php help i'm stuck!

<?php


/* Start the session */
session_start();

/* Defines how long the maximum amount of time the session can be inactive. */
define("MAX_IDLE_TIME", 3);

function getOnlineUsers(){

    if ( $directory_handle = opendir( session_save_path() ) ) {
    $count = 0;
       
        while ( false !== ( $file = readdir( $directory_handle ) ) ) {
           
            if($file != '.' && $file != '..'){

                if(time()- fileatime(session_save_path() . '\\' . $file) < MAX_IDLE_TIME * 60) {
                $count++;
}
}
closedir($directory_handle);

return $count;

}else {
return false; 
}
}
}

echo 'Number of online users: ' . getOnlineUsers() . '<br />';

/*?????  I guess $found should let it continue to the path it was already pointed at    ??????????*/


// check if count is good
  $found = false;
  foreach($count < 12) {
       $found = true;
}
if (!$found) {
    redirect("<meta http-equiv='refresh' content='0;url=http://www.google.com'>");
}

The fuck are you trying to do?

Strange. I don't see any code at all.

trying to limit viewer numbers to a page.

Why the fuck do you want to do that?

Yes, you are stuck; stuck in a world of mediocrity with PHP...

to avoid viewer peaks on streams

I'll say it here too.

$count = getOnlineUsers();
if($count!==false&&$count>12){
header("Location: http://www.google.com");
}

Must be done before any output eg that echo.

I think you're looking for mod_bruteforceandignorance.

$count = getOnlineUsers();
if($count!==false&&$count>12){
header("Location: http://www.google.com");
}

I'm still thinking about this. I don't need the echo though that was just a check.

Good gracious, helping people who post PHP without the code tags. My, /prog/'s gone downhill.

I don't blame you for not reading the thread, but there has been no help given.

to avoid viewer peaks on streams
On what kind of streams? Video streams? This can't be done reliably with PHP. HTTP requests are supposed to be atomic (sans hacks like comet). Probably what you want to do is limit the number of connections to the streaming service.
