Converting a date format, simply and quickly.
<?php function reverseDate($dateIn){ list($year,$month,$day) = explode('-',$dateIn); return "$month/$day/$year"; } ?> |
This function is used on my own site : http://www.maggsweb.co.uk
Version them in their with their timestamp. This way, when they change, the link will change and the browser will reload the sitemap… Otherwise it will be fine to be cached as it wont have changed.
<link type='text/css' src='/styles/styles.css?v=<?=filemtime(DOC_ROOT."/styles_ie.css")?>' /> |
How to resubmit generated sitemaps automatically (using cron) or on an event (like re-generation of the sitemap).
<?php pingSE(urlencode($url),'google'); pingSE(urlencode($url),'bing'); pingSE(urlencode($url),'ask'); ?> |
And the function goodiness….
<?php function pingSE($sitemap,$service){ switch ($service) { case 'bing': $ping = "http://www.bing.com/webmaster/ping.aspx?siteMap=$sitemap"; break; case 'ask': $ping = "http://submissions.ask.com/ping?sitemap=$sitemap"; break; case 'google': $ping = "http://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/ping?sitemap=$sitemap"; break; default: return false; } $curl_handle=curl_init(); curl_setopt($curl_handle,CURLOPT_URL,$ping); curl_setopt($curl_handle,CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT,2); curl_setopt($curl_handle,CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1); $run = curl_exec($curl_handle); $response = curl_getinfo($curl_handle); curl_close($curl_handle); if ($response['http_code'] == 200){ echo "Sitemap successfully submitted"; } } ?> |
Easy way of switching between mysql and “normal” dates (english, not american)…
<?php function flipdate($dt, $seperator_in = '-', $seperator_out = '-') { return implode($seperator_out, array_reverse(explode($seperator_in, $dt))); } ?> |
Haven’t actually used this one, but it does work…
<?php function size_format( $bytes, $decimals = null ) { $quant = array( // ========================= Origin ==== 'TB' => 1099511627776, // pow( 1024, 4) 'GB' => 1073741824, // pow( 1024, 3) 'MB' => 1048576, // pow( 1024, 2) 'kB' => 1024, // pow( 1024, 1) 'B ' => 1, // pow( 1024, 0) ); foreach ( $quant as $unit => $mag ) if ( doubleval($bytes) >= $mag ) return number_format_i18n( $bytes / $mag, $decimals ) . ' ' . $unit; return false; } ?> |
Never used ‘pathinfo’ before, but I can see its uses..
Personally, I would explode on the ‘/’, then on the ‘.’, etc…
//PATH INFO RETURNS: DIRNAME, BASENAME, EXTENSION, FILENAME FROM A PATH
$details = pathinfo('videos/file.flv');
//EXTRACT EXTENSION FROM THE DETAILS ARRAY CREATED BY PATH INFO
$extension = $details['extension'];
//PRINT THE EXTENSION OF THE FILE
echo($extension);
?>
This is my extension of an existing function, adatped for my requirements.
<?php function dumpr($VARIABLE_NAME, $DATA){ if (is_object($DATA)) { $data = (array) $DATA; } elseif (is_array($DATA)) { $data = $DATA; } else { $data = strval($DATA); } $output = "<table class='dumpr'>"; $output .= "<head>"; $output .= "<tr>"; $output .= "<th colspan='2'>" . $VARIABLE_NAME . "</th>"; $output .= "</tr>"; $output .= "</head><body>"; if (is_array($data)){ foreach ($data as $key => $value) { //$value = dumpr($key, $value); $output .= "<tr>"; $output .= "<td>$key</td>"; $output .= "<td>$value</td>"; $output .= "</tr>"; } } else { $output .= "<tr>"; $output .= "<td colspan=2>$data</td>"; $output .= "</tr>"; } $output .= "</body>"; $output .= "</table>"; return $output; } ?> |
Use like this:
echo dumpr(‘NAME’,$var);
echo dumpr(‘SESSION’,$_SESSION);
etc..
Displays a nicely formatted table, with values of a string / array / object clearly displayed.
Remove all non alpha-numeric characters from a string.
<?php function alphanumericAndSpace( $string ) { return preg_replace('/[^a-zA-Z0-9\s]/', '', $string); } ?> |
