whats the code to make text thats coming out of a DB with things like 🙂 and 😛 being turned into the grapic counter parts,
basicly

:) = <img src="smile.gif">
:P = <img src="tounge.gif">

etc etc etc

Pull the text into a variable and where you wish to display the image try some thing like

<?php

if ($variable == "🙂") {
print "<img src='smile.gif'>";
}
else if ($variable == "😛") {
print "<img src='tounge.gif'>";
}

?>

if the variable $text has the text in it from the db, use str_replace for smilies etc

$text=str_replace(":)","<img src=\"smile.gif\" border=\"0\">",$text);

etc
