geomc Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 How do you selectively BOLD output array elements from three arrays? My code has only one output line. I am creating a madlib php program and I want my nouns to be in bold, my verbs to be italicized, and my adjectives to be underlined. Where would I implement this? Thanks. Here is my code: $counter=0;$nounCounter=0;$verbCounter=0;$adjCounter=0;$newSentArray = $sentArray; // copy $sentArraywhile ( $counter < count($sentArray)) // loop over words in array{ if($sentArray[$counter] == "NOUN" or $sentArray[$counter] == "NOUN." or $sentArray[$counter] == "NOUN!") { // replace current word with noun $newSentArray[$counter] = $nounArray[$nounCounter]; $nounCounter++; // increment noun, so next noun in used for replacement } elseif($sentArray[$counter] == "VERB" or $sentArray[$counter] == "VERB." or $sentArray[$counter] == "VERB!") { // replace current word with verb $newSentArray[$counter] = $verbArray[$verbCounter]; $verbCounter++; // increment verb, so next verb in used for replacement } elseif($sentArray[$counter] == "ADJECTIVE" or $sentArray[$counter] == "ADJECTIVE." or $sentArray[$counter] == "ADJECTIVE!") { // replace current word with adjective $newSentArray[$counter] = $adjArray[$adjCounter]; $adjCounter++; // increment adjective, so next adjective in used for replacement } $counter++;}// implode words array into a stringecho implode(' ', $newSentArray); Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barand Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 (edited) $text = "I bought a NOUN and a NOUN"; $text = str_replace("NOUN", "<span style='font-weight:700'>NOUN</span>", $text); // now replace NOUNs with cat and dog and similar for VERB and ADJ Edited October 22, 2013 by Barand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ch0cu3r Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 Add the formatting when you replace the NOUN, VERB, or ADJECTIVE placeholders $newSentArray[$counter] = '<b>'.$nounArray[$nounCounter].'</b>'; $newSentArray[$counter] = '<i>'.$verbArray[$verbCounter].'</i>'; $newSentArray[$counter] = '<u>'.$adjArray[$adjCounter].'</u>'; Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
