php question

[Tabris Daxter]

hey all,

this is not really a LSL question but it relates to a SL project i'm working on.

i'm using a free hosting company at the moment an even though it's no ads. inserted into the bottom of EVERY page is this code

<!-- www.000webhost.com Analytics Code -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://analytics.hosting24.com/count.php"></script>
<noscript><a href="http://www.hosting24.com/"><**Only uploaded images may be used in postings**://analytics.hosting24.com/count.php" alt="web hosting" /></a></noscript>
<!-- End Of Analytics Code -->

 and it doesn't show on a webpage but it does show in SL.

i'm using the example scripts from the wiki

key http_request_id;
 
default
{
    state_entry()
    {
        http_request_id = llHTTPRequest("url", [], "");
    }
 
    http_response(key request_id, integer status, list metadata, string body)
    {
        if (request_id == http_request_id)
        {
            llSetText(body, <0,0,1>, 1);
        }
    }
}

 and a bit of modded wiki code

<?PHP
	// Author Waster Skronski.
	// General Public License (GPL).
	// Mind that some headers are not included because they're either useless or unreliable.
	$USE_APACHE_HEADERS = TRUE; // switch to false if you need cgi methods
	if ($USE_APACHE_HEADERS)
	{
		$headers 	= apache_request_headers();
		$objectgrid 	= $headers["X-SecondLife-Shard"];
		$objectname 	= $headers["X-SecondLife-Object-Name"];
		$objectkey     	= $headers["X-SecondLife-Object-Key"];
		$objectpos 	= $headers["X-SecondLife-Local-Position"];
		$ownerkey     	= $headers["X-SecondLife-Owner-Key"];
		$ownername 	= $headers["X-SecondLife-Owner-Name"];
		$regiondata     = $headers["X-SecondLife-Region"];
		$regiontmp 	= explode ("(",$regiondata); // cut cords off 
		$regionpos 	= explode (")",$regiontmp[1]); //
		$regionname 	= substr($regiontmp[0],0,-1); // cut last space from simname
	} else {
		$db = $GLOBALS;
		$headers 		= $db['HTTP_ENV_VARS'];
		$objectgrid 	= $headers["HTTP_X_SECONDLIFE_SHARD"]; 
		$objectname 	= $headers["HTTP_X_SECONDLIFE_OBJECT_NAME"];
		$objectkey     	= $headers["HTTP_X_SECONDLIFE_OBJECT_KEY"];
		$ownerkey     	= $headers["HTTP_X_SECONDLIFE_OWNER_KEY"];
		$objectpos     	= $headers["HTTP_X_SECONDLIFE_LOCAL_POSITION"];
		$ownername 	= $headers["HTTP_X_SECONDLIFE_OWNER_NAME"];
		$regiondata     = $headers["HTTP_X_SECONDLIFE_REGION"];
		$regiontmp 	= explode ("(",$regiondata); 
		$regionpos 	= explode (")",$regiontmp[1]);
		$regionname 	= substr($regiontmp[0],0,-1);
	}
print "\n$regiondata\n$ownername\n$ownerkey\n$ownername";
?>

 Short of finding a new hosting service is there anyway in either LSL or PHP to not print the analytics code?

[Darkie Minotaur]

Not really. The code is added automatically and outside the scope of your php. There are free hosters that don't add any code. Awardspace.com is one, if I remember correctly.

is there a way to search through a string for characters and then delete everything after?

 

 

EDIT:

searching through the wiki and found Function: Left & Function: Right

[Ron Khondji]

Try this:

 

body = llDeleteSubString( body, llSubStringIndex( body, "<!-- www.000webhost.com Analytics Code -->" ), -1 );

 

Edited to add a missing )

[Darkie Minotaur]

This method would be ok for this case - in other cases, the added code could make the result to long to get sent to SL completely. This is also the reason why I wouldn't look for the complete sub string, but would insert some marker to the end of the information you want - e.g.:

print "\n$regiondata\n$ownername\n$ownerkey\n$ownername<END OF INFORMATION>";

 And then in SL get the part in front of the marker:

llGetSubString(body, 0, llSubStringIndex(body, "<END OF INFORMATION>"));

 

 

[Tabris Daxter]

the "garbage" info already has a marker "<!--"

i'm currently using the left function from the wiki.
