and in this file I have a form, but instead of having the HTML I have text field for a text box, and cbox for an option box with a yes or no. I am then replacing all instances of "text field" with <INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="txtbox[]">. I have this page submitting to a page that is supposed to take the values submitted from the last page and replace all instances of "text field", in the text file, with the values submitted right now I am using Code:

Replacing A String In A Larger String
i want to remove an email from a list of emails stored in a text file. using str_replace i can replace an email with nothing, but if the list is serated by commans, that would result in this: email@...,,email@...,email@... with no email between 2 commas. if i replace the email address with a comma on the end with nothing, it wouldn't work for the last one. if i replace the email address with a comma at the beginning, it wouldn't work for the first one. how can i avoid this or work around it?

Need Help Replacing Character In String

Replacing Characters In A String
I am writing a search engine with PHP which takes the search string and checks it inside a mySQL table using a LIKE statement with the variable enclosed in %s. The engine is for an aviation site. So for example, I would like things like "F-16", "F.16", "F16", and "F 16" all to generate the same hits, say, by turning it into F%16. I believe the correct PHP function is ereg_replace but I have no idea how to actually use it because I am unfamiliar with all the characters used in these types of functions (all the / } [ whatever).

Replacing Certain Letters In A String?
I'm having some URL/SEO Issues. I have a video website, and for the sake of SEO, I put ?video=blah instead of ?videoid=##. Now, the spaces are replaced with %20. This is really bad when it comes to SEO. A user will probably not click something that has a bunch of %20s and such when they see it on an seo. Now, Is there a php way of replacing certain letters in a string?

Replacing Multiple Characters In A String
I want to remove some characters from form input. Using this: $comment = str_replace('example', 'Example', $comment); works great, but how would I replace more than one charcter or string? Would it be done with an array? I knew how to with Perl, but I can't find the equivilent in PHP. Also, for security purposes, would removing characters like ";<>&*~|#" from the form input be a good start in keeping my forms less open to sneaky coders? Maybe replacing those characters with the ISO character set numbers? This is for a guestbook-type page, so I feel that high security isn't that necessary for the file the input is being written to. I just don't want people to be able to screw around with other files via the form.

Replacing Two Strings Within A String And Copying What's Between Them
Yeah, kinda hard to sum up in a title. Basically, I'm trying to do something like BBCode, but I'm only making one tag--a link tag. For example, a user types [url]http://the.wesite.com/[/url], then the php code replaces [url] with <a href="http://the.website.com/"> and [/url] with </a>. Then the URL would appear again between the <a> tags. I've tried looking around, but I can't figure out which of the many string replacement functions I need to use.

Sorting An Array Problem, (array/string Manipulation)
I have a function that I found on google, that goes through a directory and spits out a directory tree in an array, with arrays inside of arrays, and more and more arrays inside of arrays, depending on how many subdirectories are there..... Here is a sample "directory tree" it spits out. My problem is wanting to be able to create a new array containing only the paths to all the subdirectories it finds from this array, so it is with array manipulation... Not all paths are located in the topmost array's values, but some directories are within other subdirectories and so forth.. I'm stumped on how exactly to sort through this array, whether recursively or not to grab all the 'paths' in the array period. Code:

"Array To String Conversion" Error When Constructing A Multi-dimensional Array
I'm a bit stumped as I am getting a "Notice: Array to String Conversion" error when trying to do something that on the surface should be a very simple task - create an array, and write a set of values to them based on data submitted from POST Fields. Code below: $_SESSION["increment"] = array(); $x = 0 // Counter - This will be incremented $_SESSION["increment"][$x] = array("increment_bond" => $_POST["increment_bond"], "increment_amount" = $_POST["increment_amount"], "increment_comm_date1" = $_POST["increment_comm_date1"], "increment_comm_date2" =$_POST["increment_comm_date2"], "increment_comm_date3" = $_POST["increment_comm_date3"]); It keeps throwing out that error, and does not write any of the POST Values to the array (the POST values are definitely getting sent, so that is not the problem). If I dump out the value of $_SESSION["increment"], I get "1A" ?!? I'm sure that there is a pretty simple mistake lurking somewhere - I just can't seem to figure it out.

String List To Array
I'm trying to convert a slash-delimited string to an array, but I'm wary of null elements that I want to eliminate. I'm frustrated with explode(), array_unique(), and array_pop(), and I'm wondering if there's a better way. I'm only interested in unique array elements. Here's what I've got $a = "10/20/30" should become an array where $b[0] = 10, $b[1] = 20, and $b[2] = 30. Now here's the fun part. Often my arrays will have $a = "10//" I'd like that to become $b[0] = 10 and that's all. So I tried applying array_unique() to explode("/", $a) but you have to be careful about how many elements are returned. Then I tried to use array_pop() to drop the last element if it's empty, but array_pop returns a scalar string when there's only one element left. So when you use $b = array_pop($q), sometimes there is no $b[0].

Is $Settings['string'] An Example Of An Array?
I'm still pretty new to PHP and I have a question. I know that variables are preceeded by a "$" (dollar sign). Typically, a variable has one value, unless it is an array. Then it is essentially a pointer to numerous values sequential in memory. The code I'm looking at now is using the same variable name, but assigning a different "index" to it, if you will. For example, I see the following: $settings['use_default_images'] $settings['doctype'] $settings['theme_url'] And many more. What is this feature called in PHP? I looked at the reference on php.net and it isn't anywhere to be found under arrays.
