How can i Make this code below grab the 3rd line of the file I am feeding through it and make it the subject line of the email? I'm kinda php dumb and this is likely really simple. #!/usr/bin/php <?php # E-mail recipient(s). Separate each address with a comma and a space. $emailrecip = "REMOVED"; # E-mail subject line. $emailsubject = "REMOVED"; # E-mail From name. $emailfromname = "REMOVED"; # E-mail From address. $emailfromaddr = "REMOVED"; $fp = fopen('php://stdin','r'); $data = ""; while(!feof($fp)) { $data .= fgets($fp,4096); } fclose($fp); $timestamp = "REMOVED"; $timestamp .= date("D, j M Y G:i:s O "); $timestamp .= "\n"; $timestamp .= "Emailed to you at: %EMAILSTAMP%"; $timestamp .= "\n"; # Send the e-mail. $subject = $emailsubject; $recipient = $emailrecip; $body_of_email = $timestamp; $body_of_email .= trim($data); $header = 'From: "' . $emailfromname . '" <' . $emailfromaddr . '>'; $header .= "\n"; $header .= "X-Priority: 1"; $header .= "\n"; mail ($recipient, $subject, $body_of_email, $header); echo ("E-mail sent."); ?>

#!/usr/bin/php <?php # E-mail recipient(s). Separate each address with a comma and a space. $emailrecip = "removed"; # E-mail From name. $emailfromname = "removed"; # E-mail From address. $emailfromaddr = "removed"; $fp = fopen('php://stdin','r'); $data = ""; while(!feof($fp)) { $new_data = fgets($fp,4096); $data .= $new_data; $data_array[$i++]=$new_data; } fclose($fp); $patterns = array(); $patterns[0] = '/CWTO/'; $patterns[1] = '/CWWG/'; $patterns[2] = '/CWVR/'; $patterns[3] = '/CWHX/'; $patterns[4] = '/CWUL/'; $replacements = array(); $replacements[0] = '-ON-'; $replacements[1] = '-Prairies-'; $replacements[2] = '-BC-'; $replacements[3] = '-Maritimes-'; $replacements[4] = '-QC-'; $data_array = preg_replace($patterns, $replacements, $data_array); $split_line = explode(' ', $data_array[2]); $subject = $split_line[0].' '.$split_line[1].' '.trim($data_array[3]); # Send the e-mail. $recipient = $emailrecip; $body_of_email = trim($data); $header = 'From: "' . $emailfromname . '" <' . $emailfromaddr . '>'; $header .= "\n"; $header .= "X-Priority: 1"; $header .= "\n"; mail ($recipient, $subject, $body_of_email, $header); echo ("E-mail sent."); ?> I kinda went a different direction with it. The first 3 arrays work but the 4th one never seems to fire and I was wondering if anyone can tell me why.

If the data from the file is already passed to the php via this $fp = fopen('php://stdin','r'); $data = ""; while(!feof($fp)) { $data .= fgets($fp,4096); } fclose($fp); would file_get_contents still work on $data?

I'm trying to find the write coding to pull the First and Second words from the 2nd line and the entire 3rd line from this file and have them as $subject1 and $subject2 And I have no php background. http://www.weatherserver.net/text/CWTO/WOCN11.txt so $subject1 = WOCN11 CWTO and $subject2 = SPECIAL WEATHER STATEMENT

It should be sending email IF the file on my server does not match the file being pulled OR does not exist at all on my server. But it is as if it's reading a buffer or cache from someplace else. if I delete the file on my server and try to trigger the script it runs like the file is there.

This has me confused. I've posted the code here for easy reading <?php # ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- # Configuration # Directory on the remote server. Be sure to include leading and trailing slashes! $remotedir = "/pub/data/raw/wt/"; # File on the remote server. No slashes! $remotefile = "wtnt31.knhc.tcp.at1.txt"; # Keyword to check for in response. $keyword = "$$"; # Remote server address. $remoteserver = "weather.noaa.gov"; # E-mail recipient(s). Separate each address with a comma and a space. $emailrecip = "REMOVED"; # E-mail subject line. $emailsubject = "[NHC] WTNT31 -"; # E-mail From name. $emailfromname = "REMOVED"; # E-mail From address. $emailfromaddr = "REMOVED"; $txtfilename = $remotefile; # End Configuration # ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- # Format the page for easy viewing. Header( "Content-type: text/plain"); # Setup the request. $ch = curl_init(); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, "http://" . $remoteserver . $remotedir . $remotefile); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0); $res = curl_exec($ch); curl_close($ch); $result = array_map('trim',explode("\n",$res)); # Check for keyword. if (!in_array($keyword,$result)) die("Weather Coding not found!"); # Read the file containing the last response. $filename = $txtfilename . '.txt'; if (file_exists($filename)) { $contents = array_map('trim',file($filename)); # Check for changes. if (count(array_diff(array_unique($contents),array_unique($result))) == 0) { # There has not been a change. echo ("No Updates\r\n"); } else { # There has been a change. echo ("**UPDATES DETECTED**\r\n"); # Write the new file. echo implode("\n",$result); file_put_contents($filename,implode("\n",$result)); $subject = $emailsubject . $result[3]; # Send the e-mail. $recipient = $emailrecip; $body_of_email = implode("\n",$result); $header = 'From: "' . $emailfromname . '" <' . $emailfromaddr . '>'; $header .= "\n"; $header .= "X-Priority: 1"; $header .= "\n"; mail ($recipient, $subject, $body_of_email, $header); echo ("E-mail sent."); } } else { # Write the new file. echo implode("\n",$result); file_put_contents($filename,implode("\n",$result)); } ?> This is what it is doing and it's confusing me. If the text on the webserver changes the script runs normally and writes to the file and emails. If I delete the .txt from my server the script SHOULD run normally and send out an email and write a new file. What it is doing is writing is skipping the email part, and jumping right to this part. else { # Write the new file. echo implode("\n",$result); file_put_contents($filename,implode("\n",$result)); } It's as if it is reading from a buffer because it's not reading from the .txt file because I deleted it but writes the txt file back to the drive. What am i missing to get it to run normally? Windows 2008 64bit R2, IIS7 and PHP FastCGI 5.1.3

Thank you for your help. It works good.

Wow

Ok so the script above works kinda. The output to the screen is Array ( ) No Updates E-mail sent. And it does send the email the only issue is on each refresh it does it again. It isn't writing to the WTNT32.txt file so it has a record of the last email. So each refresh is a new email again.

Oh wait google was my friend. Curl Support. :-p

Wow, ok I wasn't expecting a rewrite but i'll take it. When I run the script it does this. <br /> <b>Fatal error</b>: Call to undefined function curl_init() in <b>C:\WEATHERSCRIPTS\NHCTest\WTNT32.php</b> on line <b>37</b><br />

Please please don't fight over me, I have enough questions for everyone. *sigh* I chased everyone away.

Pretty much I am trying to use the line that is being captured as the subject rather then the current subject. <? # ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- # Configuration # Directory on the remote server.

That not working and I think it's because the .txt file itself it just one long line rather then split up like the org. text. How hard would it be to just capture the text between "BULLETIN" and "NWS" That will just capture the line I want.

Small problem... I am php stupid, no real programming background and what you just said was like german to me. :'(

Comes from plain text. And I just underlined it on here to highlight it.

I'm trying to capture a line in a script. The script itself runs and produces the text as $result I'm trying to capture the underlined line. The issue I am having is it changes depend on the storm it may be longer or shorter but NEVER changes positions from line 6 so it would be easier to tell it to copy line 6 to $subject. Does this make any sense to anyone what I am trying to do? 194 WTNT32 KNHC 290231 TCPAT2 BULLETIN TROPICAL STORM GUSTAV ADVISORY NUMBER 17 NWS TPC/NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL AL072008 1100 PM EDT THU AUG 28 2008

Ok I will first say I know very very very little php and this is confusing me. This script was made for me and worked until this year and I can't figure it out. It reads from this page. http://www.mto.gov.on.ca/english/traveller/conditions/rdclosure.htm and pretty much need to reads just the parts between. <!-- TemplateBeginEditable name="content" --> and </DIV> on the HTML below. Problem is this year it started doing this. Reading "http://www.mto.gov.on.ca/english/traveller/conditions/rdclosure.htm". Searching for " "..." ". Searching for "". Number of current events = 1 Number of old events = 0 Fatal error: Cannot use string offset as an array in C:\WEATHERSCRIPTS\mto\test\roadclosed.php on line 44 And they changed the webpage and I can't figure out how to fix it. I've been trying to for 4 days now when I get time off work. I figure it is something really easy but not knowing PHP it isn't going to be easy for me to find. I've tried changing the part of the code but with no luck either. I hope someone can help.

I'm not sure I am doing this right. $removedata = ("THIS IS A WARNING THAT SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ARE IMMINENT OR OCCURRING IN THESE REGIONS. REMEMBER SOME SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS PRODUCE TORNADOES..LISTEN FOR UPDATED WARNINGS. EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT ONTARIO RECOMMENDS TAKING COVER IMMEDIATELY WHEN THREATENING WEATHER APPROACHES."); $replacedata =""; str_replace($removedata, $replacedata, $pagedata); My PHP script reads the page, saves it to a txt file and emails it off. I need it to remove the part above before saving and emailing. I will be adding some other lines that need to be removed also. Am I doing it right?

Little more detail. This script used to read the coding from the URL for anything between <DIV></DIV> But the page has changed and now there is multiple DIV's in it now. If you run the script you will see the error. I have tried to edit the script at this point. $webpage = read_web($url); $content = find_data($webpage, "<DIV>", "</DIV>"); // All content is in the <DIV></DIV> $content = find_data($content, "<TABLE", "</TABLE>"); // Look for the events HTML table to have it start at different points but I still get the same error. It's likely something simple I overlooked.

So is the 3rd Party Script forum the place where bad people go?  It's not a 3rd Party Script. It was a script created for me which you won't find anyplace else online that anyone else can use. The only problem is the guy who created it for me got shipped overseas for 6 months.

I am trying to make an if statement that does the following but I can't figure out how to word it or where to place it. if $message == There are no reported closures.  then DIE; Now I think it needs to be before this part. [code]//Send an email if there is a new event if ($send_email) {   print ("Sending the message below to " . $email_recip . ", from \"" . $email_from . "\" <" .$email_from_addr . ">.\n" . $event_message . "\n");   mail ($email_recip, $email_subject, $event_message, "From: \"" . $email_from . "\" <" .$email_from_addr . ">");   print ("Found a new event:\nRegion: " . $curr_events[$curr_event_num][1] . "\nHighway(s): " . $curr_events[$curr_event_num][0] . "\nReason: " . $curr_events[$curr_event_num][2] . "\n==========\n"); } [/code] So that it stops the script from sending the email. Does this help any?
