Hi guys, I need to ask a big favour.

My boss wants me to set up hosting, etc and get each site a coming soon page up, so it start getting domain authority until the sites are ready to go live.

I was wondering if anybody has a simple bit of code of some kind that can pull the website url and put it on the page?

So far this is my page (in HTML)

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title>website url here</title>
<style type="text/css">
body {background-color:706F6F;}
h1{text-align:center;font-family:Helvetica;color:FFFFFF;}
p {text-align:center;font-family:Helvetica;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;color:FFFFFF;}
</style>

</head>

<body>
<h1>Website Url Here</h1>
<p>Coming Soon</p>
</body>
</html>

whereever website url here is, I want the url to be auto pulled, so I dont have to edit 140 index files...

I am even willing to pay somebody a small fee for their time/script/effort via paypal

Thank you in advance

I pretty sure what you are asking is done automaically when the hosting package is created / goes live with a lot of host providers.

Mine does.

no, its for a client of his. But I am asking, on behalf of myself - who has been tasked with this massively laborious job. I am sure there is a simpler way then editing 140 index.html files, but I am no script guru.

I understand it may seem cheeky, hence why I am willing to pay a small fee for what maybe just a simple script somebody could give me (which they may have just hanging around), so I can just upload the file to all the hosting packages, rather than editing the files, then uploading them.

Cheers

I think a reward system in the forum like that would be a great addition for people who really do help .

I have offered spit a bit of cash for some beers or cookies, but he politely declined

That's quite a good idea. Be good to have it implemented into the forum as a Paypal donation or something.

Based on the response to my beer link, I can't see it catching on... unless I just give really bad advice.

Edit: The +Rep button doesn't get used anywhere near as much as it should either. I try to Rep people when I see a good answer, but a lot of people disappear once they've had their questions answered without even bothering to say "yup, that worked" - which makes the thread less useful for the next bod with the same question.

Thinking about it a bit further, that sort of micropayment system would only really stand a chance of working if there was a clear way to identify Q&A posts, and accompany them with something like (pseudocode):

$user has asked $nq questions and rewarded $na answers
