Identifying Parts Of A String
$url = /blah/elephant/spaghetti/page.php
This gives you the whole path.
But how can you identify each directory in the url individually?
ie. I want $one to equal 'blah', $two to equal 'elephant' etc.

Identifying Different Unicode/utf-8 Types Inside A Text String
I am dealing with a script that reverses a string that is in hebrew, so I can display it properly when I write that string onto an image, however sometimes the string might be half hebrew half english, so I need a way to identify what language is in the string and only reverse the hebrew parts. in technical terms the hebrew text is encoded in utf-8, and the english text will be encoded in the normal encoding for english, (anscii, latin-swedish whatever, i dont know the name of that encoding) so the simple question is how do I identify different types of encoding within a string? that way I can break up the parts that i identify as being utf-8 and reverse only those (yes I am well aware of methods to display hebrew properly in php, but when writing to an image this is another story, only method i found so far is reversing the hebew text string)

Extract Parts Of A String
I need some sort of preg_extract capacity (made up function name I wished existed). I want to match and return parts of a string based on a regexp pattern.

Here is my first attempt. $haystack='tinyint(1)' //$haystack='varchar(200)' $type=preg_split('#[a-z]*(#i',$haystack);$type=$type[1]; $length=preg_split('#([0-9]*)$#',$haystack);$length=$length[0]; print_r($type);print '<br/>' print_r($length);print '<br/>' it outputs: 1) tinyint I've stuck for changing the regexp pattern to not include the trailing ) on the first output or finding a better more efficient way of accomplishing the goal.

Editing Certain Parts Of A String
I am working on a script, and for it i need to edit certain occurances of a string within another string. Its not your basic str_replace type of thing. I will have a string like: "Hi, How are you today, are you ok?, i hope you are" Ehh, well not exactly like that haha but thats only an example. And with that i want to replace just say the second "you" I think i have it sorted out about how to get the position of only the second "you" with my own strpos function. But how when i have the pos, how would i edit only that part of the string.

Replace Part Of String In Between Two Other Parts?
I'm trying to do is an str_replace or something within only a set of other strings. What I'm doing with some text that I put into a database is added a <br> whenever the ASCI character 10 (carraige return) comes up. It's like this. $text = eregi_replace(10, "<BR>", $text); what keeps happening though, is that when I make an HTML table in the text, it adds a <br> to that too, and since it's inside the table, it just adds the newline to outside of the table or something and screws everything up. So, what I want to do is only have it replace the newline with a <br> if it isn't inside of a <table></table> string. I've been all over the PHP documentation and have yet to see something that might work.

Function For Breaking A String Up Into Tiny Parts
I've been searching high and low to find a function for breaking a string up into tiny parts. For example, I would like "hello.php" to become... h e l l o . p h p I have checked out the explode function and various other string handling functions. HOWEVER, all of the functions I've looked at require you to declare a character to trigger each breaking up point. I don't want to do that. I want it to break up every single character (not whenever there is a space, as most demos seem to do).

PCRE Regex Function To Get Parts Of A String
I am using a PCRE regex function to get parts of a string. my current pattern is: $pattern = "/<([^s]+)s+([^s]+)s+([^s]+)s*></a>/i"; and my string is: $string = '<a href="123" href="456" ></a>' This will match. The problem is that ([^s]+)s+ in the pattern is repeated. in the string it is: ([^s]+)s+([^s]+)s+ How can I change my pattern so that ([^s]+)s+ does not need to be repeated like this. As I am capturing the output, I can not use (([^s]+)s+)+ as it will only capture the last string match, not all of them.

Removing Parts Of A String Before Creating An Array?
Okay, in my database, one of the fields will contain information that looks like: p.php?o=111, p.php?o=222, i.php?o=233, i.php?o=999, p.php?o=444, g.php?o=765 And after my query, I want to create an array based on this field, but I only want the items that start with "i.php..." in the array. Not only do the numbers after the "=" sign change, but the "p.php" parts change too, so I won't know exactly what the values in this field will be. I looked into functions like eregi_replace, but it seems like I need to know what I'm replacing before it's being replaced. I also looked into making the array first and then trying functions like array_slice, array_search, and array_filter, but I'm running into the same problem.

Identifying An Image
Ive got a tracking system which tracks how many times a user clicks on an advert on my site. At the moment all the listings are set as one so when a user clicks on that advert it gets one click. However, one of the adverts is now going to contain two images advertising two separate companies. Ive set it up so the images and urls are different and they go to their own websites and in my tracking table i have just added an extra column called image and the number 1 goes in if image 1 is clicked on or 2 if image 2 is clicked on. However, to display this is the bit im not sure about. At the moment its displayed in a table like this: Advert Name Category Number of clicks Advert 1 Shopping 257 However, if advert 1 has two images, meaning two separate companies, how can I show this in the above table?

Identifying Dynamic Form Fields
User goes to page which is a form that asks for some basic info regarding returning products for credit/exchange, and also asks for how many products are going to be returned. Upon submitting, a return authorization form is presented to them with the specified number of product fields. I now want to take the input from this form and email it to myself, as well as, display a confirmation page to the user. The problem I have is a can't say, for instance, echo "$field_name"; because field_name will get created dynamically after the user specifies how many products to return. For example, say the user says 5 products, this will generate a form with field names like: return_code0 inv_num0 qty0 product0 cre_exch0 stockout0 return_code1 inv_num1 qty1 product1 cre_exch1 stockout1 return_code2 inv_num2 qty2 product2 cre_exch2 stockout2 and so on.... These get created with a for() loop. Once this form is submitted, how can I address the field names? Code:

Identifying Non-Supported Characters In A TTF File With GD?
I've managed to get GD working (mostly anyway) on my site - and am utilising the "imagettftext" function. I am using this function to display individual characters on my website - with a nominated Font. However, sometimes the characters in my StringText are not supported by the particular font that I am using ... Directly from http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.imagettftext.php imagettftext - "If a character is used in the string which is not supported by the font, a hollow rectangle will replace the character." Can anyone suggest some code that would: 1) compare/look at the StringText supplied within the "imagettftext" function (in my case the StringText will comprise of a single character only) 2) where the supplied StringText (ie character) is NOT supported by the font, then I need for that character to be reported as not supported. ie. either; return a flag or skip the non-supported character entirely - rather than displaying the standard "hollow rectangle".

Identifying Opening Link For Database Query?
I've got a tricky problem i need to solve, i'm building a banner exchange type site in which there are already about 100 banners so i've had to code things around what already exists to a certain extent. Now each of the banners that go out on other sites have a link on the banner which pops open a window with details of the banner. this would be fine if all my banners were gifs and jpgs but there are also swf and dcr banners so i have no real control over the actual link on the banner. up until now each banner had a html page made for it so when you clicked on a banner it would open a page banner_1.html which had the details of that banner. for obvious reasons i'm going to replace all these redundant pages and put a htaccess redirect at their url to all redirect to a common page popup.php so all details will be dealt with in one file. ok this is fine but my problem is in this page popup.php i need to identify the link that just opened the window so that i can then get the info from the database to put on the page.. remember i can't use the url like so... bannerpage.php?thisbanner=1 but all existing links have unique addresses, is there a way to do this, i'm pretty sure there must be but i can't get my head around it?

Identifying User's Pick From Selection List

My goal is to pass the unique row ID of the selected item to a subsequent form where all the fields will be displayed for the user to edit.

Form, Type=file And Identifying By Isset()
Windows XP PHP 4.4.2 Apache 2.2 Register_Globals = Off Safe_Mode = On ----------------------- Hi All, I am having a problem getting a file browse input field to be recognized on the next page. Let me show you... page1.php Contains a web form with a file input to attach a file using a browse button. <form method='POST' action='page2.php' enctype='multipart/form-data'> <input name='uploadFile1' type='file' id=uploadFile1'> page2.php contains a validator to check the input and perform an action based on whether or not the browse input field has been populated. // IF THE POST CONTAINS A FILE UPLOAD, PROCESS SECTION 1 IF NOT PROCESS SECTION 2. if (isset($_POST['uploadFile1'])) { echo "File is attached so print this."; } if (!isset($_POST['uploadFile1'])) { echo "File is NOT attached so print this."; } If the user uses the browse button on the form page to populate the field with a file path to a file on his pc, then I expect to see the "File is attached message". However, regardless of whether someone does or does not browse a file, the message is always that they have NOT browsed a file and the variable "uploadFile1" is effectively left unpopulated. OUTPUT File is NOT attached so print this. Conversley, I thought I might be able to use the _FILES variable instead of _POST, but I get the exact opposite, that the browse field is populated all the time whether or not someone has browsed a file or left the browse field blank. if (isset($_FILES['uploadFile1'])) { echo "File is attached so print this."; } if (!isset($_FILES['uploadFile1'])) { OUTPUT File is attached so print this. So, I am missing something. Can someone give me some direction so that I can simply identify (with register_globals = Off) whether or not an input field (input type=file) has been populated or left blank? Is this even possible? What am I missing?
