Quizzer - Facebook Quiz App Creator

Phil Gibbons — Thu, 24 Jan 2008 12:03:44 EST

I've just released a new Facebook application called Quizzer. It's a full-featured Facebook quiz creator with support for making quizzes into their own applications. No coding knowledge is necessary to make your own application. You can put your own advertising on your quiz and make money off if it. Some quiz applications make hundreds of dollars a day! It is really quick and simple to make a quiz with Quizzer. Just writing out some good questions and adding some interesting pictures usually makes a quiz popular with very little work.

fBoxes 0.1 Released

Phil Gibbons — Thu, 27 Dec 2007 00:01:39 EST

fBoxes is a php class for creating Facebook-style movable boxes in FBML/FBJS. It only works on Facebook FBML pages right now, no normal HTML support (yet). Boxes are fully movable, they can be locked in place, layout changes are saved automatically, multiple sets of boxes can be put on a single page (just initiate a new fBoxes object with a different id)

It supports storing user layouts in either a flat file or MySQL database. If you are using MySQL, remember to do your mysql_connect() before calling the load/save functions.

The simple configuration is at the top of fboxes.php:

// path to your fboxes ajax save script

public $ajax_save_url = '';



// 0 for flat file, 1 for MySQL (you will have to do

// mysql_connect() yourself before calling any load or save functions)

public $db_type = 0;



// for flat file db, box id will be appended

public $db_file_path = './fboxes_store/boxes_';



// for mysql, name of table

//   CREATE TABLE fboxes_position (uid BIGINT UNSIGNED NOT NULL, 

//    id CHAR(16) NOT NULL, data TEXT NOT NULL, UNIQUE KEY (uid, id));

public $db_table_name = 'fboxes_position';

An example on how to use fBoxes is provided in the example_fboxes.php file.
