PHP - Parsing A String
I remember doing this over a year ago, but now I've completely forgotten how to do this, and I'd much appreciate some pointers:
I have a string as follows: 12|445|3|321|88|2 I'd like to do 2 things: First, I'd like to count the number of numbers (6 in this case: 12, 445, 3, 321, 88, 2); Then I'd like to enter them into an array. How do I go about this? Please help ... Similar TutorialsI got the below Div. I gather i got the following subtitles in the div (sometimes not all) $subtitle = array('Postal Address:','Street:','Town :','Telephone:','Mobile:','Contact Person:','Country:','e-mail:','Website:'); It occurs that the title is enclosed in font tag and the title text is what follows after the closing </font> upto the next <br>; Please help on retrieving The Title and the text. Regards <div align="left" id="tabledetails__"><font color="#4E779F" size="+1">Beverages Ltd</font><br> <font color="brown">Postal Address: </font>1604120 <br> <font color="brown">Street: </font>Karatina Town Council <br> <font color="brown">Town :</font>Kampala <br> <font color="brown">Telephone: </font>+254 414 983456 <br> <font color="brown"> Country: </font>Kenya <br> <font color="brown">e-mail: </font><a href="mailto:sales@karatina.co.ug">sales@karatina.co.ug</a> </div> Here's what I need to do: I have a page that reads file and simply echos it. $mystring = file_get_contents($file); echo "$mystring"; There is one piece of info I need to parse out and then use as part of my page title. The phrase I need to parse is an HTML comment field and looks like this: <!--PageTitle=<some text here> --> I'm sure this is simple but I'm clueless as you can tell. How can I do this? DryAquaman Hello, Any help would be great. I'm filtering and rss feed and to create a new feed with some <item>'s removed. Here is a snippet from the source file. <item> <title><h1>Indians, Pacers and Colts attendance is only part of story</h1></title> <link>http://www.newsweek.com/the-score/2010/07/29/indians-pacers-and-colts-draw-similar-sized-crowds/PARAMS/post/21385</link> <description></description> </item> <item> <title><h1>Declining attendance forcing Speedway to make changes</h1></title> <link>http://www.newsweek.com/declining-attendance-forcing-speedway-to-make-changes/PARAMS/article/21369</link> <description></description> </item> <item> <title><h1>Three issues that could derail Indy's 2012 Super Bowl</h1></title> <link>http://www.newsweek.com/the-score/2010/07/27/three-issues-that-could-derail-indys-2012-super-bowl/PARAMS/post/21341</link> <description></description> </item> I'm wanting to use the link tag to detect the item that need to be removed for the new rss feed. All <item>with <link> that contain http://www.newsweek.com/the-score/ as the beginning of the link need to be filtered out. Here is my code so far. <?php echo '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <rss version="2.0" xmlns:media = "http://search.yahoo.com/mrss"> <channel> <title>CLE Calendar</title> <description>CLE Calendar</description> <language>en-us</language> <pubDate>June 14, 2010</pubDate> <lastBuildDate>June 14, 2010</lastBuildDate> <ttl>15</ttl>'; ?> <?php $rss = new SimpleXMLElement('http://www.newsweek.com/mobile-app/rss/feed?rssId=18&premium=false', null, true); ?> <?php foreach ($rss->channel->item as $items): ?> <item> <title><?php echo '<h1>' . $items->title . '</h1>'; ?></title> <link><?php echo $items->link; ?></link> </item> <?php endforeach; ?> </channel> </rss> Thanks in advance, MK 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 This topic has been moved to PHP Regex. http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php?topic=326004.0 Hello all, I'm trying to change the end of a javascript call based on the end of the url string. The common part of all the url strings is sobi2Id=, I'm trying to do this with strstr but am having no luck. I'm new to php so my syntax knowledge is terrible! at the moment i've got Code: [Select] <?php $url = $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']; $tag = strstr ($url, 'sobi2Id='); echo $tag; ?> but this returns an unexpected T_STRING, expecting ',' or ';' Can anyone debug this? I may well be being really silly! Hey there, Thanks for taking the time to read my thread. My issue is that I can't think of a way to edit a XML file using PHP's XML functionality and then assign the edited contents to a string instead of saving the file. Because my issue is that I have to edit the XML file based upon a string brought from a remote location then give it back to that remote location using a string again, to be exact I am doing it via Linux command line utilizing SSH2. This is what I managed to complete on my own. function CheckIVMPConfig($ServerID) { global $Panel; if(is_numeric($ServerID) && $this->IsValidServer($ServerID)) { // We select the game server that the FTP account was created for. $Servers = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM control_servers WHERE server_id = '".mysql_real_escape_string($FTPAccount['ftp_server'])."'"); $Server = mysql_fetch_array($Servers); // Here we select the Box ID that the game server is on. $Boxs = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM control_machines WHERE machine_id = '".$Server['server_machine']."'"); $Box = mysql_fetch_array($Boxs); // Now we select the required package for the box. $Packages = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM control_packages WHERE package_id = '".$Server['server_package']."'"); $Package = mysql_fetch_array($Packages); // Retrive the file. $Config = $CProtocol->exec("cat /home/{$Server['server_id']}/{$Package['package_config']}"); $Parse = SimpleXMLElement($Config); foreach($Parse as $Entry) // loop through our books { if($Entry->port != $Server['server_port']) { // edit the value } else if($Entry->maxplayers > $Server['server_slots']) { // edit the value } } } } I have the following function, which takes a string with commas in it and attempts remove those commas. The way I have it here is that I use explode to take out the commas, which makes an array, and then iterate through that array to put a string back together without the commas. function tags_to_sort_by( $sortMeta ) { $sortByArray = explode(",", $sortMeta); $sortByCount = count($sortByArray); for ($i = 0; $i < $sortByCount; $i++) { $sortByString += $sortByArray[$i]; } return $sortByString; } What does not work is the following line: $sortByString += $sortByArray[$i]; Somehow that outputs a 0, which I don't understand. It should output something like: arrayItem1 arrayItem2 array3 etc. My question is if there either is an easier way to remove the commas from the original string or what I am doing wrong in this line: $sortByString += $sortByArray[$i]; // I am trying to concatenate each part of the array back into the string. Thanks a lot for help with this! hey guys im trying to find a string inside a string which could be made up of different things eg... {$test}, {$test1}, {$test2} etc (but the varable inside could be called anything hence maybe using regex im not sure?) is this possible?...i hope you guys understand....thanks
In PHP Version 8.0 shows error as : In previous versions of PHP it does not show any error. Please resolve the issue. Ok... I had typed this post out ONCE already and when I clicked REFRESH IMAGE to get a diff captcha it ERASED MY POST LMAO this is not my night.... What I need help with is probably more simple then I can even think right now - ive been digging at this for 3 hrs now and im out of time for the night I have a DB Record storing ID's between PIPES | when the initial entry is made in DB it stores it like so |47| NOTE: the number could be different these are ID's number doesnt matter its just between Pipes When the second entry is added its added like so |47||67| say we have a total of 5 Entries |47||67||82||55||69| I need to find ID 82 in that string and it has to be between Pipes Find 82 in data between | and return that ID 82 I am putting between pipes because the ID's can be duplicate digits in different lengths so say I have 8 as my ID and down the string i have another id as 88 -- I cant possibly find the correct ID without some sort of seperation character so i used Pipes soo my end goal is the ability to search and if true or false do action if ($result == $find_id){ echo "ID is there"; }else{ echo "NOT THERE -- Adding it"; } Any help is appreciated guys Thanks SangrelX I am looking for a date within larger string, lets say the date is December 4, 2010. To find it I use pattern and function below: $Pattern='/[(January|February|March|April|May|June|July|August|September|October|November|December)] \d, \d\d\d\d/i'; preg_match_all($Pattern, $String, $Matches, PREG_OFFSET_CAPTURE, $NumberPosition); The function finds the dates within the string but to my supprise the result I get in $Matches is: r 4, 2010 What I would like to get is: December 4, 2010 but don't know how it should be fixed. I thought that with the pattern I am using but obviously that is not the case. I need to know if a string exists within a string. I've tried using STRIPOS() but it returns zero or false if what I'm looking for is the first part of the string. I don't care what function I use, but I need to get a "true" when the needle string is present anywhere in the haystack string, even at location zero. Is there some way to set up the STRIPOS() statement? I've tried: if ((stripos($title, 'needle') > 0 ) if ((stripos($title, 'needle') = true ) and even if ((stripos($title, 'needle') >= 0 ) which returns true for everything, even when the needle string is NOT present. Any help appreciated. thanks, Tom Hello guys i am trying to figure out how to fwrite a string for example "Recommended Settings for Service Pack" under "Current Settings for Service Pack: 5.1.2600ServicePack3Build2600". I figure i cant use line number as an argument because the file report may be dynamic so i will need to use Current Settings as an argument. Please guide me if you have any ideas..thanks:) ! auditreport table ServicePackSetting Service Pack Requirement: Fail Current Settings for Service Pack: 5.1.2600ServicePack3Build2600 MajorAuditandAccountPolicies Maximum Password Age Requirement: Fail Current Settings for Maximum Password Age Requirement: 42 Minimum Password Length: Fail Current Settings for Minimum Password Length Requirement: 0 Hello everyone! I have been trying to figure out how I can go about this, and failing. I have a text file that lists records simply: ex: 99. I got in my friends "car", what a piece of crap... ex:100. It only goes 25mph. I need to parse it so that it uses the number to store in the table, or just remove everything and store the text to the end, using an auto increment for the line number(some span more than one line). The numbers cannot be used as a key either. The number of spaces after the number and period also varies, from 1-4. The text also contains other special characters such as quotes, numbers, commas, periods. Anyone have any ideas? I can't seem to get this to parse into an array:

Any help would be great thanks. Hello requinix. I am taking advantage of this thread to expose my problem: It looks like the load function does NOT work properly and I CANNOT find the reason why: Code: [Select] $xml = new DOMDocument(); $xml->load("data/slides.xml"); In debugging, I can see the creation of a DOMDocument but the load function does not fill the $xml with the relative data even if it returns True: Code: [Select] <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <album> <slide url="data/327.jpg" rel_URL="show_craft.php?id=327" title="Art. 327"></slide> <slide url="data/330.jpg" rel_URL="show_craft.php?id=330" title="Art. 330"></slide> <slide url="data/311.jpg" rel_URL="show_craft.php?id=311" title="Art. 311"></slide> <slide url="data/239.jpg" rel_URL="show_craft.php?id=239" title="Art. 239"></slide> <slide url="data/275.jpg" rel_URL="show_craft.php?id=275" title="Art. 275"></slide> <slide url="data/IMG_2691.jpg" rel_URL=" " title="Art.

In php.net, under DOMDocument::load page, there is a post that says "Function will not work if using XML DOM PECL module". In my phpinfo() there is only the "PECL Module version 2.0-dev $Id: sqlite.c 306939 2011-01-01 02:19:59Z felipe $ " under SQLite section enabled. I tried many things like changing xml path, replacing the xml file with a simpler one from, for example, w3schools but with no avail. I still get an empty document. I don't know where to bang my head since it looks like it's only me having this issue (search the web extensively). Any help is greatly appreciated.
