How to explode a string and create hyperlink?

1 Reply

Here is very easy code to create Tagged List with hyperlink.
I have found several events where we have to create dynamic URL with Tagged text.
I have used very simple approach. Just Exploded sting and replaced space with “-”
You can use PHP function preg_replace() or str_replace() then used here-docs for creating hyperlink.
Instead of Echo Hear Docs is much better solution.
And at last removed the last Comma, and return your comma separated Dynamic links.

$tags = "jQuery Tutorials, PHP Display Errors, Drupal Module";
$tagL="";
function b2b_article_LinkedTags($stringTags) {
	$expTags = explode(",",$stringTags);
	foreach($expTags as $key=>$Tagevalue) {
	$Tagevalue = trim($Tagevalue);
	$link = preg_replace('/[^-a-z0-9]/', '-', strtolower($Tagevalue) );
	//$link = str_replace(" ","-", strtolower($Tagevalue));
	$tagL.=<<$Tagevalue,
EOF;
	}
	
	return substr($tagL, 0, -1);
}  
echo b2b_article_LinkedTags($tags)

How to test HTTPS CURL in development server?

Leave a reply

HTTPS is secure HTTP communication based on SSL protocol (HTTP over SSL). Generally all sensitive info (like passwords, financial details, etc.) are sent over this transport. Common example: your gmail login is done through HTTPS channel and different payment gateway.
So here in this deal –

$postfields = array('field1'=>'value1', 'field2'=>'value2');
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, 'https://foo.com');
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $postFields);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, 0);
$result = curl_exec($ch);

CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST is off. This allows you to test the CURL in your dev server without having HTTPS. PHP/Curl will handle the http request.

How to post XML using socket ?

I had discussed posting XML over HTTP using CURL in last post. Remember that was first method.
As I had promised on earlier post I would like to share second method with you. That is socket!!
Use this code and send your XML file.

$result = postXMLtoURL("www.yourdomain.com", "/path/",$xmlpacket);

$responseBody = getBody($result);

echo $responseBody;

How to post XML using CURL?

49 Replies

Recently I was working in a hotel booking engine and found a couple of methods to post XML to server; I thought this might be good to share with my friends who want to post xml via HTTP POST method.

There are several ways to Send XML requests via HTTP POST.
I am going to show you two ways. Both are very simple and easy.

As first approach I have used a small xml file with CURL.


'.
    ''.
        '1234567890'.
        'lgsoftwares'.
        'mypassword'.
        'phpmind.com'.
    ''.
    ''.
        ''.
        ''.
    ''.
''.
'JHM'.
        'OGGSHE'.
        '101009'.
        '101509'.
        '1'.
  ''.  
  '';


$URL = "https://www.yourwebserver.com/path/";

			$ch = curl_init($URL);
			curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_MUTE, 1);
			curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, 0);
			curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, 0);
			curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
			curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array('Content-Type: text/xml'));
			curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, "$xml_data");
			curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
			$output = curl_exec($ch);
			curl_close($ch);

How to display certain number of words from a record?

Leave a reply

I got good php tutorial to display certain number of words from database; in place of Database record you can use any other regular string.

 300) {
$ext = "... read more";
} else {
$ext = "";
}
function elliStr($s,$n) {
for ( $x = 0; $x < strlen($s); $x++ ) {
$o = ($n+$x >= strlen($s)? $s : ($s{$n+$x} == " "?
substr($s,0,$n+$x) . "..." : ""));
if ( $o!= "" ) { return $o; }
}
}

echo (elliStr("$text", 300)) . $ext;
?>
