Thoughts?

So I added a couple new features to crimin4l.cc/proxies over the last week or so and I think the page is 100% complete now :biggrin:
Let me know what you guys think:

Also before all this, I would get the date from a date.txt that I would have to update everytime I updated proxies.txt. Got very annoying and immediately was trying to figure out how to pull the last modified date from the proxies.txt file. Finally did and feels like a huge accomplishment because i really had minimal help/googling on this one :biggrin:

Thank you @mothered

I feel so accomplished relearning my old roots :biggrin: It went from having a date.txt file where I would have to write the date in every time I updated the proxy list, to automatic :biggrin:
I said goodbye to date.txt with these simple lines:

PHP Code:

$pfile = "proxies.txt"; //Declare file

$pfiletime = date("U", filemtime($pfile)); //Formatting the file's last modified time into seconds <<Used again in second code box>>
$hoursToSubtract = 4; //UTC offset (In Hours) For me I am UTC-4
$secToSubtract = ($hoursToSubtract * 60 * 60); //converts the $hoursToSubtract into seconds; 4 x 60 minutes x 60 seconds
$mytime = $pfiletime - $secToSubtract; //Subtracting the 4 hours (in seconds) from the files time (to get UTC-4 timezone)

//Reformat the new UTC-4 time ($mytime) to a readable format (Because it's in seconds)
$time1 = date("F j, Y", $mytime);
$time2 = date("g:i", $mytime);
$time3 = date(":s", $mytime);
$time4 = date("A [e-4]", $mytime)
//You can also do this in 1 line. I just needed to display the date on two separate lines and make the seconds smaller, so I had to separate it all.
$example1line = date("F j, Y g:i:s A [e-4]", $mytime); //pfile's last modified date and time in UTC-4 Timezone 


Then since having the the $pfiletime in seconds already, I grabbed the current time (also in UTC; where server is located) and subtract them to get the time of how long ago it was modified:

PHP Code:

$currenttime = time(); //getting time in seconds
$updatedlast = $currenttime - $pfiletime; //subtracting current time from $pfiletime 

//Then once again changing the time from seconds to a readable format, also can be done in 1 line but I separated it so it can be displayed separately in a sentence.
$uphrs = date("G", $updatedlast);
$upmins = date("i", $updatedlast);
$upsecs = date("s", $updatedlast);

$example1line = date("G:i:s", $updatedlast); //Will display as "Hours:Minutes:Seconds" 


Super easy, once I knew the date and filemtime functions I was able to really do it all by myself :biggrin:
I hope someone finds this information useful :smile:

Looks professional and very appealing Indeed.

A job well done.

Neat piece of coding. The comments will help members understand It quite clearly.

The date, filemtime and time functions are quite powerful, but must be used In the proper context. On a similar principle but different task, I deal with the DATETIME, TIMESTAMP, DATE & YEAR data types (the caps Is how they're represented) on almost a daily basis, when manipulating databases In SQL during exploitation. The execution must correspond with each one accordingly.

I like your site's theme- simple and very attractive. I see that anon.city will be up soon. I'll keep an eye out for It.

Thank you :smile: and I hope, I tried to be as thorough as possible when making the comments :tongue:

I've never done anything like manipulating databases, or even used SQL before. I never gotten that far with my experience but SQL is definitely on the bucket list :tongue: Pretty Funny though that you use almost the same functions everyday that I used here but a different language

Also thank you once again! I'm hoping I found the right partner for anon.city but he worked on it with me for the first day then kinda ghosted me for a week.. Then hits me up saying he was busy with other peoples projects that hes also accepted. Then also has the nerve to ask me if the logo he requested in the beginning was done xD (I agreed to make him a logo for building most of the websites back-end). I simply said "when the website is actually getting worked on and progress is being made I will work on the logo, I am just not gonna make a free logo and then never hear from you again". So this project might be taking longer than I expected

I don't believe you could've explained It any better.

SQL Is very simple to learn.

I'm probably saying this because I've been using It for so long, that It's become second nature. When you decide to take It on board, don't hesitate to shoot me a PM with any questions you may have.

You're most welcome.

Unless you're working to a deadline, do remember that there's no rush when creating a website. I have many sites up and running, with the latest (work In progress) being a social engineering blog. As long as I add "some" content each day toward Its completion, then I'm happy with that.

I tried explaining all that code to my parents and they didn't get any of it xD I just kept saying "its soo simple, just use common sense" xD
You just reminded me of that whole convo I had with them! When things come easy for us we don't understand what others find hard about it xD
But I honestly never even tried to look into it, so I can't really say if I find it difficult or not; but when/if I get started in it i'll definitely keep that in mind my friend :biggrin:

That's awesome mate! Always good to have multiple projects to keep your mind busy (especially in times like this). But yea that's what I've been thinking so I haven't been stressing it too much because I know it best; that everyone has their own life and may not always be able to be there. So I'm just letting him rock until he's ready

I'm Inundated with computing tasks each and every day, and can't seem to catch up. In my world, there's never enough time In a day.

It's good to read you're not stressing to complete your website. There's no rush whatsoever, so there's no purpose In being mentally exhausted.
