troubles with split function

[mike16889]

im trying to make a script to mass replace the start of some urls. they are to be submitted into a text input box (seporated onto 1 URL per line). but i can't seem to get it to work. i'm sure its simple but hey, i'm a bigginer!

 

<?php
$urls = $_POST['urls'];

$x = 0;

$array = split('\n\r', $urls);

$arraysize = count($array);

echo $arraysize;

while ($x < $arraysize){

	echo '<p>'.$array[$x].'</p><p>'.$x.'</p>';

	$pos = strrpos ($array[$x], "domain.com");

	$urla = str_split($array[$x], $pos);

	echo '<p>'.$array[$x].'</p>';
	$x++;
	echo '<p><a href="'.$urla[1].'">Link '.$x.'</a></p>'; 
}
?>

 

well there it is, can't think of anything else i need to tell you exept that its not actualy spliting the stuff up into new lines.

Are you sure that the delimiter you specified '\r\n' us actually being used? Try changing this to just '\n' or something else and see if the results change.

yea i tried that first but decided to chuck the \r in but it didn't work.

The single quotes treat \n as a literal \n, not a new line. Try "\r\n".

cool thanks ill try that whhen i get home

Cool that worked but now for some reason its spliting the urls up into chunks of 7 charicters. not rly a problem i just put the following string in

echo '<p><a href="http://'.$username.':'.$password.'@'.$urla[1].$urla[2].$urla[3].$urla[4].$urla[5].$urla[6].$urla[7].$urla[8].$urla[9].$urla[10].$urla[11].$urla[12].$urla[13].$urla[14].$urla[15].$urla[16].$urla[17].$urla[18].$urla[19].$urla[20].$urla[21].$urla[22].$urla[23].$urla[24].$urla[25].$urla[26].$urla[27].$urla[28].$urla[29].$urla[30].$urla[31].$urla[32].$urla[33].$urla[34].$urla[35].$urla[36].$urla[37].$urla[38].$urla[39].$urla[40].'">Link '.$x.'</a></p>'; 

but it someone has a solution id like to here it!

do a print_r($_POST) and tell us what you get.

 

 

or just echo out $urls.  We need to see what data you're working with in order to understand you.
