Hi every 1! i have been coding various stuff for a couple of years now but i cant work this 1 out. I have a website that is soon starting an internet radio station. 🆒 cool... any way, im usin windows media encoder and you can see/ hear what im broardcasting through a browser via medi player. However, if i want another DJ to do a show from their computer, i cant have mi computer on all the time. -wel that wouldnt work anyway... So i need a php script that will change the ip address that the player points to depending on the date time. I have worked out something but it only changes the day - well im not sure if it even does that. I need it to change the ip from 4:00pm - 5:00pm GMT on a wednesday - or other days etc.. here is what i have so far...

<?php 
$computerip = '';
$gmdate=gmdate(l);
if ($gmdate == Wednesday) {
$computerip = 'bobs ip';
} else {
$computerip = 'james ip';
}
?>

james being me and bob being another person - il obversily change that to an ip..

PLEASE HELP :-p!!

Give this a shot...

$gmdate = gmdate('l',time());

if ($gmdate == 'Wednesday') { 
	$computerip = 'bobs ip'; 
} else { 
	$computerip = 'james ip'; 
}

Instead of 'l', grab the current server hour...then compare the hours...

sorry i dont follow, i need to change the part that says wednesday to something like 4:00-5:00 and then have that in the set variables part as well, how do i do that?

soz would it be this

<?php 
$gmdate = gmdate('l H',time()); 

if ($gmdate == ('Wednesday 16')) { 
    $computerip = 'bobs ip'; 
} else { 
    $computerip = 'james ip'; 
} 
echo "$computerip";
?>

And it would have 2 b 16 hours if i wanted it 2 be 5:00 because its daylight savings time at the moment isnt it.

JameZzzz...

Yes, and if you follow the link that I previously indicated...the answer is right there...if you can figure out what 'l' is then you can figure out which one you need to get the date in military time...
