Useful for creating passwords or generating random hashes.</p> - -<p>The first parameter specifies the type of string, the second parameter specifies the length. The following choices are available:</p> - - alpha, alunum, numeric, nozero, unique, md5, encrypt and sha1 -<ul> - <li><strong>alpha</strong>: A string with lower and uppercase letters only.</li> - <li><strong>alnum</strong>: Alpha-numeric string with lower and uppercase characters.</li> - <li><strong>numeric</strong>: Numeric string.</li> - <li><strong>nozero</strong>: Numeric string with no zeros.</li> - <li><strong>unique</strong>: Encrypted with MD5 and uniqid(). Note: The length parameter is not available for this type. - Returns a fixed length 32 character string.</li> - <li><strong>sha1</strong>: An encrypted random number based on <kbd>do_hash()</kbd> from the <a href="security_helper.html">security helper</a>.</li> -</ul> - -<p>Usage example:</p> - -<code>echo random_string('alnum', 16);</code> - - -<h2>increment_string()</h2> - -<p>Increments a string by appending a number to it or increasing the number. Useful for creating "copies" or a file or duplicating database content which has unique titles or slugs.</p> - -<p>Usage example:</p> - -<code>echo increment_string('file', '_'); // "file_1"<br /> -echo increment_string('file', '-', 2); // "file-2"<br /> -echo increment_string('file-4'); // "file-5"<br /></code> - - -<h2>alternator()</h2> - -<p>Allows two or more items to be alternated between, when cycling through a loop. Example:</p> - -<code>for ($i = 0; $i < 10; $i++)<br /> -{<br /> - echo alternator('string one', 'string two');<br /> -}<br /> -</code> - -<p>You can add as many parameters as you want, and with each iteration of your loop the next item will be returned.</p> - -<code>for ($i = 0; $i < 10; $i++)<br /> -{<br /> - echo alternator('one', 'two', 'three', 'four', 'five');<br /> -}<br /> -</code> - -<p><strong>Note:</strong> To use multiple separate calls to this function simply call the function with no arguments to re-initialize.</p> - - - -<h2>repeater()</h2> -<p>Generates repeating copies of the data you submit. Example:</p> -<code>$string = "\n";<br /> -echo repeater($string, 30);</code> - -<p>The above would generate 30 newlines.</p> -<h2>reduce_double_slashes()</h2> -<p>Converts double slashes in a string to a single slash, except those found in http://. Example: </p> -<code>$string = "http://example.com//index.php";<br /> -echo reduce_double_slashes($string); // results in "http://example.com/index.php"</code> -<h2>trim_slashes()</h2> -<p>Removes any leading/trailing slashes from a string. Example:<br /> - <br /> - <code>$string = "/this/that/theother/";<br /> -echo trim_slashes($string); // results in this/that/theother</code></p> - - -<h2>reduce_multiples()</h2> -<p>Reduces multiple instances of a particular character occuring directly after each other. Example:</p> -<code> -$string="Fred, Bill,, Joe, Jimmy";<br /> -$string=reduce_multiples($string,","); //results in "Fred, Bill, Joe, Jimmy" -</code> -<p>The function accepts the following parameters: -<code>reduce_multiples(string: text to search in, string: character to reduce, boolean: whether to remove the character from the front and end of the string)</code> - -The first parameter contains the string in which you want to reduce the multiplies. The second parameter contains the character you want to have reduced. -The third parameter is FALSE by default; if set to TRUE it will remove occurences of the character at the beginning and the end of the string. Example: - -<code> -$string=",Fred, Bill,, Joe, Jimmy,";<br /> -$string=reduce_multiples($string, ", ", TRUE); //results in "Fred, Bill, Joe, Jimmy" -</code> -</p> - -<h2>quotes_to_entities()</h2> -<p>Converts single and double quotes in a string to the corresponding HTML entities. Example:</p> -<code>$string="Joe's \"dinner\"";<br /> -$string=quotes_to_entities($string); //results in "Joe&#39;s &quot;dinner&quot;" -</code> - -<h2>strip_quotes()</h2> -<p>Removes single and double quotes from a string. Example:</p> -<code>$string="Joe's \"dinner\"";<br /> -$string=strip_quotes($string); //results in "Joes dinner" -</code> - -</div> -<!-- END CONTENT --> - - -<div id="footer"> -<p> -Previous Topic: <a href="smiley_helper.html">Smiley Helper</a> - · -<a href="#top">Top of Page</a> · -<a href="../index.html">User Guide Home</a> · -Next Topic: <a href="text_helper.html">Text Helper</a> -</p> -<p><a href="http://codeigniter.com">CodeIgniter</a> · Copyright © 2006 - 2011 · <a href="http://ellislab.com/">EllisLab, Inc.</a></p> -</div> - -</body> -</html> |
