I need a script that will do this - Will pay $3 for help

Alright, I have an article website that I want to monetize a certain way. I would like a script that would allow keywords of my choice to be linked to a website of my choice.

For example: everytime the keyword 'hosting' shows up on my website, I want it linked to my affiliate link for HostGator.

I briefly searched Google and hotScripts, didnt see anything, and os will pay $3 to the first person who links me to a script like this (PayPal). I prefer the script to be free. Thanks

 

It's not the most practical way of doing it, but:

<<--- SEE BELOW --->>

PHP:

This is very limited, as it'll only allow you to replace one word as far as I remember. I'll try and find a better example.

EDIT:

<?php
$string = "blah blah blah hostgator andanother: Xtrm2Matt";
$string = str_replace( "hostgator", "<a href=\"http://www.hostgator.com\">hostgator</a>", $string );
$string = str_replace( "Xtrm2Matt", "<a href=\"http://www.Xtrm2Matt.com\">Xtrm2Matt</a>", $string );
echo $string;
?>

PHP:

 

I really need something that will allow me to place some javascript on the top of the file, similair to intellitxt or kontera - only for me own affiliate links.

Also, I got the following error when I ran that code:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in C:\wamp\www\links.php on line 3


+rep for the assistance though

 

I understand what you are on about.. Give me a minute and Ill do it.

 

<?php

// The text string
$text = "All Content here saying hosting";

// The word we want to replace
$oldWord = "hosting";

// The new word we want in place of the old one
$newWord = "<a href=www.hostgator.com.com>hosting</a>";

// Run through the text and replaces all occurrences of $oldText
$text = str_replace($oldWord , $newWord , $text);

// Display the new text
echo $text;

?>


Hope this helps, with understanding comments.

Simple put all your code into $text = " code here ";

 

Updated my post with a sniplet of code I found in one of my old scripts. That way, you can have a list of things you want to change:

<?php
$string = "blah blah blah hostgator andanother: Xtrm2Matt";
$string = str_replace( "hostgator", "<a href=\"http://www.hostgator.com\">hostgator</a>", $string );
$string = str_replace( "Xtrm2Matt", "<a href=\"http://www.Xtrm2Matt.com\">Xtrm2Matt</a>", $string );
echo $string;
?>

PHP:

That's PHP anyway. As for javascript, the closest I can get is:

<script type="text/javascript">
var str="blah blah blah hostgator";
document.write(str.replace(/hostgator/g, "<a href=\"http://www.hostgator.com\">hostgator</a>")
</script>

Code (markup):

Now this is restricted. I don't know how you'd use this for multiple replaces. Perhaps someone can go from this

 

@Finney

Thanks, but I would need to replace multiple words on each page. It would also be something I need to embed in my article directory script (articledashboard.com)

 

All of these would work perfect for a static site or possibly a blog. For my site though (using the articledashboard.com script) people post their article through the scripts predefined methods and I do not have access to the script code (obfuscated) so I can't see what is handling the article text to pass it into the $string variable.

 

Don't know what else to suggest, sorry! I'll be watching the thread if someone manages to come up with a solution, though

 

Similar to paxis's..

<?php

// The text string
$text = "All Content here";

// The word we want to replace
$oldWord = "hosting";
$oldWord2 = "google";
$oldWord3 = "yahoo";

// The new word we want in place of the old one
$newWord = "<a href=www.hostgator.com>hosting</a>";
$newWord2 = "<a href=www.google.com>google</a>";
$newWord3 = "<a href=www.yahoo.co.uk>yahoo</a>";

// Run through the text and replaces all occurrences of $oldText
$text = str_replace($oldWord , $newWord , $text);
$text = str_replace($oldWord2 , $newWord2 , $text);
$text = str_replace($oldWord3 , $newWord2 , $text);

// Display the new text
echo $text;

?>

 

That code above should work, not 100% positive has I havent tested.

 

The problem is I can't edit the code to put the content into the $string variable

 

Simple put

<?php $text = "

Code (markup):

at the start of your source and then

"; ?>

Code (markup):

at the end of your source. You may have to change all your HTML's " into ' though. Sorry.

 

The reason I can't do it is because the code is obfuscated that is why I was looking more to included a javascipt type widget similiar to IntelliTXT

 

I found a guide that showed you how to do one on the internet somewhere. I attatched an example file on what to do. This is fairly simple, you should be able to figure it out from here.

I am not sure about upload policy here so I just used the forum built in one.

 

PMed you...

 

This is a nice post, thanks for the share.

Never considered this with ArticleDashboard, but a great idea!!!

 

i think he is not a developer
