Greg_BigPhpAmat

Hello. I have this code:

<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<?
include("class.xml.parser.php");
include("class.weather.php");
$timeout=3*60*60;  // 3 hours
$tc=100;

if (isset($_ENV["TEMP"]))
  $cachedir=$_ENV["TEMP"];
else if (isset($_ENV["TMP"]))
  $cachedir=$_ENV["TMP"];
else if (isset($_ENV["TMPDIR"]))
  $cachedir=$_ENV["TMPDIR"];
else
  $cachedir="/tmp";
 $cachedir=str_replace('\\\\','/',$cachedir);
if (substr($cachedir,-1)!='/') $cachedir.='/';
$weather_chile = new weather("CAXX0518", 3600, "C", $cachedir);
$weather_chile->parsecached(); 

print "<img src=http://us.i1.yimg.com/us.yimg.com/i/us/we/52/".$weather_chile->forecast['CURRENT']['CODE'].".gif>";
print "<h1>Actual Situation</h1>";
print "acttext: ".$weather_chile->forecast['CURRENT']['TEXT']."<br>";
print  round(($weather_chile->forecast['CURRENT']['TEMP'] - 32)*(5/9));
print "<br>";
print "acttime: ".$weather_chile->forecast['CURRENT']['DATE']."<br>";
print "actcode: ".$weather_chile->forecast['CURRENT']['CODE']."<br>";




?>
</body>
</html>

Line: <quote>print "acttext: ".$weather_chile->forecast['CURRENT']['TEXT']."<br>";</quote>
display weather conditions. Exm. Cloudy
How to change this word to different with preg_replace.
Please help.

Er.. can you explain what you're trying to do more clearly? Change it to what?

This script will diplay weather conditions.
Line: print "acttext: ".$weather_chile->forecast['CURRENT']['TEXT']."<br>"; will display for exm. Cloudy. I would like to change this word to other language. I know I can use preg_replace but I dont know how and where to paste it. I will write all possible words.

There's no need to use regular expressions if you're just changing one word to another. Consider this example:

$languaje = array (
    'Cloudy' = 'Nublado',
    'Sunny' => 'Soleado',
    // etc. for all words to be translated
);

echo "<h1>Actual Situation</h1>
acttext: ".strtr($weather_chile->forecast['CURRENT']['TEXT'], $languaje)."<br>";

EDIT: Just to link to the manual, the function [man]strtr/man can use an array to "translate" words in a given string.

Also, wouldn't it just be easier to find an RSS service that provides the feed in whichever language you prefer?

I paste it in code but I get error in line 11. What did I wrong?

Well you didn't finish the array definition. The last element, for example, shouldn't have a comma after it.

See this manual page for more information on creating arrays: [man]types.array[/man].
