs, but overall it's good.

Wow, when will you learn that using parenthesis is a preference, there is no "right or wrong" unless you're writing scripts for huge web sights, then there might be a benefit of not using them.

png is a better quality format.

[Agnostic Bear]

png is a better quality format.

Depends entirely on how you save the file.

On php.net it actually says its bad. If your so worried I'm lying go find it.

That totally depends on the image.
