PHP Form Input Filtering

vareside — Wed, 18 Nov 2009 16:44:09 GMT

Howdy,

I just have a small problem on one of my latest, small projects (EYC). We have the following situation: User enters a page, sees a form, pastes the Embed Code into a

and clicks on the "Proceed" button. Now: how can I filter out a specific part from the embed code?<br />
<br />
Example - this is the embed code the user enters/pastes in:<div style="margin:20px; margin-top:5px">
	<div class="smallfont" style="margin-bottom:2px">Code:</div>
	<hr /><code style="margin:0px" dir="ltr" style="text-align:left"><param name="movie" value="http://www.megavideo.com/v/Z12IQXAL46215bbe9383"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param></object></code><hr />
</div>Now I want to fetch ONLY<br />
<a href="http://www.megavideo.com/v/Z12IQXAL46215bbe9383" target="_blank">http://www.megavideo.com/v/Z12IQXAL46215bbe9383</a><br />
from the code. BUT the embed codes may variee on positions like width, height etc. How can I filter out the part between <param name="movie" value=" and "></param> or src=" " ?<br />
<br />
I'd be very thankful for every single suggestion.</div>

<h1>PHP File read and write</h1>

<div>Hi folks,<br />
<br />
I wanna know how to use PHP to read write a txt or csv file. In the text file, it should look like the following way:<br />
<div style="margin:20px; margin-top:5px">
	<div class="smallfont" style="margin-bottom:2px">Code:</div>
	<hr /><code style="margin:0px" dir="ltr" style="text-align:left">Linktext | http://www.vareside.com/<br />
Other Linktext | http://google.com/<br />
Another Linktext | http://search.yahoo.com/</code><hr />
</div>This should be read and shown in the source code of the PHP file as following:<br />
<div style="margin:20px; margin-top:5px">
	<div class="smallfont" style="margin-bottom:2px">Code:</div>
	<hr /><code style="margin:0px" dir="ltr" style="text-align:left"><a href="http://www.vareside.com/">Linktext</a><br><br />
<a href="http://google.com/">Other Linktext</a><br><br />
<a href="http://search.yahoo.com/">Another Linktext</a><br></code><hr />
</div>Then there should be new lines with new linktexts and URL's addable using PHP in the same structure. How to do all that?</div>

<h1>CodeIgniter</h1>

<div>I was wondering if anyone has used the recent verison of <a href="http://codeigniter.com/" target="_blank">CodeIgniter</a> php framework. I haven't used it since V1.0 and haven't had the need to code much php in awhile.<br />
 <br />
I liked the ability to store and reuse code, plus change code in multiple locations all at once, small libraries and no command line. Does it still have a small footprint or has it grown sluggish? Any limitations or constraints? Does it still speed up code generation and execution?<br />
 <br />
Pros - Cons<br />
Usability - Easability<br />
Like - Dislike<br />
 <br />
If any one has any comments I would like to here them.<br />
 <br />
Thanks ishkey :)</div>

<h1>Meta Search Engine</h1>
<p>vareside — Thu, 22 Oct 2009 18:12:35 GMT</p>
<div>Hi folks,<br />
<br />
I want to let my users search on different search engines simultaniously. Therefore I need a meta search engine but ... how to create one? I'm thankful for every single little script snippet. Of course, I'll mention, credit and thank those of you in the imprints of my website, who helped to build it.<br />
<br />
Sincerely,<br />
Max</div>
