gordsmash Posted September 30, 2009 Author Share Posted September 30, 2009 Are there any example codes that you have? Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/176011-code-your-own-bb-codes/#findComment-927447 Share on other sites More sharing options...
trq Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 I myself don't have any examples but I'm sure Googling 'php bbcode' would get you some results. Never seen the point in bbcode myself.

gordsmash Posted September 30, 2009 Author Share Posted September 30, 2009 Is it possible to use the str_replace function to code them that way? Or is the PEAR way the only way.

Alex Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 Sure, you can use str_replace, or even better would be preg_replace() Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/176011-code-your-own-bb-codes/#findComment-927907 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evilace Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 try these, i made one from this google phpbb or http://www.phpbb.com/ Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/176011-code-your-own-bb-codes/#findComment-927913 Share on other sites More sharing options...
cags Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 Why would preg_replace be better? If gordsmash just wishes to substitute one string for the other surely str_replace would be better.

If you were doing str_replace you'd do something like this: $text = str_replace(Array('[b]', '[/b]'), Array('<b>', '</b>'), $text); Now say if someone entered this text: [b]Hello world There would be no closing </b> tag, which can cause problems (be it display problems or validation issues).

Psycho Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 Here is some sample code I have laying around. You can add your own options by modifying $patters and $replacements accordingly <?php //bbcode $patterns = array( //BB Code "/\[[b]\](.*?)\[\/b\]/is", "/\[[i]\](.*?)\[\/i\]/is", "/\[[u]\](.*?)\[\/u\]/is", "/\[[s]\](.*?)\[\/s\]/is", "/\[marquee\](.*?)\[\/marquee\]/is", "/\[url\](.*?)\[\/url\]/is", "/\[url=(.*?)\](.*?)\[\/url\]/is", "/\[img\](.*?)\[\/img\]/is", "/\[quote\](.*?)\[\/quote\]/is", "/\[(size|color)=(.*?)\](.*?)\[\/\\1\]/is", "/\[br\]/i", //Emoticons "/ \:\) /", "/ \:\( /", "/ \ /", "/ \ /", "/ \:\| /", "/ \ /", "/ \:\? /", "/ \;\) /"); $replacements = array( //BB Code "<b>\\1</b>", "<i>\\1</i>", "<u>\\1</u>", "<s>\\1</s>", "<marquee>\\1</marquee>", "<a href=\"\\1\">\\1</a>", "<a href=\"\\1\" target=\"_blank\">\\2</a>", "<img border=\"0\" src=\"\\1\">", "<div><b>Quote:</b> <i>\\1</i></div>", "<font \\1=\"\\2\">\\3</font>", "<br />", //Emoticons " <img src=\"smilies/happy.gif\" border=\"0\"> ", " <img src=\"smilies/angry.gif\" border=\"0\"> ", " <img src=\"smilies/omg.gif\" border=\"0\"> ", " <img src=\"smilies/tounge.gif\" border=\"0\"> ", " <img src=\"smilies/dry.gif\" border=\"0\"> ", " <img src=\"smilies/biggrin.gif\" border=\"0\"> ", " <img src=\"smilies/confused.gif\" border=\"0\"> ", " <img src=\"smilies/wink.gif\" border=\"0\"> " ); $string = "[b]This is bold text[/b] [i]this is italic text[/i] [b][i]This is bold, italic text[/b][/i]"; $result = preg_replace($patterns,$replacements,$string); echo $result; ?> EDIT: had to remove the BBCode optins for [ code ] as it was screwing up my post.

Not only that, there is no way you could use str_replace() to parse something like "Go here" into a valid link without regular expressions. Well, I suppose you could do it with a lot of various scripts to process the text multiple times, but it would be pointless since you can do it very easily with regular expressions.
