Hi all im trying to do a thing to parse my smilies correctly and this is my post parsing thing;

PHP Code:

// post body bbcode stuff
function main_bbcode()
{
    global $site_config;
    
    // Strip the old tags!
    $_POST['body1'] = htmlspecialchars($_POST['body1']);
    
    // Smilies
    $grab_smilies = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM `smilies` ORDER BY `id`");
    while ($echo_smilies = mysql_fetch_array($grab_smilies))
    {
        $_POST['body1'] = str_replace($echo_smilies['code'],"<img src='{$site_config['site_url']}{$echo_smilies['image']}' />",$_POST['body1']);
    }
    
    // Bold code
    $_POST['body1'] = str_replace("[b]","<strong>",$_POST['body1']);
    $_POST['body1'] = str_replace("[/b]","</strong>",$_POST['body1']);
        
    // Underline code
    $_POST['body1'] = str_replace("[u]","<u>",$_POST['body1']);

    $_POST['body1'] = str_replace("[/u]","</u>",$_POST['body1']);
        
    // Italic code
    $_POST['body1'] = str_replace("[i]","<em>",$_POST['body1']);
    $_POST['body1'] = str_replace("[/i]","</em>",$_POST['body1']);
        
    // New line code
    $_POST['body1'] = str_replace("\n","<br />",$_POST['body1']);
    
    // Urls
    $_POST['body1'] = preg_replace("`(?<=^|[\n ]|\.)http://([\w]*[\w\.\?\/&=\;-]+)`","[url=http://\\1]http://\\1[/url]",$_POST['body1']);
    $_POST['body1'] = preg_replace("`(?<=^|[\n ]|\.)www\.([\w\.\?\/&=\;-]+)`","[url=http://www.\\1]www.\\1[/url]",$_POST['body1']);
    
    $_POST['body1'] = preg_replace("`\[url\]([\w]*[:\/\/]*[\w\.\?\/&=\;, -@]+)\[/url\]`sUi","<a href='\\1' rel='nofollow'>\\1</a>",$_POST['body1']);
    $_POST['body1'] = preg_replace("`\[url\=([\w]*[:\/\/]*[\w\.\?\/&=\;, -@]+)\](.*)\[/url\]`sUi","<a href='\\1' rel='nofollow'>\\2</a>",$_POST['body1']);

    // addlsashes dont want no errors or sql injection
    $_POST['body1'] = addslashes($_POST['body1']);
} 


Say one of smilie codes is [<] well <] doesnt get entered in the database is there a way for it to pick up all things its replacing coze i think its deleting it or something?

Please explain your problem more thoroughly.. I'm not sure what the problem is.

your best bet will be to echo the query and try running it in phpmyadmin makes life a bit easier seeing the code that needs to be executed and the error phpmyadmin gives (if any).
