[SOLVED] smilies with str_replace

[azisnomarsa]

Techincally I have been staring at this coe fpr about 30 mins now, but I cant get where am I wrong,, I mean, image exists and all, but output still is without images .

 

 

<?php
$omg = mysql_connect('localhost', '', '');
if (!omg)
{
die(' ' . mysql_error());
}
mysql_select_db("blogging", $omg);
$wii = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM ftw");

while($rrr = mysql_fetch_array($wii))
{
$zinja = str_replace( "", "<img src='/bildes/smile.gif'>,", $zinja );
echo "$zinja";
$amen = strip_tags($rrr['avtor']);
$buda = strip_tags($rrr['mudak']); 	
echo $amen;
echo "<br>";
echo $buda;
}
?>

where does the $zinja  variable come from? I do not see that variable any where in your code.

Well as I understood from tuts I make variable with str_replace and then I just print it.

Yes you can create a var to store what str_replace will return. But you got to pass it a source to do replacements with.

$zinja = str_replace( ":)", "<img src='/bildes/smile.gif'>,", $zinja );

Everything highlighted above is correct. Except for the highlighted variable in red. That variable must contain the raw data that contains the raw smiley symbols for str_replace to replace it.

Im going to guess that maybe it should be:

$zinja = str_replace( "", "<img src='/bildes/smile.gif'>,", $rrr['zinja'] );
