smileys url issue

[Seraphic]

Script URL: Will PM it to admin if needed
Version of script: 1.35
Version of PHP: Not Needed
Hosting company: Not Needed
Have you searched THIS FORUM for your problem: Yes

The smileys show up fine in the pop-up window, but in posts they don't show up. I can't get the location to be correct.

Coming up as "/layout/images/rotflol.gif"
Should be "/content/guestbook/rotflol.gif

I edited these in gbook.php with the new url but it didn't help.

Code: Select all

$text = str_replace(':)','<img src="images/icon_smile.gif" border="0" alt="">',$text);
$text = str_replace(':(','<img src="images/icon_frown.gif" border="0" alt="">',$text);
$text = str_replace(':D','<img src="images/icon_biggrin.gif" border="0" alt="">',$text);
$text = str_replace(';)','<img src="images/icon_wink.gif" border="0" alt="">',$text);
$text = preg_replace("/\:o/i",'<img src="images/icon_redface.gif" border="0" alt="">',$text);
$text = preg_replace("/\:p/i",'<img src="images/icon_razz.gif" border="0" alt="">',$text);
$text = str_replace(':cool:','<img src="images/icon_cool.gif" border="0" alt="">',$text);
$text = str_replace(':rolleyes:','<img src="images/icon_rolleyes.gif" border="0" alt="">',$text);
$text = str_replace(':mad:','<img src="images/icon_mad.gif" border="0" alt="">',$text);
$text = str_replace(':eek:','<img src="images/icon_eek.gif" border="0" alt="">',$text);
$text = str_replace(':clap:','<img src="images/yelclap.gif" border="0" alt="">',$text);
$text = str_replace(':bonk:','<img src="images/bonk.gif" border="0" alt="">',$text);
$text = str_replace(':chased:','<img src="images/chased.gif" border="0" alt="">',$text);
$text = str_replace(':crazy:','<img src="images/crazy.gif" border="0" alt="">',$text);
$text = str_replace(':cry:','<img src="images/cry.gif" border="0" alt="">',$text);
$text = str_replace(':curse:','<img src="images/curse.gif" border="0" alt="">',$text);
$text = str_replace(':err:','<img src="images/errr.gif" border="0" alt="">',$text);
$text = str_replace(':livid:','<img src="images/livid.gif" border="0" alt="">',$text);
$text = str_replace(':rotflol:','<img src="images/rotflol.gif" border="0" alt="">',$text);
$text = str_replace(':love:','<img src="images/love.gif" border="0" alt="">',$text);
$text = str_replace(':nerd:','<img src="images/nerd.gif" border="0" alt="">',$text);
$text = str_replace(':nono:','<img src="images/nono.gif" border="0" alt="">',$text);
$text = str_replace(':smash:','<img src="images/smash.gif" border="0" alt="">',$text);
$text = str_replace(':thumbsup:','<img src="images/thumbup.gif" border="0" alt="">',$text);
$text = str_replace(':toast:','<img src="images/toast.gif" border="0" alt="">',$text);
$text = str_replace(':welcome:','<img src="images/welcome.gif" border="0" alt="">',$text);
$text = str_replace(':ylsuper:','<img src="images/ylsuper.gif" border="0" alt="">',$text);

This is the only issue i'm having. Any help would be great. Thanks

All your smileys should be inside "images" folder (when extracting gbook.zip file make sure you have "Use folder names" checked!).

For example the demo GBook is located at
www.phpjunkyard.com/gbook/gbook.php
yet images are in the
www.phpjunkyard.com/gbook/images/rotflol.gif

PM me the gbook URL if that isn't the problem.

Hi,

Everything is on the server. But for some reason it won't get the right url for emoticons in posts. PM Sent.

Thanks

[Klemen]

It's because of the paths and calling from your own main.php with query string you use.

For example simleys work if you open GBook directly:
http://YOURDOMAIN.COM/content/guestbook/gbook.php

You can try changing image URLs to

Code: Select all

$text = str_replace(':)','<img src="../images/icon_smile.gif" border="0" alt="">',$text); 

(note ../ added before images) or use the full URL for images. for example:
http://YOURDOMAIN.COM/content/guestbook ... otflol.gif

Hi,

That also didn't work and and adding the full URL doesn't work as well.

Either way it's still thinking the images are at "/layout/images/livid.gif"

Anything else I could try?

Thanks

[Klemen]

Your images are currently pointing to
http://YOURDOMAIN.COM/layout/images/icon_eek.gif
and that of course doesn't work.

Use the FULL URL, like this one:
http://YOURDOMAIN.COM/content/guestbook ... on_eek.gif

It must work 100%, it also works if you open that URL in your browsers.

IMPORTANT NOTE
Your old post will still have broken images, delete it and post a NEW POST to test the correct URL!

[Seraphic]

Well, damn. All those URL changes I did would have worked.

I guess I thought the old post would auto update the image address. It didn't and that was why nothing was working.

Thank for the help
