Im making billing software and its going to be encrypted with zend, i was wondering for the certificates if they should have to replace a certificate file every year or have the script contact my server seeing if their license is still active.

Also I was wondering how I can make a custom mysql connection error page so instead of showing Cannot Connect to Local host '10061' but instead make my own custom mysql connect error page.

or have the script contact my server seeing if their license is still active.

if customers knew that there is a spyware in your product, they will complain! beside it's not a good idea since it will slow down your script because it will connect to your server and wait for reply and then start executing the script if the license is valid !! so what will happen if your server went down!? the script wont work .. also it will be a load on your server to do that ..
so it's not recommended..

about MySQL errors, you can avoid the warrnings by setting error_reporting lever to 0 or 1 ..

when ever you want to use a MySQL function do it like this:

PHP Code:

//no errors shall pop..

error_reporting(0);



mysql_query($sql)or

die('ERROR MESSAGE HERE');



mysql_connect()or

die('ANOTHER ERROR MESSAGE HERE'); 

so it will show the error message you write if anything goes wrong ..
