Creating Self Expiring Alphanumeric Id In php
Question by Robert Lowery
I am creating a self expiring id, alphanumeric which can expire after a set time frame.
But i don’t know how to do it in php.
Answer by Starx
SET a timestamp with all the alphanumeric ID’s.
$id = array(id => 'id', "timeframe" => '23435476575');
Then check, when you need to.
if($id['timeframe'] < time()) {
echo "expired";
}
