PHP - Replace <br> To A Full Stop

You: As a PHP expert, you find the prospect of building yet another brochure-ware website distressing; you want to get your hands dirty building an advanced, MVC based application in a fun and supportive environment where you will be constantly challenged, always learning and delivering a product used by millions of people every day. Our company was founded and is managed by developers who wrote the original software the company was built upon; the technical team are the core of our business. As a member of that team, it will be you who decides upon the on-going development of our technical stack as well as the product itself. You will of course have complete control over your workstation.   Our stack:   Qualifications: A passion for programming, solving problems and building software customers love. Experience building web-based applications as distinct from brochure-ware websites. An expert in OOP/MVC/ORM programming techniques and PHP (v5.3+) frameworks. We happen to use Symfony2 but any relevant experience is fine. You can bend MySQL to your will. Solid front-end development experience with XHTML, CSS, and Javascript. Our stack includes AngularJS, CoffeeScript, jQuery and LESS. An appreciation for a beautiful GUI and excellent user experience. Expectation of a fast moving, agile environment. We ship code to customers daily – we’d expect you contribute from day 1. You can validate your skills for example with source code samples, a github profile, contributions to an open source project, developer blog, stackoverflow answers etc. What you will do: Design (with help) and develop new channels for our software. In particular we are looking at apps using twilio (for voice/sms), facebook and twitter as well as a web based screensharing tool. Integrate our software into other 3rd party applications. This could both be via APIs (salesforce, jira, 37signals) or through digging directly into the source code (sugarCRM, xenforo etc). Continue improve and refine our existing channels and product. We are never satisfied and always looking for that small improvement, refactor or redesign that can increase usability, speed and functionality for our customers. Work on our backend systems including internal developer tools and deployment processes, our SaaS application stack or the tools we have to manage our business. Work on our mobile apps, built using our API / HTML5 and PhoneGap About us: Our principle product is DeskPRO, the helpdesk software platform. We make it easy for organisations (companies – large and small, charities, public sector organisations) to communicate with their users via email, twitter, facebook, SMS, web forms, live chat (text and voice) as well as providing publishing self-help tools, sales management, co-working tools and community based question and answers. DeskPRO is a platform where customers install the helpdesk applications they need to manage their business. We sell this software to a range of organisations including large companies (e.g. Tumblr, Xerox, T-mobile, Fujitsu, Valve Software and AT&T) universities and the public sector all the way through to small family businesses. We have a dual license model; selling licenses to software installed on our clients’ servers (we don’t encrypt the code – so your code will get read!) and offering a fully managed SaaS solution. Millions of people use our software every day and a lot of agents spend their whole working day using it constantly.   What we offer: Competitive salary based upon experience. Friendly work environment at the Innovation Warehouse in Farringdon: http://theiw.org/. 30" monitor and control over your workstation setup. No corporate bureaucracy here. A mixture of autonomy over your role and real responsibilities to the team and business. Varied work. The DeskPRO product is large with lots of modules and technologies. Review our source code before even applying; just ask and we will add you to our github account. Never accept a job until you have seen the code you will be working with. We plan to have a lot of fun on this journey – please bring a sense of humour. Apply: Please send your CV and either a link to your online profile, github account or some sample source code to: jobs@deskpro.com

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
i wrote a find and replace code but my code replace last value of array and skip the first, second.... values in the array.
Please give me an idea because i stack with this code.

Regards


$KeyWord  = explode("\n", $RowGetWords['KEYWORDS']);
$Replace  = explode("\n", $RowGetWords['ReplaceTo']);

for($i=0; $i<count($KeyWord); $i++){
$pattern = $KeyWord[$i];
$replace = "<a href=\"" .$URL. "\" target=\"_blank\" >" .$Replace[$i]. "</a>";
$html = str_replace($pattern, $replace, $Row['MessageBody']);
}

Hi,

I need to send automated HTML emails with PHP for my web-server. I have SMTP with Postfix and Sendmail. When i send an email, it just goes to the spam folder of the mail client (tried with GMAIL as well as Microsoft outlook). Could i have the code for sending emails so they don't go to the spam folder. With full headers, etc.

Thanks a lot,

Jack

I am trying to include my full url on my site. example /index.php?page=demo   On my local server this bit of code worked fine.   $active = "$_SERVER[REQUEST_URI]";   however on my live server it returns blank, i think maybe due to the fact that its a windows server ?   php self works, but only returns index.php and not the full ?page=demo url   $active = ($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']);   does anyone know how i can work around this?   Thanks
