note 50923 added to function.str-replace

I got a few things to add on the subject Jesse posted about the smiley replacement. Bad HTML code can be removed with the php function strip_tags(). Further I would like to add my URL- and IMG-replace function. The problem was that it would only replace one IMG or URL node, but since the functions calls itself until there aren't IMG or URL-nodes anymore they will all be replaced. Note that the replace function is case sensitive, so for example [b] won't be replaced. Regards, Here's the code: <?php function replaceMessage($message) { $message = strip_tags($message, '<b></b><i></i><u></u><a></a><img>'); $message = str_replace ("\n", "<BR>", "$message"); // When you store the $message in a database you might get errors cause of the quotes $message = str_replace("[singleQuote]", "'", $message); $message = str_replace("[doubleQuote]", "\"", $message); $message = str_replace ("[U]", "<U>", "$message"); $message = str_replace ("[/U]", "</U>", "$message"); $message = str_replace ("[I]", "<I>", "$message"); $message = str_replace ("[/I]", "</I>", "$message"); $message = str_replace ("[B]", "<B>", "$message"); $message = str_replace ("[/B]", "</B>", "$message"); $message = replaceUrl($message); $message = replaceImg($message); return $message; } function replaceImg($message) { // Make image from [img]htp://.... [/img] if (strpos($message, "[img]")){ $begImg = strpos($message, "[img]"); $endImg = strpos($message, "[/img]"); $img = substr($message, $begImg, $endImg-$begImg+6); $link = substr($img, 5, $endImg - $begImg -5); $htmlImg = "<img src=$link border='0'>"; $message = str_replace($img, $htmlImg, $message); // searches for other [img]-nodes $message = replaceImg($message); } return $message; } function replaceUrl($message) { // Make link from [url]htp://.... [/url] or [url=http://.... ]text[/url] if (strpos($message, "[url")){ $begUrl = strpos($message, "[url"); $endUrl = strpos($message, "[/url]"); $url = substr($message, $begUrl, $endUrl-$begUrl+6); $posBracket = strpos($url, "]"); if ($posBracket != null){ if ($posBracket == 4){ // [url]http://.... [/url] $link = substr($url, 5, $endUrl - $begUrl -5); $htmlUrl = "<a href=$link target='_blank'>$link</A>"; } else { // [url=http://....]text[/url] $link = substr($url, 5, $posBracket-5); $text = substr($url, $posBracket+1, strpos($url, "[/url]") - $posBracket-1); $htmlUrl = "<a href=$link target='main'>$text</A>"; } } $message = str_replace($url, $htmlUrl, $message); // searches for other [url]-nodes $message = replaceUrl($message); } return $message; } ?> ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.str-replace.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+50923 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+50923&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+50923&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+50923&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+50923&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+50923&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+50923&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
