wrap text around images

[bojzi]

http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=19066.0

the problem is stated here... I want to be able to post images that have text wrapped around them. When i change subs.php the way that [unknown] said in the post above, i get an error... any ideas? thanks...


How to do it:
Sources/Subs.php, find:

Code Select Expand

// Size the font.  [size=large]HELLO![/size]
Add above it:

Code Select Expand

// Floating text/images...
'~\[float=(right|left)\](.+?)\[/float\]~' => '<div style="float: $1;">$2</div>',

Then you can use:

IMAGE HERE

Some text....


Moderator edit: added how to.

Can you post exactly how you're modifying Subs.php?

[bojzi]

'~\[float=(right|left)\](.+?)\[/float\]~' => '<div style="float: $1;">$2</div>',

And change:
'~\[hr(?:\s*/)?\]~i' => isset($disabled['hr']) ? '' : '<hr style="clear: both;" />',
'~\[br(?:\s*/)?\]~i' => '<br style="clear: both;" />',

This is what you wrote in the post about wrapping the text...

well, i just added the first line and found the two lines (hr, br) that had the same beginning, and changed them with the two lines that you wrote...

thanks for your help, but i get that error again

Code Select Expand

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING in /home/bojzi/public_html/forum/Sources/Subs.php on line 1593

phpinfo if you need it...

Edit: Oh yeah, the Subs.php is totally unmodified, no additional stuff added to it.

[Midgard]

what's on line 1593? please copy-paste on here

[bojzi]

This is copy-paste of the lines 1590-1595 after adding the mod:

1590: // Gotta be special for the javascript.
1591: $context['fader_news_lines'][$i] = strtr(addslashes($context['news_lines'][$i]), array('/' => '\/', '<a href=' => '<a hre" + "f='));
1592: }
1593: $context['random_news_line'] ']= $context['news_lines'][rand(0, count($context['news_lines']) - 1)];
1594:
1595: if (!$user_info['is_guest'])

[Midgard]

Replace with:

Code Select Expand

// Gotta be special for the javascript.
$context['fader_news_lines'][$i] = strtr(addslashes($context['news_lines'][$i]), array('/' => '\/', '<a href=' => '<a hre" + "f='));
}
$context['random_news_line'] = $context['news_lines'][rand(0, count($context['news_lines']) - 1)];

if (!$user_info['is_guest'])

Please try again...

[bojzi]

No, nothing yet...

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING in /home/bojzi/public_html/forum/Sources/Subs.php on line 1597

1596:{
1597: $context['user']['messages'] ']= &$user_info['messages'];
1598: $context['user']['unread_messages'] ']= &$user_info['unread_messages'];

[Midgard]

Ums, i guess, your Subs.php crashed... whether again upload Subs.php from 'ZERO' or 'I don't know...'


[Unknown] help we

[bojzi]

Congratulations!

Are you using Dreamweaver?

-[Unknown]

[bojzi]

yep

[James Woodcock]

Great little trick, however can you alter the code to add a bit of a margin around the image so the text isnt flush with the edge of the image?

[[Unknown]]

Of course, just make this:

'<div style="float: $1;">$2</div>

This instead:

'<div style="float: $1; margin: 1ex;">$2</div>

I am getting the following error

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_DOUBLE_ARROW in /home/sfboarders/public_html/nameless/forum/Sources/Subs.php on line 1015

Lines 1014-1016 below

Code Select Expand

// Floating text/images...
'~\[float=(right|left)\](.+?)\[/float\]~' => '<div style="float: $1;">$2</div>',
// Size the font.  [size=large]HELLO![/size]

Are you using the "faster parsecode" mod?

Are you using the "faster parsecode" mod?

-[Unknown]

yes

[wildcard]

Sources/Subs.php, find:

Code Select Expand

// Size the font.  [size=large]HELLO![/size]

Add above it:

Code Select Expand

// Floating text/images...
'~\[float=(right|left)\](.+?)\[/float\]~' => '<div style="float: $1;">$2</div>',

Then you can use:

IMAGE HERE

How would one achieve this in 1.1 now?
