ill assume you already have chat. I prefer ajax with the chat.

so what you do is decide what your code is gonna be. then decide how its gonna operate (Example: /ban PLMasterSSB 2 day)

then you get the variable of your text box in the chat: $text

then your gonna use the substr() and explode() function:

---

<?php
if(substr($text, 0, 4) == "/ban" {
$substrvari = substr($text, 5);
// checks if there is text starting from the 5th character
$explode = explode(" ", $substrvari);
// explodes every set of words starting from the 5th character
//name the variables now
// PLMasterSSB
$explode2 = $explode[0];
// interger
$explode3 = $explode[1];
// time measure
$explode4 = $explode[2];

// but then if you were gonna do the ban command like above you need to use the NOW() and DATE_ADD function

MySQL_query("UPDATE register SET banneduntil=DATE_ADD(banneduntil, INTERVAL interger TimeMeasure) WHERE username='PLMasterSSB'";

// but actually you replace the "interger" and "TimeMeasure" with the variables $explode3 for "interger" and $explode4 for "TimeMeasure"


MySQL_query("UPDATE register SET banneduntil=DATE_ADD(banneduntil, INTERVAL $explode3 $explode4) WHERE username='PLMasterSSB'";
}
?>

I know I probably didn't explain this good but the part about the substr() and explode() is the part you really need to know.

Upgrade to mysqli so that all your work isn't ruined if your host updates the PHP version.
