Hello,

I'm basically trying to solve this problem whole week but it seems like my PHP knowledge isn't good enough to fix my problem.

I'm having a registration form, where people fill in their name/username etc. I'm Mapping these value's to a ZOO tabel in the database.

I'm mapping the value of name to 2 different rows (Name, alias). Now i'm trying to remove any spaces and any capital letters from the alias.

Looking through the documentation i figured out i should work with $_post. I just can't find out what to code.

Any help would be really appreciated,

Dennis

for the alias? you can use the convert to lowercase string function

Code:

$str = getElementById(PUT DIV ID NAME HERE FOR NAME TEXTBOX or use 'ElementByClass' and put Class name here);
$alias = string strtolower ( string $str );



.....

for the removal of spaces you could just use a string replace function and specify ("") two double quotes for to remove it...


mixed str_replace ( mixed $search , mixed $replace , mixed $subject [, int &$count ] )


Look here for definitions:

I have a similar issue trying to map an Eventlist component image field.

I use an rsform image upload to post an image to eventlist but it wraps an anchor tag around the image so the image is not rendered in Eventlist.

I only need the image name and extension inserted to the field. How can I strip the anchor tag?

Eventlist is a component (com)_eventlist) and it has a database column for images. I use the RSform field file upload to submit the image and map it to the Eventlist component DB table.

I still am trying to strip the anchor tag wrap which is added on DB post. I have attemptemted multiple forms of str_replace but all have failed.

does anyone know how to strip the anchor tag from rsform submitted images. I just need the image name and extension.

I tried some str_replace configurations but still no success. How do I get rsform to post an uploaded image to the database without the anchor tag? I just need it to insert the image filename and extension.

Well I still could not figure the image issue but found an article that includes a step to convert the title field of custom rsform to an alias and convert to lowercase and special characters replaced by minus sign '-' See cmsenergizer.com/website-energy-guide/44...la-content-component
