youngvet1 Posted November 12, 2007 Share Posted November 12, 2007 I really need some help --I am trying to get a HTML pages source then coumapre it to the HTML that would be shown if I click 'view source' and match them up?? This is what I have and have been trying but they are not matching, since I set $start_source = to the exact source code of the HTML page I thought they should be equal?? <?php ///////////HTML from viewing pages current source ///////////////////////////// $start_source='<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;charset=utf-8" /> <meta name="generator" content="Adobe GoLive" /> <title>Rival NYC</title> <style type="text/css"> @import url(style.css); </style> <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript"> function checkEmail(myForm) { if (/^\w+([\.-]?\w+)*@\w+([\.-]?\w+)*(\.\w{2,3})+$/.test(myForm.email.value)){ return (true) } alert("Invalid E-mail Address!

wildteen88 Posted November 12, 2007 Share Posted November 12, 2007 Why are you using highlight_file? Using this function PHP will apply syntax highlighting to the code in the requested file (it'll add in extra html) and thus $start_source and $end_source wont match. Use file_get_contents instead.

cooldude832 Posted November 12, 2007 Share Posted November 12, 2007 simple way is a md5checksum of the file, store it and then check if it has changed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youngvet1 Posted November 12, 2007 Author Share Posted November 12, 2007 A little new to this, could give me a little explanation. Is this a function? Also I notice that on this ( http://www.lifevstyle.com/rivalnyc/ ) when I view the page info the "last modified" is always updating probabaly becuase of the swf file. Would this efect this approach.

Yes, md5 is a function. See http://php.net/md5 You might use crc32() as well -> http://php.net/crc32 Just md5 or crc32 the string from your code and do the same for the file_get_contents string.

pkSML Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 Why don't you put the source from the site in a file. Then perform md5(file_get_contents("./source.txt")) and compare it to md5(file_get_contents("http://www.lifevstyle.com/rivalnyc/")) See what happens then.

Orio Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 On a side note- instead of md5(file_get_contents(...)) you can simply use md5_file(). I bet the problem is line breaks... And since line breaks do not effect the source (unless you use <pre >), you can remove all the line-breaks and then compare: <?php /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// $start_source='<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;charset=utf-8" /> <meta name="generator" content="Adobe GoLive" /> <title>Rival NYC</title> <style type="text/css"> @import url(style.css); </style> <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript"> function checkEmail(myForm) { if (/^\w+([\.-]?\w+)*@\w+([\.-]?\w+)*(\.\w{2,3})+$/.test(myForm.email.value)){ return (true) } alert("Invalid E-mail Address!

When it gets written to url.txt(when url.txt doesnt exist) -- when u view it what shows up? I have PHP5. File_put_contents must be a PHP5 command. Your problems are probably related to line breaks when you copy the code. If you forget just one of them (there may be extras at the end of the file), it won't match. But I see you got it working! That's great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
