Hey! Thanks, I think in_array() is what I was looking for, but by a quick glance I think its case sensitive (?), I didnt want to use a class for this coz it kind of seemed like using a gun instead of a flyswatter.... :-)
Also, any way to check if a remote file exists? I am presently using this: $url='http://www.blah.net/movie.mpg'; $addy=parse_url($url); $addy['port']=isset($addy['port'])?$addy['port']:80; $sh=fsockopen($addy['host'],$addy['port']) or die('cant open socket'); fputs($sh,"HEAD {$addy['path']} HTTP/1.1\r\nHost: {$addy['host']}\r\n\r\n"); while($line=fgets($sh)) if(preg_match('/^Content-Length: (d+)/',$line,$m)) $size=$m[1]; echo isset($size)?"size of $url file is $size": 'no such file: '.$url; Thanks, Mag > in_array() can check your $string against a array > and return if a bad word > is in string > > Is this what you are after? > > Chris Kay (CK) > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > -----Original Message----- > From: Mag [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Sunday, 17 October 2004 12:41 AM > To: php php > Subject: [PHP] dirty words > > Hi, > I am useing file_get_contents on a remote page then > using stristr() to make > sure there are no "bad words" > and its a family site. > Right now I am checking for just 3 bad words which > means 3 stristr() > function calls, but if the bad words increase then > that would mean more > calls.... > > I have seen some forum software before that used to > take an array of bad > words and check it against the post, anybody have an > idea what that function > would be like coz I am pretty sure I am going about > this the wrong way...php > has a simple solution to most of these problems... > > Thanks, > Mag > > ===== > ------ > - The faulty interface lies between the chair and > the keyboard. > - Creativity is great, but plagiarism is faster! > - Smile, everyone loves a moron. :-) > > > > __________________________________ > Do you Yahoo!? > Yahoo!
