And then append it to r5include with this: Code: [Select] <?php $myFile = "r5include.html"; $fh = fopen($myFile, 'a') or die("can't open file"); $filename = 'temp.html'; $string = file_get_contents($filename); fwrite($fh,$string); fclose($fh); ?> So the question is is it possible? and if so how do I increment the record number?

Cheers Natasha Thomas I wanted to replace a strings in a large text file .. what would be the fastest way ?! e.g the text file contains .. INSERT INTO `subjects` VALUES (1, 'some text here', 'some text here', 'some text here'); INSERT INTO `subjects` VALUES (2, 'some text here', 'some text here', 'some text here'); INSERT INTO `subjects` VALUES (3, 'some text here', 'some text here', 'some text here'); INSERT INTO `subjects` VALUES (4, 'some text here', 'some text here', 'some text here'); INSERT INTO `subjects` VALUES (5, 'some text here', 'some text here', 'some text here'); I wanted to replace the string " VALUES (1, " with "VALUES (" in each line .. I'm new in PHP so any response would be much appreciated .. thanks Im dealing with html links in a database where I need to execute a small piece of php code. Well mysql doesnt execute php code thats held in a table. The easiest way for me to do this is just add the links without the code, & set up a function that will replace anything I set to for example in my case a link lookin like this: http://mysite.com/index.php?page=offers&blah=blah&sid= needs to look like this; http://mysite.com/index.php?page=offers&blah=blah&sid=<?php echo $_SESSION['login']; ?> so I would need a function like <?php $replace('sid=','sid=<?php echo $_SESSION['login'];?> ?> something like that. And I know its possible & I could create a function like this but honestly right now I am so tired after working 12 hours im lazy dont want to think to hard while I know there are a lot of people out there that have a function like this already. If you dont have one & dont feel like writing one for me could you atleast point me in the right direction so I dont have to think to hard?! Thanks!! what im trying to do is take a youtube embed code find the URL code for that video and remove all other parts of the code keeping only the URL of the video after i get the URL by it self then replace the http://www.youtube.com/ part of the URL with http://i2.ytimg.com/vi/ to do this i know that i need something like this to get the URL of the video http://www.youtube.com/((?:v|cp)/[A-Za-z0-9\-_=]+) but how to only return just the URL is something idk how to do then use str_replace http://www.youtube.com/(?:v|cp)/" with http://i2.ytimg.com/vi/ so in the end im asking if anyone know how to remove all other codes i dont want and only keep the URL this may have to be done using "regex" im not sure as i dont know to much about regex and what it can do but does sound like it would help lol The situation is that I have a large string with some identifiers to say "replace me" with something else. My goal is to replace the values, but if one replacement includes one of the other keys, I don't want to replace it.
For example:
<?php $str = 'some blob ~abc~ followed by ~def~'; $arr_orig = array( '~abc~', '~def~' ); $arr_new = array( 'value~def~', 'blah' ); echo str_replace( $arr_orig, $arr_new, $str ); ?>This will echo: some blob valueblah followed by blah But that's not what I'm trying to accomplish. Basically, I want ~abc~ to be replaced with the literal: value~def~ and for the ~def~ that happens to be part of that string to NOT be replaced. I hope what I'm asking is clear. Basically, preg_replace/str_replace with arrays seems no different than just doing a FOR loop and replacing ~abc~ and then ~def~. But that's not what I need. I'm hoping that if ~abc~ is replaced with text that happens to be another identifier -- ~def~, ~xyz~, whatever -- that this already replaced text is not again replaced. Is there a built-in function to do something like this? If not, should I just parse the whole string and count characters or something? Seems like a pain (and slow!) Hi, bit stuck on how to find and replace "<" and ">" with "<" and ">". I basically have a database record that outputs to screen and I need the code in the <code> tags to be rendered to the screen. I therefore need it to go through the whole array variable from the db and change the symbols just inside the code tags. Please be aware that the code tags might happen more than once here's an example below Code: [Select] <p>blah blah blah</p> <p>blah blah blah</p> <p>blah blah blah</p> <code> <h1>hello</h1> </code> <p>blah blah blah</p> <p>blah blah blah</p> <p>blah blah blah</p> <code> <h1>hello</h1> </code> the desired output would be: <p>blah blah blah</p> <p>blah blah blah</p> <p>blah blah blah</p> <code> <h1>hello</h1 </code> <p>blah blah blah</p> <p>blah blah blah</p> <p>blah blah blah</p> <code> <h1>hello</h1 </code> help on this would be great Cheers Rob I have multiple \n in a string, and I need to replace it with <br />. How do I go about doing this? Preg replace? Hi, I'm pretty new to PHP, and I'm trying to write my own encoding/decoding script (not with base_64). I'd like to replace like all A's with B's, all B's with C's, C's with D's, and so on. How would I do this? Here's an example: String #1: "ABCDEFG" string #1 goes through my encryption string #2 (output): "BCDEFGH". How would I go about doing this? Thanks. Hello: I have a quick question. I am currently using the following code to replace an apostrophe and quote marks when inserting and updating a database record: Code: [Select] $myPageContent = mysql_real_escape_string(str_replace("'", "'", $_POST['myPageContent'])); $myPageContent = mysql_real_escape_string(str_replace("", """, $_POST['myPageContent'])); My question is - how can I modify it so I only need to use one line. Like (but this does not work): Code: [Select] $myPageContent = mysql_real_escape_string(str_replace("'", "'", "", """, $_POST['myPageContent'])); It seems to me that the way I am currently doing it might be POSTing the data twice? Thanks! Hello, I'm trying to convert a paragraph of text which is already html formatted. I wish to find keywords, such as, 'PHP', which are contained in the paragraph, and replace them with a link, for example <a href="http:/www...">PHP</a> str_replace('PHP', '<A href=""....">PHP</a>', $content); My problem arises when some of these keywords are already contained in a link, so say, visit PHP website, is all one link, so str_replace would simply convert the PHP in this string, to two links for one single word. Code: [Select] <a href="">visit <A href=""....">PHP</a> website</a>How could this problem be resolved? Thanks ok so I have an string with data that I need to be replaced with contents from an array. I need the occurance position replace with the index of the array. example Code: [Select] //here is the setup $string = "testing %s one %d %s"; array('this',1,'three'); //here is the result testing this one 2 three the problem I am having is because the %s can occur more than once I cant use str_replace. I am working on a solution with substr_replace but was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on how to do this. When I replace it I also need to run the value through a function so keep that in mind. Also the replace's are stored in an array so they need to be looped through as well. Code: [Select] $replaces = array('%s'=>'func_one','%d'=>'func_two'); Any help is appreciated. How does wordpress and other similar CMS/applications replace their div elements? For example, if you view the source code of a wordpress site, you will only see: Quote <div id="header"></div> Where, the above code is clearing being switched out for "header.php". How is this done? I believe it's php and jquery, but I would be wrong. Thanks! |
