I would usually either cut out the time section and use it to work out who's older or I would use it to order a group of events, e.g.:
User1 Logged In
User2 Posted A Comment
As a rough example. To be honest, I was really just making it for fun and to experiment with not limited variables passed to the function.
It's good, the story-line is a little weak (as at the end of the day it's the same as racing except one-on-one most of the time) but I definitely enjoy it.
If a Mario Kart style race is what you're after, this is what I'd recommend. The power-ups are pretty good (rockets, cannonballs, speed boosts, teleport (to name a few!)).
To add to Tiki Towers, it's one of those games I play when I have just a few minutes spare and not enough time for a race etc.
Tiki Towers is getting quite good actually. I don't really think about the physics but it's good fun. I found it a bit annoying until they released an update allowing you to scroll around the screen, so I'd definitely recommend it.
I wasn't sure about Brothers in Arms but decided to buy it anyway. Haven't regretted it AT ALL! It's very good, admittedly, the controls take a while to get used to but not as long as some of the reviews suggest (car is the hardest to control). There are three different interesting campaigns (all of which I've completed as it's not overly hard!). I would definitely recommend it!

XHTML elements must be in lowercase
Mmmm, I've got round the problem by doing:
echo "<body onload=" . $qt . "ajaxGenerate_Content('ajaxContent_generate','/Site/ajaxCon/" . $_GET['value'] . ".php?mthd=AJAX')" . $qt . ">";
Obviously with a case for if $_GET['value'] is not a recognised file, that way someone can link to a specific page with:
http://www.vasey.co.cc/Site/?value=Scripting
That's very true, another way to do it would be to add in a Javascript script to pages like this:
http://omega.neeq.net/home.php
So if the URL is that it will redirect them to:
http://omega.neeq.net/?page=/home.php
It's also a pain to make it work for Search Engine crawls...
Thanks jonesy :)
I'm starting to get the hang of it, so if you do need help, feel free to let me know...'course there are no guarantees that I can ACTUALLY help you!
Edit: I've added in:
if(xmlHttp.readyState!=4)
{
// Commands in this section of the script will be triggered when the content is being fetched, but has not come through yet.
// For example, you might want to put in:
// document.getElementById('example').innerHTML="**Content loading...please wait**";
}
This script is taken from my webpage which is currently in development - you can see the extent of even very basic AJAX here: http://www.vasey.co.cc/Site/
