Re: [PHP] formatting paragraphs in to strings

2005-06-13 Thread John Browne
Use the PHP str_replace function before writing it to the DB.  Replace
all \n characters with an empty string .

 Hi,
 
  I'm having a perplexing problem. I'm gather data through a textarea
 html from field and dumping it to MySQL.
 
  I want to display the data as a long string with no carriage returns or
 line breaks in a dhtml div window.
 
 The problem I'm have is that the form data is remembering the carriage
 returns. I tried using trim() and rtrim() with no luck. The data is
 still formatted exactly like it was inputed.
 
 Any ideas why this is happening and how I can format the text properly??
 
 TIA!

Good point.  Only problem is, if someone hit enter a-million times,
you would end up with a-million spaces where the \n characters were.
 To take care of that repetition, maybe something like:


while (strpos($textarea_text, \n\n)) {
 .
}


would be one way you could do it.

 I think it might be better to replace all \n characters with spaces  ,
 otherwise you will end up with sentences that have no space break between
 them.
 
 Ie:
 
 original text
 This is the first sentence.
 
 This is the second sentence.
 /original text
 
 ...would become:
 
 replaced text
 This is the first sentence.This is the second sentence.
 /replaced text

Right..  But the browser also should be ignoring the carriage returns
as well, which makes me think the div is set to white-space: pre; or
something.  He said the text is being formatted in a div exactly how
it is entered into the system.  By default, a div does not render any
carriage returns.

 Ordinarily most browsers render multiple consecutive spaces as a single
 space. This doesn't mean that it's not a good idea to remove them, just that
 not doing so shouldn't effect the way the text is displayed in the div tag,
 as the original poster mentioned was his intention.

Re: [PHP] OT ??: Form posting without leaving form

 This is perhaps a javascript question
 
 Is there a way to post a form to a url without having a user submit from
 the form?
 
 I have a php web page that is a detailed form with a lot of fields.  If
 the user does some work on this form and let's it sit, their session can
 time out (I had this happen to the user after it sat for 2 hours).  Is
 there some way to have a timer in the page and have partial form results
 sent back to the server, but still leave the form on the screen as-is?
 In other words, I want to have the client periodically post the form
 data back to the server, but leave the same web page displayed.
 
 Thanks,
 Bruce

[PHP] XSLT processor and xsl:param - expected behavior?

2005-06-09 Thread John Browne
Question..  I'm using PHP 5.0.4 with the built-in libxslt-based xsl
extension. I'm passing XSL parameters to the XSL processor like so:

$xslt_proc-setParameter('', 'param_test', some test value);

My question is, is it *required* to declare this parameter in the XSL
stylesheet with:

xsl:param name=param_test /

What I have noticed is, the transformation is successful and works the
same whether I declare the parameter using xsl:param or not.  The
following:

xsl:value-of select=$param_test/

works fine without the xsl:param declaration, the xsl processor does
not give an error, and the parameter is available for use in the
stylesheet.

Shouldn't the xsl:param declaration be required and cause a
transformation error if it's missing?
