[PHP] html tags
Hi everyone,
A quick question about html tags and PHP. I have a text area where users
can submit text, and I need them to able to have links in the text if they
so choose.
The contents get written to an ini style flat file database.
The problem comes when I try to print that content back out from the file -
I get a warning from the parse_ini_file() function:
Warning: Error parsing ./data/events on line 9 in Unknown on line 0
Line 9 happens to be the line in the events file that contains the a href
tag. I have tried to do a base64_encode() on the data from the text area,
and then wrote it to the ini file encapsulated in double quotes. It still
fails when I do the base64_decode(), except then I get nothing printed back
to the browser. Any ideas?

===CODE
// Get the form variables
$month = $_REQUEST['month'];
$day = $_REQUEST['day'];
$year = $_REQUEST['year'];
$time = $_REQUEST['time'];
$bands = $_REQUEST['bands'];
$venue = $_REQUEST['venue'];
$description = base64_encode($_REQUEST['description']);
list_events()
{
$ALLEVENTS = parse_ini_file('./data/events', TRUE);
while (list ($key, $value) = each ($ALLEVENTS))
{
print 'br';
print 'table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0 width=100%
tr
td bgcolor=#AA align=left
font color=black size=2
Saje, Live at '.stripslashes($value['venue']).
'/font

[PHP] Re: Removing elements of multidimensional array
Hey everyone,
I am reading an ini file into an array using the parse_ini_file() function. What I
want to do is delete a section from the ini file, and thought that the best way to
do it would be to unset one of the keys in the array returned by the parse function.
I then want to
write the modified array back out to the ini file. I am having a hard time doing
the unset though - what am I missing?
* CODE *
// Parse out the events file
$array = parse_ini_file('./data/events', TRUE);
while($key = key($array))
{
if ($key == $event)
{
unset($key);
next($array);
}
else { next($array); }
}
// This prints the contents of the array, and the value that I tried to unset is
still there...
print_r($array);
* END CODE *
Thanks!

Never mind. I am SUCH a moron.
// This works just fine...
unset($array[$event]);

[PHP] parsing ini files
Hey everybody,
I'm new the list and to PHP, so I thought I'd launch right in with a
question.
I have a file which contains the following syntax:
; Events listings
[event]
month = january
day = 23
year = 2003
venue = some club
description = this is an event
[event]
month = january
day = 12
year = 2003
venue = another club
description = this is another event
Each one of these headers sections represents the start of a new event. So,
my code does the following:
$EVENTS = parse_ini_file('./data/events', TRUE);
while($key = key($EVENTS))
{
$$key = current($EVENTS); //variable variables
next($EVENTS);
}
The problem is that when I try to print the values for $venue, $day, etc, I
only get the values for the last section encountered. I need a way to get
the values of all the events - do my section heads need to be unique, or can
I continue to use the same format in my ini file?
Thanks in advance!
