Re: [PHP] Split/Group date together.
Normally, what I do here is handle that in the loop to display the records
... so start by adding an order by clause to keep the dates together
SELECT * FROM transportdokument WHERE dato >= '16/7/2013' AND dato
<= '18/7/2013' order by dato
$prior_date = "";
$sHTML = "";
while($rows = mysql_fetch_array($result)){
if ($prior_date != $rows['dato']){
if($open_table){
$sHTML .= "";
$prior_date = $rows['dato'];
}
}
$sHTML .= "";
$sHTML .= "". $rows['dato'] . "";
$sHTML .= "". $rows['some_field'] . "";
$sHTML .= "". $rows['another_field'] . "";
$sHTML .= "". $rows['third_field'] . "";
$sHTML .= "";
}
$sHTML .= "";

Re: [PHP] Split
Hi,
First, read the help of 'preg_replace' at php.net.
Second: try this: preg_split('/\//',$sPath,$iMax)
Third: use explode: explode('/',)

That's because those functions use regexp strings to split.
Besides, split() itself is deprecated as of 5.3. Instead, what you're
looking for is explode(). Give that a try and you should be good to
go.

It would be easier to standardize the input so you only have to run one regular expression check to validate and then split the data up.

[PHP] Split up Date Range
I haven't been able to find anything by googling... Does anyone know of any libraries that will split up date ranges? We've got a project where "Date Of Attendance" is moving from a single type in character field to an automatically built field based on a DateBegin date field and a DateEnd date field. Some examples of what I'd like ideally... Given: July 19-22, 2009 Return: 7/19/2009 and 7/22/2009 Given: July 19th and 20th Return: 7/19/2009 and 7/20/2009 (we can safely assume current year for this project) Given: Sept 19, 2009 - Sept 22, 2009 Return: 9/19/2009 and 9/22/2009 Given: July 19th, 2009 Return: 7/19/2009 and 7/19/2009 Given: 7/19/2009 Return: 7/19/2009 and 7/19/2009 I could probably hack something together that would work most of the time... but why reinvent the wheel if some poor shlub has already done it. If such a thing doesn't exist... then I'm considering an algorithm like such... (and advice... yays and nays are appreciated) Replace the names (and variations thereof) of the months with their numeric equivilants followed by a comma. So the above would become... 7, 19-22, 2009 7, 19th and 20th 9, 19, 2009 - 9, 22, 2009 7, 19th, 2009 7/19/2009 Then replace all the th and nd and st with nothing... replace all the ands with a dash... and eliminate spaces... and change / to , Giving... 7,19-22,2009 7,19-20 9,19,2009-9,22,2009 7,19,2009 7,19,2009 Then explode on commas. If you have two elements populate the third with the current year. (This "fixes" 7,19-20 to 7,19-20,2009). Not a given example, but it would also fix 7/19 to 7,19,2009. When you have three elements then you have a "valid" date. Loop over each element and populate begin and end, if you find a dash in the current element then split on the dash and populate as needed. Yes this would allow 7-8,19-20,2009 to create 7/19/2009 and 8/20/2009 but I think its as safe as any assumption that "regular people" wouldn't enter that as a date range. If you have more than three elements then split on the dash and as long as you have have only two elements then consider each item by itself. If it's not handled by the above rules then don't split it up. Thanks in advance. Matt -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

This should work for you.

Ok having re-read the preg_split manual page and now found a nice crib sheet
for 'pattern' I can understand that. Although it is not obvious from the
manual what gets returned if there are two comma's or spaces. I would have
expected I think that everything after the second match would be lost? As you
only asked to return the first 2 strings, but the last string does contain all
the remaining characters :) ( There is a note about it in the comments, but it
would be nice to include that sort of fine detail in the main explanation.
I've already found the other problem with this simple search selection.
Originally I just wanted to do "Jones,A" and the above would work fine. But
some customers said 'We are used to "Jones A" in X - can you do that'. Of
cause anything is possible in software, hence the original question, except
where they have actually typed 'JONES A' as the Surname ;)

The entered data is names, but I need to split the text up to the
first space or comma into one string, and the rest of the string into
a second. It's the 'first either space or comma' that eludes me at the
moment :(
In know it's probably obvious, but it always is when you know the answer.
$myString = "John Doe";
$pos = strpos($myString, " ") < strpos($myString, ",") ?
strpos($myString, " ") : strpos($myString, ",");
Suggest the following as being more efficient (half the strpos calls)...
$pos = min(strpos($myString, " "), strpos($myString, ","));

This is fine as long as there's precisely three escape sequences in the
string; if there's an arbitrary number, that won't work. I've posted
another solution already using preg_match_all() that will.

Re: [PHP] Split command problem
I guess you are trying to create an array by the name 'name' and assign two
elements to it by calling name($fname, $lname). Am I correct?
I think it does not work that way. Try list($fname, $lname) = ..
Then the variable $fname and $lname will contain the first and last names.
list($fname, $lname) = split('[/\s+/]', "$_POST[username]");

split() probably uses POSIX regex and hence knows nothing about '\s'. Use
preg_split() instead:
list($fname, $lname) = preg_split('/\s+/', $_POST['username']);

Where is your 'name' function and what does it do?
I'd do:
$name = explode( ' ', $_POST[ 'username' ] );
echo "First Name: $name[0] Last Name: $name[1]";

From your first post, you just want to remove everything after a
certain occurrence. I don't understand why explode won't work for you.
As in,
twothreefourfive';
$nthPos = 4;
$tmpArr = explode( '', $string );
$newArr = array_slice($tmpArr,0,$nthPos-1);
$shortString = implode('',$newArr);
?>
A function that would give you the position to truncate from would be
shorter. But, I don't seem to be finding that function either. So, the
above seems like a solution.

The following should get you going:
function strpos_nth( $hay, $needle, $n=1 )
{
$offset = -1;
if( $n < 1 )
{
return false;
}
while( $n-- > 0 )
{
if( ($offset = strpos( $hay, $needle, $offset + 1 )) === false )
{
return false;
}
}
return $offset;
}
Cheers,
Rob.

Re: [PHP] Split haystack at nth occurrence of needle?
Hi
if you want the *rest of the string from the nth *, I think
'preg_match_all' with PREG_OFFSET_CAPTURE can help you (see
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.preg-match-all.php)
You could do something like:
$string = "onetwothreefourfive";
$count = preg_match_all('/([^<]+)/', $string, $out,
PREG_OFFSET_CAPTURE);
and you will have an array of 2 arrays, where the first one contains the
full pattern matches and the second one contains arrays for each string
matched *and the starting offset* of that string.
Therefore, to know where the 2nd ends (so we would get 'three') all you
have to do is:
$out[1][1][1] => 14
Just my .2 euros...

Would explode() provide the same technique?
$var = "a,";
$results = explode(",", $var);
$results[0] = a;

RE: [PHP] split behaviour differences in perl and php
PHP's string manipulation functions (such as split()) are not guaranteed to
behave exactly like in PERL. The functions that are prefixed by 'preg_' are
(PERL REG (EX)) guaranteed to some extent and well documented where preg_
functions are not PERL compliant.
So, its not a bug, its just PHP being its own language.

split in php isn't the same as perl's split, there is preg_split()
which you can use:
$results = preg_split('/,/','a,', -1, PREG_SPLIT_NO_EMPTY);
print(count($results)); // outputs: 1

If your expand your example slightly, as I did, you will see why you are
getting the expected results:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] burhan $ cat s1.php
$results = split(',','a,');
print_r($results);
print count($results)."\n";
?>

[0] => a

(
[0] => a
[1] =>

As you can see, the array contains an empty second element because
(correctly) there isn't a second element after the last ,.
So, is this a bug? Not from my point of view. Its more bad input,
expected result :)

[PHP] Split a string on a space, not in side an HTML tag.
Hi, I'm trying to get a 500 character split of a string, I only want about the fist 500 characters, I would like to split on a space, which I have managed to do so far, but I would also like the split to not take place inside an HTML tag, so that I don't end up with weird looking pages. I was trying to use strip_tags() error checking to tell me whether I my string was valid html or not. If it's not valid html then I would like to split before that part of the html begins. Possibly even as simply as removing the last 10 characters (to the nearest space) until I get valid HTML. Can anyone help me get a way to split my text at around the 500 character mark without breaking any HTML which may be inside the string I am displaying on the page? Also, if you're interested in the strip_tags() problem I was speaking about then take a look at: http://better.domain.name/php/strip.php there is a link to the source on the page.

Re: [PHP] split()
thanx for the help. i got it. when i saw what happened when i put the + at
the end i found what i needed.
split('[.!?] ', $data)
this way it only breaks them up if the . or ! or ? is followed by a space.
thanx again for the help.

Maybe you could explode on a period followed by a space? I wouldn't think
split is necessary here.
Hope that helps.

Hi,
Thanks, that worked like a charm. I didn't realize that | was a special
character, that's good to know. I also agree with the explode method.
Seems quicker. Thanks!

The | character is a special character in regular expressions, which split()
expects. So, you can use
split("\|",$line)
which escapes the | character.
Although, since you're not really using a regular expression, you'd be
better off (more efficient) to just use
explode('|',$line)
and have the same effect.

My php version doesn't seem to support the flags, and I want to know
which delimiter the string was splitted by.

Two things you can do to make displaying such data in a browser: 1) if you're trying to display text that has HTML entities in it, within a HTML page, use the htmlentities() function when printing output. http://www.php.net/htmlentities 2) if you don't care about HTML at all, send a Content-type header that tells the browser what you're sending is text. header( "Content-type: text/plain" ); g.luck, ~Chris -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] split() - not working in this case
I have a string
$to = " abcd <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, efgh <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>" ;
I want a function returning an array of
indivial names+mailids like from the $to seperated by ","
something like
$tos[0] = "abcd <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>";
$tos[1] = "efgh <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>";
Now split() in the following function*** is notworking as needed.
ie, I'm getting
$tos[0] = "abcd";
$tos[1] = "efgh";
Not the complete name + ,
Why ?
/Chandu

function split_addresses($addr) {
$ad = array();
$ad = split(",",$addr);
return $ad;

[PHP] split/join error
Hi,
I have saved an email as text-file, and want to get header and body out of
the file!
(header and body are seperated by the first empty line!)
so I do:
list($header,$body)=split("\n\n",join('',file($FILE)),2);
then I need the body's lines as array:
$body=split("\n",$body);
but this line gives me a timeout for large files!!!
(I also tried $x=split("\n",$body);$body=$x;)
But I don't understand why!!!
because file($FILE) doesn't return an error, although there are more
array-elements created as with the split of $body!
any ideas???
thanks

Correction:

$count = $count/2;
$count = round($count,0);

Re: Re[2]: [PHP] split array in 2 halfs
You may find this helpful:
$arr = array('a','b','c','d','e');
$second_half = array_splice($arr,floor(sizeof($arr)/2));
print_r($arr); // Array ( [0] => a [1] => b )
print_r($second_half); // Array ( [0] => c [1] => d [2] => e )
In the above, $second_half will be one larger then $arr if the number
of elements is odd, otherwise they'll be equally sized halves. Using
ceil() as opposed to floor() will make $second_half the smaller of the
two.

Philip Olson

You could also grab the midpoint of the array:
$count = round(count($array), 0);
then populate your new arrays by using a foreach loop:
$x = 0;
foreach($array as $key => $value) {
if ($x <=$count) {
$array1[] = $value;
} else {
$array2[] = $value;
}
$x++;

Re: Re[3]: [PHP] split array in 2 halfs
Don't forget that you should clear out that memory space, especially if it's an array of arrays or an array of objects or something along those lines: unset($bigarray); Just good programming practice, that's all. I doubt it would ever be a problem on today's servers, but it's still a good idea.
