Note that I hadn't coded the rank progress code yet before I abandoned the PHP sorting (see next paragraph), hence why they're all at 50%.
I noticed that your progress bars are "overstated" for the lower percentages. For example, one states 4.08%, but the actual progress bar is around 25%. You chould use layers so that the progress bar is acurately displayed for the percentage.
I see you're using the shittiest browser in the world, IE.

I'll try to get it looking right in retarded IE.

Edit: Seems the bar is going to at least the end of the text no matter what in IE. Chuy has the same problem here on BF2S even. Oh well, fuck IE. You shouldn't be using it anyway.
Well, I don't have any option of the browser I use at work. Plus, seeing as IE still has the lion's share of the internet I would think that anything you develop should work in at least the most common browser. It IS possible because I already did it. And it works in both Firefox and IE.

Hmm, for fun, I threw together one based on your API rather than MySQL. It doesn't seem to be too much faster:

You will notice that once you get decent hits on that site. When your machine is idle it does not matter all that much but it will save your server lots of ressources when it has to fetch the data from a DB everytime. Even worse would be if you didn't use persistent connections or prepared statements.

I thought I just might add that...

Now a question for Chuy: I just skimmed through your php-Code today. Thanks for all the work. I was wondering if anybody was interested in a Ruby-Port. If there's enough people I might cook something up.

Hmm, alright, I may just ditch MySQL then. It sounded like a good idea at the time, but after remembering about the JS sorting script as well as being corrected about speeds/loads...

Man, that's some crazy (and invalid) CSS. I get what you did though, so thanks.

Well, according to W3C that page does have some invalid code, but none of it is due to the CSS. Most is just some missing ALT tags and such.

Well, your inline CSS isn't valid either.

Mostly due to a lack of using a units like "px".

But regardless, your leaderboard looks good and I appreciate the help.

First of all, thank you for a great site!

I've implemented a PostNuke module that pulls PID's from registered members profiles and fetches your stats XML to be displayed on [url]http://www.rabarbersquad.se/index.php?name=BF2S[/url]. Everything works fine but we have now hit the 64 PID limit and I have a few questions before I try to solve this.
1. Your readme states that "You may only pull up to 3 xml feeds every 6 hours". Does this mean I can pull a feed every 2 hours as long as the PID's are not the same as 2/4 hours ago?
2. The proposed solution for my problem is to split the list of members so that I only fetch 64 every 2 hours. To support an arbitrary number of members it will probably be necessary to use the database to cache the stats. Has someone already implemented a solution like this?

You could, theoretically, pull 3 seperate feeds (64 a piece = 192 players) every 6 hours. All I keep track of is the number of times your IP has shown up at my XML feed door. ex:

Code:

XML Query recieved from IPADDR. If IPADDR (within last 6 hours) > 3 instances, return nothing.

Waltersson: add a field to the users table that says when their stats were last updated. Then, every 2 hours, grab the 64 people with the oldest stats, query their stats, and then save them to your stats table.

I've just downloaded these files to get the stats working on my clan site.  I have no idea what I'm doing here so to begin, all I did was replace the PID's in the examples.php file.  I have that file along with the bf2s-mlb.php file on my webserver and when I try to access the php file to get the stats, I receive the following error:

Notice: Undefined variable: non_numeric in C:\GTO CLAN\bf2s-mlb.php on line 259

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: is_executable() in C:\GTO CLAN\bf2s-mlb.php on line 60

Am I suppose to modify the bf2s-mlb.php file at all?

Thanks!

You very well may have to modify it. (the 'is_executable' function isn't available on your host's server)

Try adding this to the top of the bf2s-mlb.php:

Code:

    if ( !function_exists('is_executable') ) :
        function is_executable(){return true;}
    endif

What does the 'is_executable' function do?  I am hosting the the site on my personal server - Windows 2003 w/IIS 6.0

Did you add it after the <?php and before the class BF2S_MLB { ?

Yes, I did.  Here is what I have:

<?php
if ( !function_exists('is_executable') ) :
        function is_executable(){return true;}
    endif

/*
* BF2S XML Leader Board API
* You can use this class to download and output a leader board of players on your own site using any formatting you so choose.

*/

class BF2S_MLB {

    var $cachedir;
    var $has_cache;
   
    var $debug;
   
    var $myleaderboard;

    function BF2S_MLB() {
        $this->cachedir = dirname(__FILE__) . '/cache';
    }

Try this instead:

Code:

    if ( !function_exists('is_executable') ) {
        function is_executable() {
            return true;
        }
    }

Hey that worked! Thanks!  Now I can see stats for the PID's that I set. 

I saw the leaderboard at your site and downloaded the files you posted.  Does a setup like yours require anything sqecial... like mysql? Anything else?

Thanks again for the help!

Just want to show what I did with Chuy's API:

http://www.xyzhq.com/bb/

I save all stats in a Mysql DB so you can compare players' historical graphs.

Thx for the API!
