[PHP] How do I...

[Mentor]

if your useing a function your not familiur with i suggest checking php.net, very useful

http://uk.php.net/preg_match

Pretty much anything im gona say about its in there anyway, the preg functions are always a bit confusieng due to regex with still often shows itself to be a pain in the ****

$userinput = "ban: bob";

if (preg_match("/ban: /i",$userinput )) {
// invoke ban script,
$ban = explode(" ", $ban);
$Persontoban =$ban['1']

// Banning script here
} else {
// Add the info normaly

}


Hope that quick crap helps

Its not that im not good, its that i havent used this yet..

Just to cofirm $ban is the username in the code?

Edit:

if ($logged[level] == 12 && stristr($shout, ":ban"))
    {
        $shout = $_POST[shout]; //Assume this is $_POST[shout]
        if (stristr($shout, ":ban"))
            {
                $ban = explode(" ", $ban);
                $ban['0'] = "";
$result = mysql_query("UPDATE `users` SET `banned` = 'banned' WHERE `username` = '$ban'") or die ('Error during the execution of the MySQL query : ' . mysql_error());

$query = mysql_query("INSERT INTO `ban` (`id` , `username` , `time`) VALUES ('', '$ban', '$days-$date')") or die ('Error during the execution of the MySQL query : ' . mysql_error());

$alert = mysql_query("UPDATE `users` SET `alert` = 'You have been banned and can no longer use the Site' WHERE `username` = '$user'") or die ('Error during the execution of the MySQL query : ' . mysql_error());
            }
    }else{ 

Right or wrong?

o.0 your useing a varible before you set it, and then repateing the code uselessly.
Your also misuseing the explode impolded copy Heinous gave you...

Get shout imput.
$shout = $_POST[shout];
// Assuming your ban code is "ban: MrUser"
if ($logged[level] == 12 && stristr($shout, "ban: "))
    {
//since they have banning permission (im guesing) and "ban: " is in the input, we must be banning someone

//Exsplode the space in shout
 $ban = explode(" ", $shout);
// the explode implode is more for when concatinaginng an undefined string length, since the syntax of the input of known its far easy just to drag the second chunk, 1 in this case.
$usertoban = $ban['1'];

// SHOVE ALL YA MYSQL FOR BAN HERE

}else{
//no ban syntax found, just update post as normal

//CODE HERE

}

You need the implode statement, like I posted, BEFORE sql queries. But yes, $ban is the username.
