PHP - Include Euro Symbol In A String
Similar TutorialsHi all, how would I write a string like this in an echo statement so the javascript runs? <a href="javascript:ajaxpage('test.php', 'content');">test</a> What is the & symbol used for I have seen it in function setname(&$name){ $this->name =& $name; } Thanks I have looked on google and can't find it as i don't know what it is called. thanks Hello, Im getting a name from the url, for instance, index.php?name=C.-and-G The "and" is then converted to a & symbol and dashes converted to spaces. This then uses the new name "C. & G" to select a record from mysql. However, it does not recognise the & symbol, the name in mysql is "C. & G" but returns 0 records. Any ideas? Thanks!

Easy One - What is the symbol for or? Example: && = and, right? What is 'or'? I am running php 5.3.2 on my local dev and on the server I am running php 5.2.5. In my log files I keep getting deprecated messages like: PHP Deprecated: Assigning the return value of new by reference is deprecated in /Users/xxx/dev/git/xxx/cake/dispatcher.php on line 677 Can I just delete & to get rid of this message or will that hose the script locally and on the server? I believe that php 5+ passes all objects as reference. Thanks I'm a little confused exactly on how using this } works going to be hard to explain what im having problems with.

It was a free open source code, which I need to change to work for my own site. I have it working, but I am now just looking through the code to try and understand it, and for the most part, I do. There is one part I am not familiar with, if somebody could help me please? Values involved; $current_rating = total rate value of votes $count = total number of votes cast Problem I have is the @ symbol here $rating=@number_format($current_rating/$count, 1); Does it format it to decimal places or something like that? It's probably something simple I know, but I am a relative newb. Thanks. What does it mean Like.. !@file_get_contents('url'); or.. !file_get_contents or @file_get_contents Trying to echo a string that contains a hash symbol. Instead of getting a hash symbol, I get %29. The code I am using is pretty basic -->$idx="#" . $idxA;<--, but as stated, when I echo $idx, it comes out as %29. (All of this is part of a form, get, attempting to pass a bookmark to the receiving program. Thoughts? Code: [Select] $mystring = "|Signature"; $findme = '|'; $pos = strpos($mystring, $findme); echo $pos; echo's 0 supposed to echo out 1....? why not work thanks How can I enable it to check for Code: [Select] | using strpos? hello i can't figure out how to modify a value from assoc array so with each recursion to add additional string to his: for example i have attribute=""; then call recursive function and i try to modify its value by concatenating "0"; or "1"; on the next loop to add again "0" or "1"; So I have a simple query that adds a text record into a MySQL database table. It works great with exception of one thing. I noticed that if I have "&" symbol in my paragraph, the text after that symbol won't be inserted into the table. The text before that symbol will insert fine. It seems to be doing that only with & symbol; other symbols insert and show up fine. can anyone tell me why this is happening? Hi i want to match $ symbol from the string. I am using the following script Code: [Select] $str="ckj"; if(preg_match("/^$/",$str)) { echo "Dollar is found"; } else { echo "Not Found"; } Its not working fine. Can anyone help me out please. CanI put one INCLUDE statement INSIDE of another INCLUDE statement? Hi Guys.. Merry Christmas Im kinda new to this fantastic world of PHP and i have a little problem i hope you can help me with. Im trying to build a website where I use include() to genereate my content. On my index.php i have a menu which includes content in a content div from external .php pages, my structure kinda goes like this.. (simplified) site/ index.php content/ fronpage.php products.php contact.php The HTML looks like this. <div id="menu"> <ul> <li><a href="index.php?page=frontpage">frontpage</a></li> <li><a href="index.php?page=products">frontpage</a></li> <li><a href="index.php?page=contact">frontpage</a></li> </ul> </div <div id="main"> <?php include('/content/'.$_GET['page'].'.php'); ?> </div> This all works very fine, but my problem is, can I have a include inside an already included page? I would like to have a menu on my products.php site, but that page is already included from above, and i would like the menu on the products.php site to stay as the content from the nested include changes with input from the /products folder. my idea was something like this. site/ index.php content/ frontpage.php products.php contact.php products/ product1.php product2.php the HTML on the index.php is the same as above and then i would add the include() on the products.php page, so its kinda the same thing, but one inside the other. HTML inside the products.php folder <div id="sub_menu"> <ul> <li><a href="#">frontpage</a></li> <li><a href="#">frontpage</a></li> <li><a href="#">frontpage</a></li> </ul> </div <div id="sub_main"> <?php include('/content/products'.$_GET['#'].'.php'); ?> </div> I dont know how to link to the new files so they will be included while the first include still stays on the page. Any of you know how and if this can be done? Or maybe at better way to do it? Hope this made sense, my first PHP question Thanks Hi Still a new comer when it comes to PHP. I have a situation where I want to use an include within an include and I am having trouble with my file paths. My main header include, includes everything for each page of my site, beyond the opening of the body to incorporate my navigation etc conditionally loading in css, and loading in titles and meta data etc depending on the page in question. This header needs to reference another include called the-pod.php which is required for every page, the only trouble is I want to use / to reference the root of the server and this is breaking my code. I can't use ../../ etc as its a different path depending on where the master file is located. So my question is how do I get around this? Can the root of the server or path to the root be stored in a variable? and if so how would I write this. Any tips / advice will be greatly appreciated. Hi, I am trying to make some adjustments to uploadify.php which comes with the latest version of uploadify (3.0 beta), so that it works with a session variable that stores the login username and adds it to the path for uploads. Here is uploadify.php as it currently looks: Code: [Select] <?php session_name("MyLogin"); session_start(); $targetFolder = '/songs/' . $_SESSION['name']; // Relative to the root if (!empty($_FILES)) { $tempFile = $_FILES['Filedata']['tmp_name']; $targetPath = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . $targetFolder; $targetFile = rtrim($targetPath,'/') .'/'. $_FILES['Filedata']['name']; // Validate the file type $fileTypes = array('m4a','mp3','flac','ogg'); // File extensions $fileParts = pathinfo($_FILES['Filedata']['name']); if (in_array($fileParts['extension'],$fileTypes)) { move_uploaded_file($tempFile,$targetFile); echo '1'; } else { echo 'Invalid file type.'; } } echo $targetFolder; ?> I added Code: [Select] echo $targetFolder; at the bottom so that I could make sure that the string returned was correct, and it is, i.e. '/songs/nick'. For some reason though, uploads are not going to the correct folder, i.e. the username folder, but instead are going to the parent folder 'songs'. The folder for username exists, with correct permissions, and when I manually enter Code: [Select] $targetFolder = '/songs/nick';all works fine. Which strikes me as rather strange. I have limited experience of using php, but wonder how if the correct string is returned by the session variable, the upload works differently than with the manually entered string. Any help would be much appreciated. It's the last issue with a website that was due to go live 2 days ago! Thanks, Nick |
