Hello Bob,
Nope, didn't work, it gave me this error:
*************************************
Fatal error: Cannot redeclare smallwords() (previously declared
in /home/treasure/public_html/asb/start_search.php:250)
in /home/treasure/public_html/asb/start_search.php on line 250
*************************************
Line 250 says:
function smallWords($value) {
This is what I am using now and it works great:
************************************
$filename=strtolower($title);
$filename = preg_replace("/[^a-z,^0-9 ]/", "", $filename);
$filename=substr(str_replace(" ","_",$filename),0,100).".html";
$remove = array
('_to_','_the_','_it_','_and_','_or_','_with_','_too_','_also_','_an_
','_if_','_at_','_a_','_i_','_in_','_for_','_of_','_on_','_it_','`','
!','@','#','$','%','^','&','*','(',')','[',']','{','}',':',';',',','?
','=','+','-','__','___','____');
$filename=str_replace($remove,"_",$filename);
$filename=str_replace($remove,"",$filename);
*************************************
I know it still has some symbols listed, I tried to use it without
the symbols listed to be removed and for some reason, on one
filename it had a "," in it, so I went back in and added a few
symbols just to make sure it got all of them. I also added
underscores before and after each word to be removed so that it
would remove that word only and not remove those letters from other
words ("toward" became "ward"). It doesn't matter if it's pretty or
elegant, I just need it to work, and this works.
Thanks!
