PHP - How To Replace Data Associated With An Existing Object In Splobjectstorage?

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']);
}

Hey all,

I want to have an object that has a property which is an object containing instances of other objects. I try this:
Code: [Select]
class Blog extends Posts {
public $has_posts;

public function __construct($a,$b,$c){
$has_posts = (object) array_merge((array) $a, (array) $b, (array) $c);
}
}

class Posts {
public $b;

public function __construct($b){
$this->b = $b;
}
}

$post1 = new Posts(1);
$post2 = new Posts(2);
$post3 = new Posts(3);

$blog = new Blog($post1,$post2,$post3);
var_dump($blog->has_posts); //null
foreach($blog->has_posts as $post){ //Invalid argument supplied for foreach()
echo $post->b;
}

But as you see, has_posts is null, not an object containing other objects.

Thanks for response.

I have a Soup object in a Bowl object in a Microwave object.

The Microwave object has the methods:

receiveItem(Bowl $b)
cookItem(???)

I want the Microwave to be able to set the Soup->temperature but I'm not how to do that?

Make sense?

Is there a way to instantiate a PDO object using an already existing database connection? Or does PDO detect an already opened connection and use it? The existing connection is a persistant connection.

Hi

Can anyone help me please, I am trying to place a PHP calendar into an existing DIV tag that used to hold a flash slideshow application, but we want to replace that with a calendar.

Here is my code:

Code: [Select]
echo '<div class="grid_9">
<div class="box">
<h2>'.$titleone.'</h2>
<div class="block">';
if (!defined('BLOCK_FILE'))
{
  Header('Location: ../index.php');
    die();
}

$modName = 'GCalendar';             

$blockConfig =
   array('maxTitle'     => 21,               
         'eventPrefix'  => '&bull;&nbsp;',   
         'maxEvents'    => 10,               
         'lookahead'    => 2,               
         'twoColumn'    => false,           
                                           
         'excludeCats'  => array(),
         'force_center' => false,           
        );


require_once 'modules/' . $modName . '/language.php';
gcalGetLang($modName);
require_once 'modules/' . $modName . '/gcal.inc.php';
require_once 'modules/' . $modName . '/common.inc.php';
require_once 'modules/' . $modName . '/getMonthlyEvents.php';
require_once 'modules/' . $modName . '/gcalBlock.php';

$config = getConfig();

list($year, $month, $today) = explode(',', date('Y,n,j'));
$block = new GCalBlock($year, $month, $today, $config, $blockConfig);

$content = $block->calendar();
$content .= '<br />';
$content .= $block->upcomingEvents();

echo '</div>
</div>
</div>';

When I try this above, I just get an 'Too many page loads' error, so I'm not sure what I've done wrong.

Any help appreciated.

I spent some time "Googling" today but all I found was how to create PDFs on the fly.
What I wonder is if it is possible to print text on an existing PDF. And if so, could I get some pointer where to obtain this knowledge?

Simply put. I have a PDF form that is not yet filled out. I would like to be able to look up an address and other information in a database, and use that information to print on the existing PDF file.

Any help is much appreciated.

<?php
if(!isset($_SESSION))

session_start();

if(empty($_SESSION['userID']) || $_SESSION['authorized'] != true ) {



header("Location: login.php");

Hi all,

Can anyone help me ?


thanks in Advance.

Hi guys,

using the code below within an admin panel to create a drop down allowing the user to select the profiles they wish to assign to the record they're creating, problem we have is that once a record is created, if they need to edit it for what ever reason the selected profile option isn't sticking. I've played around with lots of variants of if existing_record to try and get it add selected="selected" into the code but failed at every attempt, any advice gratefully received.

Code: [Select]
<?php

// List only breeder profiles in the database

  echo '<select name="profile" class="textinput noborder">';
  echo '<option value="any">Any</option>';

        $qryGetDistinctProfile = "SELECT * FROM profiles ORDER BY title ASC";
        $resGetDistinctProfile = mysql_query($qryGetDistinctProfile,$connection) or die(mysql_error());

        if(mysql_num_rows($resGetDistinctProfile) > 0){

$id       =  mysql_result($resProfile, 0, "id");
          
         while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($resGetDistinctProfile)){
           
          echo  '<option value="'.$row['id'].'" >'.$row['title'].'</option>';

         }

        }

  echo '</select>';
?>

Okay so I have a time in the format yyyy-mm-dd that is pulled from a MySQL array row and I need to add one month to it then echo that out. I assume it has something to do with the strtotime() and date() functions but I have tried every combination and cannot figure it out. Can I get some assistance please and thank you? Very very very new to php.

Here is what I have lol;
Code: [Select]
$row=mysql_fetch_array($result);
$ddaterow=$row['donation_date'];
Like I said the date will always be in the format yyyy-mm-dd

I would like to support UTF-8 on my website but am unsure - and quite fearful - whether it will break my existing code or not?!

I looked at http://us3.php.net/mbstring(), but worry that I'm going to miss something.

Here is some sample code where I think things could easily break...

// Trim all Form data.
$trimmed = array_map('trim', $_POST);


// ************************
// Validate Form Data. *
// ************************

// Validate First Name.
if (empty($trimmed['firstName'])){
// No First Name.
$errors['firstName'] = 'Enter your First Name.';
}else{
// First Name Exists.
if (preg_match('#^[A-Z \'.-]{2,30}$#i', $trimmed['firstName'])){
// Valid First Name.
$firstName = $trimmed['firstName'];
}else{
// Invalid First Name.
$errors['firstName'] = 'First Name must be 2-30 characters (A-Z \' . -)';
}
}//End of VALIDATE FIRST NAME


// Validate Username.
if (empty($trimmed['username'])){
// No Username.
$errors['username'] = 'Enter your Username.';
}else{
// Username Exists.
if (preg_match('~(?x) # Comments Mode
^ # Beginning of String Anchor
(?=.{8,30}$) # Ensure Length is 8-30 Characters
.* # Match Anything
$ # End of String Anchor
~i', $trimmed['username'])){
// Valid Username.


// ******************************
// Check Username Availability. *
// ******************************

// Build query.
$q1 = 'SELECT id
FROM member
WHERE username=?';

// Prepare statement.
$stmt1 = mysqli_prepare($dbc, $q1);

// Bind variable to query.
mysqli_stmt_bind_param($stmt1, 's', $trimmed['username']);

// Execute query.
mysqli_stmt_execute($stmt1);

// Store results.
mysqli_stmt_store_result($stmt1);

// Check # of Records Returned.
if (mysqli_stmt_num_rows($stmt1)>0){
// Duplicate Username.
$errors['username'] = 'This Username is taken.  Try again.';
}else{
// Unique Username.
$username = $trimmed['username'];
}
}else{
// Invalid Username.
$errors['username'] = 'Username must be 8-30 characters.';
}
}//End of VALIDATE USERNAME



Three possible areas where I could run into trouble are with...

1.) array_map

2.) preg_match

3.) Prepared Statements


For #2, I see there is mb_ereg_match but I am not sure if I just replace my current Regex function with that one, or if there is more involved.

I'm not sure if any problems would arise with #1 or #3 or elsewhere, and would really appreciate a second set of eyes on this code!!

requinix said switching is a good idea, but I'm pretty freaked out that I'm going to break things and create a big security hole?!   

Any help would be appreciated!!

Thanks,


Debbie

Hey,

I have just started using cookies and have got the basic idea of creating and accessing the simple cookies but now I am wanting to be able to check if a cookie already exists on the users computer before overwriting the current one.

Code: [Select]
<?php
if(!isset($_COOKIE['testCookie'])){
setcookie("TestCookie",
 "username",
 time() + (24 * 60)
 )
}
?>
<html>....</html>

At the moment my page just doesn't get past this piece of code any ideas?

Cheers
