email or URL link...?

[NoDoze]

I have emails and URLs store in a mysql database, but when I call the info up on a php page, they don't show up as a link. How do I get them to be links instead of just written out as text?

 

Thanks!

[scarface83]

<?php "<a href=>", $linkfrom db, "Contact me</a>" ?>

 

[NoDoze]

cool! thanks!

[NoDoze]

Sorry, I thought this was what I was looking for, and it looked correct at first, but after thinking more about it, this is incorrect. Let me provide an example of what I'm asking.

 

I have this paragraph being submited by form into a mysql database as "section1":

"If you are interested in applying to this position, please send to firstnamelastname@domain.com or visit http://www.domain.com for more information"

 

Then when this info is called up onto a html page via, example:

<td width='682' align='left' class='table-header'>$section1<br><br></td>

 

On the html page the email address and url show up as text and not links.

 

How do I get the email address and url to show up as links?

 

The above suggestion is if ONLY the URL or email is stored in the DB, and will be on the html page as a link. But in the case I need, I have the urls in the middle of text.

 

Thanks again.

You could try:

 

<?php

$value = 'blah@blah.com';
$check = stripos($value, '@');

if ($check == true)
{
echo ("<a href=\"mailto:$value\">$value</a>");
} else
if ($check == false)
{
echo ("<a href=\"$value\">$value</a>");
}

?>

 

Hope it helps,

Hmmm....interesting. That would ork well if it was the same email address and web link.

 

But in this case the URLs and email addresses are different from section to section.

[chocopi]

Well if you replace $value with your sql statement it should work fine

[Dragen]

You'd probably want to be accurate than that. What if they happen to type in '@' somewhere in the string?

[Dragen]

hey, I've been really bored so I just wrote you a check method for emails and urls.

If the url doesn't contain http:// then it adds it in, because many people forget it, which would cause the page to open incorrectly.

 

<?php
$string = 'fghfg gvfhfghm www.mydomain.co.uk gmje7gfjk 654hjk me@mydomain.co.uk hgoi  gnmguyhb9 o http://www.mydomain.co.uk hgf';

$ex = explode(' ', $string);

foreach($ex as $key => $value){
if(ereg("^[^@]{1,64}@[^@]{1,255}$", $value)){
	$value = str_replace($value, '<a href="mailto:' . $value . '">' . $value . '</a>', $value);
}elseif(ereg('^((http|https)://)?(((www\.)?[^ ]+\.([com|org|net|edu|gov|us]|[co\.uk]))|([0-9]+\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+))([^ ]+)?$', $value)){
		if(preg_match('(http|https)', $value)){
			$value = str_replace($value, '<a href="' . $value . '" target="_blank">' . $value . '</a>', $value);
		}else{
			$value = str_replace($value, '<a href="http://' . $value . '" target="_blank">' . $value . '</a>', $value);
		}
}
$text[] = $value;
}
$string = implode(" ", $text);

echo $string;
?>

I've tested it and it works. Just pass everything through it as $string and it gets outputted back as $string for the echo.

[NoDoze]

OMG! Thank you! This is AWESOME!

 

...but how would I impliment it?

 

Currently a form inserts text into the database, ex:

sec1 on the form = sec1 into the database = then is pulled from the database by $sec1

 

How would I route this or include the code you provided?

 

Would I just substitute line #2 to be:

$string = $sect1

 

then just dump the code you provided where the text is to appear?

 

[Dragen]

This should work. Just replace all instances of $string with $sect1 (and remove the line which set what $string was as it's not needed)

<?php
$ex = explode(' ', $sect1);

foreach($ex as $key => $value){
if(ereg("^[^@]{1,64}@[^@]{1,255}$", $value)){
	$value = str_replace($value, '<a href="mailto:' . $value . '">' . $value . '</a>', $value);
}elseif(ereg('^((http|https)://)?(((www\.)?[^ ]+\.([com|org|net|edu|gov|us]|[co\.uk]))|([0-9]+\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+))([^ ]+)?$', $value)){
		if(preg_match('(http|https)', $value)){
			$value = str_replace($value, '<a href="' . $value . '" target="_blank">' . $value . '</a>', $value);
		}else{
			$value = str_replace($value, '<a href="http://' . $value . '" target="_blank">' . $value . '</a>', $value);
		}
}
$text[] = $value;
}
$sect1 = implode(" ", $text);

echo $sect1;
?>

[NoDoze]

Had to tweak it ever so slightly to work on the page but IT WORKED LIKE A DREAM!

 

AWESOME! PLEANTY THANKS!

[Dragen]

glad I could help

[NoDoze]

Ok, thanks for the above help....but now I was thinking....an extension from that...

 

Here is my code for this one:

<?
include 'config.php';
include 'opendb.php';
?>
<?

$query="SELECT * ,DATE_FORMAT(indate, '%b %d %Y') AS findate FROM jobs ORDER BY indate DESC";

if(isset($_GET['sortby'])){

$query .= " ORDER BY '" . $_GET['sortby'] . "'";
}

$result=mysql_query($query);

mysql_close();

$num=mysql_numrows($result);
$i=0;
while ($i < $num) {
$id=mysql_result($result,$i,"id");
$findate=mysql_result($result,$i,"findate");
$title=mysql_result($result,$i,"title");
$sec1h=mysql_result($result,$i,"sec1h");
$sec1t=mysql_result($result,$i,"sec1t");
$sec2h=mysql_result($result,$i,"sec2h");
$sec2t=mysql_result($result,$i,"sec2t");
$sec3h=mysql_result($result,$i,"sec3h");
$sec3t=mysql_result($result,$i,"sec3t");
$sec4h=mysql_result($result,$i,"sec4h");
$sec4t=mysql_result($result,$i,"sec4t");


$ex = explode(' ', $sec4t);

foreach($ex as $key => $value){
if(ereg("^[^@]{1,64}@[^@]{1,255}$", $value)){
	$value = str_replace($value, '<a href="mailto:' . $value . '">' . $value . '</a>', $value);
}elseif(ereg('^((http|https)://)?(((www\.)?[^ ]+\.([com|org|net|edu|gov|us]|[co\.uk]))|([0-9]+\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+))([^ ]+)?$', $value)){
		if(preg_match('(http|https)', $value)){
			$value = str_replace($value, '<a href="' . $value . '" target="_blank">' . $value . '</a>', $value);
		}else{
			$value = str_replace($value, '<a href="http://' . $value . '" target="_blank">' . $value . '</a>', $value);
		}
}
$text[] = $value;
}
$sec4t = implode(" ", $text);


print "<tr>";
print "<td width='450' colspan='2' align='left'><hr></td>";
print "</tr>";
print "<tr>";
print "<td width='682' align='left' class='table-header'>$title<br><br></td><td width='120' align='left'>$findate</td>";

print "<tr>";
print "<td colspan='2' align='left'><b>$sec2h</b><br>$sec2t<br><br></td>";
print "</tr>";
print "<tr>";
print "<td colspan='2' align='left'><b>$sec3h</b><br>$sec3t<br><br></td>";
print "</tr>";
print "<tr>";
print "<td colspan='2' align='left'><b>$sec4h</b><br>$sec4t<br><br></td>";
print "</tr>";





++$i;
}




?>
<?php
include 'closedb.php';
?> 

 

As you can see I have multiple sections, in a loop to sort by column headers... though I need the link code you provided to scan through each section for urls and emails. As you can probably guess, it works fine for one section, but if I add your code multiple times for each section...it loops the first section over and over. How can I amend or add your code so that it scans every section for urls and emails?

 

Thanks again!

Opps...when I change the code to what you have above, the headers of the sections get looped...

didn't work. didn't show anything.

 

I don't get it cause the code looks solid...

 

Thanks for the help.

[Dragen]

it's probably a problem with your sql query then. You've not no error checking for it..

have a go at with this.. I've added in error checks to the code:

<?php
include 'config.php';
include 'opendb.php';

$query = "SELECT * ,DATE_FORMAT(indate, '%b %d %Y') AS findate FROM jobs ORDER BY indate DESC";

Sorry to report... no go.

It's definately the code though...

It shows the html portion of the page, but the php stuff is blank...as it did previously.

thanks for the help...this is definately over my head...the code looks good to me, I can't understand why it wouldn't work...

if you still get nothing, check the html source to see if the

			print "<tr>";
			print "<td colspan='2' align='left'><b>" . $value . "</b><br>" . $vsecst[$a] . "<br><br></td>";
			print "</tr>";

section is actually being echoed, but for some reason the variables don't have values, or something.

[NoDoze]

No go again...but got wierd results...

 

nothing showed except the headers of each section...8 times in a row...

...so...section 1 header listed 8 times in a row, then section 2 header showed 8 times in a row, ect, ect...
