Please can someone help me?

[dtown1]

I have tried to get help on 4 other forums and no is willing to help. I just want to edit a script to fit my needs.
Currently the script is a five star voting system. It averages the votes and gives the user stars. I just want it to give out a star for every 5 clicks of a button. I also need to be able to post the result on someones page without the button to vote as I must be the only one able to hand out votes.
No one will help me out and I am desperate.... Please help me out. Here is the code.

<?

// User settings
$rater_ip_voting_restriction = true; // restrict ip address voting (true or false)
$rater_ip_vote_qty=1; // how many times an ip address can vote
$rater_already_rated_msg="You have already rated this item. You were allowed ".$rater_ip_vote_qty." vote(s).";

I just want it to give out a star for every 5 clicks of a button.

Does this mean you want to change the input form?
Now there are 5 options from Poor to Excellent.

And you want only one Click Button, for you to click 5 times for 1 new star.

This is the current form
with 5 radiobuttons:

<?php
error_reporting(E_ALL &~ E_NOTICE);

Okay now it has 5 options to vote with. I want one options. Now it averages the votes out and that is the graphic displayed. I want it to start out with one graphic and after 5 votes it will move up to the next so on and so forth.

[dtown1]

So to bring the radio buttons down to 1 I would do this? Now how do I edit the value of each vote and the value of each graphic?

<?php
error_reporting(E_ALL &~ E_NOTICE);

echo '<form method="post" action="'.$_SERVER["PHP_SELF"].'">';

echo '<input type="hidden" name="rs_id" value="'.$rater_id.'" />';
echo '<input type="submit" name="rate'.$rater_id.'" value="Rate" />';
echo '</div>';
if($rater_msg!="") echo "<div>".$rater_msg."</div>";
echo '</form>';
echo '</div>';

?>

[dtown1]

I am guessing this is the value of the votes...

// Output
echo '<div class="hreview">';
echo '<form method="post" action="'.$_SERVER["PHP_SELF"].'">';
echo '<h3 class="item">Rate <span class="fn">'.$rater_item_name.'</span></h3>';
echo '<div>';
echo '<span  class="rating"><img src="'.$rater_stars.'?x='.uniqid((double)microtime()*1000000,1).'" alt="'.$rater_stars_txt.' stars" /> Ave. rating: '.$rater_stars_txt.'</span> from <span class="reviewcount"> '.$rater_votes.' votes</span>.';
echo '</div>';

?>

And that this is the value of the image...

if ($rater_rating <= 0  ){$rater_stars = "./img/0.jpg";$rater_stars_txt="Not Rated";}
if ($rater_rating >= 0.5){$rater_stars = "./img/1.jpg";$rater_stars_txt="0.5";}
if ($rater_rating >= 1  ){$rater_stars = "./img/2.jpg";$rater_stars_txt="1";}
if ($rater_rating >= 1.5){$rater_stars = "./img/3.jpg";$rater_stars_txt="1.5";}
if ($rater_rating >= 2  ){$rater_stars = "./img/4.jpg";$rater_stars_txt="2";}
if ($rater_rating >= 2.5){$rater_stars = "./img/5.jpg";$rater_stars_txt="2.5";}
if ($rater_rating >= 3  ){$rater_stars = "./img/6.jpg";$rater_stars_txt="3";}
if ($rater_rating >= 3.5){$rater_stars = "./img/7.jpg";$rater_stars_txt="3.5";}
if ($rater_rating >= 4  ){$rater_stars = "./img/8.jpg";$rater_stars_txt="4";}
if ($rater_rating >= 4.5){$rater_stars = "./img/9.jpg";$rater_stars_txt="4.5";}
if ($rater_rating >= 5  ){$rater_stars = "./img/10.jpg";$rater_stars_txt="5";}

So if I edit the value of the image to this.

if ($rater_rating <= 0  ){$rater_stars = "./img/0.jpg";$rater_stars_txt="Not Rated";}
if ($rater_rating >= 5){$rater_stars = "./img/1.jpg";$rater_stars_txt="5";}
if ($rater_rating >= 10  ){$rater_stars = "./img/2.jpg";$rater_stars_txt="10";}
if ($rater_rating >= 15){$rater_stars = "./img/3.jpg";$rater_stars_txt="15";}
if ($rater_rating >= 20  ){$rater_stars = "./img/4.jpg";$rater_stars_txt="20";}
if ($rater_rating >= 25){$rater_stars = "./img/5.jpg";$rater_stars_txt="25";}
if ($rater_rating >= 30  ){$rater_stars = "./img/6.jpg";$rater_stars_txt="30";}
if ($rater_rating >= 35){$rater_stars = "./img/7.jpg";$rater_stars_txt="35";}
if ($rater_rating >= 40  ){$rater_stars = "./img/8.jpg";$rater_stars_txt="40";}
if ($rater_rating >= 45){$rater_stars = "./img/9.jpg";$rater_stars_txt="45";}
if ($rater_rating >= 50  ){$rater_stars = "./img/10.jpg";$rater_stars_txt="50";}
if ($rater_rating >= 55){$rater_stars = "./img/11.jpg";$rater_stars_txt="55";}
if ($rater_rating >= 60  ){$rater_stars = "./img/12.jpg";$rater_stars_txt="60";}
if ($rater_rating >= 65){$rater_stars = "./img/13.jpg";$rater_stars_txt="65";}
if ($rater_rating >= 70  ){$rater_stars = "./img/14.jpg";$rater_stars_txt="70";}
if ($rater_rating >= 75){$rater_stars = "./img/15.jpg";$rater_stars_txt="75";}
if ($rater_rating >= 80  ){$rater_stars = "./img/16.jpg";$rater_stars_txt="80";}
if ($rater_rating >= 85){$rater_stars = "./img/17.jpg";$rater_stars_txt="85";}
if ($rater_rating >= 90  ){$rater_stars = "./img/18.jpg";$rater_stars_txt="90";}
if ($rater_rating >= 95){$rater_stars = "./img/19.jpg";$rater_stars_txt="95";}
if ($rater_rating >= 100  ){$rater_stars = "./img/20.jpg";$rater_stars_txt="100";}

Then how would I change the value of each vote?

[dtown1]

So if this code determines to the sum of all votes...

if(is_file($rater_filename)){
 $rater_file=fopen($rater_filename,"r");
 $rater_str="";
 $rater_str = fread($rater_file, 1024*8);
 if($rater_str!=""){
  $rater_data=explode($rater_end_of_line_char,$rater_str);
  $rater_votes=count($rater_data)-1;
  $rater_sum=0;
  foreach($rater_data as $d){
   $d=explode("|",$d);
   $rater_sum+=$d[0];
  }
  $rater_rating=number_format(($rater_sum/$rater_votes), 2, '.', '');
 }
 fclose($rater_file);
}else{
 $rater_file=fopen($rater_filename,"w");
 fclose($rater_file);
}

How can I change it from getting the average of all votes to just adding the votes? I think I got the code right for outputting the correct image for tallied votes.

[dtown1]

I think I figured this out...

What ever your solution is it will be mathmatical rather than breaking DRY. The reason this may be hard for you as it breaks that principal making it a lot harder to comprehend for those who did not write it, as the question when reading other peoples code is what is different. The more that appears the same the harder it is to see what is different.
When you come back to it it may be the same for you as it requires recollection to be easy.

I speak from experience on this as the project I am working at the moment is a search engine simlar to jobserve and due to all the copy paste monkeys at the view level means a 3 day task is 2 weeks. Unless the copy paste junk is dealt with then it will just get worse.

My tip to you is when you find something hard ask yourself why is it hard. Just bad code or lack of knowledge.

I know you probably did not write this but all code that breaks DRY should be killed ASAP for your sanity 😉

I can't really read your question as I am code blind from all the code monkey stuff I have dealt with today who should of known better for their pay grade 🙂

I think my code is right but I am way to tired...

PHP_EOL is the constant for $rater_end_of_line_char though I would switch to a database of some kind else performance will get increasingly problematic, databases are designed to scale and have concurrent changes. Else use a CSV and use http://uk2.php.net/manual/en/function.fgetcsv.php

Is a file permission issue as by default it is undesirable to have it writable on everything.. if the name 'apache' is the service owner then

chown apache folderpath
chmod +755 folderpath

on the command line
That will guarantee any files created in that folder will be Apache writable/readable/executable and readable/executable for anyone else. Though if just readable for everyone else +744 ( 4=Read ,2=Write , 1=execute )
http://ss64.com/bash/chmod.html

Anyway you get the gist.. Can't test the file writing stuff as I am at my code limit for the day...

Thanks but now the script doesnt appear and I am getting a new error....

[dtown1]

With this code I no longer get any errors but the script is not working properly for some reason. It doesnt seem to be counting the points. I vote once and then it says point added but no points are added. Also if working properly the image would start and stay at 0 bars until it reached 5 votes but you can obviously see that it goes directly to the 95 votes image and says 0 votes beside it.
