Trouble Extracting Email Address From Text File
I'm trying to put together a script that will read an email box set up for newsletter bounces and remove the bad addresses. There's an old script I've worked with that looks for --- Permanant fatal errro ---, but not all the bounced emails have that line included (3 out of about 700 do). I need to find the bad address, then delete that address out of the database. I've got the deleting out of database down, but am not sure how to find any email address & delete it.

PHP4 : Extract Text From HTML File
I would like to extract the text in an HTML file For the moment, I'm trying to get all text between <tdand </td>. I used a regular expression because i don't know the "format between <tdand </td> It can be : <tdtext1 </td> or <td> text1 </td> or anything else eregi("<td(.*)>(.*)(</td>?)",$text,$regtext); The problem is that, if I have <tdtext</td> <td>text2</td> regtext will return text</td><td>text2. How can I change the expression so that it stops at the first occurence of </td>?
Php Script To Filter A Text File And Extract Lines Starting With Keyword?
For a class, students are going to run an experiment on line. Each time a subject runs, his/her data is appended to one giant text file. Their own data set will be just one line starting with the keyword they gave as identification. The faculty does not want the students to be able to download and see the giant data file. He wants the students to only download and see the data that starts with their own identification tag. in unix, filtering a file to keep only the line starting with code MCB would look something like tail -f your_file_name | grep MCB from what I read. Given the concerns the faculty has for protecting the database, what do I need to look into to write a php script that would access the data file, but only show a web page with the data corresponding to the students identification code?

Best Way To Extract Text From Website
I am trying to extract the text from about 1500 pages so I can dump the info into a database, but I would like to be able to keep the <br> and formatting around the text, but strip out all of the rest of the pages code.
Extract Only Plain Text From A Page
Basically, what I am trying to do is write some PHP code that will automatically take text from any web page and eliminate all the HTML, CSS, and JS codes and formatting, leaving only the plain text from the page. I got my code started, but I have hit a snag with javascript and css codes. This is what I have so far: <?php $geturl = $_GET["url"]; ob_start(); include($geturl); $page = ob_get_contents(); ob_end_clean(); $output = ereg_replace('<script.*.</script>', ' ', $page); $output2 = ereg_replace('<style.*.</style>', ' ', $output); $plaintext = strip_tags($output2); echo $plaintext; ?> The strip_tags function automatically removes all html tags, but it doesn't do anything to javascript and css because html code is not provided between the beginning and end tags, whereas javascript and css codes are both contained within two separate tags, like this for more clarification: html: <div name="htmltag">Keep this text here</div> javascript: <script>function somejs() {remove all this code}</script> As you can see, the text between the div tags should stay, but the js between the script tags should be removed because it is code. I then tried the ereg_replace function to get rid of js and css codes, but there is a problem when there is more than 1 piece of js or css code. The wildcard value (.*.) skips over any ending script or style tags until it reaches the last ending tag, therefore deleting all the text between the two pieces of code. Example: <SCRIPT>function somejs() {remove all this code}</script> //removes all text and code from beginning here KEEP ALL THIS TEXT HERE <script>function somejs() {remove all this code}</SCRIPT> //to end here Now finally down to the question, is there any way to only remove the js and css code between the beginning tag and the immediate next ending tag? Or is there any other way to get rid of the javascript and css codes?

Q: Extract Only Text Lines Visible In Webbrowser?
I need to web query for further processing, f.ex http://moneycentral.msn.com/investo...YMBOL=F,MSFT,DE I use <?php $MSN="http://moneycentral.msn.com/investor/external/excel/quotes.asp?SYMBOL="; $QSymbols="F,MSFT,DE"; $QStr="$MSN"."$QSymbols"; $lines = file ($QStr); ?> However, the relevant information is only 3 lines on the webpage, but more than 1000 lines in $lines, so it is slow and tedious to work with.

Getting Address From Email
How do you get the text between two characters, such as < and >? For example, you have the From: line in an email "Their Name <name@somewhere.com>", how would you get just the address part from it? I guess the preg thing is used here, but I don't understand it at all.
Validating Email Address
ok, I have developed a PHP script which sends a user there password, kinda a forgot password type thing. Just one thing i really cant work out. I need to validate the email address to ensure it is URL rather than just anyold email address, ie. it must contain mydomain.com at the end of it. so essentially all i need to do is grab the text from the email address field, trim the contents before that '@' and store this into a variable. then an if loop, if the variable = 'mydomain.com' then execute the script, else diaply an error message How would I go about doing this?
Email Address Verification
I am writing a great mailing list program that I will distribute for free that comes with email addresses, tracks what was sent to who, how many times, handles campaigns, etc. What I want to do is before a message is sent, the email address is pulled out of mySQL, verified that it is real by looking for the address on the internet, sending the message, and then recording stats in the mySQL DB. I have everything done except for the verification (real).
Verifying An Email Address
I'd like to check (for security purposes) that an email address entered in a text input is valid (ie it contains at least one. which must be after the @ and contains no semi-colons). How can I do this in PHP? I figured it can be done with Regular Expressions but they're not very well-documented in my PHP book.

Sender's Email Address
I have a site on GoDaddy and have made a contact form using php/html. It's working great, however the customer's email address shows up in the body and the "from address" is some automatic address generated in the process. How can I have the customer's email address be the from address when receiving their request? Here is the code from the 2 pages involved. Code:
Valid Email Address Checking
Hey there. I need to check if a given email address is formatted correctly. I picked up this line somewhere ereg("^[_a-z0-9-]+(.[_a-z0-9-]+)*@[a-z0-9-]+(.[a-z0-9-]+)*$", $email) and it works, mostly. The big problem is that it allows addresses without a suffix. For instance, it allows "jaeger@hotmail", without the ".com". (This isn't my address.) I tried other invalid forms, and it caught them. I figured someone would already have a ereg string which works, so I won't bother trying to figure it out.
Parse A String With An Email Address
I need to parse a string with an embedded email address. The string always has the format NAME (name@domain) SOMETEXT. What I need to get is the email address as name@domain. I came up with this (I know it's broken, but it's a first start): <?php function ParseTicketEmail($ticket) { global $TicketEmail; for ($i=0; $i< strlen($ticket); $i++){ //we need to pass everything between ( and ) to $TicketEmail nothing else do { $ticket[$i] = $discarded; } while ($ticket[$i] != '('); while ($ticket[$i] != ')'){ $TicketEmail = $TicketEmail . $ticket[$i]; } } return $TicketEmail; } $ticket = "hello (world@world.com) bla"; print "$TicketEmail"; print "$discarded"; ?> But that doesn't return anything for either $TicketEmail or $discarded. So: a: why doesn't it return anything for either string? (It's too early in the morning here) b: does anyone have such a function anywhere for me to check out for how to do it?
Remove Last Part Of Email Address

Strip Email Address From Field?
I'm looking for a routine than can find any valid email address in a field and replace it with text. For example if the field was filled with "My email address is foo@foobar.com and I'm ugly" then the routine would change the text to: "My email address is newtext and I'm ugly" Any ideas on how to accomplish this?
Preg_match / Valid Email Address
Right now, I am doing this: function sys_is_valid_email ($s) { if (preg_match ("/^.+@.+..+$/", $s)) { return 1; } else { return 0; } } It works great, but it doesn't allow a number at the beginning. For example 2cool@forme.jom can not be entered 1953@forme.jom can not be entered but, cool2@forme.jom can be entered d1953@forme.jom can be entered
How To Use URL Variable To Decide Which Email Address To Use
I have a list of committee members on my classic car site with their email addresses for people to write questions to them. But to avoid spam I would like to have just a button that says "email" and when the vistor pushes that a variable is passed into the URL. I then want a standard form to use that specific variable to decide which email address to use from a list. eg I want a list of email address numbered 1 to 30 held in a file out of view of the visitors to the site. When the form page is loaded it will pick up that variable to decide which address from the list is to be used.
Preg_match_all Pattern For Email Address
I'm trying to flag and mask emails from a text string. I found this on Zend but cannot get it to work. It is supposed to create an array of email addresses but I think there is something wrong in the 'preg_match_all' call for the pattern. I cannot figure out if this pattern is even correct. function get_emails ($str) { $emails = array(); preg_match_all("/bw+@w+[.w+]+b/", $str, $output); foreach($output[0] as $email) array_push ($emails, strtolower ($email)); if (count ($emails) >= 1) return $emails; else return false; } # Here is how to use it. # Sample string containing email addresses; $str = "test test@... ha ha heHe@... bla bla bla@..."; # Get the emails on arrays; $emails = get_emails ($str); # Print that arrays; print_r ($emails);
Secure Email Address Function
I am using the following email security script on many of my applications and I have just received an email today where someone told me that it doesn't work on about 80% of his emails. It doesn't work for domains that use .info and some other domain extensions. How can I fix this. This is urgent as I am using this on contact forms, submission forms, etc. PHP Code:
Preg_match To Block Email Address(es)
I have found the below code I change it to *.EXT instead of the ending of the email address for example *.com Now if someone had abc.EXT@my-domain.co.uk would the below code echo the message or would it let it pass and only block abc@my-domain.ext ? Also does anyone know if it is case sensitive ? Finally how would I have to to check for .EXT and .EXT1 etc..., would I need to repeat the code or can I have it all within the same code, if so how ? Code:
How To Exclude A Specific Email Address
I wish to exclude a specific email address when one sends an ecard from my site. How does one exlude this email address but allow all others to continue on their merry way? Code currently used: function validEmail($address) { if (eregi("^[a-z0-9]([._-]?[a-z0-9])*@[a-z0-9]([.-]?[a-z0-9])*.[a-z]{2,}$", $address)) return true; else return false;}
Verifying The Existence Of An Email Address
if (preg_match("/^[a-zA-Z_]+(w+)*((-w+)|(.w+))*@w+((.|-)w+)*.w+$/i",$Email)){ $messages['ValidEmail'] = "* Your email address is valid, Your Registered! ";} else { $flag = "1"; $messages['InvalidEmail'] = "* Your email address is not valid, please re-enter your email address."; I tought the above would work but apparently it only checks the an email address has all its attributes (******@***.***) it doesn't go check to see if the email is in existence.. what do i need to do to check the email existence?
Change From Address In Email Sent From Php Script
I have a strange problem that I'm not sure how to solve. I have a web form that collects name, email and message from users of my website. This info is posted to a php script which then emails the info to our email address. The problem is, the from address never gets changed from webmaster@ourdomain.com. I haven't specified this address in the script at all and am adding extra headers to try and change the from address to the email addy specified by the user.. Code:
Error Handler With Email Address Defined Elsewhere ?

Preg_match Problems For Email Address Validation
I've been working on some email validation code cause I couldn't find anything very accurate on the web to do this (the php.net stuff is junk <sorry>)I was wondering 2 things: 1. If anyone would find this useful .. feel free to "borrow" it ... 2. If anyone could be bothered .. could they look over this and give me any feedback on whether it seems accurate .. or if there are any glaring holes in the code .. I know there are a few holes in it like not being able to detect double dots ".." in the address so if anyone has any ideas around this flaw please let me know. Code:
Checking If Email Address Is Live And Real?
There's all kinds of ways to validate an email address to make sure it's well formed and whatnot, but what about checking to see if it's a valid e-mail account? Like how you can use checkdnsrr() to check to see if a URL is valid. I know finger used to be used at one time, no? But server block finger requests, and I'm not sure many e-mail accounts out there are even fingerable type accounts anyway.
Forward Email, Change Sender Address
Is there anyway I can set up a personal 'remailer' type of thing on my domain ? I can not email a friend at his workplace because his company have put a 'block' on emails from my work address (the companies we work for are considered rivals) - I am after a way to 'bounce' or forward an email, so my originating address isn't shown. I have tried email forwarding (in CPanel) using addresses set up in my domain but when they forward, the original sender is shown, therefore the block applies. I have also tried using Bigfoot but again, the original sender is shown. Is there any way, using PHP or otherwise, that I could somehow receive a message sent to an address in my domain, and forward it on with a different "from" address ? (There would only be 1 specified address that I would want to forward on, to prevent abuse!) i.e. from xxxx@company1.com => xxxx@mydomain.com, this then forwards the original mail but from xxxx@mydomain.com => xxxx@company2.com Unfortunately webmail isn't an option as we don't have web access at work, and it has to be sent through the work Email system, Outlook.
Script Hide Email Address From Spambots?
Below is (a part of) a script that I am using on my web site. In order to guard against "spambots" I am including my email address in the "email_address.inc.php" require file. I have the "conf" directory password protected. A "spambot" crawler can't get to it from a direct call (I don't think) because the directory is password protected. The script below will call the "email_address.inc.php" file just fine from the password protected directory. The "Submit" button has to be activated and the input in the "$FirstName" and the "$LastName" input boxes has to be in the right format before the "email_address.inc.php" file will be called (using the code in the script). My question is this: Does anybody see how a "spambot" could get into my "email_address.inc.php" file the way I have the code written below? PHP Code:
Hiding Email Address From Mail 'To' Column...

Inserting Different Email Address Into Feedback Form
I have a website which contains "profiles" for around 200 small hostels and tour companies in South America. each profile has a feedback form inserted into it using SSI which allows backpackers to send emails direct to the hostel/company. When the submit button is pressed, it executes a PHP script (which I got off thesitewizard.com) to mail the form back direct to the company. Whilst the actual feedback form itself is one file, inserted into each profile, the PHP that executes is separate for each company - the only reason is because the email address differs for each company. My main aim is to have the bulk of the PHP script as one file and somehow include the email address into the PHP script either using somekind of include() from a separate file or otherwise taking it as a variable in the profile page itself. As I'm rubbish with PHP, I trawled the net and read through about a dozen tutorials regarding PHP include, but the script fails to execute when I do this. The code I am using is: <?php include("file.php"); ?>. The include function definately works as I have tried creating a blank php file with just <?php include("file.php"); ?> (where file.php is the FULL php script) in it and it executes perfectly. However, When I divide the script in two and put the first half in the document and follow it with <?php include("file.php"); ?> eg... <? $mailto = "info@email.com"; <?php include("file.php"); ?> I get an error message stating: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '<' obviously because it can't handle the <? before the php include. Is there a way in which you can insert plain text (ie an email address perhaps from a text file) into a PHP script?
Max. Size Of Email Address List With Mailto: ?
I'm experiencing problems with a large Bcc: email address list. I can't use PHP mail() right now, and I'm not sure I'll be able to in the future, so I'm trying to make my code work with HTML mailto:. I'm finding that I can generate an email message in MS Outlook IF my Bcc: list is about 90 emails long. Anything longer than that, and the email will not generate, and I get no error message. I'm not sure if there is a max. number of email addresses, or a max. number of characters. I can MANUALLY cut and paste a list of 300+ email addresses into the Bcc: field in the email message, but I need to generate this email message via code. My code looks something like this: ">Generate Email with HTML mailto: $emailBCCList = 'name1@domain.com,name2@domain.com,name3@domain.com,etc.' I'll need to send out a single email that has approx. 300 or more Bcc: email addresses as part of a large invitation (this is NOT spam; these individuals have asked to be invited).
