PHP - Need Help With Dynamic Tags

Folks,

I need help (Php code ) to generate a Dynamic Text on a Base Image. What i want to do is, to make this Image as header on my Site and to make this Header Specific to a Site, i want to Add the Domain Name on the Lower Left of the Image.

Got the Idea?

Here is the Image link:

PHP Variable that holds the Domain name is:  $domain 

All i need the Dynamic PHP Codes that i can put on all my sites to generate this Text on Image (Header) Dynamically...

May Anyone Help me with this Please?

Cheers

Hi all

I need to combine these two scripts:

Firstly, the following decides which out of the following list is selected based on its value in the mySQL table:

<select name="pack_choice">
<option value="Meters / Pack"<?php echo (($result['pack_choice']=="Meters / Pack") ? ' selected="selected"':'') ?>>Meters / Pack (m2)</option>
<option value="m3"<?php echo (($result['pack_choice']=="m3") ? ' selected="selected"':'') ?>>Meters / Pack (m3)</option>
<option value="Quantity"<?php echo (($result['pack_choice']=="Quantity") ? ' selected="selected"':'') ?>>Quantity</option>
</select>

Although this works OK, I need it also to show dynamic values like this:

select name="category">
<?php
$listCategories=mysql_query("SELECT * FROM `product_categories` ORDER BY id ASC");
while($categoryReturned=mysql_fetch_array($listCategories)) {
echo "<option value=\"".$categoryReturned['name']."\">".$categoryReturned['name']."</option>";
}
?>
</select>

I'm not sure if this is possible?

Many thanks for your help.

Hello
i said to replace the short php tags (<??>) with long php tags (<?php ?>)
but it is giving me Parse errors -.-

the parse error apears if i have
<?php//NOTE ?>

With <?//NOTE?> Is all ok and it dosnt give me that error ..
could anyone please tell me why dos it give the error and some more details about the tags etc

Thanks in advance

How does PHP continuity exist in different php tags?
for example, if i connect to a database in a header,
and close the tag,
can I still work off of the same database in another tag?

Hi guys, i have not started this as of yet, however i will be given a project to make a micro-blogging website similar to that of Twitter or Facebook but obviously on a much smaller scale

I have been searching on google however i have not found anything. Maybe i haven't been using the right words in my query, not sure :-/

I have been trying to do some research, however i can't seem to find how to incorporate @ tags found in Twitter / Facebook.
e.g. If i want to tag a person in a Status Update:
Hey @John Smith, Football in the park at 3pm?

If anyone is able to help i would be grateful

Thank You

How would i edit this to look in a directory, and sub-directories and get information for every mp3 and add the data to a mysql database (the latter i can do easily)

I have just been given some code that is live on a web site. I pulled it down to my local linux machine and the php will not run. I have worked out the issue
the php tags are <? scripting ?> it is missing the php.

I have a couple of questions how do I get my local linux  machine get <? scripting ?>   this to work and I have a lot of code that is like this and I am sure
that it is no longer secure is this right?

alright I've seen and use
Code: [Select]
<?php Code: [Select]
<?but never before do I recall seeing
Code: [Select]
<?=
Nor do I even know where to look that up, so.. anyone ever see that used before, if so, any insight as to why someone would choose that?

HI,   I'm using; https://github.com/o.../PHP-Pagination   It works on my local test server, but on EC2, short tags are apparently not enabled by default.   The pagination is printing php:

<div class="pagination"><ul class="<?php= implode(' ', $classes) ?>">
<li class="<?php= implode(' ', $classes) ?>"><a href="<?php= ($href) ?>"><?php= ($previous) ?></a></li>
<li class="number active"><a data-pagenumber="<?php= ($current) ?>" href="#"><?php= ($current) ?></a></li>
<li class="number"><a data-pagenumber="<?php= ($current + $x + 1) ?>" href="<?php= ($href) ?>"><?php= ($current + $x + 1) ?></a></li>
<li class="number"><a data-pagenumber="<?php= ($current + $x + 1) ?>" href="<?php= ($href) ?>"><?php= ($current + $x + 1) ?></a></li>
<li class="<?php= implode(' ', $classes) ?>"><a href="<?php= ($href) ?>"><?php= ($next) ?></a></li>

I tried replacing <? with <?php to no avail. Not sure if the fact that one dependency is named "render.inc.php" instead of just ".php" which is causing the issue. Any ideas why apache is doing this? I'd rather not edit the .ini. Thanks..

Hi there.

I'm doing a calendar page with php. It's based on a template and in this template all the output text and html-tags are saved into a xml string.

I want to add a tooltip/hovering effect and found one on the net. I applied this script but it doesn't work. It works on "plain html", but when it is within the php it just won't work..

This is how my code looks like:

START:
$xml = '<?xml version="1.0" ?><response><content><![CDATA[';

--- kode -- kode -- kode ---

    $xml.="<div class='calevent'>
                   
                <a href='' class='someClass' title='<img src=1.jpg>'>Curabitur dolor eros</a>
                <a href='java script:navigate(\"\",\"\",\"".$row[0]."\")'>";
   
               
                $xml.=$erow[0];
               
               

                $xml.="</a></div>";

END:

echo $xml;

-------------
The script is supposed to add tooltips when an element is declared "someClass" and it works on plain html on the same page..
Take a look: http://clubbinghagen.dk/calendar/

Links in the calendar have no tooltip, but the Admin link in the center bottom (a bit hard to see!) has a working image as a tooltip.

Any ideas??

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,

I made a script to grab the data between these tags on my page:
Code: [Select]
<td class="numbers">
</td>
It shows only the numbers and that's what I want  (see Ex: ) but if I view the source code it shows this:
Code: [Select]
Andreea - <td class="numbers">111</td><br />
Claudia - <td class="numbers">30</td><br />
Daniel - <td class="numbers">37</td><br />
Adela - <td class="numbers">4</td><br />
Is there a way to display the result without those tags ?

Ex: Andreea - 111
    Claudia - 30
    ............

As you can see, I only need the numbers, there's nothing else inside those tags.

I am working on a poject, where the search functions doesnt work as the user wishes. The coding is technically correct, but the idea behind it is wrong.

Basically at the moment, the script receives this:

thesite.com/search.php?q=xxxx&Submit=Search

The search script then runs a database query to search the tag coloumn, looking for like $q. This would work, however the structure of the coloumn is tag1, tag2, tag3, tag4.

So my resolutions is this so far:

I explode the $q variable, via the + (if you search more than one term "thesite.com/search.php?q=search+stuff&Submit=Search"

I then count the elements in the array and write the database function accordingly

Code: [Select]
$var = @$_GET['q'] ;
$trimmed = trim($var);

$searchpieces = explode("+", $trimmed);

$dbquery="";

$count = count($searchpieces);

for ($i = 0; $i < $count; $i++) {
if($i == 0){$dbquery.="tags = $searchpieces[$i]";}
elseif($i > 0){$dbquery.=" OR tags = $searchpieces[$i]";}
}

So my database query is

        $sql = "select * from gallery where $dbquery order by date DESC " . $limit;

so my question is this.. how to i eplode the tags database coloumn, so my datase query an look at each tag fro "tag1, tag2, tag3" as "tag1" "tag2" "tag3"

I am not even sure if this is possible, but its the system that is already in place.

The problem with the current system, is because the pictures have alot of tags and the database query is $like $q, it just shows all images in the database as the result

I wish to have all my products show in an XML for googles product search.
Also when I try to view this in internet explorer I get an error about quote marks (") being invalid.
Code: [Select]
<?
header('Content-Type: text/xml; charset=UTF-8');

include("includes/functions.php");
$connected = dbConnect();

// the DATE_FORMAT is to make the date RFCwhatsit compliant
$datetocheck = date("Y-m-d H:i:s");
$sql = "SELECT * FROM `products` ORDER BY `productTitle` ASC";
$resultset = mysql_query($sql);

//echo("<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"ISO-8859-1\" ? >\n");
echo("<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\" ?>\n");
?>

I am tweaking a function which takes data that was entered into a Form TextArea and wraps each paragraph with <p></p> tags so things are properly marked up.

It seems to be working okay, except for two annoying things...

1.) When I go to View ---> Source, I do NOT want to see paragraph after paragraph all on the same line.

I tried adding a \n into the preg_replace but it is adding an extra carriage return in the output.


2.) Right now, if my code sees 2 \n's it will convert that to "</ p><p>", which is fine.  However it does the same thing if there are 20 \n's which is technically wrong, because maybe someone wanted the extra 18 carriage returns between their paragraphs?!

For example, in the line below "I decided to start..." that line should get wrapped in <p></p> and then there should be a <br /><br /> because the User added two *extra* carriage returns, and then the next line "My boss is a jerk..." should get wrapped in <p></p> because it is also a paragraph.

I'm sure this one is impossible to do, but the end goal is simple...

Regardless of how many carriage returns there are between blocks of text, the blocks of text should first get wrapped in <p> </p> but then any additional line spacing should be preserved.

Hope that makes sense?!

Here is the code I am working with...

$text="I decided to start my own business because I want to be my own boss!



My boss is a jerk and never appreciates anything that I do for him, so why put up with the abuse?!  He takes me for granted and doesn't appreciate all of my talents.

Running my own business will give me a chance to do things as I see fit...

Line One
Line Two
Line Three
Line Four



Line Eight";


$text2 = htmlentities($text, ENT_QUOTES);


function nl2p($string, $line_breaks = true) {
// Remove existing HTML formatting to avoid double tags.
//^ $string = str_replace(array('<p>', '</p>', '<br>', '<br/>'), '', $string);

// Replace Carriage Return with Empty String.
// Replace multiple Newlines with closing & opening paragraph tags.
// Replace single Newline with break tag.
if ($line_breaks == true) {
return '<p>'.preg_replace(array("#\r#","#\n{2,}#", "#\n#"), array("","</p><p>", "<br />\n"), $string).'</p>';
}else{
return '<p>'.preg_replace("#\n#", "</p><p>", trim($string)).'</p>';
}
}

echo nl2p($text2, TRUE);


Oh, btw, as you can see, adding a \n after the line break (i.e. "<br />\n") actually added the line break in my Source as I wanted.  It is just when you add a \n in between the paragraphs that my code misbehaves (i.e. "</p>\n<p>").

Can these two problems be fixed??   

Thanks,


Debbie
