Love the idea. Will definitely look into it. Currently I'm trying to make the forum look better aesthetically as priority number one. Then I have some big plans for this site. Definitely like this idea though!

Sorry for the double post but I have some code, I'll look at it more tomorrow. Basically right now you can see it working on http://162.248.5.147/info.php I have it getting the latest price from poloniex and cryptsy then averaging them. I also have the latest from btc-e and bitstamp to give me a price in USD for DRK. The google currency conversion doesn't do anything yet but it's there so the ground work is set up. Here is my code so far:
feel free to tip me DRK
PHP:
<?php
$cryptsyResponse = file_get_contents('http://pubapi.cryptsy.com/api.php?method=singlemarketdata&marketid=155');
$decoded = json_decode($cryptsyResponse);
$cryptsyPrice = (double)$decoded->return->markets->DRK->lasttradeprice;
$poloniexResponse = file_get_contents('https://poloniex.com/public?command=returnTicker');
$temp = json_decode($poloniexResponse, true);
$poloniexPrice = (double)$temp['BTC_DRK'];
if (empty($poloniexPrice))
{
$priceInBTC = floatval($cryptsyPrice);
}
if (empty($cryptsyPrice))
{
$priceInBTC = floatval($poloniexPrice);
}
if (!empty($poloniexPrice) && !empty($cryptsyPrice))
{
$priceInBTC = (floatval($poloniexPrice) + floatval($cryptsyPrice)) / 2;
}
echo "BTC/DRK " . $priceInBTC;
$amount = urlencode(100);
$from_Currency = urlencode(USD);
$to_Currency = urlencode(GBP);
$get = file_get_contents("https://www.google.com/finance/converter?a=$amount&from=$from_Currency&to=$to_Currency");
$get = explode("<span class=bld>",$get);
$get = explode("</span>",$get[1]);
$converted_amount = preg_replace("/[^0-9\.]/", null, $get[0]);
$BTCeTicker = file_get_contents('https://btc-e.com/api/2/btc_usd/ticker');
$BTCeDecoded = json_decode($BTCeTicker);
$BTCePrice = (double)$BTCeDecoded->ticker->avg;
$bitstampTicker = file_get_contents('https://www.bitstamp.net/api/ticker');
$bitstampDecoded = json_decode($bitstampTicker, true);
$bitstampPrice = (double)$bitstampDecoded['last'];
$bitcoinPrice = (floatval($bitstampPrice) + floatval($BTCePrice)) / 2;
$priceDRKUSD = $priceInBTC * $bitcoinPrice;
echo "<br>";
echo "USD/DRK " . $priceDRKUSD;

Fantastic Work! After I polish this site up this week, I'll be adding it in the header.
Very cool idea, thanks LZeppelin, funny my son's new fascination is the Hindenburg, LOL (Yes I know the band )
I sent you a dark, it's not much but I don't have much Let us know if we can use this on other sites. I'm planning on selling my husband's short stories for DarkCoin just to get attention for a novel he wrote. But it's not finished yet It'd be nice to have this on the site though
You must not have your darksend beta up and running, LOL. It didn't send, so I did it again. Hope you get it

Thanks! I'd love it to be used elsewhere. I made some improvements to the script (I also re-imaged my VPS so the live demo probably didn't work
) anyway here is the code:I have it broken up into 3 files because that's how the caching tutorial I followed had it but you can put everything in one file if you want.
main.php is:
PHP:
<?php
include('top-cache.php');
$cryptsyResponse = file_get_contents('http://pubapi.cryptsy.com/api.php?method=singlemarketdata&marketid=155');
$decoded = json_decode($cryptsyResponse);
$cryptsyPrice = (double)$decoded->return->markets->DRK->lasttradeprice;
$poloniexResponse = file_get_contents('https://poloniex.com/public?command=returnTicker');
$temp = json_decode($poloniexResponse, true);
$poloniexPrice = (double)$temp['BTC_DRK'];
if (empty($poloniexPrice))
{
$priceInBTC = floatval($cryptsyPrice);
}
if (empty($cryptsyPrice))
{
$priceInBTC = floatval($poloniexPrice);
}
if (!empty($poloniexPrice) && !empty($cryptsyPrice))
{
$priceInBTC = (floatval($poloniexPrice) + floatval($cryptsyPrice)) / 2;
}
echo "BTC/DRK " . $priceInBTC;
$amount = urlencode(100);
$from_Currency = urlencode(USD);
$to_Currency = urlencode(GBP);
$get = file_get_contents("https://www.google.com/finance/converter?a=$amount&from=$from_Currency&to=$to_Currency");
$get = explode("<span class=bld>",$get);
$get = explode("</span>",$get[1]);
$converted_amount = preg_replace("/[^0-9\.]/", null, $get[0]);
$BTCeTicker = file_get_contents('https://btc-e.com/api/2/btc_usd/ticker');
$BTCeDecoded = json_decode($BTCeTicker);
$BTCePrice = (double)$BTCeDecoded->ticker->avg;
$bitstampTicker = file_get_contents('https://www.bitstamp.net/api/ticker');
$bitstampDecoded = json_decode($bitstampTicker, true);
$bitstampPrice = (double)$bitstampDecoded['last'];
if (empty($bitstampPrice))
{
$bitcoinPrice = floatval($BTCePrice);
}
if (empty($BTCePrice))
{
$bitcoinPrice = floatval($bitstampPrice);
}
if (!empty($BTCePrice) && !empty($bitstampPrice))
{
$bitcoinPrice = (floatval($bitstampPrice) + floatval($BTCePrice)) / 2;
}
$priceDRKUSD = $priceInBTC * $bitcoinPrice;
echo "<br>";
echo "USD/DRK " . $priceDRKUSD;
include('bottom-cache.php');
?>top-cache.php is:
PHP:
<?php
$url = $_SERVER["SCRIPT_NAME"];
$break = Explode('/', $url);
$file = $break[count($break) - 1];
$cachefile = 'cached-'.substr_replace($file ,"",-4).'.html';
$cachetime = 90;
// Serve from the cache if it is younger than $cachetime
if (file_exists($cachefile) && time() - $cachetime < filemtime($cachefile)) {
echo "<!-- Cached copy, generated ".date('H:i', filemtime($cachefile))." -->\n";
include($cachefile);
exit;
}
ob_start(); // Start the output buffer
?>bottom-cache.php is:
PHP:
<?php
// Cache the contents to a file
$cached = fopen("$cachefile", 'w');
fwrite($cached, ob_get_contents());
fclose($cached);
ob_end_flush(); // Send the output to the browser
?>You need write permission in the script's directory for the caching to work, which I highly recommend without it you will get banned with any kind of serious load for making too many api calls. Right now the cache is refresh every 90 seconds. This can be used for any other alt with minor code tweaks. Also I have vestigial google currency conversion code in there so you could trivially add currencies.
Sadly this forum software while flashy and sleek does not give you direct access to the templates in PHP rather just in html so for use on this site this has to be re-implemented in javascript, which I might try to help with.
Edit: Actually the name is for LullabyZeppelin, I was looking for a cool screen name on a random generator and it generated that. I liked it and started using it but found it was to long for a bunch of places so I started going by Lzeppelin
Edit2: Great idea, I love short stories especially ones of the mindfuck variety

See? I don't know it all! LullabyZeppelin, that's actually very cool
I found this story my hubby wrote on an old drive. written a while ago. we used to play anarchy online, and that was the theme. It's a fan fiction I guess, but fun! maybe you'd take a look?

Ah, AO... That was a fun, if slightly odd, game.... Is it still running?

Lzeppelin I know I'm bumping a seriously old thread but I haven't forgot about this. It's still something I'd like to incorporate somehow.
Here's my take on the code before caching. (Just a quick concept)
It still would need to be cached and have some error checking but it's definitly possible to add at a later date in a form of a widget or header similar to the admin panel header.
