Hi Guys, I Have this code to connect to the XML document on our FShost server, but it is not displaying each player, only one...if anyone could edit to suit, or explain to me why this is happening it would be great. <?php // XML Page $feed_url = "http://64.22.78.67:98/xml"; # INITIATE CURL. $curl = curl_init(); # CURL SETTINGS. curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_URL,"$feed_url"); curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1); curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, 0); # GRAB THE XML FILE. $xmlX = curl_exec($curl); curl_close($curl); # SET UP XML OBJECT. # Use either one of these, depending on revision of PHP. # Comment-out the line you are not using. …

Courtesy of Ohloh.net: Ohloh phpVMS Code Analysis A summary: 48,000+ lines of code (all written by me, except for the libraries) 11 person years @ 55k/year = project cost of $627,611 if you hired someone to write it 73% of the code is in PHP, the rest a jumble of Javascript, HTML, CSS 700+ code commits Thought it was some cool stats. Of course, it's mute without this community. Thanks everyone! More to come

I've never been that much into the financial stuff of a VA, but it occurs to me there is one form of expense we don't have. One that is a percent of the gross revenue...for taxes and the like. I'm not sure, but I don't think it would be a major coding problem.

I've been looking at some of the pireps and I am seeing things like this. Fuel Price 34582.1 This is the price of fuel, $ per lbs I have been going with the default price whe I creat routes, I'm assuming that the figure shown is the total cost of fuel, not the price per lb.

I just imported some routes, and it would appear that the calculated distances are a bit excessive. For example the distance from PHNL to RJAA is 3886 miles, but the system is calculating 17944. It looks like the problem occurs as one crosses the international date line. OMG103 PHNL (07:00 UTC) RKPK (16:30 UTC) M T W R F S B767-300ER (OMG763) 17318.1 0 P (0/1000) OMG102 PHNL (07:00 UTC) RJGG (15:00>UTC) M T W R F S B767-300ER (OMG763) 17825.3 0 P (0/800) OMG101 PHNL (07:00 EST) RJOO (15:30 EST) M T W R F S B767-300ER (OMG763) 17750.4 0 P (0/900) OMG100 PHNL (07:00 EST) MMMX (14:30 EST) M T W R F S B767-300ER (OMG763) 3812.58 0 P (0/900) OMG9…

Hello all, Working on my virtual airline. I will like to know some stuff. ¿Why do we admins have to creat a shedule, if when we are flying with FSacars, the route is not show when we get online at FSacars? Do we first have to shedule the flight somewhere, so we can have to complete information in the FSacars? Do pilots have access to the Sheduling from the VA ? Where can they access to it. Thanks,

Dear readers, FlyZen has recently come back from the dead and I have once again begun the development process. But if you haven't seen my previous logo's, then you don't know that I'm not Picasso when it comes to graphical development. My talents lie with SSS and other web based development. Thus when it came time to work out a logo for the 'New' FlyZen....I hit a stump...the font. I created a slew of different versions that I want the communities opinions on. The color plate will remain the same as seen in the examples. Instructions: After viewing each, please tell me which one you liked best. If you did not like any of them please leave recommendations. Im really goi…

As you may know, my VA's website has been down for a few months now. I have been trying free hosting companys non stop and trying to install phpVMS on the hosting but non of them seem to work. I can get the first installation page when you fill in the MySQL database info but can't get further than that. It doesn't allow me to. I don't know if its an issue with phpVMS, but it worked a while ago so I am assuming not. I was just wondering if somebody would be kind enough to give us free hosting for a few months, I hope it wont streach out too long but at the moment my webpage is quite rubbish, I just have a temporary website. I would require a panel account because I am wish…

Ok recently I have come once again upon the flying tigers group. If you arent familiar with them they create and run simulated real world airlines such as cathay, JAL etc. Now the only difference that I have seen between their sites and other simulated real world airlines is a notice at the bottom ( For Flight Simulation purposes only. Not a commercial site. Not affiliated or endorsed by any airline. 2002-2009 Name VA - All rights reserved). Now I have contacted a few airlines in the past about using their name ( some that the flying tigers have) and they said that using their name is prohibited and will result ina cease and desist. Ive looked into trademark and copyrigh…

Well as i was checking out the backend part of phpVMS i noticed how you can add custom sidebars and basically change the whole inner layout to your website. If you go to your Core>>templates and navigate threw there, You can change the layout or add anything to your pages. It came in handy for me because i needed to add a teamspeak block. Be sure to backup anything you edit though.

Hi Guys, Just incase any of you haven't heard, AVSIM was recently taken down by hackers, which in effect destroyed their complete forum, and downloads databases. These guys have been running for 13 years now. Here is the BBC link. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/8049780.stm AVSIM have setup a temporary forum in the meantime, until they get their site redeveloped. Hope you guys don't mind me posting this here; but i feel it is a great loss to the FS community. http://linux.myalbemarle.org/forums/index.php -James
