How To Return Just First-line From A Multi-line String Of Text?
I've been looking through the manual for string commands, and I haven't had success in determining the proper call for this, if there is one:

Let's say I have a text string with hard-carriage returns in it:

"The lazy brown fox ran down the road
to the store and bought some eggs
to bake a cake and serve dinner
for all his friends."

So if that string value is in "x", how can I tell it to return JUST the first line: "The lazy brown fox ran down the road"

Split Text Into Batches With Line Breaks?
I have a textarea and all I had to do is split the text into 50 chars and feed the lines to another app. No problem. But I forgot about line breaks. If someone puts linebreak I have to also make that a seperate line. Here's my current code ($content is the original text). I'm sure there is an easy way I just can't get to it.

$div = strlen($content) / 50;
$x=0;
while ($x<$div) {
$substr=$x*50;
$text = substr($content,$substr,50);
if (trim($text)!="") {
echo $text . "<br>";
}
$x++;
}

I'm looking for a way to make a simple multi line text box in PHP. I am trying to make a text box a couple thousand characters log. but when i try to create it, it just makes a very long text box. I can't seem to find any information on how to make that a multi line box. I don't care if you can use line returns or not.

Carriage Returns In Multi - Line Text Field To Csv To Excel
I've got an html form, processed by php that writes to a csv text file that I would like opened in excel. Problem is that I have a multi-line text field that users are submitting hard returns in that excel looks at as new records. How can I have the php ignore the hard returns within the abstract multi-line text field? I know NOTHING about php for the record! It's the $abstract value that is causing the issue...

PHP Code:
<?php
if(isset($_POST['Submit'])){
$oral = $_POST['oral'];
$poster = $_POST['poster'];
$either = $_POST['either'];
$name = $_POST['name'];
$affiliation = $_POST['affiliation'];
[Code]...

Processing Data From Multiple Multi-line Textareas Into A Multi-dimensional Array
I know that this sounds like something overly complex - because it is.
However, if I can keep the user interface the way it is, my users will
be ultra happy! That is the goal...

In general, this is an inventory receiving piece of an overall larger
web-based ERP system.

What I have is a form in which I have a dynamic number of multline
textareas for inputting (possibly barcode scanning in) many serial
numbers per line item recieved.

For example:
lineitem01 = widget01; qtyReceived = 2;
lineitem02 = widget02; qtyReceived = 3;
lineitem03 = widget03; qtyReceived = 10;

This would display a form that will generate 3 textarea elements (1
per lineitem received). Inside each textarea element will be input the
serial numbers for each of the widgets received per lineitem. i.e. 2
serial numbers will be entered for widget01; 3 for widget02; and 10
for widget03;

So, what I am trying to do is pass this data over, possibly as a multi-
dimensional array to another form ( or possibly $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] ) to update a MySQL database to store the widget/serial numbers.

Transform A String From Multi-Line To Single-Line?
Is there a PHP string function that transforms a multi-line string into a single-line string?

I'm getting some data back from an API that contains multiple lines. For example:

<p>Some Data</p>
<p>Some more Data</p>
<p>Even More Data</p>

I assign that data to a variable, then echo the variable as part/"cell" of a CSV document.

It's breaking my CSV document. Instead of all content showing in one cell (when viewing in OpenOffice Calc), it shows in multiple cells and rows. It should be contained within one cell.

I would like to transform the string into:

<p>Some Data</p><p>Some more Data</p><p>Even More Data<p>

Multi Line String To Single Line?
I am using JSON to fetch html from a PHP script - cross domain. Thus I am not using traditional AJAX techniques which only work within the same domain.

Becuase of the use of JSON, which does not allow multi-line strings, I need some way of formatting the string in PHP and returning at as a single line e.g.

Before

PHP Code:

$string = "This is a Multi-line string that spans over several lines and needs changing to a single line"; 

After

PHP Code:

$string = "This is a Multi-line string that spans over several lines and and needs changing to a single line"; 

I cannot leave the original string on a single line because there are many lines of html and my non technical client will edit it regularly.

Split The Line Only At First Occurrence Of Character ':'?
This may be a lame question but I am a total novice with regular expressions. I have some text data in the format: Company Name: Name of the company, place. Company Address: Some address, here. Link: [URL] Now, I want to use a regex to split these into an array of name : value pairs. The regular expression I am trying is /(.*):(.*)/ with preg_match_all() and it does work well with the first two lines but on the third line it returns "Link: http:" in one part and "//[URL] in other. So, is there any way to split the line only at the first occurrence of the character ':'?

Put String In Array Split By New Line?
I have a string, with line breaks in my database.

I want to put that string in an array, and for every new line, jump one index place in the array.

If the string is:

"My text1(here is a line break)My text2(here is a line break)My text3"

The result I want is this:

array[0] = "My text1"
array[1] = "My text2"
array[2] = "My text3

Split A Line Into Several Array Elements?
let a user upload a text file, and have the in the upload process grab the file and programatically search for keywords I specify. The script then counts how many times the word is found and outputs the entire line that it was found in into an array.

So the example results returns this when using this code:

$sceneINT = $sf->countKeyWord('INT', $file);

with my class looking like so:
public static function countKeyWord($word, $file){
if(!$word)
return NULL;
$contents = file_get_contents($file);

[Code]...

All that will go into 1 row in the database, I don't know how to approach this. How can I take the result and split into what I need and then send it to the database so that ALL items found are stored when the user presses the SAVE button.

Function To Split An Array At Each Blank Line?
I'm building a script which will open a saved text file, export the contents to an array and then dump the contents in a database. So far I've been able to get the file upload working quite happily and can also open said file.

The trouble I'm having is the contents of the file are variable, they have a fixed structure but the contents will change every time. The structure of the file is that each "section" is seperated by a blank line.

I've used php's file() to get an array ... I'm not sure if there's a way to then split that array up every time it comes across a blank line?

$file = $target_path;
$data = file($file) or die('Could not read file!');

Example output:

[0] => domain.com
[1] => # Files to be checked
[2] => /www/06.php
[3] => /www/08.php

[Code]....

I know that Field 0 and 1 will be constants, they will always be a domain name then that hash line. The lines thereafter could be anywhere between 1 line and 1000 lines.

I've looked at array_chunk() which is close to what I want but it works on a numerical value, what would be good if there was something which would work on a specified value (like a new line, or a comma or something of that sort!).

Regex Split String At First Line Break
I would like to split a string at the first line break, instead of the first blank line

'/^(.*?)
?
?
(.*)/s' (first blank line)

So for instance, if I have:

$str = '2099 test Are you sure you want to continue some other string here...';

match[1] = '2099 test' match[2] = 'Are you sure you want to continue some other string here...'

Multi-Line Ereg_replace?
Hi everyone,

I am extremely new to PHP and I was wondering if I could ask y'all a question...

I'm trying to use ereg_replace() to replace a block of html code in a page. The problem is that the code is on serveral lines. Basically, it looks like this:

<tr>
<td align="center"><font size="1" face="Verdana" color="#666666">Text goes here</font></td>
</tr>

There's one space in front on the first and last line, and two spaces on the second line... I tried using and s to symbolize the newlines and spaces, but it doesn't work... I also tried chr(013) and chr(010) - same thing. Any ideas? Can I just surround the whole thing in quotes and have it multi-lined that way?

Search Text Document (.txt) Grab Entire Line And The Line Number
I'm trying to create a php script which searches a text file for specific text. A person types in the specific text within a HTML form and the php script should search for that specific text within the text file.

The value of the input field of the HTML form is "username" and within the php document, the variable "$username" is the entered data, example shown below:

$username = $_POST['username'];

The text file below is called "rank_order.txt":

7 AULLAH1
13 SupremeGamer
13 AULLAH1
15 abc123

If a person types into the HTML form "AULLAH1", I'd like the php script to grab the first "AULLAH1" entry in the text file (e.g. It should grab the first line and not the thrid, as the first line is the first entry to contain the text "AULLAH1"). Also with that, when a person types in a specific text, it shouldn't simply grab the document or the text, it should grab the whole line: "7 AULLAH1" and place it into a php variable, maybe something like "$grabbed"? If possible at all.

Also with that, if it grabs the data from line 3, could a php variable represent line 3? If the data is grabbed from line 23, again could a php variable represent line 23 (and if it's grabbed from line 1, could a php variable hold the number 1? etc...)

Read In Text File Line By Line - Newline Not Being Detected?
I have a php function I wrote that will take a text file and list each line as its own row in a table.The problem is the classic "works fine on my machine", but of course when I ask somebody else to generate the .txt file I am looking for, it keeps on reading in the whole file as 1 line. When I open it in my text editor, it looks just as how I would expect it with a new name on each line, but its the newline character or something throwing it off.So far I have come to the conclusion it might have something to do with whatever text editor they are using on their Mac system.Does this make sense? and is there any easy way to just detect this character that the text editor is recognizing as a new line and replace it with a standard one that php will recognize?UPDATE: Adding the following line solved the issue.

ini_set('auto_detect_line_endings',true);

Function:

function displayTXTList($fileName) {
if(file_exists($fileName)) {
$file = fopen($fileName,'r');

Mailer Doesn't Like Multi-line Input
I wrote a little php mailer script which has been working fine up to now, with all types of form input.

I have made a form where the form input has gone into a mysql database, and I am making a page which takes it out again and sends it to the mailer script. This works fine until I try to take the multi-line address out of the db, which makes it all hang and mail not get sent.

I am confused because the mailer works fine with multi-line input straight from a form, but not from the db.

It works on the first line of text fine, and loops through all the other lines and 'fputs' them as well with no errors, but doesn't operate on the price like with the first line. all i can see is that my $line array keeps adding to the end instead of resetting.. i tried using reset and unset, but wasn't working either, was probably doing it wrong.. am i missing something obvious?

Echo Multi-line Textbox Variable
I have a form that allows users to enter notes into a large textbox. After the form is submitted, the contents of the textbox are echoed out into a report. Below is an example of an entry:

These are my notes.
These notes doe not make any sense
but it gets the point across.

When I echo out this entry as a variable, the entry looks like this:

These are my notes. These notes doe not make any sense but it gets the point across.

I need to keep all of the notes just as they were entered on multiple lines. Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?
