the new request system requires that you be logged in to submit a request. there are many reasons for the new system: getting rid of perl cgi files and dbm databases and replacing them with more processor and space efficient php/sql. also, there was a ban list unique for the request list, which is silly, it has now been dissolved, the global ban list taking its place. with the new system, there is no longer a problem of people entering false emails. please let me know if there are any bugs!! its a brand new system and nothing ever works right the first time, on the net.

Maybe a tad off topic, but how can you see when a file you uploaded is succedfully uploaded? Also, does it automattically make an entry in the search/download database? And does it delete the request for the song. Btw: I uploaded 'Shine OP - Hellsing' Edit: I found a bug (or something like that). I searched for 'shine'earlier to check if the file had already been uploaded: no results. I searched it again (after uploading) and it did give me search result (only in red = broken link). But I'm nor sure wether that is file I uploaded since the artist field does not match with the file I uploaded, does your database already have info on artists/song names or how does it work? Edit2: one more bug I found on the 'search page'. I was looking for songs from 'Kimi ga Nozomu Eien' strangely enough 'kimi ga' did work but 'kimi eien' didn't. My guess is that you replace spaces by a '?' instead of a '%' or '*' ;) |

When you upload a song, if you get bounced back to where you came from, then the upload worked. however, the song is put in my drop box, and is not accessable using the mp3 search. thanks for the upload by the way! i will get it online as soon as possible. as far as the search engine, i searched for "kimi ga" and it worked fine. the way i have the search implimented is using the oracle "LIKE" oporator. that is to say, if you were matching up only with the name of the song, it would execute the command: SELECT * FROM amusic WHERE name LIKE '%$filter%';

exactly my point '%$pattern%' wont do the trick. The search string I used (which DIDN'T work) was kimi eien. Basically you need a simple string replacer where spaces are replaced by a % so that it searches for: '%kimi%eien%' (which does give results) instead of '%kimi eien%' (which doesnt work) |
