PHP - Alphabetizing A Word
How can I sort a string alphabetically? I thought about creating an array ('a'=>0, 'b'=>1) etc, but didn't manage to work. So how can I do this? is there a predefined function for this? or I should create the algorithm? Thanks,
Example: $word = 'cbad432'; // should become: '234abcd' Similar TutorialsI am new to PHP so I'm sorry if anything I ask isn't clear. I'm actually a writer, but my boss randomly decided I need to learn PHP so here I am My first project is to take information from a simple HTML form that asks for users to fill out three text boxes, select if they are user 1 or user 2, and upload a file. I then have to store the information in a text file and display that information in the browser directly below the HTML form. The information must be ordered alphabetically by the first letter of whatever is entered in the first text box. Each entry must be on its own line. For example: Person 1 enters: Sally Mae Johnson User 1 Flowers.jpg Person 2 comes along later and enters: George Michael Johnson User 2 books.jpg Right now it displays in the order entered like this: Sally Mae Johnson User 1 Flowers.jpg George Michael Johnson User 2 books.jpg I need it to display in alphabetical order by the first letter of the first name like this: George Michael Johnson user 2 books.jpg Sally Mae Johnson User 1 Flowers.jpg I'm so close, but I just can't figure out how to finish it up. If anyone can help they'd be a life saver! Here's what I wrote so far: <body> <?php $fone = @$_POST["one"]; $ftwo = @$_POST["two"]; $fthree = @$_POST["three"]; $fselect = @$_POST["select"]; if ($_FILES) { $name = $_FILES['upload']['name']; (move_uploaded_file($_FILES['upload']['tmp_name'], "uploads/$name")); } //write to the file $values = "$fone\t"; $values .= "$ftwo\t"; $values .= "$fthree\t"; $values .= "$fselect\t"; $values .= "<img src='uploads/$name'><br />\n"; //open and write to the file $fp = @fopen("store.txt", "a") or die("Couldn't open the file!"); $numBytes = @fwrite($fp, $values) or die ("Couldn't write values to file!"); @fclose($fp); ?> <form action="test_it2.php" enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post"> Box 1: <input type="text" name="one" size="15" /> Box 2: <input type="text" name="two" size="15" /> Box 3: <input type="text" name="three" size="15" /> Select One: <select name="select"><option value="empty">Please Select</option><option value="user1">User 1</option> <option value="user2">User 2</option> <p>Upload a File:</p> <p><input type="file" name="upload" /> <input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="30000" /> <input type="submit" name="submit" value="submit" /> <input type="hidden" name="submitted" value="submitted" /> </p> </form> <?php print "<P>Here are the users:<br />"; $file = "store.txt"; if (file_exists($file)) { $file1 = fopen("store.txt" , "r"); while (!feof($file1)) { $display = fgets($file1, filesize("store.txt")); echo $display . " "; } fclose($file1); } else { echo "<P>Error occured! Please try again!</p>"; } ?> </body> </html> Hi guys, I'm trying to export records from php to ms word which appends text + image. i have got this code from http://www.thaicreate.com/php/php-word.application-addpicture.html Code: [Select] <html> <head> <title>ThaiCreate.Com PHP Word.Application Tutorial</title> </head> <body> <? $wdColorDarkRed = "&H80"; $wdAlignParagraphCenter = "1"; $wdAlignParagraphLeft = "0"; $wdParagraph = "4"; $wdHorizontalPositionMargin = "0"; $wdTableLeft = "-999998"; $wdCollapseEnd = "0"; $Wrd = new COM("Word.Application"); $DocName = "MyDoc/MyWord.doc"; //$strPath = realpath(basename(getenv($_SERVER["SCRIPT_NAME"]))); // C:/AppServ/www/myphp $Wrd->Application->Visible = False; $WrdDoc = $Wrd->Documents->Add(); $MyRange1 = $WrdDoc->Paragraphs->Add->Range; $MyRange1->ParagraphFormat->Alignment = $wdAlignParagraphCenter; $MyRange1->Font->Name = "Verdana"; $MyRange1->Font->Size = "30"; $MyRange1->Font->Bold = True; $MyRange1->InsertBefore(chr(13).chr(13)."www.ThaiCreate.Com".chr(13)."Version 2009"); $MyRange1->InlineShapes->AddPicture(realpath("thaicreate-2009.gif")); //$WrdDoc->InlineShapes->AddPicture(realpath("thaicreate-2009.gif")); //$WrdDoc->Shapes->AddPicture(realpath("thaicreate-2009.gif"),0,0,MyRange1); //$WrdDoc->Shapes->AddPicture(realpath("thaicreate-2009.gif"),0,0,Wrd->Selection->Range); $MyRange2 = $WrdDoc->Paragraphs->Add->Range; $MyRange2->ParagraphFormat->Alignment = $wdAlignParagraphCenter; $MyRange2->Font->Name = "Verdana"; $MyRange2->Font->Size = "15"; $MyRange2->Font->Bold = True; $MyRange2->InsertBefore(chr(13).chr(13)."PHP,ASP and ASP.NET Tutorial"); $MyRange2->InlineShapes->AddPicture(realpath("doc.gif")); $MyRange3 = $WrdDoc->Paragraphs->Add->Range; $MyRange3->ParagraphFormat->Alignment = $wdAlignParagraphCenter; $MyRange3->Font->Name = "Verdana"; $MyRange3->Font->Size = "10"; $MyRange3->Font->Bold = True; $MyRange3->Font->Color = $wdColorDarkRed; $MyRange3->Underline = True; $MyRange3->InsertBefore(chr(13).chr(13).chr(13).chr(13)."All Rights Reserved"); //$WrdDoc->SaveAs($strPath."/".$DocName); $WrdDoc->SaveAs(realpath($DocName)); $Wrd->Application->Quit; $Wrd = null; ?> Word Created <a href="<?=$DocName?>">Click here</a> to Download. </body> </html> This is the best code i've found so far that guides on how to format the text in ms word via PHP. All set to go but one thing that I am trying to accomplish : to have a clickable email address (hyperlink) in the same ms word file. i have got this code somewhere from the net: Code: [Select] $MyRange3->Hyperlinks->Add({range}, 'http://www.google.com', '','',' hyperlink text to display'); // where {range} refers to as anchor according to that website this methods could be found in ms word visual basic editor (Alt+F11) then object browser (F2) when i replace the {range} above with let say variable $MyRange3. Code: [Select] $MyRange3->Hyperlinks->Add($MyRange3, 'http://www.google.com', '','',' hyperlink text to display'); The output will be produced but overwriting everything in $MyRange3 and displays only the hyperlink. I would like the email address (hyperlink) to appear at the end of $MyRange3 text. example output Code: [Select] All right reserved [u]hyperlink text to display[/u] anyone can shed some light on this. I'm going to post the code that I am currently using and then explain what I'm trying to do. I hope I can explain it well enough. <?php if (!isset($_POST['submit'])) { echo'<leftmargin="0" topmargin="0" rightmargin="0" bottommargin="0"> <center><form name="fairlistlist" method="POST" action="'.$_SERVER['PHP_SELF'].'"> <TABLE width="450" height="119" border=0 cellPadding=3 cellSpacing=2 bgcolor="#fff568"> <TBODY> <TR> <TD class=mainText width="100"><b>Event Name</b></TD> <TD width="305" class=frmInput> <INPUT class=mainFormBox style="WIDTH: 320px" type="text" name=" fairname"></TD> </TR> <TR> <TD class=mainText width="100"><B>Event Address</B></TD> <TD class=frmInput> <INPUT name="fairadd" type="text" class=mainFormBox id="fairadd" style="WIDTH: 320px"></TD> </TR> <TR> <TD class=mainText width="100"><b>Event City</b></TD> <TD class=frmInput> <INPUT name="faircity" type="text" class=mainFormBox id="faircity" style="WIDTH: 320px"></TD> </TR> <TR> <TD class=mainText width="100"><b>Event County</b></TD> <TD class=frmInput> <INPUT name="faircty" type="text" class=mainFormBox id="faircty" style="WIDTH: 320px"></TD> </TR> <TR> <TD class=mainText width="100"><b>Event State</b></TD> <TD class=frmInput> <INPUT name="fairstate" type="text" class=mainFormBox id="fairstate" style="WIDTH: 320px"></TD> </TR> <TR> <TD class=mainText width="100"><b>Event Country</b></TD> <TD class=frmInput> <INPUT name="fairctry" type="text" class=mainFormBox id="fairctry" style="WIDTH: 320px"></TD> </TR> <TR> <TD class=mainText width="100"><b>Event Opening Date</b></TD> <TD class=frmInput> <INPUT name="fairopen" type="text" class=mainFormBox id="fairopen" style="WIDTH: 320px"></TD> </TR> <TR> <TD class=mainText width="100"><b>Event Closing Date</b></TD> <TD class=frmInput> <INPUT name="fairclose" type="text" class=mainFormBox id="fairlose" style="WIDTH: 320px"></TD> </TR> <TR> <TD class=mainText width="100"><b>Event Contact Email</b></TD> <TD class=frmInput> <INPUT name="fairmail" type="text" class=mainFormBox id="fairmail" style="WIDTH: 320px"></TD> </TR> <TR> <TD class=mainText width="100"><b>Event Website</b></TD> <TD class=frmInput> <INPUT name="fairweb" type="text" class=mainFormBox id="fairweb" style="WIDTH: 320px"></TD> </TR> <TR> <TD class=frmDescription width="56"> </TD> <TD class=frmInput> <div align="right"> <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Add my Event" /> </div></TD> </TR> </TBODY> </TABLE> </form></center> </body>'; //note that I added a new field called submit and it's hidden .. } else { /*I added addslashes() so it escape any special char in the form .. if you want to show your inserted record , you need to use stripslashes() to remove any slashes from the record .. this is only to avoid some security problems in the query ..*/ $fairname=trim(addslashes($_POST['fairname'])); $fairadd=trim(addslashes($_POST['fairadd'])); $faircity=trim(addslashes($_POST['faircity'])); $faircty=trim(addslashes($_POST['faircty'])); $fairstate=trim(addslashes($_POST['fairstate'])); $fairctry=trim(addslashes($_POST['fairctry'])); $fairopen=trim(addslashes($_POST['fairopen'])); $fairclose=trim(addslashes($_POST['fairclose'])); $fairmail=trim(addslashes($_POST['fairmail'])); $fairweb=trim(addslashes($_POST['fairweb'])); include("Connections/local.php"); $link = mysql_connect($hostname_local,$username_local, $password_local) or die("Could not connect"); mysql_select_db('fair123') or die("Could not select database"); $insert=mysql_query("INSERT INTO events (fairidnum, fairname, fairadd, faircity, faircty, fairstate, fairctry, fairopen, fairclose, fairmail, fairweb) VALUES('NULL', '$fairname', '$fairadd', '$faircity', '$faircty','$fairstate', '$fairctry','$fairopen', '$fairclose', '$fairmail', '$fairweb')")or die('couldn\'t Insert record into database :'.mysql_error()); header( 'Location: event_added.php' ) ; } ?> Especially look at the code part here $insert=mysql_query("INSERT INTO events (fairidnum, fairname, fairadd, faircity, faircty, fairstate, fairctry, fairopen, fairclose, fairmail, fairweb) VALUES('NULL', '$fairname', '$fairadd', '$faircity', '$faircty','$fairstate', '$fairctry','$fairopen', '$fairclose', '$fairmail', '$fairweb')")or die('couldn\'t Insert record into database :'.mysql_error()); header( 'Location: event_added.php' ) ; } ?> this is where I am having problems it was reading echo your record has been successfully added to the database What I want is for it to open up a new page with my menu and my css and all that good crap to a page where it will read the following Your information has been added to our database We have added Event name = "whatever the event's name was" Event address = "address:" so on and so on for all the fields in my form that was submitted to the database. with just using the echo command it always opened to just a blank page no formatting and no css as well as no all important links Can you please tell me what I'm doing wrong or where I can find a good guideline that Is easy to understand on how to do this?

<td> <? Good evening, I hope some of you can bring me some hope to solve this problem. My client wants to create pdf files and let the user download it. He want's to design one word file and then import it to the application. After that the portal users can request it, which means that the application should take the word file, search and replace some keywords and then create the pdf file for download purposes. I see fpdf but this class only create pdf's. We can not convert from word or even search and replace in one pdf file. There is any solution that i can use bear in mind that our application is located in external servers? Looking forward for your help. Regards, HS Hi all, I don't know if it is possible but i need to edit one word document, write the name of the customer in it, but at the right place and print it from a php form. The user write in that php form the customer id and if he exists, the system should modify the word template and print it. Do you think this is possible and if so how can i do that? Thanks in advance. Hugo Hi: I can't seem to figure out how I would display the words the user enters in an ordered list on the bottom of the page in the <div id="guesses"> area. A hidden form variable is used to store all the previous guesses. (no cookies, no session variables). Also, how do I get the guesses to appear in the top of the page so that it looks like this: Array ( [myguess] => eee [alltheguesses] => aaa|ccc|ddd|ggg ) This is what I seem to be getting: Array ( [myguess] => yy [allTheGuesses] => ) Code: [Select] <?= '<pre>' . print_r($_POST,true) .

I have a table in my php Mysql which contains some values.. Is it possible to get those values then export them to MS word with formatting? and make it like a table? Help pls. Hey, I have a word filter which is dectecting strings that are only embedded in words. Which i don't want it to do. For example: If i want to filter "FR" and some one puts france - it flags it because france contains FR. How do i make it only look for "FR" on its own seperated from a word instead of it flagging nearly all words with the two letters together? Heres my filter: $text = 'testing'; //this should not return 1 // fill this array with the bad words you want to filter and their replacements $bads = array ("test"); foreach($bads as $key => $search_needle) { if(stristr($text, $search_needle) == TRUE) { return(1); break; } } Hi there, Can someone tell me an easy way to highlight a word in a page using PHP? I only need to highlight 1 word, for example "hello". Thanks I want to catch the first word of a string in which the words are separated by "-" (e.g. "first-word-second-one-more"). I used this code: $string = explode('-', $string); echo $string[0]; The problem is that when the string contains only one word, it returns null how to take a word in php or explode based on luas Bangunan :xxx For example I have string $string =" Kondisi Properti : Bagus Dilengkapi Perabotan : Unfurnished Sertifikat : Lainnya Daya Listrik : 2200 Watt Kamar Tidur : 3/1 Kamar Mandi : 2/1 Luas Bangunan : 92 m² Luas Tanah : 126 m² Jumlah Lantai : - Kondisi Properti : Bagus Sekali Dilengkapi Perabotan : Unfurnished Sertifikat : SHM - Sertifikat Hak Milik Daya Listrik : 6600 Watt Saluran Telepon : 1 Garasi : 3 Kamar Tidur : 4/1 Kamar Mandi : 3/1 Luas Bangunan : 300 m² Luas Tanah : 228 m² Jumlah Lantai : 2.5 "; eg I want to take every "Luas bangunan: xxx" Thanks Hello Guys, I need some help here.. I want to implement a Bad word filter and not quite sure how to do it.. I am grabbing the following vars from the text fields $ad_title = filter_var($_POST['ad_title'], FILTER_SANITIZE_STRING,FILTER_FLAG_NO_ENCODE_QUOTES); $ad_body = filter_var($_POST['description'], FILTER_SANITIZE_STRING,FILTER_FLAG_NO_ENCODE_QUOTES); Then its inserted into the db. I would like to run it through this function first.. Code: [Select] FUNCTION BadWordFilter(&$text, $replace){ // fill this array with the bad words you want to filter and their replacements $bads = ARRAY ( ARRAY("butt","b***"), ARRAY("poop","p***"), ARRAY("crap","c***") ); IF($replace==1) { //we are replacing $remember = $text; FOR($i=0;$i<sizeof($bads);$i++) { //go through each bad word $text = EREGI_REPLACE($bads[$i][0],$bads[$i][1],$text); //replace it } IF($remember!=$text) RETURN 1; //if there are any changes, return 1 } ELSE { //we are just checking FOR($i=0;$i<sizeof($bads);$i++) { //go through each bad word IF(EREGI($bads[$i][0],$text)) RETURN 1; //if we find any, return 1 } } } // this will replace all bad words with their replacements. $any is 1 if it found any $any = BadWordFilter($wordsToFilter,1); I really would also like to query a table for any words that match and then use a replacement like [censored] Any help would be greatly appreciated! hey im tring to match words which contain double s at the end...ie. address, business, class etc...so that is so i can put a ' at the end...
class'
if (preg_match("/ss$/", $name))
{
$name = $name . "'";
}
any help with the regular expression would be great thank you
Hey guys does anyone know how i would go about generating a random word from an array? For example: $words = array("[apple]","[banana]","[kiwi]"); how would i have php choose one of these words and then spit it out? Thanks!!! Hey guys, any suggestions how i could read and write msWord files without using the COM interface. I need to keep all the formatting intact though... any ideas? many thanks Hi i am have this word which is styled using span like this Code: [Select] <span style="color:blue;">php</span><span style="color:green;">academy</span>i used this word often on my site but i have to all the time retype so i was wondering what would be the best way to use the php include one way i was thing is create a variable on my header Quote <php $phpacademy=<span style="color:blue;">php</span><span style="color:green;">academy</span> <?php or is better to include in a file on its own.? or are both the wrong way of doing if so what would be the best option just tired of having to style it everytime i need to use that word all the time! I'm having an issue, and I can't think of a good way to fix it that wont make the code too messy. Long story short, pull data from database and display it. One of the fields is "Description" however on this particular page i want to limit the description view to 250 characters, and i do it like so... Code: [Select] if(strlen($row['Description']) > 250) { echo substr($row['Description'],0,250); } This works great, however it has it's issues. This particular one that I need to find a work-around for is if the description contains any HTML, it will break the text following the above echo. I realized this when the 250 limit cut a link in half <a href="http://www.xy and it cuts that off there which then causes my ...more link to assume it's linking to www.xy which clearly returns a broken page. My question is how can i avoid this, is there an easy way to notice wait i just opened a tag, forget 250 limit finish it just before or just after the tag that is being cut off. Thanks in advance. |
