PHP - Dynamic Title Using Php

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:

Quote

http://img27.imageshack.us/i/shoppingheader1.jpg/


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
Natasha T.

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.

I've tried mysql_error(), yet nothing is displayed, but I'm pretty sure it may be something wrong with my query. After someone inputs their new information, site title in the database is changed to 0, and description isn't updated at all.., but it's still the same data as before and isn't changed.

if(!$_POST['title'] || !$_POST['description'])

{

echo "

<table><form action='account.php' method='POST'>

<input type='hidden' name='edit' value='1'>

<tr><td>Site Name</td><td><input type='text' name='title' value='". $grab['title'] ."'></td></tr>

<tr><td>Site Description</td><td><textarea name='description' rows='18' cols='40' maxlength='550'>". $grab['description'] ."</textarea></td></tr>

<tr><td>Finished?</td><td><input type='submit' value='Update Information'></td></tr>

</form></table>";

}

else

{

$title = mysql_real_escape_string(strip_tags($_POST['title']));

$description = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['description']);

$to_censor = array("fag", "ass", "asshole", "douchebag", "dumbass");

$new = str_replace($to_censor, "****", $description);

$description = strip_tags($new, "<b><i><a>");

mysql_query("UPDATE sites SET title = '$title' AND description = '$description' WHERE username = '". $_SESSION['user'] ."'") or die(mysql_error());

echo "Updated information successfully. <a href='account.php'>Back to My Account</a>";

}

Hello,
I am assigned a task to make alterations on a client website.
The header is an include on all pages.
Inside the header is the title tag which propogate to all pages. I want title different to each page, I will also add description and keyword. Is there a way to do this with PHP or should I have different header for each page.

thank you

Hi guys,
this is my problem.
I use wordpress and i have diffrent titles for every post. The php code for the title is <?php the_title(); ?>
I want to add my title after this url: http://search.msn.com/results.aspx?format=rss&FORM=RSRE&q=
That means if i have a post with this title: php tutorials
The url should be like this: http://search.msn.com/results.aspx?format=rss&FORM=RSRE&q=php+tutorials

This is the part of my php code that contains the url:

<?php

   $url="http://search.msn.com/results.aspx?format=rss&FORM=RSRE&q=php+tutorials";

   $rss=new rssFeed($url);

I tried this already but it is not working:

<?php

   $url="http://search.msn.com/results.aspx?format=rss&FORM=RSRE&q=<?php the_title(); ?>";

   $rss=new rssFeed($url);

Sorry, i hope you understand what i mean.

Code: [Select]
Echo "<img src='http://datenight.netne.net/images/".$info['img'] ."'title='.info['username']'"."' width='50' height='50'>";

im trying display the user's, username in the title when the mouse hovers over the img it displays the username of that image.

no errors just displays .info as title

thanks [/code]

I'm displaying a row of images but I can't seem to get the title to stay under the image. When I try to insert a <br> or <br />  the the $item_title, it changes the whole dynamics of the row, placing the $item_title next to the image rather than under it.

Here is the code:

$image_row .= "<tr height=\"200\"><td ><img src=\"image_files/{$item_photo}\" alt=\"{$item_name}\" /><br />{$item_title}&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</td></tr> </table>";

Hello - I have a search page that displays urls to a details page. Currently, the url looks like this: ".com/loc_details.php?loc_id=38" but I would like it to have the contents of the 'loc_name' field display after the id. Here is how it's being called in the code:
Code: [Select]
$output .= "<td><a href='loc_details.php?loc_id={$row['loc_id']}'>{$row['loc_name']}</a></td>\n";
The only thing I can think of to compare it to would be the pretty links that Wordpress offers.
The website for reference is www.giantstridedives.com/locations, so you can see it in action.

Thanks for any help!

Trying to figure this out...

Code: [Select]
<?php echo get_the_title(); ?>
works to display my wordpress post title on the page.

how can I echo that inside this code?

Code: [Select]
<?php if (function_exists('simple_feed_list')) : ?>
<?php
simple_feed_list('I WANT TO ECHO TITLE HERE'); ?>
<?php endif; ?>

I've got this code

Code: [Select]
<{assign var="title" value=$people->getTitle()|cat:" "|cat:$people->getName()|cat:" | Sea.com"}>
How do I write some text fx. 'visit' in the beginning of the title value?
Tried to do it like this

Code: [Select]
<{assign var="title" value=Visit $people->getTitle()|cat:" "|cat:$people->getName()|cat:" | Sea.com"}>But then I get an error.

Any help mych appriciated

On one of my pages I set the title like this
Code: [Select]
<{assign var="title" value=$people->getShow()|escape}>
The problem is I want the title to say getShow and getName

Tried to do it like this but I get an internal 500 error Code: [Select]
<{assign var="title" value=$people->getShow()|escape}$people->getName()|escape}>
How can I make this work?

Thanks in advance

l have a video site, and each title is generated dynamically on a <li>. The problem is  some titles are longer than others and spill on to the next <li> throwing my site all off. What i need to do is designate 2 lines for the titles just in case the title is too long.

Code: [Select]
<ul>
    <li><?php echo $title; ?></li>
    <li>///continue $title or add blank line so it doesn't throw everything off</li>
</ul>

Hi Guys (& Ladies of course) 

I'm having a problem trying to add post category to the H1 title, I have managed to butcher my theme so that the single post now removes the H1 from the title in the header & instead adds it to the post title.

But what I'd like to do now is keep the H1 blog title on all pages including home page, but I'd like to ammend the title with the addition of the post category, as follows;

currently shows "Top Rated Gadgets" on all pages.

would like it to show "Top Rated (category name)" when viewing a single post.

So if the category of the post was Asus Laptops it would show "Top Rated Asus Laptops" instead of the usual "Top Rated Gadgets"

The closest I have got to it so far is with
Code: [Select]
<?php the_category(', '); ?> but this returns a hyperlink ! Is there any method I can use that will simply return the category name as plain text..?

Any help would be much appreciated 

Thanks

Hello all,

I am using a simple iframe to include a facebook like box on my webpage.
Code: [Select]
<iframe src="http://www.facebook.com/plugins/likebox.php?id=<?php echo $pageID;?>&amp;width=<?php echo $width;?>&amp;colorscheme=<?php echo $colorScheme;?>&amp;show_faces=<?php echo $showFaces;?>&amp;connections=<?php echo $connection;?>&amp;stream=<?php echo $streams;?>&amp;header=<?php echo $header;?>&amp;height=<?php echo $height;?>" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" style="border:none; overflow:hidden; width:<?php echo $width;?>px; height:<?php echo $height;?>px;" allowTransparency="true"></iframe>
The problem is that I want to limit the title of the facebook page to 15 characters.

Any ideas on how I could do this?
