[PHP] Re: Question about string replace -PHP
I didn't ask the question about this, but I have a related issue. I'm
trying to do a replace, and am using str_replace, but the outcome is not
what I expected.
Here's my code:
?
$fp = fopen(new_data.csv, r);
$text = fopen(text.txt, r);
$merged = fopen(merged_text.html, w);
$filecontents = fread($text,filesize(text.txt));
while ($data = fgetcsv ($fp, 1000, ,)) {
$num = count ($data);
$fullname = $data[0] . ' ' . $data[1];
$newfullname = '123 ' . $fullname . ' 456';
$filecontents = str_replace($fullname, $newfullname, $filecontents);
}
fclose ($fp);
fwrite($merged,$filecontents);
fclose ($merged);
fclose ($text);
?
Here's the text file it's working on:
John Smith br
br
Peter Cooper br
br
Mike Brown br
br
Lisa Crow br
Here's the outcome:
123 123 John Smith 456 456 br
br
123 123 Peter Cooper 456 456 br
br
123 123 Mike Brown 456 456 br
br
123 123 Lisa Crow 456 456 br
I only want it to have one set of 123 and 456 on either side. Any ideas?

Re: [PHP] gobbling replace
Thanks Dan. It's really close now. But it's duplicating the text string at the
beginning and end of the replaces.
Here's the ouput:
1 This is a test of the templating program. br
2 Here's hoping it's working. br
3 br
4 br
5
6 123 123 John Smith 456 456br
7
8 123 123 Peter Lem 456 456 br
9
10 123 123 Shawn Adams 456 456 br
And here's the rewritten code:
1 ?
2 $fp = fopen(new_data.csv, r);
3 $text = fopen(text.txt, r);
4 $merged = fopen(merged_text.html, w);
5 $filecontents = fread($text,filesize(text.txt));
6 while ($data = fgetcsv ($fp, 1000, ,)) {
7 $num = count ($data);
8 $fullname = $data[0] . ' ' . $data[1];
9 $newfullname = '123 ' . $fullname . ' 456';
10 $filecontents = str_replace($fullname, $newfullname, $filecontents);
11 }
12 fclose ($fp);
13 fwrite($merged,$filecontents);
14 fclose ($merged);
15 fclose ($text);
16 ?
by the way, were you saying I don't need the fcloses?
Thanks!

by the way, I know it's horribly ugly to open and close the file in the
loop like that, but when it was outside the loop no changes were saved.
Put ALL of the fopen()'s AND fread()'s before the while loop.
Put ALL of the fwrite()'s AND (unnecessary) fclose()'s after the end of the while
loop.
The only thing you should be doing inside the loop is searching/replacing. The
while
aspect will automaticall bring up the next names to be searching for.
That for loop shouldn't be there...

6 123 123 123 123 123 123 John Smith 456 456 456 456 4
The odd replacement is due to the itterations for each record in the csv file caused
by mistakenly using that for loop. Ditch it.
Enjoy,

How about posting a sample row or two along with how you want the data to
appear after the transformation?

Re: [PHP] Re: file() and macintosh line break
I was having a tough time with a Mac file uploaded and squeezed into one line. My friend Shawn helped me write the following which cleans it up. Remove the echo statement to just change it and not see the change. Also, avoid trying to fix the file, make a new one, if you can. Hope this helps.

[PHP] replace strings in looped fgetcsv results
I have a text file with info and people's names in it. I have a csv file
with people's names in it. I want to open both, read the text file into
a variable, iterate through the csv file with fgetcsv and replace the
names in the text file with data from the csv file.
so, I have a csv file with fields first name, last name, url. I have the
text file with first name last name. I want the names linked and it
saved to a new file.
I've tried moving the writes around, the replaces, using different types
of replaces, etc. It's just not quite working out.
Here's what I have so far:
1 ?
2 $row = 1;
3
4 $text = fopen(text.txt, r);
5 $merged = fopen(merged_text.html, w);
6 $fp = fopen(new_data.csv, r);
7
8 $filecontents = fread($text,filesize(text.txt));
9
10 while ($data = fgetcsv ($fp, 1000, ,)) {
11 $num = count ($data);
12 $row++;
13 for ($c=0; $c $num; $c++) {
14 $fullname = $data[0] . . $data[1];
15 $newfullname = a
href=.$data[2]..$fullname./a;
16 $newfilecontents =
str_replace($fullname,$newfullname,$filecontents);
17
18 fwrite($merged,$newfilecontents);
19 }
20 }
21 echo nl2br($newfilecontents);
22 // fwrite($merged,$newfilecontents);
23 fclose ($fp);
24 fclose ($merged);
25 fclose ($text);
26 ?
Thanks!
