help convert .cfm to php

[flemingmike]

hi all, i found a sample code for displaying sports scores, it is in cfm, and i dont have cold fusion on my server.  here is the code below.

--->

<!--- Script can be a scheduled task or ran when the user requests it --->

<!--- This script works only with NFL and NCAA Football --->

<!--- Things that might be useful that I know about the String that comes from ESPN for NFL and NCAA Football --->
<!---
1.  When the game is over, the matchArray[i].matchDate = "FINAL" OR  NEQ "FINAL - OT"
2.  When the game is at halftime, the matchArray[i].matchDate = "HALFTIME"
3.  These are the only times when matchArray[i].matchDate is not a date, but a string
4.  The URL string is updated ever 120 seconds
5.  NBA, NHL are a little more tricky because it lists some stats after the game 
    (Anybody who decides to parse these, please let me know. I don't have the need right now
    but I would like to have the code
--->

<!--- Known ESPN URL STRINGS --->
<!---
NFL:            http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/bottomline/scores
NBA:            http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/bottomline/scores
MLB:            http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/bottomline/scores
NHL:            http://sports.espn.go.com/nhl/bottomline/scores
NCAA Football:  http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/bottomline/scores
GOLF:           http://sports.espn.go.com/sports/golf/bottomLineGolfLeaderboard
Nascar:         http://sports.espn.go.com/rpm/bottomline/race
WNBA:           http://sports.espn.go.com/wnba/bottomline/scores
ESPN Headlines: http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/bottomline/news

<!--- To debug, try removing the cftry's --->
<!--- Set to false to hide the string and url --->
<cfset ShowNFLEspnString = false>

<!--- Set to false to hide the dump of the games --->
<cfset ShowGameDump = false>

<!--- Set to false to hide the Pass | Fail Message  --->
<cfset ShowPassFail = false>

<!--- And away... We... GO! --->
<cftry>
    
<!--- Lets do NFL --->    
<cfset espn = "http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/bottomline/scores">

<cfhttp url="#espn#" method="get" resolveurl="yes" throwonerror="yes" />
<cfset myArray = arrayNew(1) />

<cfoutput>
    <br />
    ESPN NFL String URL: <a href="#espn#">#espn#</a><br />
    <br />
    #myResult#<br />
    <br />
    </cfoutput>
</cfif>

<cfset j = 1 />
<!---parse the urls, don't touch --->
<cfset newResult = #REReplace(myResult, "%20%20", "@", "all")# />
<cfset newResult = #REReplace(newResult, "%20", " ", "all")# />
<cfset newResult = #REReplace(newResult, "%26", "", "all")# />

<cfset newResult = #REReplace(newResult, "[(]", "@(", "all")# />
<cfset newResult = #REReplace(newResult, "[()]", "", "all")# />

<!---loop over the urls and store the teams in a array--->
<cfloop list="#newResult#" index="i" delimiters="#chr(38)#">
    <!--- Sometimes espn has a item with no teams or scores --->
    <!--- If this is the case, a try catch will keep the loop going so it doesn't crash --->

	<cfset myArray[j] = listgetat("#i#", 2, "=") />
        <cfset j = j + 1 />

thanks.

Thanks for what?

[flemingmike]

i need to know if anyone can easily make this php or html.  im thanking in advance

[trq]

Were not here to write code for people. I suggest you learn enough cold fusion to pull this apart and turn it into php. Or, if you know php well enough, just write it from scratch.

[flemingmike]

ive never parsed data in php.  any tutorials anyone knows of?

[flemingmike]

i need to rewrite this in php, but i have no idea how.  anybody able to help?

[hcdarkmage]

You could google php tutorials to help you out. Or better yet you can go to http://www.w3schools.com. OR even better, if you want someone to do the work for you, you can ask to have this moved to the freelance forum.
