Print Page - New helper functions

hello everyone.. lets have a topic where can gather new helper functions y hope that helps few of us... and someone customize that into better one ...

this one
can prevent insertion.... of ugly strings:) ;)

Code: [Select]

function prevent_long_strings($post, $limit = 3) {
    $words_array = explode(" ", $post);
    $cut_string = "";
    foreach ($words_array as $val) {
        if (preg_match("/(.)\\1{".$limit.",}/", $val)) {
            $char_array = preg_split("//", $val);
            $check = 0;
            for ($i = 0; $i < count($char_array); $i++) {
                if ($char_array[$i] == $char_array[$i-1]) {
                    if ($check < $limit - 1) {
                        $new_word[] = $char_array[$i];
                    }
                    $check++;
                } else {
                    $new_word[] = $char_array[$i];
                    $check = 0;
                }
            }
            $cut_string .= implode("", $new_word)." ";
            unset($new_word);
        } else {
            $cut_string .= $val." ";
        }
    }
    return $cut_string;
}

// Example:
echo prevent_long_strings("Hello, can you heeeeeeeeaaaaaaaar meeeeeeeeeeeee !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!", 3);
// is converted to "Hello, can you heeeaaar meee !!! !!!"

new helper function :) look nicer like this :)

<p class="filters">
<?php _e('Sort by', 'modern'); ?>:
<?php osc_list_orders_list();?>
</p>
here is the function

Code: [Select]

function osc_list_orders_list() {

$i = 0 ; 
         $orders = osc_list_orders();
        foreach($orders as $label => $params) {
            $orderType = ($params['iOrderType'] == 'asc') ? '0' : '1'; 
             if(osc_search_order() == $params['sOrder'] && osc_search_order_type() == $orderType) { 
               echo' <a class="current" href="'; echo osc_update_search_url($params) ; 
			   echo'">'; echo $label;
			   echo'</a>';
            } else { 
               echo' <a href="';
			    echo osc_update_search_url($params) ; 
				echo'">';
				 echo $label; 
				 echo'</a>';
             } 
           if ($i != count($orders)-1) { 
		   echo'<span>&middot;</span>';
             } 
             $i++ ; 
       }
	   }

or u can switch to dropdown.. and allows more options ..sort by oldest .. sort by published last week.. last 7 days... last 30 days..
dont forget to complete osc_list_orders function form include/helpers hsearch with those options before u use it :)

__('new first') => array('sOrder' => 'dt_pub_date', 'iOrderType' => 'desc')
,__('old first') => array('sOrder' => 'dt_pub_date', 'iOrderType' => 'asc')

and looks like this. into search_list.php

<p class="filters">
<?php _e('Sort by', 'modern'); ?>:
<?php osc_list_orders_drop();?>
</p>

Code: [Select]

function osc_list_orders_drop() {

   $orders = osc_list_orders();
   echo '<select name="order" id="order" ONCHANGE="location = this.options[this.selectedIndex].value;">';


        

        foreach($orders as $label => $params){
           $orderType = ($params['iOrderType'] == 'asc') ? '0' : '1';
            echo '<option value="'.osc_update_search_url($params).'">';
			echo $label; 
			echo'</option>';   
			
        }

       echo'</select>';
}

this one has a bug :)
