Found this which is interesting and helpful to me. As i'm using it on my website that I was creating lately.
Usually if we want to retrive currency rate every day, we either
1. create a database to store the currency rate
2. using currency feed from 3rd party - which always need $$
3. using
google currency conversion - free~~:)
Free things are always good. Seem's I'm lazy to update the currency rate database everyday, and I don't think my boss will pay for a latest updated currency feed, I decided to go for the google currency conversion.
Lucky I found this site -
Currency conversion in PHP by Tudor . Cool ~ It is a script to call search on google currency to run a search on the google.
But I still to need so it cater for my requirements - to round up the figure without decimal points. Due to the result it return from the function is a string variable, not a number. And there is extra space in between. I need to remove the space and round up the number. Here are the codes extra I had put in.
File: exchange_rate.php
Line: the line before the return statement.
$matches[1]=round((float)str_replace(" ","",$matches[1]),0);
This function need to run 20++ times on my website. Because it's a table or values. So the processing speed will be abit slow compare to normal website. I have also added a ajax type loading image -
Ajaxload.info as if it really loads from some where. Its a useful site where you can select the type and color you want for the animated image and it's Free. Just a trick to let people know why is the page loading is slow. Rather to let them wait for a blank page and they might switch if off.
Here is the view on the new office. I'm wondering why there is no leafs on the tree? Malaysia doesn't have autumn but this tree looks like those autumn trees where all the leafs where gone.
Still a total mess on the office. The office is a duplex unit. It consist 2 levels in one unit. We are taking the upper space and the ground is another office. The stairs are in circular motion to the top level. Looks cool. But need to be extreemly careful when we are wearing skirts.
The office theme is in black or white. Most of the furniture are in black. I find this lamp is so beautiful. Plain, simple and vintage. And the owner install for us free of charge.
But it is painful to go to work as I need to switch trains and walk more to reach this new office. 
Eric Birthday today. We have carrot cake with cheese. One of my favourite.
