PHP - Content To Html *help Please*

Hi,

I will start off trying to explain what I am trying to make the best I can. What I want to create is a script that gets the gold value from this website: http://www.lbma.org.uk/pages/index.cfm?page_id=46&title=current_statistics and then save it to a variable which I will use to calculate values of different gold karats.

Here is the content in bold I need on the website I linked:
Quote

LONDON GOLD FIXING
          USD             GBP              EUR
AM   1588.00     1005.127      1251.083
PM   1589.50     1004.741     1249.803




So what help do I need? Well, I don't expect you to figure out the calculating part for me but some help how to get that content pointed out above and save it to a variable is what I would appreciate getting some help with.

I don't know much PHP, only some and I have been trying to figure this out for a day now without any success.  I suppose php get contents and/or curl should be used here but I don't know how really. I would very much appreciate the help I can get on this.

Thank you!

I have a form that users input user name, password, and email... all writes to csv fine.  My problem is I need to concatenate a a string with a variable and some html code will preserving the html when written to the csv..

I need the csv to be this

username,password,email,user,category,text with http://sub.domain..com/splash/,something,something

here's what i have

Code: [Select]
<?php
if($_POST['formSubmit'] == "Submit")

$varUserName = $_POST['username'];
$varPW = $_POST['PW'];
$varEmail = $_POST['email'];
{
$fs = fopen("testcsv.csv","a");
fputcsv($fs, array($varUserName,$varPW,$varEmail,"user","title",",category","some text '<a href="http://$varUserName.url.com/splash/>site.com</a>',));
fclose($fs);

exit;
}
?>
and of course I'm getting

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting ')' on line 9

Hey guys,

I'm a total newbie here, and just about as a new to php. 

My issue:
I have a very large .html file that contain multiple articles (I actually have a few of these, but we'll start with one for practicality).  The article titles are all wrapped in <h2> tags, there are 10 articles in one file.  The articles are very simple, just a title wrapped with <h2> and then a few paragraphs wrapped in <p> tags. 

What I want to know how to do:
I want to know if there's a way to open that file, and have each article saved as it's own .html or .txt document (the title & following paragraphs of each article).
Ultimately taking my 1 large file, and creating the subsequent 10 smaller files from the articles inside of it.

I am having trouble explaining this in text so I'll try to illustrate:
I have "Articles.html" - which contains (article1,article2,article3.. ..article10)
I want to split "Articles.html" and create "Article1.html", "Article2.html", "Article3.html", etc.

Is that possible?  Or am I looking at something far more complex than I can imagine at this point - perhaps something I'd be better off doing by hand?




Ultimately I intend to stick all these articles into a database, but that's the 2nd part of what I want to do (and I think will be the easier of the tasks).
Let me know if you need any additional information in the event my description above is unclear... I simply am having issues figuring out how to separate out the text into individual articles.

require_once 'phpSimpleHtmlDomClass.php'; $html = '<div> <div class="man">Name: madac</div> <div class="man">Age: 18 <div class="man">Class: 12</div> </div>' $name=$html->find('div[class="man"]', 0)->innertext; $age=$html->find('div[class="man"]', 1)->innertext; $cls=$html->find('div[class="man"]', 2)->innertext;

wanna get a text from each div class="man" but it didn't work because there is a missing closing div tag on 2nd line of html code. please help me to fix this.

thanks in advance.

Hi guys I need to be able to extract (into an array) the content between two tags "<!--" and "-->" in a string ($string).

I have       
$string = "<!--HELLO WORLD-->";
$tags = "/<!--(.*?)--!>/";
         preg_match($tags, $string, $matches);
         return $matches[1];

but it does not seem to work, (no error code, nothing).

Any help much appreciated,

Hi, I am building function to convert the db table to an XML file. But I want to retrieve the root node value from the FIRST row in that db table before I build a for loop to traverse that db table.

Let's say I have this table NodeInfo:
node_Id     source   target
======    =====  =====
 1               email     to
 2               to          toFirstName

pseudocode for what I want:
1) store root (the source field of table NodeInfo
2)for each entry in table NodeInfo, do:
     build XML
   END FOR-EACH

Any help much appreciated!

Hi:

I have this code that - when added to a page  - works fine:
Code: [Select]
<div class=\"<?php echo (time() <= strtotime('4/17/2011 2:00:00 AM')) ?  'myUpcoming' : 'myPassed'; ?>\">
 
<span class=\"myGameDate\">April 16:</span> <span class="myGameDateRed">Home</span> vs Baltimore

</div>

It's a schedule that will display one CSS style before the date, and another CSS style after the date. Works fine on the homepage.

I am trying to add it to an include navigation file, so I can add it to all the pages like this:

myNav.php
Code: [Select]
function spSchedule() {
$spSchedule =
"
<div class=\". echo time() ." <= strtotime("4/17/2011 2:00:00 AM") ? \"myUpcoming\" : \"myPassed\"; .\">
 
<span class=\"myGameDate\">April 16:</span> <span class=\"myGameDateRed\">Home</span> vs Baltimore

</div>         

";
return $spSchedule;
}

myPage.php:
Code: [Select]
<?php
include('include/myNav.php');
?>

...

<?php echo spSchedule(); ?>


What it is doing is writing "myUpcoming" to the page, and that's it.

What am I missing on this, please?

I want to display 50 results, theirfore I'm using a while loop to do so, the issue is, if $row consists of results lower then 50 (it will display them) and not display 50..so I'm trying to figure out a way so even if $row doesn't cosist of 50 i'll display what it has aswell as continue the $i (and for the rest display NO CONTENT).

I've come up with the following on the spot (not sure if it even would work) - but was wanting a better solution.

$i = 0;

$results = mysql_num_rows($result);
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
$i++;

echo $i .' CONTENT '.$row['name'].'<br />';
}

if ($result < 50) {

for($i <= 50 - $result; $i++) {
echo $i .' NO CONTENT<br />';
}
}

There's many options available for downloading a URL - but I'm stuck.

I've looked through all the ones I know, but none seem to pay attention to partial content.

I'm trying to retrieve a URL that gives the following header:
HTTP/1.1 206 Partial Content
Content-Range:   bytes 0-100000/631723

As you can see it dishes out the file in 100,000 byte chunks.

Trouble is, when I use any method in PHP, ie file_get_contents, fopen, or even cURL, none of these continue on after retrieving the 100,000 bytes.

End result, I have a 100,000 byte file.

What I need is to get the PHP script to grab all the data, in the example above, all 631,723 bytes.

How can I do this?

Hi all,

Maybe someone can help me with this, I am looking to copy specific content from one website to another automatically. So when ever one website updates the certain content the other site is automatically updated with it to. I have tried using file_get_contents but this wasnt working. Does anyone have any ideas? Im looking to copy https://annablais.scentsy.us/Home starting at line 270, the end is determined by how many Parties there are.

Thanks all

Hello,  

I have html files with this format
Code: [Select]
.....
<!--ImageSection--><div class="image"><!--ImageSection--><div align="top"><b>Image Link</b>
<br />http://www.something.com
<br />http://www.another_url
<br /></div><!--ImageEnd--></div><!--ImageEnd--></div>
.....
I tried to get the content of a <div> with this code:
Code: [Select]
preg_match_all('/<div class=\"image\">\<!--ImageSection-->\<div align=\"top\">([^`]*?)<\/div>/', $html, $imglinks);
foreach ($imglinks as $imglink){
echo $imagelink;
}
but it returns empty, where did I wrong? 

Is there a way that I can tweak the following code so that the root nodes have different names?

At the moment the xml file is creating a root node for each booking called booking so when I take the xml into flash it is calling it badly formed xml due to the repitition of <booking></booking>


//sql_query
$table_id = 'booking'; 
$query = "SELECT * FROM $table_id WHERE (booking.bookingDate = curDate()) AND roomID = 1 ORDER BY startTime";
$room1 = mysql_query($query);


//create a new DOM document
$doc = new DOMDocument('1.0');

//create root element
$root = $doc->createElement('root');
$root = $doc->appendChild($root);

//process one row at at time
while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($room1)){

//add node for each row
$occ = $doc->createElement($table_id);
$occ = $doc->appendChild($occ);

//add achild for each field
foreach ($row as $fieldname => $fieldvalue){

     $child = $doc->createElement($fieldname);
     $child = $occ->appendChild($child);


$value = $doc->createTextNode($fieldvalue);
     $value = $child->appendChild($value);
}
}

   $xml_string = $doc->saveXML();

echo $xml_string;

mysql_free_result($room1);
?>

I've used get_file_contents() before but it seems like it took a long time to load... what is the best or most efficient way to get certain content from a webpage? Like all the posts on a single forum page for example, without loading any images or styles, just the "source"
