How to add this BBcode script to my script?

Suspiria

I found a BBcode tutorial here: http://www.phpit.net/article/create-bbcode-php/

How do I add this BBcode script to my script?

This is my script (show article):

<?php
include "../include/header.php";
include '../include/db.php';

$sql = mysql_query("SELECT article_id, user_id, title, ingress, text_1, image_1, text_2, image_2 FROM articles WHERE user_id = 1 ORDER BY title") or die (mysql_error());

while ( $row = mysql_fetch_array($sql) ) 

echo nl2br("<p><b><h1>" . $row["title"] . "</h1></b></p><p><b>" . $row["ingress"] . "</b></p><p>" . $row["text_1"] . "</p><p><img src=\"../images/article_images/" . $row["image_1"] . "\" alt=\"\"></p><p>" . $row["text_2"] . "</p><p><img src=\"../images/article_images/" . $row["image_2"] . "\" alt=\"\"></p>");

include "../include/footer.php";
?>

This is the BBcode:

function bbcode_format ($str) {
        $str = htmlentities($str); 

    $simple_search = array(
                            '/\[b\](.*?)\[\/b\]/is',                                
                            '/\[i\](.*?)\[\/i\]/is',                                
                            '/\[u\](.*?)\[\/u\]/is'
                            );

    $simple_replace = array(
                            '<strong>$1</strong>',
                            '<em>$1</em>',
                            '<u>$1</u>'
                            );

    // Do simple BBCode's
    $str = preg_replace ($simple_search, $simple_replace, $str);

    return $str;
}

function bbcode_quote ($str) {
        $open = '<blockquote>';
        $close = '</blockquote>'; 

    // How often is the open tag?
    preg_match_all ('/\[quote\]/i', $str, $matches);
    $opentags = count($matches['0']);

    // How often is the close tag?
    preg_match_all ('/\[\/quote\]/i', $str, $matches);
    $closetags = count($matches['0']);

    // Check how many tags have been unclosed
    // And add the unclosing tag at the end of the message
    $unclosed = $opentags - $closetags;
    for ($i = 0; $i < $unclosed; $i++) {
            $str .= '</blockquote>';
    }

    // Do replacement
    $str = str_replace ('[quote]', $open, $str);
    $str = str_replace ('[/quote]', $close, $str);

    return $str;
}

Include that bbcode page and then do this:

echo nl2br("<p><b><h1>" . bbcode_format($row["title"]) . "</h1></b></p><p><b>" . bbcode_format($row["ingress"]) . "</b></p><p>" . bbcode_format(bbcode_quote($row["text_1"])) . "</p><p><img src=\"../images/article_images/" . $row["image_1"] . "\" alt=\"\"></p><p>" . bbcode_format(bbcode_quote($row["text_2"])) . "</p><p><img src=\"../images/article_images/" . $row["image_2"] . "\" alt=\"\"></p>");

Thanks 🙂

EDIT: Unfortunately the The bbcode_format and bbcode_quote only works if they stand alone, not together. Later I want to add another function: bbcode_url. So at least three functions have to be nested.

This works: bbcode_format($row["text_1"])
This works: bbcode_qote($row["text_1"])
This does not work: bbcode_format(bbcode_quote($row["text_1"]))

This is the code I got now (some modifications):

<?php
include "../include/header.php";
include "../include/db.php";
include "bbcode.php";

$sql = mysql_query("SELECT article_id, user_id, title, ingress, text_1, image_1, text_2, image_2 FROM articles WHERE user_id = 1 ORDER BY title") or die (mysql_error());

while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($sql)) {

echo ("<p><b><h1>" . $row["title"] . "</h1></b></p>");
echo ("<p><b>" . $row["ingress"] . "</b></p>");
echo nl2br("<p>" . bbcode_format(bbcode_quote($row["text_1"])) . "</p>");
echo ("<p><img src=\"../images/article_images/" . $row["image_1"] . "\" alt=\"\"></p>");
echo nl2br("<p>" . bbcode_format(bbcode_quote($row["text_2"])) . "</p>");
echo ("<p><img src=\"../images/article_images/" . $row["image_2"] . "\" alt=\"\"></p>");

} // End WHILE

include "../include/footer.php";
?>

			$sql = "SELECT * FROM `" . $prefix  . "updates` ORDER BY `id` DESC LIMIT 0,10";
			$retid = $db->db_query($sql);

		while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($retid))
		{
			$contents .= $template->load_tpl($root_path . "templates/blog_body");
			$contents = preg_replace ("{{U_BLOG_DATE_POSTED}}", $row[date], $contents);
			$contents = preg_replace ("{{U_BLOG_CONTENTS}}", $functions->bbcode_format($row[body]), $contents);
			$contents = preg_replace ("{{U_BLOG_AUTHOR}}", $row[author], $contents);
			$contents = preg_replace ("{{U_BLOG_TITLE}}", $row[title], $contents);
			$contents = preg_replace ("{{U_BLOG_ID}}", $row[id], $contents);

		}


		break;

You should really credit those authors at phpBB for that, rather than just posting it.
