Hi,
Depends on what type of server they are running,
You could add a script in there that takes a query string that will invoke a
set of
drop table statments,
followed by some file delete's
But as I have never seen the need to do this, I dont have any code that can
help you
But I am sure you will be able to just add a switch in the index page, that
takes something like this
if (isset($op) && $op == "deletesite")
{
// Drop sql tables
$conn = mysql_connect("host","user","pass");
$sql = "DROP TABLE tableName";
$rs = mysql_query($sql, $conn);
for each $file in $files
{
// some delete code
}
}
But yet again I would rather do this via legal means than destroy code.
my $0.02 worth
Thanks
Tommy

Subject: [PHP] Self Destruct code
Hi
I have a funny request; I wrote a system for a client and am rather
concerned that I am not going to receive payment for the work done. They
want me to hand over the code before they are willing to pay, so
basically I will be left at their mercy; if they don't pay, they will
still have a working version of the system...
So, is there any way I can inconspicuously code in some boo-boo's that
are time related etc. Something that will bomb the mysql tables or break
some code if it is not "unlocked" within a month etc.
I'm not sure if people out tjere might have existing safeguard tools
etc, so I'm open for suggestions.
PS, I know about Zend's encrypter, but since it will live on their
server, I don't think it will help much since they will need the
decrypter on there anyway right?
Thanks
