Emoji Borders and Backgrounds in Image Map Grid Tutorial

Further to yesterday’s Emoji Borders and Backgrounds in Inhouse Slideshow Deployment Tutorial were you around when we presented Image Map Grid Styling Email Share Tutorial?

Well, it’s our “second cab off the rank” regarding a parent idea to oversee our current PHP tool idea for Emoji Borders and Backgrounds.

Anything new? Well, yes, quite a big concept too. With our PHP tool, today, we are allowing it, for a PHP parent (today’s changed imagegridmap.php‘s live run), to fill in a

<?php

var tableih='<table id=oneandonly style=\"' + tw + th + 'background:" . $opprefix . "URL(" . backg("' + indu + '") . ");background-repeat:no-repeat;background-size:' + tcover + ';' + tcss + '\"><tbody id=oneandonlytbody style=\"width:100%;' + 'height:100%;\"></tbody></table>';

?>

… background image (to a table element) data URI with mimetype image/svg+xml and base64 encoding via …

<?php

function backg($indef) {
global $prebimg, $bimg, $udirname, $poemoji;
$udirnameprebimg=$udirname . $prebimg;
if (isset($_GET['iurl'])) {
$udirnameprebimg=str_replace('+',' ',urldecode($_GET['iurl']));
} else if (isset($_POST['iurl'])) {
$udirnameprebimg=str_replace('+',' ',urldecode($_POST['iurl']));
}
if (isset($_GET['emoji'])) {
$poemoji='<input type=hidden id=emoji name=emoji value="' . str_replace('+','',urldecode($_GET['emoji'])) . '"></input>';
list($wdt, $hgt) = getimagesize($udirnameprebimg);
if ($wdt > 0 && $hgt > 0) {
//echo $udirname . "1:" . $hgt;
return file_get_contents($udirname . "../inline_svg.php?asbackground=y&imaXge=" . urlencode($udirnameprebimg) . "&width=" . (-20 + $wdt) . "&height=" . (-20 + $hgt) . "&insvg=" . str_replace('+','',urldecode($_GET['emoji']))) . '),URL(' . $indef;
} else {
//echo "2:" . $hgt;
return file_get_contents($udirname . "../inline_svg.php?asbackground=y&image=" . urlencode($udirnameprebimg) . "&insvg=" . str_replace('+','',urldecode($_GET['emoji']))) . '),URL(' . $indef;
}
} else if (isset($_POST['emoji'])) {
$poemoji='<input type=hidden id=emoji name=emoji value="' . str_replace('+','',urldecode($_POST['emoji'])) . '"></input>';
list($wdt, $hgt) = getimagesize($udirnameprebimg);
if ($wdt > 0 && $hgt > 0) {
return file_get_contents($udirname . "../inline_svg.php?asbackground=y&imaXge=" . urlencode($udirnameprebimg) . "&width=" . (-20 + $wdt) . "&height=" . (-20 + $hgt) . "&insvg=" . str_replace('+','',urldecode($_POST['emoji']))) . '),URL(' . $indef;
} else {
return file_get_contents($udirname . "../inline_svg.php?asbackground=y&image=" . urlencode($udirnameprebimg) . "&insvg=" . str_replace('+','',urldecode($_POST['emoji']))) . '),URL(' . $indef;
}
} else {
return $indef;
}
}

?>

Interesting idea, don’t you think?

It meant a division of two “threads” of modus operandi (possible by “overriding” the PHP echo function into an inhouse “ourecho” (wrapper style of) function), now, for our changed inline_svg.php PHP tool’s PHP tool live run

<?php

$asbkg=false;
$whati='image';

if (isset($_GET['asbackground']) || isset($_POST['asbackground'])) {
$asbkg=true;
$whati='youllneverfindthis';
} else {
header('Content-type: image/svg+xml');
}

// In here are echo"ourecho" codeline calls to construct the SVG+XML

function ourecho($inh) {
global $asbkg;
if ($asbkg) {
echo "data:image/svg+xml;base64," . base64_encode('<svg' . explode('<svg', explode('</svg>', $inh)[0])[1] . '</svg>');
} else {
echo $inh;
}
}


?>

And don’t you just love “the two steptwo thread jive”!

The deployment aspects to yesterday’s Emoji Borders and Backgrounds in Inhouse Slideshow Tutorial “Inhouse Slideshow” PHP functionality are in our sights today … happy holidays!

Emoji Borders and Backgrounds in Inhouse Slideshow Tutorial

Continuing on from yesterday’s Emoji Borders and Backgrounds via Emoji Menu Tutorial and harkening back to Emoji Borders and Backgrounds Image Text Parent Tutorial‘s …

… the functionalities that would be “cool” at the HTML/Javascript/CSS parent side, and then work out how to implement similar functionality, as possible, in SVG, and if possible, we should be able to pass arguments over to the “PHP tool” to eventually code it to be standalone to help other “parenting arrangements”.

… today’s “theme” concerns the first of those other “parenting arrangements” mentioned above, our PHP for Inhouse Slideshow presentation display options …

… the new “Emoji Border Slideshow” display option above calling into play our inline_svg.php PHP tool’s live run (“Are we there yet, as a tool, I mean … Mum … Dad … anyone?”) web application.

And in so doing, to use an Emoji Menu methodology of selecting your emoji border decoration is “right up your street, Inhouse Slideshow supervisor”.

You will find, examining the changed PHP code representative “first cab off the rank” and “guinea pig” live run that we introduce a non-existant external Javascript call …


<script type='text/javascript' src='/inhouse_slideshow.js' defer></script>

… into the mix. Why? Well, perhaps, first off, you should read some history of this “Inhouse Slideshow” project over time at Inhouse Slideshow Temporary Unzip Tutorial and then see that this “external Javascript lark” could be better for a way to “future proof” the venture, with some improvements being changeable through one (into your chosen Document Root folder, wherever that may be (that is what the leading “/” infers)) external Javascript codefile rather than a myriad number of identical PHP codefiles.

Emoji Borders and Backgrounds via Emoji Menu Tutorial

Emoji Borders and Backgrounds via Emoji Menu Tutorial

On this macOS MacBook Air we’re used to …


control-command-space

… bringing up an Emoji Menu from which an emoji can be selected and placed wherever the cursor had been placed before that menu display. That could be …

  • on an address bar where the cursor is placed
  • in a Javascript prompt window that is focussed

… both scenarios (amongst many others, no doubt) of which we will be interested with our current Emoji Borders and Background web application project. Today’s work develops our PHP tool ahead of its supervisory web application, and so we are interested in the first scenario above, as far as testing it goes with our changed underlying inline_svg.php PHP tool live run web application.

The argument “text” is already catered for from yesterday but the nature of the data this $_GET[‘text’] might contain had not catered for …

  • unicode data (via Emoji Menus) … but rather had catered for
  • Javascript call of String.fromCodePoint([comma separated list of HTML Decimal Entity(s)]);

… only, as of yesterday’s Emoji Borders and Backgrounds Image Text PHP SVG Tutorial. As you would probably concur, yesterday’s setup was quite user unfriendly, as so many of us now are used to those Emoji Menus being used to fill in your emoji data requirements.

The main gist of the PHP code changes goes …

<?php

$innards='';
$preinnards='';

function ingp($m) { // thanks to https://pretagteam.com/question/how-do-i-convert-unicode-special-characters-to-html-entities
global $innards, $preinnards;
if ($innards != '') {
$entity = preg_replace_callback('/[\x{80}-\x{10FFFF}]/u', function ($m) {
$char = current($m);
$utf = iconv('UTF-8', 'UCS-4', $char);
return sprintf("&#x%s;", ltrim(strtoupper(bin2hex($utf)), "0"));
}, $innards);
$preinnards=htmlentities($entity);
$innards='';
}
}

// And then later we change ...
if (isset($_GET['insvg'])) {
$innards=str_replace('+','',urldecode($_GET['insvg']));
if (trim(str_replace(',','',str_replace('0','',str_replace('1','',str_replace('2','',str_replace('3','',str_replace('4','',str_replace('5','',str_replace('6','',str_replace('7','',str_replace('8','',str_replace('9','',$innards)))))))))))) != '') {
ingp($innards);
}
if ($preinnards == '') {

$preinnards='&#' . str_replace(',',';&#',$innards) . ';';
}
// rest of if block code uses $preinnards as SVG text innerHTML ... but UTF-16 Surrogate pair scenarios can fail
}

CSS position:absolute and opacity and Javascript [element].getBoundingClientRect() all made guest appearances!
