Formating Text with homemade SQL query

Hello,

I have made a plugin whitch select posts by different dates (deaddate, startdate, enddate…). I have add the fields in the DB first. So I’m fighting with something relatively hard I think (for me it’s sure ! :-)).

I have make everything work but one thing : my post title, when they are display, don’t have italic or bold, etc. I have search for the WP fonction, I found “apply_filters” but when I use it, it says to me there is a missing argument… but whitch ??? I’m stopped by this.

One of my homemade (almost perfect) functions :

function parutions($categorie, $nouveau, $limite) {
global $wpdb;
$now = current_time(‘mysql’);
$arcresults2 = $wpdb->get_results(“SELECT ID, post_title, post_date FROM ” . $wpdb->posts . ” LEFT JOIN wp_post2cat ON (wp_posts.ID = wp_post2cat.post_id) WHERE category_id = $categorie AND post_date <‘” . $now . “‘ AND post_status=’publish’ AND post_password=” ORDER BY post_date DESC LIMIT $limite”);

if ($arcresults2) {
foreach ($arcresults2 as $arcresult2) {

if ($arcresult2->post_date != ‘0000-00-00 00:00:00’)
{$url = get_permalink($arcresult2->ID);
$arc_title = $arcresult2->post_title;

if ($arc_title)

$text = strip_tags($arc_title);

else

$text = $arcresult2->ID;
$title_text = wp_specialchars($text, 1);

echo “<img src=’http://www.cometes.org/images/annonces_puce.png&#8217; alt=’puce’ /> “;

// Si Nouveau

$datedepublication = $arcresult2->post_date;
$datedujour = current_time(‘mysql’);
$ecart=nbjours($datedepublication,$datedujour);

if ($ecart<=$nouveau){

echo “<span id=nouveau class=nouveau>”;
echo “nouveau”;

// Si Posté ce jour
$ecart=nbjours($datedepublication,$datedujour);
if ($ecart<=1){ echo ” <span id=postecejour class=postecejour>(posté ce jour)</span>”; }

// fin si Posté ce jour

echo ” : “;
echo “</span>”;

}

// fin Si Nouveau

echo”“;
echo “$text”;
echo “
“;

}

else

{ echo “Aucune annonce pour le moment !”; }

}}}

Thanks for any help from any planet ! 🙂
