[PHP] creating a mailbot in php
Greetings, I have been trying to come up with a script in PHP to take an email and do a little parsing and upload the data into a mysql database. However I have had a couple of glitches. Would someone be so nice to send me the code to just get it to do something (like update a counter or anything) simple that I will be able to tell if the email is getting to the script or not? My host has an option that allows you to easily make an alias [by way of an html form] that will send emails to certain files and I can not tell if it is not working or if my script is not working. I have tried to read around and could not figure it out. I wish I could RTFM but I cant find one. The few pages I found on the net do not give a good enough explaination.

[PHP] php, mysql How to do a random selection and limit response?
greetings, I would like to do a random selection in mysql [select * from members order by rand() limit $limit] and then I'd like to insert the items selected into a table [named already_selected] with a datetime stamp to make sure one item is only sleceted once over a defined period of time. Would it be best to do the select and then an insert? Would it be best to do a left join in The select statement? Can anyone suggest a more efficient way?

[PHP] control panel--graphic question
Greetings, This is more of a graphic question For a program I am writting I need to have a control panel to display anything that may be wrong. I would like to use something like a stoplight so that it would be easily understood by a lay person. Does anyone have any comments as to what they have used? Also does anyone have a function/graphic that would be a stop light and changing the var would make it either show red, green, or yellow?
