PHP - Highlighting Row

I'm attempting to add syntax highlighting to my bbcode function. I started with the general basis for a bbcode function that there are a million tutorials on.

To make things simpler I took out the rest of the bbcode tags.
Code: [Select]
<?php

//Eventually will need to add some logic to color the code tags
function parseBBCode($string)
{
    $search = array(
        '/\[code\](.*?)\[\/code\]/is',
    );
    
    $replace = array(
        '<div class="code"><code>$1</code></div>'

    );
    
    //Render the tabs in html
    //may need to find a better place for this in the future
    $string = str_replace('    ', '&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;', $string);

    return preg_replace($search, $replace, $string);
}

?>
I've tried using the highlight_string() function but it never highlights it. I assumed this was because when I store the data in the database I used htmlentities() on the text. So I also tried the following to no avail:

Code: [Select]
'<div class="code">'.highlight_string(html_entity_decode('$1'), true).'</div>'
And this where I'm calling the function:
Code: [Select]
$posts = '';
while($post = $db->fetchArray($content)) {
$posts .= '<span style="font-size: 22px;">'.$post['title'].'</span><br /> <hr />';
$posts .= '<br />'.nl2br(stripslashes(parseBBCode($post['post']))).'<br /><br /><hr />';

$user = $db->query('SELECT username FROM isnet_users WHERE id = '.$post['poster_id'].';');
$user = $db->fetchArray($user);

$posts .= '<strong>Author: </strong>'.$user['username'].'<br /><br />';
} //end while

I've tried a few other methods that have produced syntax highlighting but have broken other posts that don't need it. So is there something I'm just obliviously missing?

Hello, I got this basic code from a website and it is supposed to highlight the current page on the menu, which it does very well. The problem is that I cannot stylize the font, color or size of the type in the current page menu display. No matter what I do, it always stays as the default font. The other buttons on the menu can be stylized but not the current page. Is there a way to do this?

Code: [Select]
## SNIPPET 1 - THE PHP ## // To be saved in the 'includes' directory as "nav_include.php"

<?php
$menu=file_get_contents("includes/menu.html"); // get the navigation list of pages
$base=basename($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']); // get the current page
$menu=preg_replace("|<li><a href=\"".$base."\">(.*)</a></li>|U", "<li id=\"current\">$1</li>", $menu); // add an id of 'active' to the link and id of class to the list item for the current page 
echo $menu; // echo the HTML list with the current page highlighted
?>

## SNIPPET 2 - THE HTML LIST ##  To be saved as menu.html

<ul id="navlist">
  <li><a href="index.php">Home</a></li>
  <li><a href="products.php">Products</a></li>
  <li><a href="services.php">Services</a></li>
  <li><a href="about.php">About Us</a></li>
  <li><a href="contact.php">Contact Us</a></li>
</ul>

## CSS ## for the *.css file

#navlist { margin: 0; padding: 30px 0 20px 10px; float: right; width: 60%; }
#navlist ul, #navlist li { margin: 0; padding: 0; display: inline; list-style-type: none; }
#navlist a:link, #navlist a:visited { float: left; line-height: 14px; font-weight: bold; margin: 0 10px 4px; text-decoration: none; color: #4F4F4F; width: auto; } /* link and visited link styles - the visited state can be styled separately if you wish */
#navlist a:link#current, #navlist a:visited#current, #navlist a:hover { border-bottom: 4px solid #66733f; padding-bottom: 2px; background: transparent; color: #4F4F4F; } /* this line's the style for the current page link */
#navlist a:hover { border-bottom: 4px solid #4F4F4F; color: #4F4F4F; } /* hover state for all the links */

## TO DISPLAY ON THE PAGE ##

<?php include("includes/nav_include.php"); ?>

I've got a search page that spits out results that match the term that was input. Within the results, I want to add a span with a yellow background behind just the search term. I'll show my code, then say my problem

Code: [Select]
<?php
$search = (term in $_GET variable that was searched for);
// while loop that goes through all results, $result is the text that the searched term was found in
  $new_result = str_ireplace($search, "<span style='background:yellow'>$search</span>", $result);
  echo $new_result;
// end while loop
?>

my problem is that if somebody searches for the word "bob", then if the term "Bob" was found, when it outputs the $new_result, it shows as "bob" with the yellow background. Searching for "Bob" would give the correct results("Bob" with a yellow background), but basically when the output is given, the case of each letter is displayed as it was typed in the search field.

This select box below does remember and highlight -one- selection after submitting the form. But when i make it multiple, it doesn't highlight any of the selections after submitting.
Any idea about how to achieve this?

Thanks in advance.

Code: [Select]
<?php
$options_amount = array("0","1","2","3","4","5","6","7","8","9","10+");
$no_way = $_GET['no_way'];
?>

<select class="postform" name="no_way[]" multiple size="5">
<option <?php if ($no_way == 'all') { ?>selected="selected"<?php }?> value="all">Any</option>
<?php
foreach ($options_amount as $option) {
?><option <?php if ($no_way == $option) { ?>selected="selected"<?php }?> value="<?php echo $option; ?>"><?php echo $option; ?></option><?php }?>
</select>

Hi everyone,

I have a basic calendar that I am trying to change to highlight the current date. I have got the current date highlighted using an if else statement inside a while clause, however, the issue arises when I use the forward/previous links to go to a different month - the same day is highlighted on those months as well.

Here is the code snippet in question (the entire code is below):


while( $day_num <= $days_in_month )
 {
 if(date('d') != $day_num) {
  echo "<td> $day_num </td>";
     $day_num++;
     $day_count++;
  }
// display today's date   
  else {
    echo "<td class=\"today\"> $day_num </td>";
    $day_num++;
$day_count++;
 }


My question is how do I get this calendar to display the current date, just on the current month. I assume there is something I am missing when it comes to handling the date(s) correctly, but what?

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,

kaiman

Full code:


// gets today's date

I have a comment section. It is comprised of 3 major files. One file creates the form where you fill in your name and comment. Another file sends your comment to the DB. The third file displays the already existing comments on the page. You have the option to reply to the existing comments on the page. When you click the reply button I would like the comment text box to light up so the user knows its working but I have hit a brick wall.    This is the comment form the user actually types into:

<div id="comment-container" > 
<form id="comment_form" action="/comm_1/post_comment.php" method='post' onsubmit=" return validateForm()">
		<table>	
		<tr>
			<td id="error"></td>
		</tr>
		<tr>
			<td><textarea name="comment_body" id='comment_body' placeholder="Comment"></textarea></td>
		</tr>
		<?php if(!$username && !$userid): ?>
		<tr>
			<td><input type="text" name="name" class="input_style" placeholder="Name"/>
			<input type="submit" id="loginbtn" value="Or Login" onclick="window.location='/login_scripts/login.php'" /></td>
		</tr>
		<tr>
			<td><input type="email" name="email" class="input_style" placeholder="Email"/></td>
		</tr>
		<?php endif; ?>
		<?php if($username && $userid): ?>
			<input type="hidden" name="name" value="<?php echo htmlspecialchars($username) ?>"/>
			<input type="hidden" name="email"  value="<?php echo htmlspecialchars($email) ?>"/>
		<?php endif; ?>
		<tr>
			<input type='hidden' name='parent_id' id='parent_id' value='0'/>
			<td><input type="submit" name="submitbtn" id="submitbtn" value="Add comment"/></td>
		</tr>
		</table>	
	</form>

This how the existing comments are displayed on the page:    You can see on line 7 is the button to the reply to a comment. When this is clicked I need the "comment_body" from the above code to highlight.

<?php
function getComments($row) {
	echo "<li class='comment'>";
	echo "<div class='aut'>".$row['author']."</div>";
	echo "<div class='timestamp'>".$row['created_at']."</div>";
	echo "<div class='comment-body'>".$row['comment']."</div>";
	echo "<a href='#comment_form' name='replybtn' class='reply' id='".$row['id']."'>Reply</a></script>";
	$q = "SELECT * FROM threaded_comments WHERE parent_id = ".$row['id']."";
	$r = mysql_query($q);
	echo "</li>";
	if(mysql_num_rows($r)>0)
		{
		echo "<ul>";
		while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($r)) {
			getComments($row);
		}
		echo "</ul>";
		}	
}
?>

I tried this with JS, but it does not work: 

$(function(){
	$("a.reply").click(function() {
		var id = $(this).attr("id");
		$("#parent_id").attr("value", id);
		$("#comment_body").focus();    
	});
});

Hi,I used bootstrap to create a webpage and one of the special effects is when you scroll down the page the section you are at is highlighted in the menu. This seems to work ok for all of my sections except the About Me section in which case the next section down (resume) is highlighted instead.   Here is the specific area on the page (http://www.inspired-...p#section-about).   I was wondering if anyone familiar with Boostrap and the Amoeba theme had any suggestions on a fix for this.   thanks in advance.

Hi...

I have query in highlighting null data using this code:

Code: [Select]
<?php

include 'config.php';

$currentEmpID = $_SESSION['empID']; 
 
 if(!isset($_POST['Regsubmit_'])){ 
     
    $DATE1 = $_GET['Regfirstinput'];
    $DATE2   = $_GET['Regsecondinput'];
 
 $sql = "SELECT DISTINCT IF(ISNULL(a.LOG_IN), 'rdc', '') AS LOGIN_CLASS, IF(ISNULL(a.LOG_OUT), 'rdc', '') AS LOGOUT_CLASS, a.EMP_ID, CONCAT(LASTNAME, ', ' , FIRSTNAME) AS FULLNAME, a.LOG_IN, a.LOG_OUT
 FROM $ATTENDANCE.attendance_build AS a JOIN $ADODB_DB.employment em ON (a.EMP_ID = em.EMP_NO AND em.STATUS IN ('Reg Operatives', 'Reg Staff')) 
 WHERE LOG_IN BETWEEN '$DATE1' AND '$DATE2' 
 OR ISNULL(LOG_IN) OR ISNULL(LOG_OUT)";
 
    $DTR = $conn3->GetAll($sql);
    $smarty->assign('attendance', $DTR);
 }
 $smarty->display('header_att.tpl');
 $smarty->display('RegAttendance.tpl');
 $smarty->display('footer.tpl');
?>

and here is the tpl code:

Code: [Select]
{section name=att loop=$attendance}
  <tr>
    <td colspan="2">{$attendance[att].EMP_ID}</td>
    <td colspan="2">{$attendance[att].FULLNAME}</td> 
    <td colspan="2" class="{$attendance[att].LOGIN_CLASS}">{$attendance[att].LOG_IN|date_format:"%d-%m-%Y %I:%M %p"}</td>
    <td colspan="2" class="{$attendance[att].LOGOUT_CLASS}">{$attendance[att].LOG_OUT|date_format:"%d-%m-%Y %I:%M %p"}</td>
  </tr>
{sectionelse}
  <tr><td colspan="1">No DATA</td></tr>
{/section}

this code highlight the null value of login or logout or both.

this is the css:
Code: [Select]
.rdc {background-color:#ff0000;}

Now, I need to revised my query statement, because i have separate code for adding attendance if the employee has no attendance or no login or no logout.

I just want to happen is if the employee is already add his attendance in NRS table or should I said if the LOG_IN in attendance table is equal to TIME_IN in NRS table the data will have a color yellow.

For Example:

I have this data in attendance table:

EMP_ID = 012012
LOG_IN = NULL
LOG_OUT = 2011-12-12 13:35:00

I will his attendance in NRS table to have his attendance:

EMP_NO = 012012
TIME_IN = 2011-12-12 05:35:00
TIME_OUT = 2011-12-12 13:35:00



In my above query the LOG_IN has a background color of RED.

I want to happen is if I add his attendance in NRS the EMP_NO, LOG_IN, LOGOUT will have a color to notice that it is already have in NRS.

Because theirs a scenario that the employee has no login or no logout or both.


Feel free to ask me if my explanation is not clear to you.

Thank you in advance
