<p>The Smiley helper has a renderer that takes plain text smileys, like
:-) and turns them into a image representation, like <img alt="smile!" src="../_images/smile.gif" /></p>
<p>It also lets you display a set of smiley images that when clicked will
be inserted into a form field. For example, if you have a blog that
allows user commenting you can show the smileys next to the comment
form. Your users can click a desired smiley and with the help of some
JavaScript it will be placed into the form field.</p>

<h2><a class="toc-backref" href="#id3">Clickable Smileys Tutorial</a><a class="headerlink" href="#clickable-smileys-tutorial" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
<p>Here is an example demonstrating how you might create a set of clickable
smileys next to a form field. This example requires that you first
download and install the smiley images, then create a controller and the
View as described.</p>
<div class="admonition important">
<p class="first admonition-title">Important</p>
<p class="last">Before you begin, please <a class="reference external" href="https://ellislab.com/asset/ci_download_files/smileys.zip">download the smiley images</a>
and put them in a publicly accessible place on your server.
This helper also assumes you have the smiley replacement array
located at <cite>application/config/smileys.php</cite></p>
</div>
<div class="section" id="the-controller">
<h3><a class="toc-backref" href="#id4">The Controller</a><a class="headerlink" href="#the-controller" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3>
<p>In your <strong>application/controllers/</strong> directory, create a file called
Smileys.php and place the code below in it.</p>
<div class="admonition important">
<p class="first admonition-title">Important</p>

<p>In your <strong>application/views/</strong> directory, create a file called <strong>smiley_view.php</strong>

<p>When making changes to a view it can be inconvenient to have the field
id in the controller. To work around this, you can give your smiley
links a generic name that will be tied to a specific id in your view.</p>
<div class="highlight-ci"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="nv">$image_array</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="nx">get_smiley_links</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s2">"http://example.com/images/smileys/"</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="s2">"comment_textarea_alias"</span><span class="p">);</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>To map the alias to the field id, pass them both into the
<code class="xref py py-func docutils literal"><span class="pre">smiley_js()</span></code> function:</p>

<p>Generates the JavaScript that allows the images to be clicked and
inserted into a form field. If you supplied an alias instead of an id
when generating your smiley links, you need to pass the alias and
corresponding form id into the function. This function is designed to be
placed into the <head> area of your web page.</p>
<p>Example:</p>
<div class="highlight-ci"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="o"><?</span><span class="nx">php</span> <span class="k">echo</span> <span class="nx">smiley_js</span><span class="p">();</span> <span class="cp">?></span>

<p>Takes a string of text as input and replaces any contained plain text
smileys into the image equivalent. The first parameter must contain your
string, the second must contain the URL to your smiley folder</p>
