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">)

Text Display From My MySQL Database
There is also an id field that's an INI auto_increment. When I select the rows and try to display them, it appears as nothing. There are no error messages, but it just displays as nothing instead of the message in the MySQL database? What's wrong? PHP Code: <?php include "db_connect.php"; $id = $_GET['id']; $sql = 'SELECT note FROM `notes` LIMIT 0, 30 WHERE id=$id' $result = mysql_query($sql); echo "Notes:<br><br>$result"; echo "ID #: $id"; ?>

Text File Displaying On Screen
I have a file that downloaded a CSV file for the user based upon some information gathered from the Database. My file was working fine until recently (I believe that my hosting company did something when they upgraded to PHP5). Everytime a user tries to download the file, it displays the contents on the screen. Here is what I have for my file handling. Am I missing anything obvious? when called, $filecontent is displayed to the screen... $downloadfile=$shownic."AttendeeRoster".time().".csv"; header("Content-disposition: attachment; filename=$downloadfile"); header("Content-type: text/css; charset=UTF-8"); header("Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary"); header("Content-Length: ".strlen($filecontent)); header("Pragma: no-cache"); header("Expires: 0"); echo $filecontent;

Quickly Adding Text To A Mysql Text Field That Is NOT Empty
Is there a way to insert text into a mysql text field that already has text into it; without having first to extract the existing data and append the new text to that string variable and then insert the new string. Basically i'm looking for a way to do it with a single query not 2 (one being a select to gather existing data).

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.

How Do You Query A Db From Link Text?
I was wondering how I would go about doing this. I would like to return some items from a database depending on what a user clicked. I would like to just use the link text that was clicked on. Then I would search through one field in each record to see if it matched that text, if so, I would display it. I'm not sure how I could give each link a value though. I would like someway to get the link's text and use that to search a database. Thanks in advance for all the help!!!

Formatting Text - Read More .. Link
I am currently looking for a way to have text that is entered in my news service (it is added to a databse, then displayed) to be cut off after a certain length on some pages (mainly the front page)...kind of like what you see on some sites with the "read more" at the end. I want it so i could enter a long news/article update, then on the home page it would be shortened, and when the user clicks on the title, it takes them to the detail page with the full length article. I am using dreamweaver, if that makes any difference.

Removing URL Link From Text Field
How can i remove a URL link from a form text field or the area where results are posted when a user enters http://www.mywhateversite.com. For example, here on this site. I want to allow the text, but not the link. If you guys are familiar with myspace and have tried to put a link to another site, the myspace site automatically changes it to something else or blank. Thus allowing the user to post the site url, but without the link.

Passing Text String Through Link
I am creating a setup where a user can return to their last search results after editing a file within those results, and I've done this by passing the mysql query string through the URLs of links. The problem I think I'm having is that this text string contains spaces (ie: $string = "SELECT * FROM...") and this creates a funky URL (search.php?id=1?string=SELECT * FROM. that the browser chokes on. The first value gets passed but the second is lost. Do I need to encode the value of $string somehow to get it to pass to the next page?

Creating A Link Inside A String Of Text
First I want to grab a string of text from a database like so, $query = "SELECT text FROM $database WHERE id = '$id'"; The text will look something like this, echo "This is some text about widget nuggets and how they work"; What I want to do is put the word "widget nuggets" inside a function that will turn it into a link like this, echo "This is some text about ". link( 'widget nuggets' ) ." and how they work"; My first thought on how to approach this would be to add some type of identifier around the text in the database I want to be turned into a link like so, "This is some text about ^widget nuggets* and how they work" What symbols would you use? What symbols are allowed in mysql? Anyway, now that i've marked the text to be put inside a function what would be the best approach to searching the string for this text? My current thought would be to count the length of the string and then do a substr search for the occurences of the characters and insert the function call in the appropriate places. I am also thinking about preg_match but I am thinking there is a better and more effecient way to do this.

Text File Display
I have a number of SQL reports that create standard 132 column text files. The user wishes to view these files in a browser in addition to their daily printing on a laser printer. I can handle directory structure, etc with PHP but I would like to know what is the best way of displaying these text files on screen. We can select them but they are very plain. Is there a TXT2HTML ot TXT2XML type tool that can display headings, bolding, etc without too much difficulty. I would rather not reprogram the reports as there are hundreds of them, and embedding HTML would not be an answer as they need to be printed on a regular laser.

Japanese Text Display
I have Japanese data coming from a mySQL database. It's internal encoding is EUC-JP and it is outputted as SJIS. This actually works just fine. My question comes from the fact that once these changes were made, all the static Japanese text on the page is botched. The meta tag in the head is set to Shift_JIS(SJIS) and it worked before the change. Any suggestions? I just can't see how the two match up... The encoding of the db info shouldn't affect the encoding of static info on the page should it? Especially when they are both output in the same encoding..

How To Change Template Menu Link Text Color For Page Currently Viewed ??
Say you have a left menu that stays the same on every page within in your site. Obviously you would make this menu a template or library item, so that when you edit one version, all the others are updated. Let's say the left menu is the following: Page_1 Page_2 Page_3 Now, when I am viewing Page_1, I want the "Page_1" text in the left menu to be red, so that the viewer knows what page they are on. When I click on the left menu link for "Page_2", then I want the "Page_1" text to go back to black and the "Page_2" text to be red.
