[PHP] slicing and dicing strings
ok, it slices and dices, but how? in python, to print all but the last char in string FOO, we say print FOO[:-1] But this seems to bark like a basset hound in php. Whyfore?

One more little thing:
These notices:
Notice: Undefined index: subject in

on line 23 Notice: Undefined index: elvismail in
/Library/WebServer/Documents/examples/ch03/final/makemeelvis/sendemail.php
show up because you are processing form fields in $_POST when there
might not be any yet.
These lines:
$from = 'bluethu...@jokefire.com';
$subject = $_POST['subject'];
$text = $_POST['elvismail'];
$output_form = false;
Should appear *after* this line:
if (isset($_POST['Submit'])) {
You should also check the $_POST entries for 'subject' and 'elvismail'
to make sure they are set to avoid the notices, even if you do move
them after the submit check. You never know!

Whyfore? As said, PHP is not Python. Pretty much *nothing* else is Python. That said, the trope still has legs in PHP: From http://us2.php.net/manual/en/function.substr.php : If start is negative, the returned string will start at the start'th character from the end of string. Now tihs tyro is seeking sage words to help me understand this. RTFM is not sage words; if you don't want to help me please don't waste the bandwidth. RTFM with no hint of where to look is a problem. But the dictum of Read here in the manual will surely be the best thing. You will then know where to look for future questions. Would anyone care to help me understand this without dedicating 4 precious and in over demand/under supply hours to RTFM? You may not have 4 precious and overdemanded/undersupplied hours, but at some point everyone who can answer this has had to slog through the manual; we haven't just been lounging in our opulence pouring over the documentation out of some need to aleviate our boredom. Nor is anyone on this list to spend their time providing answers which *are* readily available with just a bit of google-fu. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] Can I do this in a single match/replace?

Using preg_match and this pattern I can get the refs: $pattern = '\reference:url,([^;]+;)\'; which gives me: $matches[0] = www.ndmp.org/download/sdk_v4/draft-skardal-ndmp4-04.txt $matches[1] = doc.emergingthreats.net/bin/view/Main/2002068 now what I would like to do is replace inline adding a href=http://; . $matches[n] . . $matches[n] . /a Can this be done or do I need to say loop through matches (there can be none or many) and do a str_replace.
