to: moberemk just a couple of things. The iframe was the only way I could get the "snif" (simple nice index file) to work properly (if you click the little copyright symbol in the footer you see that I indeed credited using 2 different open source applications in the construction of the site) About the forum, my guitarist has been paying for our slot on that forum for a long time, and he didn't want to create a new forum (his choice, not mine) as far as "colorless" again this was not my intention, but it's what the rest of the band agreed on. I had a couple, more graphic styled layouts, with more color but of course, being a metal band, they were still dark. But alas the bands final decision rested on this layout. The splash page (though it seems like there's no point) is actually the cover art for our upcoming CD (yes, the splash was rather 'thrown together', but it's worked as far as pre-sales of the CD). I am working on a new layout already (even though that one has only been online since mid-January) because I'm not overly happy with it. Thank you for your critique and constructive criticism, it has been a help :) [!--quoteo(post=352486:date=Mar 7 2006, 08:18 AM:name=ober)--][div class=\'quotetop\']QUOTE(ober @ Mar 7 2006, 08:18 AM) [snapback]352486[/snapback][/div][div class=\'quotemain\'][!--quotec--] Oh... the stuff these kids put on the web:[/quote] Thanks for the condescending attitude. 1.) I'm not a kid, I'm 27, so don't treat me as such. 2.) comments such as this, no matter WHAT you say afterwards make me just want to flat out ignore you, which I will do. so without further statement, I really have no desire to read what you had to say. if you hadn't have been so "oh look at this childish display" I would have been inclined to read what you had to say. thanks, have a nice day.

now, I know we're not all designers, and we're not all coders, so I'm curious as to get some input on my bands website that I developed. [a href=\"http://www.shroud-of-bereavement.com\" target=\"_blank\"]Shroud of Bereavement - Official Website[/a] forgive the dashes in the URL, I did not buy the domain name, the other guitarist had it for a while before I took over the site overhaul/development

that package may work, but I think I'll have to write my code to create an array out of a text file then parse it

another note: I'm echoing back the results as html that you can copy/paste into a text document. a few issues that I haven't figured out yet: 1.) nested terms, I can't figure out how to get the first term to not close until after the last nester term resulting in: </term> </term> 2.) I'm still stumped on moving the "See also..." text from after the page number to the end of the text in the: <name></name> tags like it should be... any help would be GREATLY appreciated

ok, forgive me for being a complete n00b with regex. until recently I haven't had to ever delve into them like this, so I'm sure that this code can be written FAR better, I'm just awful and out of practice. so, forgive my n00bness, and don't laugh too hard at me :( FYI, I'm running this application on PHP4.0.2 on Apache on my windows box (no linux box access in the office) [code] <?          $word = $_POST['word'];          $clean = nl2br($word);               $str = preg_replace('/<br \/>/', '<br>', $clean);     $strxx = preg_replace('/(\D), ([1-9][0-9][2-9][0-9])/', '$1, <y>$2<y>', $str);     $strx1 = preg_replace('/(\D), ([1-9][1-9][0-9][0-9])/', '$1, <y>$2<y>', $strxx);     $str01 = eregi_replace(",", " , ", $strx1);     $str02 = eregi_replace(" +", " ", $str01);     $str03 = preg_replace('/\-([1-9][0-9][2-9][0-9])/', '-<y>$1<y>', $str02);     $str0A = preg_replace('/\-([1-9][1-9][0-9][0-9])/', '-<y>$1<y>', $str03);     $str0B = preg_replace('/([1-9][1-9][0-9][0-9])/', '<y>$1<y>', $str0A);     $str04 = preg_replace('/([2-9][0-9][0-9][0-9])/', '<y>$1<y>', $str0B);     $str0C = preg_replace('/\–/', '-', $str04);     $str0D = preg_replace('/á/', 'a', $str0C);     $str0E = preg_replace('/\”/', '"', $str0D);     $str0F = preg_replace('/\“/', '"', $str0E);     $str0G = preg_replace('/Á/', 'A', $str0F);     $str0H = preg_replace('/ú/', 'u', $str0G);     $str0I = preg_replace('/ñ/', 'n', $str0H);     $str05 = preg_replace('/(\D) , ([0-9])/', '$1</name><page>$2', $str0I);     $str06 = preg_replace('/(\D)<br>/', '$1</name><br>', $str05);     $str07 = preg_replace('/([0-9])<br>/', '$1</page><br>', $str06);     $str08 = preg_replace('/([0-9]) , ([0-9])/', '$1</page><page>$2', $str07);     $str8A = preg_replace('/<page>([0-9]{1,4}). /', '<page>$1</page>', $str08);     $str8B = preg_replace('/<page>([0-9]{1,4})-([0-9]{1,2}). /', '<page>$1-$2</page>', $str8A);     $str09 = preg_replace('/\n/', '<name>', $str8B);     $str10 = preg_replace('/<name>([A-Z])/', '</term><name>$1', $str09);     $str11 = preg_replace('/<name>/', '<term><name>', $str10);     $str12 = preg_replace('/<br>/', '', $str11);     $strXB = preg_replace('/<y>/', '', $str12);     $str13 = preg_replace('/</', '<', $strXB);     $str14 = preg_replace('/>/', '>', $str13);     $str15 = preg_replace('/></', '><br><', $str14);     $str16 = preg_replace('/<term>/', '<br><term>', $str15);     $str17 = preg_replace('/<\/term>/', '<br></term>', $str16);     $str18 = preg_replace('/AT&T/', 'AT&T', $str17);          print_r($str18);      ?> [/code] if you are curious as to what I am thinking on any given line, just ask... <_<

any guesses? I'm dwelling in preg_replace() Hades right now maybe after I get the code written, I'll post it here, and see if anyone has ideas about clean up or better syntax

maybe I'm going about this the wrong way. I've got numerous regular expressions that are taking plain text from a form and converting it to XML. The purpose is to create a book index file from a word document. words "XML" is complete trash (as is their HTML). Maybe I'm heading the wrong direction with this, and someone has already written a utility like this. basically, I need to take a line like this: Aardvark, 100, 110-12 and convert it to this: [code] <term> <name>Aardvark</name> <page>100</page> <page>110-12</page> </term> [/code] but also I have nested terms as well that would end up appearing like this: [code] <term> <name>Chainsaw</name> <page>50</page>      <term>      <name>juggling</name>      <page>210</page>      </term> </term> [/code]
