Hi all!

I just wanted to share a php library I used in conjunction with the
mystic_library.php library of Frank Linhares that I updated.  I've used it as
a base for my website and now I've also created a simple library that will
convert MCI colors and ASCII characters into beautiful HTML images.

I save this file as myconv.php:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
<?php

function myconv($line){

  $line = mci_d_replace($line);
  $line = mci_c_replace($line);
  $line = str_replace("|00", "<span style='color:black;'>", $line);
  $line = str_replace("|01", "<span style='color:darkblue;'>", $line);
  $line = str_replace("|02", "<span style='color:darkgreen;'>", $line);
  $line = str_replace("|03", "<span style='color:darkcyan;'>", $line);
  $line = str_replace("|04", "<span style='color:darkred;'>", $line);
  $line = str_replace("|05", "<span style='color:darkmagenta;'>", $line);
  $line = str_replace("|06", "<span style='color:brown;'>", $line);
  $line = str_replace("|07", "<span style='color:gray;'>", $line);
  $line = str_replace("|08", "<span style='color:darkgray;'>", $line);
  $line = str_replace("|09", "<span style='color:blue;'>", $line);
  $line = str_replace("|10", "<span style='color:lawngreen;'>", $line);
  $line = str_replace("|11", "<span style='color:cyan;'>", $line);
  $line = str_replace("|12", "<span style='color:red;'>", $line);
  $line = str_replace("|13", "<span style='color:magenta;'>", $line);
  $line = str_replace("|14", "<span style='color:yellow;'>", $line);
  $line = str_replace("|15", "<span style='color:white'>", $line);
  $line = str_replace("|16", "<span style='background-color:black;'>", $line);
  $line = str_replace("|17", "<span style='background-color:darkblue;'>",
$line);
  $line = str_replace("|18", "<span style='background-color:darkgreen;'>",
$line);
  $line = str_replace("|19", "<span style='background-color:darkcyan;'>",
$line);
  $line = str_replace("|20", "<span style='background-color:darkred;'>", $line);
  $line = str_replace("|21", "<span style='background-color:darkmagenta;'>",
$line);
  $line = str_replace("|22", "<span style='background-color:brown;'>", $line);
  $line = str_replace("|23", "<span style='background-color:darkgrey;'>",
$line);
  $line = str_replace("|CL", "", $line);
  $line = str_replace("|CR", "", $line);
  $line = str_replace("|PN", "", $line);
  $line=iconv('CP437','UTF-8',$line);

  return $line;
} 

function mci_c_replace($str){

  $cnt=substr_count($str,"|[C");
  for ($x=0;$x<$cnt;$x++){
    $pos=strpos($str,"|[C");
    $ostr=substr($str,$pos,5);
    $len=substr($str,$pos+3,2);
    $nstr=str_pad("",(int) $len," ");
    $str=str_replace($ostr,$nstr,$str);  
    }
  return $str;
}

function mci_d_replace($str){

  $cnt=substr_count($str,"|\$D");
  for ($x=0;$x<$cnt;$x++){
    $pos=strpos($str,"|\$D");
    $ostr=substr($str,$pos,5);
    $len=substr($str,$pos+3,2)-1;
    $nchr=substr($str,$pos+5,1);
    $nstr=str_pad("",(int) $len,$nchr);
    $str=str_replace($ostr,$nstr,$str);  
    }
  return $str;
}

It can be used in your php code like this:

<?php
include "mconv.php";

echo "<table>";
echo "<tr>";
$str=myconv("|01This |02is |03an |04example|05Mystic |06Color |07Codes");
echo "<td>".$str."<td>";
echo "</tr>";
echo "</table>";


It will also convert ASCII characters into UTF-8 HTML format.

You can see a prime example of its use on my website.  Look in the ANSI ART
files area and see how the ASCII art is perfectly rendered.

You can also see an example of how this converts the MCI output of a doorgame
usage generator bulletin.

Let me know if this is helpful to anybody.
