PHP - Close

I am trying to create a login menu where senior salesman get redirected to one page and salesman get redirected to another.

Hi,   Ive been trying to come up with a simple solution. I run a scheduled task every 1 minute, it checks for a certain message in a MySQL DB. If the message is there then i need to access a link such as:   https://www.somedoma...00000&body=This is the SMS to be sent&plaintext=1   This essentially sends an SMS to a user. both the recipient and the body need to be a variable.   Is there a way then to get PHP to load/run the link without actually opening a browser?   ive been trying to check out allow_url_fopen but i cant seem to find any examples of how this works. Any info or pointers would be great thanks.

Trying to figure out my game map. Here is what's going on: Any player can view themself on the map and also the user at this location: x:50, y50. For some reason the map will not show anyone else.

If you would like to see it, just go to http://www.gglegends.net/map.php and login with the credentials below (only 1 user can be logged in at a time):

Credential for Demo Account - (I have restricted areas that affect others gameplay and areas that change the demo account)
Username: demo
Password: pass

Other map locations to try out:
x:60, y:60
x:19, y:79
x:98, y:72
x:75, y:51
x:97, y:26
x:66, y:12


Here is the complete code to my map:

Hello,

I'm having a bit of trouble with the following:

<?php echo htmlentities('<img src="<?php bloginfo('template_directory');?>/images/my-image.png" / rel="nofollow">'); ?>

As you can see, I am trying to use php to call the template directory but it isn't being recognized as a php statement.  I'm new to php and I'm pretty certain my syntax is not right.  Can someone provide a bit of guidance?  Thank you.

Quint

hope i'm in the right place.
