Thanks, I've created a delimited file of all the HTML Character references. I then loop through and do a replace as previously suggested. However, IE's XML Parser still doesn't like the é which represents é For all intents and purposes it's ok and works with the RDF processor. However, I'd like

Re: [PHP] Stripping characters.....

Clarification: So really, what you want to achieve is to ONLY have the email address? I'm POSITIVE there's a better way with ereg_replace(), but I haven't got time to experiment, and i'm no expert :) So, what I figured was that you would loop through the $email, and if the first char wasn't a "<

RE: [PHP] Stripping the first line of a file

Thanks Jerry! In perl I was doing this: printf NEW ("%-193.193s"); Which I just read the manual and discovered it works in PHP as well. Basically prints 193 spaces to make sure the line is 255 after I filled the line with other characters. On Fri, 8 Feb 2002, Jerry Verhoef (UGBI) wrote

RE: [PHP] Stripping the first line of a file

Thank you! Works. I have a few more questions! I am working on converting a program from perl to PHP as it is the new language of choice at our office. I have been using printf statements in perl to format data. Is there a similar funtion in php? Here is an example from the perl program:

Re: [PHP] Stripping slashes from db-insert?

Addslashes() is probably getting called twice on the data on the insert... if you have magic_gpc on, any inputted data already has the necessary escapes - so you shouldnt need to call it again... Hope that helped :) -- Shane On Saturday 01 Dec 2001 1:14 pm, Daniel Alsén wrote: > Hi, > > i kn
