[SOLVED] replace

[shage]

$refcode=$_GET['refcode'];

$sitelink=str_replace("#refcode#",$refcode,$sitelink);

<link>'.$site_link.'</link>

 

Im trying to pull refcode from url and have it replace all instance of #refcode# on page, for some reason its not doing that.

[soycharliente]

$sitelink and $site_link?

[mosi]

well in your example you set $sitelink then when you refer to it as $site_link. That might just be a typo for this post, but might not be. I know I've spent ages before because of something like that :/

 

I use the str_replace for someone similar for some of my code

 

/*
$row2["c_url2"] is a result from a mysql query
example output is "http://example.com/archive/#yyyy#"
where I want "http://example.com/archive/2007" 
*/

$row2["c_url2"] = str_replace("#yyyy#",date('Y'),$row2["c_url2"]);

echo $row2["c_url2"];

 

What errors are you getting from your code?

 

[shage]

$sitelink=str_replace("#refcode#",$refcode,$sitelink,$site_link)

 

what this is telling is that the sitelink is a text box that is in mysql which it pulls perfect, just doenst replace the refcode in the url with the username. The site_link is another link such as % of payout, it will random that this link which is up top of the page might be 30% revshare and the bottom links might be set to be 60% refshare, is why both have that name

hope that makes sense

The 4th parameter in str_replace is how many times to do the replacement.

Thats the code for the file, i cant figure out why it dont replace all #refcode#

[shage]

see i knew it was not just me

[no_one]

Maybe echo/print out all the vars used in the str_replace before using them, just to make sure they even contain what you'd expect them to. Is error reporting on? (Maybe you have one and don't know it).

Also, the 4th parameter in str_replace is for a var to be passed by reference and will hold the "count" of how many times the search string was found and replaced. You're not using it in your code, but so you know for future reference.

Otherwise, I don't see a problem in the way str_replace is being used.

i echoed and nothing shows up hmmm

[shage]

found it thank you!!!!
