Version Checker

Version: 1.2

A simple script that lets you know whether your version of a product is up to date by looking at the string given in the URL . This script is designed to be simple, easy to use and light-weight.

In your program somewhere (the program doesn’t need to be web-based at all) you place a link to this script with the current version on your host:

http://www.yoursite.com/product/version.php?v=1.5.3

The idea is you simple drag and drop the files into the ‘product’ folder and when ‘version.php’ loads up, it will tell you if your version is up to date, will need updating or is invalid. All you do is open up the configuration file and change the default version to the current version of your product.

New to version 1.2, this script now supports version_compare() which means that URL versions won’t need to be strict numerical values, see the demo for more information.
