Extractng Text From Hyperlink
I need to extract the text within anchor tags for use in building another hyperlink. In other words, if I have something like this:
<a href="http://www.something.php?id=12">Blah blah blah</a>
I need to get the 'Blah blah blah' part. I'm thinking that a regular expression is the way to go, but I'm having difficulty seeing how to deal with the stuff in the href attribute.

Hyperlink In Text Area
I have a basic CMS system and the client would like to insert some links in the text area. What would you recommend the best way to do this in a textarea box? There may be several hyperlinks in 1 textarea and some may have none at all. I assume this would be some sort of javascript code or is there an easier way.
Conditional Email Text To Hyperlink
I am trying to write a content management section for a web site. I have managed so far to use htmlarea to give users a basic, but user friendly interface by which to edit the page content. The user can add emails by symply typing john@example.com - IE automatically converts this to a hyperlink. The trouble is sometimes the users use plain text. I have been using the following line to convert plain text to a hyperlink: $pagetext=ereg_replace('[A-Za-z0-9_]([-._]?[A-Za-z0-9])*@[A-Za-z0-9]([-.]?[A-Za-z0-9])*.[A-Za-z]+', '<a href="mailto: ?subject=Email%20from%20web%20site"> </a> ', $pagetext); This works well - BUT it completely screws up any existing hyperlinks. Is there a way to convert the plain text email address in to a hyperlink only if it is NOT part of a hyperlink. Basically I need some way of checking * If it's plain text > convert to a hyperlink * If it's already an email hyperlink leave it alone. I have tried looking up and testing everything I can think of - but am finally asking around before I go mad.

HyperLink Validatation
I am wondering what approach I could used to validate links. I am building a simple portal type index and I would like to be able to check for broken links weekly. The Database already has a field for link status. I would like to create a script that checks for broken links and changes the status so a human can follow up on it. I am also wondering about how one would “limit” this program. I mean I don’t care if it takes 2 hours just as long as it does run rampant and cause issues with my host. Any thoughts…? I am not looking for a complete solution just a point in the right direction.

Hyperlink With Parameters
Is this how you print a hyperlink passing parameter action , id, qty to another php script? And printing HTML inside php? I giving three sample code in my program. I use quotation around HTML TAG and code so can read by php print command. 1. Hyperlink with parameter to pass print "<a href = "cart.php?action=Add&id=" . $column['SKU'] . "&qty=1">Add Item</a></font></td></tr>"; 2. Printing HTML tag with PHP print command print "<TR><TH>Title</TH><Price</TH><TH>Description</TH><TH>Add Item</TD></TR>"; 3. Here I try to print a drop down list with Javascript onChange event. Notice that I use concatenation between HTML TAG and PHP code. I use to respesent quoatation mark. // print the drop down that will update the qty instantly using Javascript onChange event // the following syntax will look like this in regular HTML code // <select name = "$column['SKU']" onChange = "upDateQty(this)"><option Selected>i</option></select> print "<tr width = 15% height = 25><td width = 15% height = 25><font face = verdana size = 1 color = black>"; print "<select name = "" . $column['SKU'] . ""onChange = "updateQty(this)""; for ($i = 0; $i <= 20; $i++) { print "<option"; if ($rows['QTY'] == $i) { print "SELECTED"; } print ">" . $i . "</option>"; } print "</select></font></td>";

If so How.
Hyperlink And Passing Of Variables.
I know three ways to pass variables form one page to another. The first one is to declare and set session variable. In this case if one goes to another page (by clicking on hyperlink or pressing a button) value of a session variable will be automatically seen on the new page. The second way is to set hidden variables in the form and go to new page by execution of this form (press a button or enter), and the last way, which I know, is in the declaration of hyperlink after name of a new page put after "?" names and values of variables. Sometimes I need to use the third way. However I do not like that after new page is loaded in the address line of browser one can see all variables (names and values). Can one avoid this problem?

Need A Script To Tell Me Where A Hyperlink Originated
Not sure if this is a php or an html question but I'll post it anyway. I have multiple thumbnail images on my catalogue page catalogue.php and they are all hyperlinked to a single page called desc.php that will give an enhanced description of the product selected. I want the desc.php page to print the contents of a text file named ?.txt based on which image was clicked on in my catalogue page. example: if I click on 1.jpg in my catalogue then I want the file 1.txt to be selected and printed on my description page. I know how to print the contents of a textfile and I know how to disect the strings of the filenames so that I can associate 1.txt with 1.jpg. What I dont know is how to retrieve the name of the image file that was clicked on the catalogue page within my script for the desc.php page If I didn't use a hyperlink image and used a form submit button instead on my catalogue page then of course I could use something like: $filename = $_POST['filename'] Hope you understood all of that.

Passing Variables With Hyperlink
I've managed to get a MySQL database up and running and can display the data with PHP to a web page. What I'd really like to do is click on a field on the web page to display another page based on that value. As an example using a membership database, I display an index of member no and member name to a web page. I'd like the member no to be a link that when clicked on would allow me to display the entire member record. I just need to know how to pass the variable from the hyperlink to a php script to do the query.
Hyperlink To An Excel File
I have a hyperlink to an Excel spreadsheet but I'm having a bit of trouble with it. My first problem was that IE6 integrates Excel into the IE window when you click an Excel link. I overcame that by having a dummy Excel file run that had VBA code to launch the real application in a new window. That's probably too much info, but there it is. Moving on. My problem is the users will be opening up this VBA Excel application of mine from our Intranet. When they click on the link, the dummy Excel file runs, that in turn launches the real application and all is well and good. Except for one thing. When the user is done or goes back to the IE Intranet window where they launched the application, this is the error that is displayed: The page cannot be displayed: The page you are looking for is currently unavailable. The Web site might be experiencing technical difficulties, or you may need to adjust your browser settings. My two solutions were to either have the link do two things simulatenously. You would click on the app link and it would run the application and it would also reload the Intranet home page. My second solution was to have them click the link and then it would go back to the previous page they were on all in the same click procedure/event/whatever. Code:
Basic Hyperlink Query
I have a php series of scripts/programs/files which provide a simple calendar/scheduler program. When either an email or web address/hyperlink are displayed within the output, they seem to have the browser default link colours and underline. Altho the output table/content is within a div in the web page, I seem to be unable to apply CSS styles to the div contents in this case. I have even tried !important to no avail. There does not seem to be any HTML tags in the PHP controlling them. Is it possible for anyone to help me to apply CSS styles to these links without you being able see the PHP etc? Ignore this if I am asking for the impossible/impractical.

Click A Hyperlink To Query MYSQL W/PHP - How?
Like so many questions this involves MYSQL and the PHP (or Perl) layer. I'm going to have html in text fields and there's going to be what normally would be an internal link to another place in the same document. But in this case, Code: <a href="#futherdown">next title</a> is not in the html document. When a user clicks this link I want to query the DB and append/render the queried record on the I guess existing (refreshed) page. What's a strategy to make a hyperlink query via PHP?

Setting Session Variable In A Hyperlink?
My new site has 2 columns. The larger left side contains the blog. This transfers page's using $_GET and URL's. My right column will contain profiles, registering, login-ins etc. I want this to use sessions to work out what page to display. This way things can come and go on the right column without disrupting the blog side of things. The problem I am having is actually setting the session variable which this will run off. For example if I want to view someone's profile, it would typically be done in a link i.e. blog?viewprofile=John. This would disrupt the blog as you would go back to the index page. I have thought about using hidden form fields but this seem's like a lot of hard work for what i would like to achieve. Before I go off making my site a complex form is there any other way to set sessions without using the URL to trigger events?

I was thinking about using this number comnbined with a hyperlink, so the user can click it to take them to a page to edit that row.... But i have no idea how to do this, or if there is an easier way which i just do not know; or how do most people achieve what i require...

Gaining Access To How MySql Parses Text For Full Text
I want to gain access to the function or process MySql uses to parse words and phrases for Full Text searching. Here is an example. If the user inputs... Milan in history MySql will search for milan, history, and milan history. Is there a way to extract just the combination of terms MySql uses to search the db without the stop words? Stop words are automatically eliminated from the search request unless the user encloses a phrase in quotes. What I am trying to do is develop a script to highlight found search terms and phrases. I can explode a phrase into single words but if I do that the stop words would be included in the array. If there is some way of getting into the parsed words or phrases MySql Full Text actually uses to search, I can use each of those combinations as a keyword in my highlighting script. This request is about searching for the code or any code related to the questions involved.
Text Area Not Accepting Large Amounts Of Text
I have a form where teachers enter homework assignments and they are then stored in a MYSQL database and retrieved elsewhere. I have been using "get" with the form. The code is simple: <textarea name="array[assignment]" cols="60" rows="10" id="array[assignment]"></textarea> It does allow post of 100 words, etc. Stuff that teachers normally submit. What's happening is that it won't allow very large posts (over 300 words maybe? ) Not sure what the cut off is. When you press submit it won't go, or there is an error where it won't submit. Is there a limit for text fields? Since the fields scroll, I didn't think that having only 60 rows was any type of real limit, I though you could put in as much as needed. But then all of it ends up in the address bar, so there must be a limit of some sort.
Read And Display Japanese Text From Text File
I posted a question regarding reading japanese text from a text file. Well, since I solved the problem, I thought I'd post my solution for the benefit of other people with the same problem. The plan was to make a script to read and display japanese text. I will use it for making a japanese proverb script and for a japanese language study script. Method : I wrote a simple kanji text file (saved with UTF-8 encoding) I wrote a simple PHP script to display the file contents (saved with UTF-8 encoding) I specified the content-type header for the HTML page : <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"> *** All files have the same encoding. *** UTF-8 supports japanese characters. and it works! this is my PHP (and HTML) script : <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"> <title>PHP : Japanese Text File Read : Exercise 1</title> </head> <body> <?php $filename="japanese.txt"; //open file $fp = fopen($filename,'r'); //loop through each line in the file while($line=fgets($fp)) { //output current text file line print $line."<br>"; } //close file handle fclose($fp); ?> </body> </html> I know it's a very simple script, for testing purposes only. It displays the contents of the japanese text file line by line. The key was to save all files in the same encoding (I used UTF-8) and to specify the encoding / charset in the HTML header (<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">)
Append Text At End Of Existing Text On Same Line
I'm working on a part of my web site that uploads images, then writes the name of the image to a text file. The upload part works fine. The part that writes the name of the image to the text file works fine. What I'm trying to do is, after all the files have been uploaded and all of the image names have been written to the WriteTo.txt file, append a written description of the picture at the end of the picture name. In other words, after a user uploads their pictures to the server I want to direct them to a page where they can label each of the pictures using a form. PHP Code:

PHP - Using Mail() And Unicode Text - Text Gets Disturbed
I have the following problem. On a website there's a (simple) feedback form. This is used also by Polish visitors who (of course) type Polish text using special characters. However, when I receive the text in my mailbox, all special characters have been turned into mess...... For example: "wspólprace" is turned into "współprace". It seems PHP is handling the Unicode-8 strings quite well (when I 'echo' the strings on the site, I see the text correctly), until the point that it is send by using mail(). Is this a server configuration issue? Or something else? How can I get my text to remain in Unicode? I have this problem both on my testserver (Apache 1.3.28, PHP 4.3.2 on Windows XP) as on my providers server (Apache under Linux).

Text Returned From DB Gets Cutoff When Placed In A Text Field
I have a string that contains an apostrophe or a quotation mark, stored in a DB. I can retrieve the data, and display it properly (for editing) in a textarea, but when I try to put the string in a text field, it get's cut off right before the questionable character. For example: $string_in_database = "John's car." -displays correctly here <textarea><?php print $string_in_database ?></textarea> and displays this - John's car. -gets cutoff here <input type='text' value=''<?php print $string_in_database ?>' /> and displays this - John I've tried adding slashes and stripping slashes and I just can't figure out what I need to do.
