PHP - Removing Spaces And Lines

This doesn't work:
Code: [Select]
<style type="text/css" media="all">@import url(style/'.$skin.'.css);</style>
$skin is = "Sky Blue";



If $skin is = "Sky Blue";

this works:
Code: [Select]
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style/Sky Blue.css">
It's because @IMPORTURL, Is there a php function that wraps a &20 for a space so it works on my $skin?

I made a form, like guestbook, and i dont wonna to write in mysql if in comment is just 1 or more spaces, no letters or numbers or chars, just space, how can i fix that?

I have a form which has a drop down menu select box, which retrives the makes of cars from a database, which once clicked submit will go to another page post that info. Then a if statment says if the variable that has been posted == a certain word that matches the one in the database then display content. However, my issue is when I have a car make such as "Land Rover" saved in the database as typed it just comes back with the final else statement.

In the 1st section I have included the form which is posting the information across and in the second I have the if statement. Any ideas of how to get around / make this work?

[
<form method="post" action="details.php" enctype="multipart/form-data">
                              <table class="search_nav">
                                 <tr>
                                    <td>
                                       <select name="manufacture" id="manufacture">
                                          <option value=" " selected="selected">Car Manufactures&nbsp;&nbsp;</option>
                                          ';
                                          $query = "SELECT DISTINCT make FROM cars ORDER BY make ASC";
                                          $result = mysql_query($query) or die ("Error in query: $query. ".mysql_error());                                             
                                          while ($row = @ mysql_fetch_array($result))
                                          {
                                              print '
                                                    <option value='.$row["make"].'>'.$row["make"].'</option>
                                                   ';
                                          }
                                       print '
                                    </select>

if ($manufactures == "Land Rover")

echo "test";

}

How can I block a text that contains only spaces?
Right now I have done

if ($body == "") {
die("<font color='red'><font size='15'><strong><center>Your post did not contain any text!");
}

But that's extremely insufficient, as any user can easily post "         "
Any ideas?

I am trying to use CURL on a site., to send SMS/TXT messages.

HERE IS THE CODE

Code: [Select]
$name = $_POST['name']; 
$emsg = $_POST['emsg'];

           $ch = curl_init("https://www.smsfun.com.au/api/login.php?mobile=emma&password=123456&send_to=$name&message=$emsg&send=1");
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
        $output = curl_exec($ch);       
        curl_close($ch);


Then i use my form like this

Code: [Select]
<form method="post" action="" value "">
  <p align="center"><strong><font color="#0000FF" size="5" face="Courier New, Courier, mono">MOBILE
    NO<br>
    <input name="name" type="text">
    </font></strong></p>
  <p align="center"><strong><font color="#0000FF" size="5" face="Courier New, Courier, mono">message</font><font color="#0000FF" size="5" face="Courier New, Courier, mono"><br>
    <textarea name="emsg" value "$emsg" rows="5" wrap="VIRTUAL"></textarea>
    </font></strong><br>
    <input type="submit" name="submit" value="SEND">
  </p>
</form>

This all works fine but if the user needs to put a space after a word i.e  "hello this is a test" this wont work only "hellothisisatest" will.

Am i missing somtink here? I tryed googleing etc cannot find the answer.

Please help

Thanks

How do I get directory names to display with spaces. My script sticks them into arrays just fine, but when trying to echo from a checkbox selection, it only displays the first word. How would I fix this?

When I sort it together then i can see mysql working, very strange.. Can anyone help?

I'm having some trouble with displaying my white space between words. I have a table that holds records for resumes, and the administrator can access each record and edit them. I have the record displayed in text boxes for editing, but the white space between words is not showing up. Only the first word will show up. I have tried changing the field type in the table to text or blob instead of varchar, and I have tried using the nl2br function when displaying the records, but that isn't working either. What am I doing wrong? Here is my edit page:

Code: [Select]
<?php

$applicant = "SELECT * FROM applicants WHERE id = '$_GET[id]'";
$applicant_res = mysql_query($applicant, $conn) or die(mysql_error());

$display_block = "<h3>Edit Entry</h3>
<p>To edit the entry, change any relevant information below:</p>

<form method=post action=update_U3IP.php><table>";

while ($applicants_list = mysql_fetch_array($applicant_res)){
$id = $applicants_list['id'];
$firstname = $applicants_list['firstname'];
$lastname = $applicants_list['lastname'];
$address = $applicants_list['address'];
$city = $applicants_list['city'];
$state = $applicants_list['state'];
$zip = $applicants_list['zip'];
$phone = $applicants_list['phone'];

I am using a standard form to mail script and have a few fields that I need to be required to be filled in.
This is working fine until someone enters a space character in a required field, which is being let thorugh.

How can I stop this? here the code for required fields -  I thought the trim function in the below would have taken care of this???

// This is because I originally had it require but too many people
// were used to Matt's Formmail.pl which used required instead.
if ($required)
   $require = $required;
// handle the required fields
if ($require) {
   // seperate at the commas
   $require = ereg_replace( " +", "", $require);
   $required = split(",",$require);
   for ($i=0;$i<count($required);$i++) {
      $string = trim($required[$i]);
      // check if they exsist
      if((!(${$string})) || (!(${$string}))) {
         // if the missing_fields_redirect option is on: redirect them
         if ($missing_fields_redirect) {
            header ("Location: $missing_fields_redirect");
            exit;
         }
         $require;
         $missing_field_list .= "<b><font color=\"#990000\">Missing: $required[$i]</font></b><br>\n";
      }
   }
   // send error to our mighty error function
   if ($missing_field_list)
      print_error($missing_field_list,"missing");
}

How can I check if the text entered in a textarea field equals the text I have stored in a mysql table?

Code: [Select]
$submitted_description = trim(mysqli_real_escape_string($db,$_POST['description']));

$query = "SELECT description FROM pets";
$result = $db->query($query);
$row = $result->fetch_assoc();
$sql_description = $row['description'];
Here's what they echo:

Quote

submitted_description:
Testing...\r\n\r\n1\r\n\r\n2\r\n\r\n3

sql_description:
Testing... 1 2 3


I tried adding the following to get rid of \r\n from $submitted_description but they both still don't equal but echo the same text.

Code: [Select]
$submitted_description = str_replace(array("\r","\n",'\r','\n'),' ', $submitted_description);
They following code only matches when no spaces are entered in the textarea field.

Code: [Select]
if($submitted_description == $sql_description)
{
     echo "Match!";
}
else
{
     echo "Don't Match!";
}
How can this be done?

I also tried adding nl2br() to both variables but that didn't work either.

Hi, the problem that I have goes like this. If i do a regular Select query and display it in a table everything is there but if i am filling a input box of a form to use for modifying the values it does not return the entire value:

Exemple with the same value
in a table = product_name : Amd Athlon X2
In input field : Amd

Here is my code
Code: [Select]
<?
$sql = "SELECT * FROM tbl_product WHERE product_code = '$_POST[productcode]'";
$result = mysql_query($sql);
if(!$result){
die("Error running $sql:" . mysql_error());
}
?>


<?
 while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result))
 {
echo "
<form action='functions/moditem.php' method='post'>
<input type='hidden' name='productid' value=". $row['product_id'] .">
Product code : <input type='text' name='productcode' value=". $row['product_code'] ." /><br />
Product Name : <input type='text' name='productname' value=". $row['product_name'] ." /><br />
Product Price: <input type='text' name='productprice' value=". $row['product_price'] ." /><br />
<input type='submit' value='Modify' />
</form>
";
}

Ok so I'm still having problems. This is what I need:
I want a function to echo a message if a username does not pass my requirments.

  - Only letters and / or numbers
 - Must start with a letter (not a number)
 - No spaces

The current code is not working for me. Please help
Code: [Select]
}else if (!(eregi('/[A-Za-z0-9-]+',($_POST["username"])))){
echo "<p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><br />Must only contain numbers and letters and cannot exceed 10 characters.<p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><a href='javascript:javascript:history.go(-1)'>Click here to go back to previous page</a>";

I've got the following code:

echo <<<myStringEcho

<script src="$myPluginPath/jquery.dummy.js"></script>
myStringEcho;

The problem is that $myPluginPath already has a / character at the end, so I don't need to put it in above
But, I can't just remove it, otherwise I'll get $myPluginPathjquery.dummy.js

How can I insert and have no spaces?

Thanks

Hi - I'm using Wordpress gravity forms plugin. I'd like to force capitalise and remove the spaces within a specific field. This is what I have but its not working.  $_POST[$each] = strtoupper(rgpost($each)) works for making the characters capitals but adding && str_replace(' ', '', $each) after doens't work. What am I doing wrong? Thanks

add_action('gform_pre_submission_22', 'capitalize_fields');
function capitalize_fields($form){
      
        $fields_to_cap = array(
                     'input_64'
										);
        foreach ($fields_to_cap as $each) {
              
                $_POST[$each] = strtoupper(rgpost($each)) && str_replace(' ', '', $each);
				        }
        
        return $form;
} ?>
