Hi,
I have several systems running which gather, store and process bibliographic
data. I have treated pageranges on the basis of two fields per range - start
and end, with supplemantary ranges available as well.
I've never had to deal with more than 3 ranges in a reference: chapter,
references and notes. Now, a client has asked for 6 ranges. I could
futureproof this by putting 10 ranges in but I got to thinking about how
Pagemaker used to handle prining (and how Micro$oft do now) where I can note
a range as (example) 1-4,6,8-10.
I need to be able to parse this type of string so that I can identify the
number of pages being referenced.
I also need to ensure that the user hasn't entered a mixed range such as
xiii-5 (I know that the second part of that is 1-5 but I don't know what the
highest roman numeral was). I do know how to handle the roman calculations,
so that's a side issue.
I'm guessing that regex is the way to go, but whenever I'm confronted with
it, I look for a chinese interpreter.
Any suggestions?

I am not used to work with regex, either, so here are my 2pence...
Just writing as I think, I would say something like
- Explode the string looking for the comma
- If the resulting "pieces" are numerical, fine.
- If not, explode them indivudually looking for the hiphen
- If the results are numeric, fine
- If in between something "non-numeric" is found, you have an error
This, obviously, ignoring the roman numerals...

Hi,
Solved it but there may be a more elegant/efficient way?
my code:
==============================================
<?php
$range = $_POST['range'];
$x=0;
$pc=0;
$rg = explode(",",$range);
$rc = sizeof($rg);
while( $x < $rc ){
$z = explode("-",$rg[$x]);
if (sizeof($z)==1){
$pc++;
} else {
$pc+=(($z[1]-$z[0])+1);
}
$x++;
}
echo="Range has $rg groups and $pc pages<br><br>";
?>

I'm using fx to extract data from a FileMaker database and am encountering
some HTML entity issues. This data is going into a pdf page, so isn't being
displayed on the web.
The copyright symbol comes out like: © and I've noticed a couple of
accented characters as well.
The data was put on by a Mac client so its natural for them not to use the
usual coding.
Can anyone point me in the right direction to get this sorted?
html_entity_decode() didn't work (and didn't show as a php function in DW).

Hi
I am using the domxml php extension for transforming XSLT, only I have
the problem that it doesnt take some of my <XSL:output> settings into
acocunt. For example when I set ident="yes" it doesn't ident the output,
and when I enabled the "omit-xml-declaration"-attribute this <?xml>
declaration is this availabe, which should not in the output.
The XSL:Output I use:
<xsl:output
doctype-public="-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
doctype-system="http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd";
encoding="UTF-8"
method="xml"
indent="yes"
omit-xml-declaration="yes"
/>
When I use the exact same XSLT file with php_xslt extension/Sablotron
the output is as expected both settings are taken into account. Does
anyone know if I am doing something wrong in my code? (see code below)
I think it's a bug in the php_xmldom extension, because when I use
xsltproc.exe (standalone version libxsl) the output is okay too.
The code I use for transforming the xml file can be find below:
//
// Process the XML file together with the XSLT file to generate the
apporiate XHTML page...
$xml = domxml_open_mem( $result ); // create a XmlDocument-object with
the return xml file...
if ( !$xml ) {
die( "Error while parsing the XML document. Application has aborted." );
}
// assign the XSLT stylesheet for this XML document...
$xsl = domxml_xslt_stylesheet_file( $xsl_file );
// process the XSLT stylesheet with the assigned XML document...
$result = NULL;
$result = $xsl->process( $xml );
if ( DEBUG_MODE ) {
$result->dump_file( $output_file );
}
echo $result->dump_mem();
$xml->free(); // dispose the object

Hi all, I am fairly new to this (attended a beginners course last week) and
I have been asked to install PHP on or 4 web servers (spread over 4 sites),
all the servers are exactly the same running Windows XP and IIS 5.
I downloaded the latest PHP 4.3.7 and managed to install it perfectly on 3
of the servers the last one that I tried all seemed to install correctly but
I keep getting HTTP error 400 Bad request. Someone suggested going to the
C:\PHP directory and creating a php document in there called test.php with
<?phpinfo();?> to test I did this and PHP is working so I am baffled now.
The only difference I can see with the output of the file on a working
server and the one that is not working is the Configuration File (php.ini)
Path on the server that is not working this is set to
"C:\Documents and Settings\administrator.INTERNAL\WINDOWS\php.ini " and the
one that works
"C:\WINNT\php.ini ". Where is the path set? I installed PHP one each server
using the same logon account?
I hope someone can help as this is starting to drive me mad.
Thanks
Stephen
