<h1>Smiley Helper</h1>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>The Smiley Helper file contains functions that let you manage smileys (emoticons).</p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
<h2>Loading this Helper</h2>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>This helper is loaded using the following code:</p>
|
||
|
<code>$this->load->helper('smiley');</code>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<h2>Overview</h2>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>The Smiley helper has a renderer that takes plain text simileys, like <dfn>:-)</dfn> and turns
|
||
|
them into a image representation, like <img src="../images/smile.gif" width="19" height="19" border="0" alt="smile!" /></p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>It also lets you display a set of smiley images that when clicked will be inserted into a form field.
|
||
|
For example, if you have a blog that allows user commenting you can show the smileys next to the comment form.
|
||
|
Your users can click a desired smiley and with the help of some JavaScript it will be placed into the form field.</p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
<h2>Clickable Smileys Tutorial</h2>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>Here is an example demonstrating how you might create a set of clickable smileys next to a form field. This example
|
||
|
requires that you first download and install the smiley images, then create a controller and the View as described.</p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p class="important"><strong>Important:</strong> Before you begin, please <a href="http://codeigniter.com/download_files/smileys.zip">download the smiley images</a> and put them in
|
||
|
a publicly accessible place on your server. This helper also assumes you have the smiley replacement array located at
|
||
|
<dfn>application/config/smileys.php</dfn></p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
<h3>The Controller</h3>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>In your <dfn>application/controllers/</dfn> folder, create a file called <kbd>smileys.php</kbd> and place the code below in it.</p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p><strong>Important:</strong> Change the URL in the <dfn>get_clickable_smileys()</dfn> function below so that it points to
|
||
|
your <dfn>smiley</dfn> folder.</p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>You'll notice that in addition to the smiley helper we are using the <a href="../libraries/table.html">Table Class</a>.</p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<textarea class="textarea" style="width:100%" cols="50" rows="25">
|
||
|
<?php
|
||
|
|
||
|
class Smileys extends CI_Controller {
|
||
|
|
||
|
function __construct()
|
||
|
{
|
||
|
parent::__construct();
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
|
||
|
function index()
|
||
|
{
|
||
|
$this->load->helper('smiley');
|
||
|
$this->load->library('table');
|
||
|
|
||
|
$image_array = get_clickable_smileys('http://example.com/images/smileys/', 'comments');
|
||
|
|
||
|
$col_array = $this->table->make_columns($image_array, 8);
|
||
|
|
||
|
$data['smiley_table'] = $this->table->generate($col_array);
|
||
|
|
||
|
$this->load->view('smiley_view', $data);
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
?>
|
||
|
</textarea>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>In your <dfn>application/views/</dfn> folder, create a file called <kbd>smiley_view.php</kbd> and place this code in it:</p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<textarea class="textarea" style="width:100%" cols="50" rows="20">
|
||
|
<html>
|
||
|
<head>
|
||
|
<title>Smileys</title>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<?php echo smiley_js(); ?>
|
||
|
|
||
|
</head>
|
||
|
<body>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<form name="blog">
|
||
|
<textarea name="comments" id="comments" cols="40" rows="4"></textarea>
|
||
|
</form>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>Click to insert a smiley!</p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<?php echo $smiley_table; ?>
|
||
|
|
||
|
</body>
|
||
|
</html>
|
||
|
</textarea>
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>When you have created the above controller and view, load it by visiting <dfn>http://www.example.com/index.php/smileys/</dfn></p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
<h3>Field Aliases</h3>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>When making changes to a view it can be inconvenient to have the field id in the controller. To work around this,
|
||
|
you can give your smiley links a generic name that will be tied to a specific id in your view.</p>
|
||
|
<code>$image_array = get_smiley_links("http://example.com/images/smileys/", "comment_textarea_alias");</code>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>To map the alias to the field id, pass them both into the smiley_js function:</p>
|
||
|
<code>$image_array = smiley_js("comment_textarea_alias", "comments");</code>
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
<h1>Function Reference</h1>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<h2>get_clickable_smileys()</h2>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>Returns an array containing your smiley images wrapped in a clickable link. You must supply the URL to your smiley folder
|
||
|
and a field id or field alias.</p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<code>$image_array = get_smiley_links("http://example.com/images/smileys/", "comment");</code>
|
||
|
<p class="important">Note: Usage of this function without the second parameter, in combination with js_insert_smiley has been deprecated.</p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
<h2>smiley_js()</h2>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>Generates the JavaScript that allows the images to be clicked and inserted into a form field.
|
||
|
If you supplied an alias instead of an id when generating your smiley links, you need to pass the
|
||
|
alias and corresponding form id into the function.
|
||
|
This function is designed to be placed into the <head> area of your web page.</p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<code><?php echo smiley_js(); ?></code>
|
||
|
<p class="important">Note: This function replaces js_insert_smiley, which has been deprecated.</p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
<h2>parse_smileys()</h2>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>Takes a string of text as input and replaces any contained plain text smileys into the image
|
||
|
equivalent. The first parameter must contain your string, the second must contain the URL to your smiley folder:</p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<code>
|
||
|
$str = 'Here are some simileys: :-) ;-)';
|
||
|
|
||
|
$str = parse_smileys($str, "http://example.com/images/smileys/");
|
||
|
|
||
|
echo $str;
|
||
|
</code>
