cobusbo Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 Hi I have a column in my database showing Banned words. What im trying to do is to recall the list of bad words from my database and if some of them is going to be displayed they should replace it with :-x well I made the `$bwords` to recall the info from the database. Here is the snippet // the offset of the list, based on current page $offset = ($currentpage - 1) * $rowsperpage; // get the info from the db $sql = "SELECT StringyChat_time, StringyChat_name, StringyChat_message FROM StringyChat LIMIT $offset, $rowsperpage"; $bwords = "SELECT word FROM StringyChat_WordBan"; $result = mysql_query($sql, $conn) or trigger_error("SQL", E_USER_ERROR); $test = mysql_query($bwords, $conn) or trigger_error("SQL", E_USER_ERROR); //$pmsg = ($list['StringyChat_message'] == $bwords) ? ":-x" : $list['String//yChat_message']; // while there are rows to be fetched... //while ($list = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) while ($list = mysql_fetch_assoc($result, $test)) //while (($pmsg = $list['StringyChat_message'] == $bwords) ? ":-x" : $list['StringyChat_message']) { // echo data //echo ($pmsg = ($list['StringyChat_message'] == $bwords) ? ":-x" : $list['StringyChat_message']) echo '<span style="color:#828282">' . '(' . date( 'D H:i:s', $list['StringyChat_time'] ) . ') ' . '</span>' . '<b>' . if($list['StringyChat_message'] == $test) ? ":-x" : $list['StringyChat_message'] . '</b>' . ' : ' . $pmsg . '<br />' } // end while and here is the full code <?php // database connection info $conn = mysql_connect('...','...','...') or trigger_error("SQL", E_USER_ERROR); $db = mysql_select_db('...',$conn) or trigger_error("SQL", E_USER_ERROR); // find out how many rows are in the table $sql = "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM StringyChat"; $result = mysql_query($sql, $conn) or trigger_error("SQL", E_USER_ERROR); $r = mysql_fetch_row($result); $numrows = $r[0]; // number of rows to show per page $rowsperpage = 5; // find out total pages $totalpages = ceil($numrows / $rowsperpage); // get the current page or set a default if (isset($_GET['currentpage']) && is_numeric($_GET['currentpage'])) { // cast var as int $currentpage = (int) $_GET['currentpage']; } else { // default page num $currentpage = 1; } // end if // if current page is greater than total pages... if ($currentpage > $totalpages) { // set current page to last page $currentpage = $totalpages; } // end if // if current page is less than first page... if ($currentpage < 1) { // set current page to first page $currentpage = 1; } // end if // the offset of the list, based on current page $offset = ($currentpage - 1) * $rowsperpage; // get the info from the db $sql = "SELECT StringyChat_time, StringyChat_name, StringyChat_message FROM StringyChat LIMIT $offset, $rowsperpage"; $bwords = "SELECT word FROM StringyChat_WordBan"; $result = mysql_query($sql, $conn) or trigger_error("SQL", E_USER_ERROR); $test = mysql_query($bwords, $conn) or trigger_error("SQL", E_USER_ERROR); $pmsg = ($list['StringyChat_message'] == $bwords) ?

mac_gyver Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 the syntax error is because your source code contains an error. you are using the Ternary operator on the line where the error is being reported. the Ternary operator doesn't use an if(). next, the best, general purpose method to use to highlight/change words in text, based on database entries would be - 1) get a unique list of words from all the content you are going to display on the page. this would require that you retrieve the rows from your pagination query. if you store these rows into an array, you can simply loop over this array later when displaying the information. as you are retrieving the rows from the pagination query, split them on the white-space/word boundaries and add all the words to an array. then use array_unique() to reduce this array to just the unique list of words. 2) using the unique list of words from step #1, run a query against your banned word table to get just the entries from that table that are found in the unique list of words from the content. you can implode the unique list of words and use WHERE word IN('word1','word2','word3', ...) comparison in the query. 3) retrieve the list of matching bad words into an array, then when you have the full list, implode that array using a | character. this makes a regular expression OR'ed pattern of all the found bad words. 4) as you loop through the content (the first array from step #1) to display it, you can use a preg_replace() statement, with the regular expression pattern from step #3, to find and replace any bad words with the replacement string.
