Implement Error 447

There's a humorous pseudo-RFC which establishes HTTP Error 447 as "dropped in Pacific Ocean". Here's some PHP to implement it, if you'd like. Sends the right header, and even looks like a standard Apache 2 error page.

<?php

header("HTTP/1.1 447 Dropped by Accident in the Pacific Ocean");
print("\"1.0\" encoding=\"ISO-8859-1\"?>");
?>DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN"
    "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en">
<head>
<title>Dropped in Ocean!title>
/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
"made" href="mailto:webmaster@example.com" />





Dropped in Ocean!








    The requested item was accidentally dropped in
    the Pacific Ocean while being transmitted to your
    computer, and cannot be displayed.

  



If you think this is a server error, please contact
the "mailto:webmaster@example.com">webmaster.

Extensible search highlighting in PHP

Based on Dean's original Google Hilite, but refactored a bit to make it easy to add support for more search engines (currently supports some 20-odd major searches).

<?php

function search_highlight($text)  {
  $referer = $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'];

  //Did they get here from a search?
  if((preg_match('/www\.google.*/i',$referer) && !preg_match('/^http:\/\/www\.google\.com\//i', $referer))
     || preg_match('/search\.atomz.*/i',$referer)
     || preg_match('/search\.msn.*/i',$referer)
     || preg_match('/search\.yahoo.*/i',$referer)
     || preg_match('/msxml\.excite\.com/i', $referer)

For Ray

In response to his question here, assuming your content is in a string called $content:

$num_paras = substr_count($content, '
'); 
switch ($num_paras) {
  case 1:
    $image = 'one.jpg';
    break;
  case 2:
    $image = 'two.jpg';
    break;
  case 3:
    $image = 'three.jpg';
    break;
  default:
    $image = '';
    break;
}
