And do I put $str = smilies($str); that were the forum scripts are?

the databases name is forum so would the variable just be $forum ??

Alright well if you have AIM im me Ashtonhy And I know were the forum code is however how would I find out what the variable is?

Alright I put that up now my question is were do I put, $str = smilies($str); And how do I tell my forums to make the specified text into other smilies? Like were would I put a script at in the Forums php script file or in the db somewerE?

this is the function <?php   // defines the emoticons   $emoticonarray = array(     ‘:)’  => ’smile.gif’,     ‘:King:’  => ’king.gif’,     ‘:*’  => ‘kiss.gif’     ‘:lol:’  => ’lol.gif’,     ‘:loser:’  => ’loser.gif’,     ‘:money:’  => ‘moneybag.gif’     ‘:muscle:’  => ’muscle.gif’,     ‘:no:’  => ’no.gif’,     ‘:nono:’  => ‘nono.gif’     ‘:offwall:’  => ’offwall.gif’,     ‘:ohboy:’  => ’ohboy.gif’,     ‘:pc:’  => ‘pc.gif’     ‘:please:’  => ’please.gif’,     ‘:rofl:’  => ’rofl.gif’,     ‘:roll:’  => ‘rolleyes.gif’     // generates the search and replace arrays   foreach($emoticonarray as $emoticon => $img) {     $search[] = $emoticon;     $replace[] = ‘<img src=”/emoticons/’ . $img .                     ‘” alt=”‘ . $emoticon . ‘” />’;   }   // searches the text passed to the function   $text = str_ireplace($search, $replace, $text);   // return the value   return $text; ?> Do I need to edit anything in there? Or just put the $str = smilies($str); were I want it to show up and it will work?

OK thank you wild, Alright now that I got your code down now what do I do (when it comes to editing it for server information etc.)

Ok I fixed up the code now its, [code] <?php  // defines the emoticons  $emoticonarray = array(    ":)"  => "smile.gif",    ":King:"  => "king.gif",    ":*"  => "kiss.gif"    ":lol:"  => "lol.gif",    ":loser:"  => "loser.gif",    ":money:"  => "moneybag.gif"    ":muscle:"  => "muscle.gif",    ":no:"  => "no.gif",    ":nono:"  => "nono.gif"    ":offwall:"  => "offwall.gif",    ":ohboy:"  => "ohboy.gif",    ":pc:"  => "pc.gif"    ":please:"  => "please.gif",    ":rofl:"  => "rofl.gif",    ":roll:"  => "rolleyes.gif"    // generates the search and replace arrays  foreach($emoticonarray as $emoticon => $img) {    $search[] = $emoticon;    $replace[] = "<img src="/emoticons/" . $img .                     "" alt="" . $emoticon . "" />";  }  // searches the text passed to the function  $text = str_ireplace($search, $replace, $text);  // return the value  return $text; ?> [/code] But now im confused first is that correct and now what do I do In order to have the smiles show up on my forums. So im using the guide from http://ryanslife.net/2006/07/12/php-simple-emoticon-support/ Just to show you what im looking at can anyone help me here?

See it even turned into it on the codes!!

Alright I tried to use that site I made  Funttion and everything, But now its getting errors and is changing crazy on me, I put this in. [code]<?php   // defines the emoticons   $emoticonarray = array(     ':)'  => 'smile.gif',     ':King:'  => 'king.gif',     ':*'  => 'kiss.gif'     ':lol:'  => 'lol.gif',     ':loser:'  => 'loser.gif',     ':money:'  => 'moneybag.gif'     ':muscle:'  => 'muscle.gif',     ':no:'  => 'no.gif',     ':nono:'  => 'nono.gif'     ':offwall:'  => 'offwall.gif',     ':ohboy:'  => 'ohboy.gif',     ':pc:'  => 'pc.gif'     ':please:'  => 'please.gif',     ':rofl:'  => 'rofl.gif',     ':roll:'  => 'rolleyes.gif'   // generates the search and replace arrays   foreach($emoticonarray as $emoticon => $img) {     $search[] = $emoticon;     $replace[] = '<img src="/emoticons/' . $img . '" alt="' . $emoticon . '" />';   }   // searches the text passed to the function   $text = str_ireplace($search, $replace, $text);   // return the value   return $text;[/code] Then once I save it and view it again it turns into this [code]<?php   // defines the emoticons   $emoticonarray = array(     ':)'  => 'smile.gif',     ':King:'  => 'king.gif',     ':*'  => 'kiss.gif'     ':lol:'  => 'lol.gif',     ':loser:'  => 'loser.gif',     ':money:'  => 'moneybag.gif'     ':muscle:'  => 'muscle.gif',     ':no:'  => 'no.gif',     ':nono:'  => 'nono.gif'     ':offwall:'  => 'offwall.gif',     ':ohboy:'  => 'ohboy.gif',     ':pc:'  => 'pc.gif'     ':please:'  => 'please.gif',     ':rofl:'  => 'rofl.gif',     ':roll:'  => 'rolleyes.gif'   // generates the search and replace arrays   foreach($emoticonarray as $emoticon => $img) {     $search[] = $emoticon;     $replace[] = '<img src="/emoticons/' . $img . '" alt="' . $emoticon . '" />';   }   // searches the text passed to the function   $text = str_ireplace($search, $replace, $text);   // return the value   return $text;[/code] And its giving me this error: Parse error: parse error, unexpected ':', expecting ')' in /home/spyderw/public_html/mf/functions.php on line 4 Thats just problem 1, The guide says to " You pull the data from your database and assign it to the variable $comment. All you would have to do the replace the text-based emoticons with the images that you have set up is as follows: <?php echo emoticon($comment); ?> " Can you explain that? Please help me It would be most appreciated.

Alright I have forums, that Were independently desined meaning there not like phpbb etc. there just forums programmed in PHP. I would like to add smiles to the forums does anyone know the best way to do that?

Parse error: parse error, unexpected $ in /home/spyderw/public_html/mf/recentforum.php on line 11 [code]<?php $dbh=mysql_connect ("localhost", "spyderw_Ashton", "ashton2004596") or die ('I cannot connect to the database because: ' . mysql_error()); mysql_select_db ("spyderw_dk"); $select = mysql_query("SELECT author,newpostdate,title, FROM spyderw_forum ORDER BY `newpostdate` DESC LIMIT 3"); $total=1; while($row = mysql_fetch_array($select)) { } if (isset($get['display'])) { echo $recentforum; // even here I like echo "{$recentforum}"; ?>[/code]
