[PHP] get_meta_tags bug?
Hi, The php function 'get_meta_tags' doesn't work when the meta tag name/ content values are single quoted. It's fine for double quotes. I've had a look but can't find anything on the w3 site to say whether or not double quotes are required in meta tags. Does anyone know what the rule is? (php v 4.04pl1, apache, linux 2.2.18) All the best -- Paul -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Thanks very much. Out of interest, why do you recommend the use of double quotes? It's so much easier to use single quotes in these sort of cases: echo "\n"; rather than: echo "\n"; or: echo '' . "\n"; ...and according to this: http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/intro/sgmltut.html#h-3.2.2 ... double, single, and (sometimes) no quotes are all acceptable.

Hi, Try something like: query ($sql))) handle_db_error ($result); else $resultArray = $result -> fetchRow (DB_FETCHMODE_ASSOC); $db_con -> commit(); if ($db_con && (! $usePersistentConnects)) $db_con -> disconnect(); ?> I hope the line wraps still leave the above readable. I made a separate function of my own, handle_db_error (), to handle errors - you might like to do something like: echo DB::errorMessage($result); ... instead. I recommend putting all the db connection stuff in a file which resides outside of the document root and including it where you need it. The following links may prove useful - the user comments in the phpbuilder article were particularly helpful in pointing me in the right direction. http://cvs.php.net/viewcvs.cgi/php4/pear/DB/ http://www.phpdoc.de/pear/index2.html http://www.phpbuilder.com/columns/allan20010115.php3 http://pear.php.net http://www.php.net/manual/en/pear.php All the best, -- Paul Rees Web Application Programmer/Developer surfEU.com GmbH -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
