I am looking for a regular expression that would allow me to find and replace all instances with id="comment" with adding incremental number. Like id="comment1", id="comment2" and so on. I have about 400+ instances in an HTML document.
Should I use notepad++? What is the easiest way to do this?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance
I'm not sure what might be the easiest way, but I highly doubt that'd be any regular expression.
Maybe, with a for loop we could do that. For instance, it would look something like this in PHP:
<?php
$str = file_get_contents('path/to/html/file/filename.html');
$arr = preg_split('/id="comment"/', $str);
foreach ($arr as $key => $value) {
$count = $key + 1;
if ($key == sizeof($arr) - 1) {
$new_str .= $value;
} else {
$new_str .= $value . ' id="comment' . $count . '"';
}
}
$str = file_put_contents('path/to/html/file/filename_modified.html', $new_str);

I have to read a txt file into a HTML table.
There are many fields in it but I only want to read the field that says "value".
Here is my txt file:
one=availability:, timestamp=90754, value=no
two=description:, timestamp=074693, value=not sure
three=Name, timestamp=90761, value=yes
The one, two, three values are my row headers and I want it to display the values underneath.
Is there anyway of doing this using iframe?? PHP is not working for me.
Supposing the value is always the last field and you are reading the file line by line I would use a dirty approach:
$value = explode('value=', $line)[1];
longwinded approach
$headers=[];
$values=[];
$lines = file('./homework.txt', FILE_IGNORE_NEW_LINES);
foreach($lines as $line){
$chunks = explode(',',$line);
foreach($chunks as $index => $chunk){
list($key, $value) = explode('=', trim($chunk));
if(!$index){
$headers[] = $value;
}
if('value' === $key){
$values[] = $value;
}
}
}
echo "<table><thead><tr>";
foreach($headers as $h){
echo "<th>{$h}</th>";
}
echo "</tr></thead><tbody><tr>";
foreach($values as $v){
echo "<td>{$v}</td>";
}
echo "</tr></tbody></table>";
If all rows follow the same pattern you can probably use:
//$textfilestring = "one=availability:, timestamp=90754, value=no
//two=description:, timestamp=074693, value=not sure
//three=Name, timestamp=90761, value=yes";
$textfilestring = file_get_contents("PATH_TO_FILE");
$arraylines = explode("\n", $textfilestring);
for ($i=0;$i<count($arraylines);$i++) {
$arraylines[$i] = explode("value=", $arraylines[$i]);
}
echo "<pre>";
var_dump($arraylines);
echo "</pre>";
echo $arraylines[0][1] . "<br>";
echo $arraylines[1][1] . "<br>";
echo $arraylines[2][1] . "<br>";
$arraylines should be twodimensional with one part beeing
one=availability:, timestamp=90754,
and one beeing
no
Not tested though.
I'm trying to build a members-system in which you can view certain values from a database.
It worked, so that was great, but I'm having a problem now because I'm using a NULL value on 'age'.
When viewing a profile page, it looks like this:
$id = $_GET["id"];
$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM membersfromsite WHERE `idofmember`=$_GET[id]");
$row = mysql_fetch_array($result);
echo "<b>" . $row['userusername'] . "</b>: </p>"; ?>
<?php
$id = $_GET["id"];
$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM membersfromsite WHERE `idofmember`=$_GET[id]");
$noage = mysql_query("SELECT ISNULL([age]) FROM membersfromsite WHERE `idofmember`=$_GET[id]");
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result))
{
echo "<p class='middle'>id-number: " . $row['idofmember'] . "<br>";
echo "Username: " . $row['userusername'] . "<br>";
if ($noage)
{
echo "Age not specified";
}
else
{
echo "Age: " .$row['age'] ;
}
}
I have tried all kinds of other things, but the problem which I 'm having is that it either returns 'Age not specified' on every userpage or the age on every userpage, including the pages with a NULL value, which makes it look like:
Age:
The code which you can see above returns the age on every page, including the pages with an age which is set to NULL. What I don't understand is if I change the code to this:
$noage = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM membersfromsite WHERE `idofmember`=$_GET[id] AND age IS NULL");
it simply doesn't work. Since I'm using IS NULL instead of = NULL I don't really see why this shouldn't work, but I guess it has to do with the IF which is inside the 'while' thing, I don't really see in what other way I could fix this though...
I'm having an idea what the problem is, because I think that there is already a MyQS, Query done with Results and $noage is maybe ignored because of this, but I don't know how to solve this.
You don't need to do a whole separate $noage query.
Just do:
if(!$row['age'])
{
echo "Age not specified";
}
else
{
echo "Age: " .$row['age'] ;
}
Instead of if($noage) use if(!$row['age']) and skip the second query.
The other reason your code does not work is that the second query returns an array with something like array('expr1' => 0) which is not false. You only get a false result if nothing is found.
The reason why = NULL does not work? There are books written about it, it is just as it is.
Rather than relying on MySQL to tell us if no age was found or not, we can programatically determine whether the age value is Null right in PHP.
Here is an example:
$id = $_GET['id'];
$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM membersfromsite WHERE `idofmember` = '" . mysql_real_escape_string($id) . "'");
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
echo '<p class='middle'>id-number: ' . $row['idofmember'] . '<br>';
echo 'Username: ' . $row['userusername'] . '<br>';
if($row['age'] === Null) {
echo "Age not specified";
} else {
echo "Age: " .$row['age'] ;
}
}
i want to echo one value from mysql column which is 90% similar to php variable.
echo only the value that is 90% similar to php value.
i think like clause wont help in this case.
<?php
$x = $_GET[x];
$con=mysqli_connect("example.com","peter","abc123","my_db");
$res = mysqli_query($con,"SELECT * FROM text");
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($res))
{
$string[] = $row['text'];
}
foreach ($string as $y)
{
similar_text($x, $y, $percent);
}
if ($percent>"90")
{
echo $string ;
?>
i think the above code has many mistakes. i welcome some new solution for my task.
my $url = "\'http://".$server.":4080/cgi-bin/gen_graph.pl?view=5&SUBSYS=\'";
my $html = HTML::TagParser->new( $url );
my #list = $html->getElementsByTagName( "pre" );
print $list[0];
foreach my $elem ( #list ) {
if($elem->innerText =~ /APIs/){
my $text = $elem->innerText;
if ( $text eq "" ) {
} else {
#API_list = split(/\s+/, $text);
print $API_list[1];
}
}
}
return \#API_list;
}
here the line my #list = $html->getElementsByTagName( "pre" ); not working. if i do this as a seperate script it is working well.. but if i include it in another script there is no value in #list. can anyone help me?
Are you getting an error message? If so, what is it?
Have you thought to check the return value of HTML::TagParser->new()? If it's failing, it may be doing so silently, and you only find out later when you try to use your $html object.
I do think the URL you're handing to it looks odd.
"\'http://".$server.":4080/cgi-bin/gen_graph.pl?view=5&SUBSYS=\'"
Why the two layers of quotes? (double quotes, and then escaped single quotes). Wouldn't this work:
my $url = 'http://'
. $server
. ':4080/cgi-bin-gen_graph.pl?view=5&SUBSYS=';
(Extra whitespace added to make it easier to read the concatenation operator.)
I want to convert my sql data to csv files while clicking on a button. The code fragments I found for sql to CSV conversion were in PHP, and I'm trying to convert it to CakePHP since I'm working in CakePHP.
Here is the PHP code I'm tring to convert:
$result = mysql_query("SHOW COLUMNS FROM ".$table."");
$i = 0;
if (mysql_num_rows($result) > 0) {
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
$csv_output .= $row['Field']."; ";
$i++;
}
}
$csv_output .= "\n";
$values = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM ".$table."");
while ($rowr = mysql_fetch_row($values)) {
for ($j=0;$j<$i;$j++) {
$csv_output .= $rowr[$j]."; ";
}
$csv_output .= "\n";
}
$filename = $file."_".date("Y-m-d_H-i",time());
header("Content-type: application/vnd.ms-excel");
header("Content-disposition: csv" . date("Y-m-d") . ".csv");
header( "Content-disposition: filename=".$filename.".csv");
print $csv_output;
SOLUTION
Function in the Controller:
function exporttocsv()
{
$this->set('headers',$this->Result->find('all',array('fields'=>'Result.label')));
$this->set('values',$this->Result->find('all',array('fields'=>'Result.value')));
}
exporttocsv.ctp file:
<?php
foreach($headers as $header):
$csv_output .=$header['Result']['label'].", ";
endforeach;
$csv_output .="\n";
if(!empty($values)){
foreach($values as $value):
$csv_output .=$value['Result']['value'].", ";
endforeach;
$csv_output .="\n";
}
else{
echo "There is no data to export.";
}
$filename = "export_".date("Y-m-d_H-i",time());
header("Content-type: application/vnd.ms-excel");
header("Content-disposition: csv" . date("Y-m-d") . ".csv");
header("Content-disposition: filename=".$filename.".csv");
print $csv_output;
exit;
?>
First of all, you don't do queries and output in the same file in Cake. You query the data as usual in the Controller, $this->set() the result to the view, and in the view you do something like this:
foreach ($results as $result) {
echo join(', ', $result['COLUMNS']);
echo "\n";
}
Outputs something like this:
value, varchar(25), NO, , ,
submitter, int(11), NO, , ,
...
Since Cake automatically wraps a layout around your view, you'll have to set the layout to something different, like 'ajax' (which is simply an empty layout).
deceze is correct about outputting the results from the view file. You'll just need to set some headers so that it appears as a file download on the client side. You can simply put these 2 calls in the top of your view:
header("Content-type:application/vnd.ms-excel");
header("Content-disposition:attachment;filename=\"{$filename}\"" );
If you plan on doing csv downloads in more than one place in your application, I'd recommend this helper:
http://bakery.cakephp.org/articles/view/csv-helper-php5
I use it and it works well.
