 |
|
How can i search a page and remove certain words from it?
for example if a website contains control panel its replaced with *ontrol *anel
I tried this, but it dosn't work: | Code: | <?php
// The text string
$url = readfile ("http://www.abysspanel.co.uk/");
// The word we want to replace
$oldWord = "control panel";
// The new word we want in place of the old one
$newWord = "*ontrol *panel";
// Run through the text and replaces all occurrences of $oldText
$url = str_replace($oldWord , $newWord , $url);
// Display the new text
echo $url
?> |

Try not using readfile, because readfile also prints the output too I believe.
| Code: | | $url = file("http://www.abysspanel.co.uk/"); |

some better code...
| Code: |
<?php
// The word we want to replace
$oldWord = 'control panel';
// The new word we want in place of the old one
$newWord = '*ontrol *panel';
// The text string
$oldWord=preg_replace('/ +/','\s',&$oldWord);
foreach(file('http://www.abysspanel.co.uk/') as $url)
echo preg_replace('/'.$oldWord.'/i',$newWord,&$url);
?> |

| Readfile only returns true or false depending on if the file was read or not. Try using fopen instead. Not sure if it will work though... |
