[modifying the format of date and numbers]

Absolutely marvelous! exactly what I needed ... thanks a million! 

[modifying the format of date and numbers]

Since I get numbers and date from strings, they are in an ugly raw format as e.g. "14728293" and "2011-01-19". How to make the format stylish as "14,728,293" and "January 19, 2011" 

[Showing images for rating]

Thanks sasa, it works perfectly 

 

Definitely, I meant the first one, as the second one may lead to 5.5, which is indeed invalid.

 

Thanks for your kind support 

[Showing images for rating]

I have a string for rating, containing numbers from 0-5. How I can assign an image to each range:

 

0-0.5 displaying 05.jpg

0.5-1.0 displaying 10.jpg

.

.

.

4.5-5.0 displaying 50.jpg

 

[Removing http:// links from a string]

As far as I am testing, it is completely OK Thanks 

[404 redirecting to a search page]

Thanks a million, it works perfectly 

[Removing http:// links from a string]

The end of each url is a space; as a matter of fact, we should consider the phrase between http:// and the next (first) space

[Removing http:// links from a string]

Thanks, but this replaces only "http://". I want to delete the whole phrase (the url).

[Removing http:// links from a string]

I have a string containing long text. How can I remove links (in plain text, not hyperlink) starting with http://? In fact, I need a code to replace everything that is started with "http://" with "".

 

Thanks 

[404 redirecting to a search page]

Thanks for your kind assistance. My problem is that

$url = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];

considers the error page at "http://mysite.com/404.php" instead of the misspelled url.

 

For example, if someone write "http://mysite.com/something-wrong.html",

$url = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];
echo $url;

will show "http://mysite.com/404.php

[404 redirecting to a search page]

How can I write a 404 file to redirected any 'not found' page with structure of example.com/something/more/final.html to example.com/search?q=something+more+final 

 

Thanks 

[write from a url to array (Yahoo keyword suggestion)]

Thanks! It works perfectly 

[write from a url to array (Yahoo keyword suggestion)]

I get this error

Warning: file_get_contents(http%3A%2F%2Fsearch.yahooapis.com%2FWebSearchService%2FV1%2FrelatedSuggestion%3Fappid%3DYahooDemo%26query%3DMadonna%26results%3D2) [function.file-get-contents]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in

 

and this one

Warning: implode() [function.implode]: Invalid arguments passed in

[write from a url to array (Yahoo keyword suggestion)]

With this link http://search.yahooapis.com/WebSearchService/V1/relatedSuggestion?appid=YahooDemo&query=Madonna&results=2 , one can see suggested keywords for a query. The result is like "madonna 4 minutes madonna 4 minutes lyrics". How to put the resulting keywords in a $array, as can be used for further php coding.

[creating url list with http_build_url]

Just out of curiosity; in the first version where the link is generated for each random word as

<?php
$titles_array = array("one","two","three","four","five","six","seven","eight","nine","word8","word3","word4","word9","anotherword","hello","funny","great","cool","nice");

shuffle($titles_array);
$i = 0;
foreach ($titles_array as $titles => $title) {
$title = trim($title);
$make_link = "http://example.com/$title";
$link = "<a href='$make_link'>$title</a>";
echo "$link<br />";
    if (++$i == 5) break;
}

?>

we have the same CPU issue? I mean that php reads throughout the file to find a random word?

[creating url list with http_build_url]

I have a technical question: in the last code, we process the arrays in three foreach commands to process, then we randomly catch 5 of them and display. Imagine that the arrays are too long come from large txt files (e.g. 1GB). Does this overload the CPU usage?

[strip link from Tags in Wordpress]

In Wordpress, the hyperlinked tags are displayed by

<?php the_tags(); ?>

I want to de-link the tags to show simple text (instead of link). I tried

ereg_replace

to replace hyperlink elements;

strip_tags

, but none of them worked. 

[creating url list with http_build_url]

Yes, I already have what I wanted. You are a (challenging) php hero 

 

I hope others also benefit your talents! 

 

Thanks again! 

[creating url list with http_build_url]

WOW! programming and coding is matter of tricky way of thinking. I doubt if I ever had this talent. 

 

Thanks a million! 

[creating url list with http_build_url]

This is so kind of you. Actually, I made some efforts to modify the code. My problem was to use two 'foreach'. As you see, when we use

foreach ($titles_array as $titles => $title)

, we have the chance to use $title for making the url. But when using

foreach ($links as $make_link)

, the $title disappears and cannot be used for the link title. The problem is that we cannot have two variables, $links (as a mixture of initial variables: $domain, $tld, and $title) and $title for making the hyperlink.

Many thanks for your useful help! 

[Related words captured from a text]

What do you think of considering long words (e.g. with more than 8 characters), then all common words like "of" "the" will be omitted. It is not perfect, but at least it works

 

any idea?

[creating url list with http_build_url]

Sorry for many questions, but I really liked this amazing solution. In the case of

<?php
$titles_array = array("one","two","three","four","five","six","seven","eight","nine","word8","word3","word4","word9","anotherword","hello","funny","great","cool","nice");

shuffle($titles_array);
$i = 0;
foreach ($titles_array as $titles => $title) {
$title = trim($title);
$make_link = "http://example.com/$title";
$link = "<a href='$make_link'>$title</a>";
echo "$link<br />";
    if (++$i == 5) break;
}

?>

 

How it is possible to define a list of urls too. I mean having an array file containing

http://example1.com

http://example2.com

http://example3.com

 

and make links randomly by the urls and words 

[Related words captured from a text]

i am prettyy sure you don't mean frequently repeated words. But keywords

otherwise you end-up with words like: " I are is we do etc "

 

You are quite right fortnox007. I assumed to avoid such common words. Exactly, I mean keywords.

[Related words captured from a text]

What do you mean by the "main words of the text"?

 

I mean frequently repeated words. I consider SEO issues to capture tags.
