Re: Trying something new... point me in the right direction?
Well, I've made good progress digging around on my own...
- PHP: Select all
<?php
$i = 0;
$text = " ";
$lines = file('http://www.surfline.com/surf-report/oceanside-pier-ns-southern-california_4241/');
foreach ($lines as $line_num => $line)
{
if (strpos($line, 'CURRENT WEATHER') >= 1) {
$i++;
} elseif (strpos($line, 'SUNRISE/SET') >= 1) {
$i--;
} elseif (strpos($line, 'SURF:') >= 1) {
$i++;
} elseif (strpos($line, 'PM REGIONAL OVERVIEW:') >= 1) {
$i--;
}
if ($i == 1) {
$notabs = array("\t", "\n");
$text = $text . str_replace($notabs, "", strip_tags($line)) . " ";
}
}
$nocr = array(" WIND: ", " AIR/WATER: ", " SURF: ");
$addcr = array("<br />\nWIND: ", "<br />\nAIR/WATER: ", "<br />\nSURF: ");
$text = str_replace($nocr, $addcr, $text);
$text = str_replace(" CURRENT WEATHER:", "CURRENT WEATHER: ", $text);
print $text;
?>
It may not be as elegant as it might be, but it's achieving the desired result...

Now for the part that scares me - text-to-image. |
