BBCode php parser class

by z3n on Jul.10, 2010, under Coding, Tips & Hints

This class is based on jquery’s markitup plugin function, i did some code compressions and added youtube handler to it. If you need base_defines function, just search the site.

class BBCodeParser {
	private $text;

	public function __construct() {
		base_defines(array(
			"EMOTICONS_DIR" => "/img/emoticons/"
		));
	}

	public function escape($s) {
		$this->text = strip_tags($this->text);
		$code = $s[1];
		$code = htmlspecialchars($code);
		$code = str_replace("[", "[", $code);
		$code = str_replace("]", "]", $code);
		return '<pre><code>'.$code.'</code></pre>';
	}	

	public function removeBr($s) {
		return str_replace("<br />", "", $s[0]);
	}

	public function parse($text) {
		$this->text = trim($text);
		$this->text = preg_replace(array(
				'/\[b\](.*?)\[\/b\]/ms',
				'/\[i\](.*?)\[\/i\]/ms',

How to abort ajax requests gracefully

by z3n on Jun.28, 2010, under Coding, Tips & Hints

Problem:

Ajax is great, everyone knows, but sometimes for network issues, server slowdowns or simply users issues request fails or keep loading for a long time. How to abort a request or all of them without needing to reload the whole page?

Solution:

First you need to throw all your ajax requests into a array, that way you can use it as api, so you can abort any “slow” requests, in my case i have a complex admin interface which sometimes bugs or get swamped with lots of requests at same time, usually due user related issues, so i added this “cancel” button which clears up all pending ajax requests, making the system more realiable. Before developing it i did a test on how it works, here’s the source:

<?php

// (c) z3n - R1V1@100628 - www.overflow.biz - rodrigo.orph@gmail.com

if (isset($_REQUEST['q'])) {
	header('Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8'); // mandatory for jquery compatibility
	if (!isset($_REQUEST['a']))
		sleep(20);
	echo json_encode(array("r" => 1));
	die;
} else {

?>

<html>
	<head>
		<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4/jquery.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
		<script type="text/javascript">
			var _ajax=[];

			function do_dbg(msg) {
				$("#dbg").prepend(msg+"<BR>");
			}

			function do_ajax() {
				do_dbg("do ajax");
				_ajax[_ajax.length] = $.ajax({data:"q=something",success:function(r,s) {
					do_dbg("do ajax reply");
					return;
				}});
			}

			function do_ajax_fast() {
				do_dbg("do ajax_fast");
				_ajax[_ajax.length] = $.ajax({data:"q=something&a=other_thing",success:function(r,s) {
					do_dbg("do ajax fast reply");
					return;
				}});
			}

			function kill_ajax() {
				do_dbg("aborting all ajax");
				for (var i in _ajax)
					_ajax[i].abort();
			}

			$(document).ready(function(){
				$.ajaxSetup({
					url:"<?=$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']?>",
					global:true,
					type:"POST",
					dataType:'json',
					cache:false,
					async:true,
					timeout:12000000,
					scriptCharset:"UTF-8"
				});
			});
		</script>
	</head>
	<body>
		<input type="button" onClick="do_ajax();" value="do ajax">
		<input type="button" onClick="kill_ajax();" value="kill ajax">
		<input type="button" onClick="do_ajax_fast();" value="do ajax fast">

		<BR><BR>

		<span id="dbg"></span>
	</body>
</html>
<?php

}

?>

CSS Packer Reloaded

by z3n on Jun.21, 2010, under Coding, Tips & Hints

Sometime ago i posted a simple css packer which basically wipes out the whitespaces,  new lines and so on. The javascript packer was also included. Although none of those were 100% my creations i’ve improved the way it works by adding a couple of things:

- Caching based on timestamp on files (aka automatic cache expiry on update)

- Packing multiple files into a single one (ex. if you have 100s of jquery extensions you don’t need to pack them individually, packing everything into a single file is faster and smaller)

- Flexible layout for packing IE specific files

Source:

function css_specifics($fn) {
	global $_GET;
	if (isset($_GET['q'])) {
		return str_replace(".css",".".trim(str_replace(array("..","/"),"",$_GET['q'])).".css",$fn);
	} else {
		return $fn;
	}
}

base_defines(array(
	"css_packed" => _is_sadm ? "packed-adm.css" : "packed.css",												// css worked file output
	"css_include_path" => "css/",																											// css base include path
	"css_cache_path" => "css/cache/",																									// css cache path
	"css_compression" => -1,																													// css compression method, -1 = disabled
	"css_copyright" => "/* (c) z3n - www.overflow.biz - rodrigo.orph@gmail.com */\n\n", 	// css copyright notice, will appear on packed verisons
	"css_debug" => 0,
	"css_gzip" => 1
));

$css="";
$_use_cache=0;
$css_packed=css_specifics(css_packed);

$l=(file_exists(css_cache_path.$css_packed)) ? filemtime(css_cache_path.$css_packed) : 0;

if (isset($css_includes) && (!empty($css_includes))) {
	if ($l > 0) { // check last mod first
		$_use_cache=1;
		if (css_debug)
			echo "collected includes: ".var_export($css_includes,true)."\n";
		foreach ($css_includes as $v) {
			$fn=_fn_fix($v{0} == "/" || strpos($v,":\\") !== false || $v{0} == "\\" ? $v : css_include_path.$v);
			if (css_debug)
				echo "checking lastmod for: ".$v."\n";
			if (foo((substr($v,0,5) == "http:") ?
					getlastmod($fn)
				:
					filemtime($fn)
			) > $l) {
				$_use_cache=0;
				break;
			}
		}
	}

	if (!$_use_cache) { // re/pack
		if (css_debug)
			echo "building new cache\n";
		// load all js into one
		foreach ($css_includes as $v)
			$css.=substr($v,0,5) == "http:" ?

				$css = str_replace( '{ ', '{', $css );
				$css = str_replace( ', ', ',', $css );
				$css = str_replace( '} ', '}', $css );
				$css = str_replace( ';}', '}', $css );
				break;
			default: // no compression/invalid
				// nothing!
				break;
		}

		$css=css_copyright.$css; // add copyright notice

		if (css_debug)
			echo "writing cache..\n";

		_fw(css_cache_path.$css_packed,$css,"w"); // save cache
	} else { // use cache

	}

	if (css_debug)

	header('Content-Type: text/css');

	if (css_gzip) // compress
		ob_start("ob_gzhandler");

	print $css; // final output
}

die;

Usage:

Configure files to be added by:

$css_includes=array(
    "file1.css",
    "file2.css",
    "fileN.css",
    "http://www.remote.com/style.css"
);

Do the link by:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="/lib/css.php" type="text/css">
<!--[if IE]><link rel="stylesheet" href="/lib/css.php?q=ie" type="text/css"><![endif]-->

Assuming you have the source into /lib/css.php and, on this case, you have an exception for all IEs.

Notes:

css_include_path = source of css (uncompressed, commented)
css_cache_path = path to save the compressed css
css_compression = method of compression , -1 no compression , 0 = css tidy, 1 = minify
css_debug = enables step by step debug
css_gzip = forces php to output as gzip

Required:

CSS Tidy

You may also need some functions of my framework, i will post them when i compile a decent common file.

jQuery validator special highlights for radio and checkbox

by z3n on Jun.17, 2010, under Coding, Tips & Hints

Problem:

Highlighting a checkbox or radio button on error with jquery’s validator plugin is not a good idea, specially if you’re adding borders , backgrounds or something like, since it’s NOT supported over all browsers. I have a little bar around them that goes red if something is wrong, however, it’s not possible to add it if there’s many elements, so it’s better add a wrapper element and style it, in my case i added an element which ID is the same of input NAME, a little change on the plugin make things automatic.

Solution:

		highlight: function( element, errorClass, validClass ) {
			$(element).addClass(errorClass).removeClass(validClass);
			if (($(element).attr("type") == "radio" || $(element).attr("type") == "checkbox") && $("#"+$(element).attr("name")).length > 0)
				$("#"+$(element).attr("name")).addClass(errorClass).removeClass(validClass);
		},
		unhighlight: function( element, errorClass, validClass ) {
			$(element).removeClass(errorClass).addClass(validClass);
			if (($(element).attr("type") == "radio" || $(element).attr("type") == "checkbox") && $("#"+$(element).attr("name")).length > 0)
				$("#"+$(element).attr("name")).removeClass(errorClass).addClass(validClass);

Dynamic width / height jQuery tools overlay content

by z3n on Jun.17, 2010, under Coding, Tips & Hints

Problem:

I have a form where user sends a image and, if needed, he will select an area of the image for cropping. Everything is loaded by AJAX and image size is dynamic, nothing wrong with Jcrop but overlay is not able to work right if there’s no width set the div floats at wrong position.

The setup of the form is quite complex (uploadify + jQuery tools overlay + Jcrop + AJAX), so it was complicated isolating the issue.

Solution:

By adding a image height / width reply to the ajax after image upload, setting the overlay container css width with it and reloading the overlay call fixed the issue.
Here’s a snippet:

				$("#crop_container").css({
					height:"auto",
					width: r.w+"px"
				}).overlay({
					speed: 500,
					fixed:false,
					closeOnClick: false,
					closeOnEsc: false,
					oneInstance: true,
					mask: {
						color: '#fff',
						opacity: 0.5
					}
				});

				$("#crop_container > span").html("<img height="+r.h+" width="+r.w+" src='"+img+"?"+Math.random()+"' id='crop_img'>");
