Hi, I have a XML page here. Basically, I need to change the AA! (1) for every file to (2) all the way through to (2611). Is there any Find and Replace formula I could use, instead of doing this manually? Or, some simple PHP script I could incorperate into this XML page? I would hate to have to waste 5 hours editing these numbers...

:loveyou:

I'm half asleep so I may be missing something obvious but cant you just use the replace function of a text editor?

Absolutely, but, I need to replace each number with a something different. So I would be using the replace function about 2600 times.

Each (1) needs to be replaced with (2) then (3) then (4) etc

Ahh ok.

If you haven't found the answer by tomorrow (currently 3:35am here) and still looking for a way to do it. I will write up some php for you. Just PM me if interested.

Code: 
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<simpleviewerGallery maxImageWidth="480" maxImageHeight="480" textColor="0xFFFFFF" frameColor="0xffffff" frameWidth="20" stagePadding="40" thumbnailColumns="3" thumbnailRows="3" navPosition="left" title="SimpleViewer Title" enableRightClickOpen="true" backgroundImagePath="" imagePath="" thumbPath="">
<?php

for ($i = 1; $i <= 2611; $i++)
{
    echo '<image>
    <filename>AA! ('.$i.').jpg</filename>
    <caption>Free Avatars!/caption>
</image>
';
}
?>
</simpleviewerGallery>

If this is saved in a file ending with .php it should do what you want.

If you need to use a different file extension, you'll need to make a change to your .htaccess file to use the PHP interpreter. For example:

Code: 
RemoveHandler .xml
AddType application/x-httpd-php .xml

Thanks so much! I'm going to try this right now. I will post back the results :)

---------- Post added at 02:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:10 PM ----------

I edited gallery.xml with the code you wrote, and added the .htaccess in the root but it essentially acts as if there are no images in the gallery at all.

I would only assume this is because of the whole PHP code being in an XML file :(

Is the XML file being processed by the web server? If not, rename the file so that it ends with .php, add the following to the beginning:
Code: 
<?php header("Content-Type: plain/text"); ?>
then visit it in a web browser. You should then see the XML, which you could copy and paste into the XML file.

qbert220 that is not going to work properly. For example on the 1st run $i is going to be 1, you will replace 1 with 2, on the 2nd run $i is going to be 2.

Guess what is going to happen, the 1 you just replaced with 2 will now be replaced with 3.

You should start with 2611 and work your way down instead.

Then I must have misunderstood. I was not intending my code to run multiple times. I was trying to generate the output I thought the OP wanted:

Code: 
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<simpleviewerGallery maxImageWidth="480" maxImageHeight="480" textColor="0xFFFFFF" frameColor="0xffffff" frameWidth="20" stagePadding="40" thumbnailColumns="3" thumbnailRows="3" navPosition="left" title="SimpleViewer Title" enableRightClickOpen="true" backgroundImagePath="" imagePath="" thumbPath="">

    <filename>AA! (2).jpg</filename>
    <caption>Free Avatars!/caption>    
</image>
<image>
    <filename>AA! (3).jpg</filename>
    <caption>Free Avatars!/caption>    
</image>
<image>
    <filename>AA! (4).jpg</filename>
    <caption>Free Avatars!/caption>

...

<image>

Sorry ignore my last post. I forgot to notice you were in fact echo'ing the data.

I tried your suggestion again, however it still did not work. I am completely puzzled! Instead of reading each file, maybe I could just find a way to automatically add the entire folder. I feel that might be harder to code.
