I have this array that contains a message for a user. This is contained in variable $arr which is an array.
$arr looks like this when using var_dump()
What I want to do is to merge the tables in [0] and [1] and have a result like this.
Please mention the things that I missed or you want to know. Any idea/s would be really appreciated!
To concatenate some rows in the same table, you have just to extract them from their original tables and them to a table which is concatenated with the common text parts. For that, take this example :
I'll put my texts in an array :
$data = [
'Dear User2,<br> <br> Sample text <table style="border-collapse:collapse; width:100%" border="solid"> <tr> <th>TH1</th> <th>TH2</th> <th>TH3</th> </tr> <tr> <td style="width:10%"><center>1</center></td> <td style="width:20%"><center>foo1</center></td> <td style="width:20%"><center>foo1</center></td> </tr> </table> <br> Thank you, <br> Admin',
'Dear User2,<br> <br> Sample text <table style="border-collapse:collapse; width:100%" border="solid"> <tr> <th>TH1</th> <th>TH2</th> <th>TH3</th> </tr> <tr> <td style="width:10%"><center>2</center></td> <td style="width:20%"><center>foo2</center></td> <td style="width:20%"><center>foo2</center></td> </tr> </table> <br> Thank you, <br> Admin',
'Dear User2,<br> <br> Sample text <table style="border-collapse:collapse; width:100%" border="solid"> <tr> <th>TH1</th> <th>TH2</th> <th>TH3</th> </tr> <tr> <td style="width:10%"><center>3</center></td> <td style="width:20%"><center>foo3</center></td> <td style="width:20%"><center>foo3</center></td> </tr> </table> <br> Thank you, <br> Admin'
];
Common parts are :
Dear User2,<br> <br> Sample text <table style="border-collapse:collapse; width:100%" border="solid"> <tr> <th>TH1</th> <th>TH2</th> <th>TH3</th> </tr>
and
</table> <br> Thank you, <br> Admin
So if the common parts are always the same and with fixed lengths, you can use some substr() to extract what you need like this, for example :
// get common parts
$common_part_1 = substr($data[0], 0, 151);
$common_part_2 = substr($data[0], -36);
$content = '';
// concatenate all content rows
for($i = 0; $i < count($data); $i++){
$content .= get_content($data[$i]);
}
where get_content() is the function that will extract the row containing the targeted text :
function get_content($data){
return substr($data, 151 , strlen($data) - 36 - 151);
}
then
echo $common_part_1 . $content . $common_part_2;
Of course this manner is really very limited, I don't recommend you to use it but I tried to give an idea how you can do ...
The second manner, is to extract your text using regex with preg_match() function :
// extract the 1st content row
$content = get_content($data[0]);
// extract the common parts
$common_parts = str_replace($content, '##content##', $data[0]);
// concatenate all content rows
for($i = 1; $i < count($data); $i++){
$content .= get_content($data[$i]);
}
and
function get_content($data){
$pattern = '/\<\/th\>\s\<\/tr\>(.*)\<\/table\>/';
preg_match($pattern, $data, $matches);
return $matches[1];
}
then
echo str_replace('##content##', $content, $common_parts);
which will give you for both manners something like this :
Hope that can help.
You can split the $message into multiple part.
$message = '
Dear User {APPROVER_SL},<br>
<br>
Sample text
<table style="border-collapse:collapse; width:100%" border="solid">
<tr>
<th>TH1</th>
<th>TH2</th>
<th>TH3</th>
</tr>';
$max = 10 // Your number of lines
for($i =0; $i < $max ; $i++){
$message .= '
<tr>
<td style="width:10%"><center>'.$i.'</center></td>
<td style="width:20%"><center>foo'.$i.'</center></td>
<td style="width:20%"><center>foo'.$i.'</center></td>
</tr>';
}
$message .='
</table>
<br>
Thank you, <br>
{SYSTEM_NAME}';
Try to integrate CSS into the code too so that your code don't look so messy and easier to manage.
Please try this code this is the sample code but you try this logic in that it will definitely help you thanx.....
