Big Question.

Anon

Hey I have this source code below and it works like a charm! Thanks Chris E.! But one thing about it.... I want it to tell the user what word that it just doesn't accept. I cut out all the words (little kids in the forum) but just let me know how I can go about it. Oh and thought_thought is the text the user inputs. Which comes from a seperate form. So don't worry bout that. Thanks!

<?
function checkBadWords($thought_thought) {
$badWords = array('the','and','chili');
foreach ($badWords as $badWord) {
if (eregi($badWord, $thought_thought)) {
return false;
}
}
return true;
}
if (!checkBadWords($thought_thought)) {
print("<h1>You Kiss Your Mother With Those Lips!</h1>");
print("<h3>Bad Language! Keep it down!</h3>");
print("<meta http-equiv='refresh' content='3; url=randomthoughts.php'>");
print("</head><body><a href='randomthoughts.php'>If it does not come up. Please click here. This will take you back.</a></body>");
exit;
}
$db = mysql_connect("localhost");
mysql_select_db("olentangy", $db);
$sql = "INSERT INTO thought
VALUES(NULL,'$thought_name','$thought_grade','$thought_thought')";
mysql_query($sql);
?>
<?php
print("<meta http-equiv='refresh' content='1; url=randomthoughts.php'>");
print("</head><body><a href='randomthoughts.php'>If it does not come up. Please click here. This will take you back.</a></body>");
?>

Thanks!

Hi,

Try using strstr() instead of eregi(), it's less resourcefull.
for case-insensitive searches, use stristr()

ie:
<PRE>

function checkBadWords($thought_thought) {
$badWords = array('the','and','chili');
foreach ($badWords as $badWord) {
if (strstr($badWord, $thought_thought)) {
return false;
}
}

return true;
}

</PRE>

Sorry, i mixed up the arguments.

it should be:

strstr($though_though, $badWord)

Yea but how do you display the bad word? I want it to show the user what word they used so they don't use it again. Ya know?

Here is the code with the bad words left in them. Feel free to use this if you are creating a teen site or something. Massive ups to Chris E. and Nobbie for some ideas. Nobbie, you need to place it in a certian position for it to read the word. After it hits the false; statment it will clear the variables (I think) and therefore had nothing to display. So if you put it in there at the beginning it will print then clear. Darn you still have it printed though. So here is the script for it!
