Preg_match and Preg_replace trouble regular expressions Please HELP! - Page 3

stoppal

need to extract all text between the following strings, but not
include the strings.
""
"<p align="center"> #### </p>"
I am using preg_match(???? , $s, $results)
but I have had no success. I tried items like.. "".*."<p align="center"> #### </p>"
But have had no luck.
Please any assistenc is appreciated.
In addition, I need to use preg_replace to replace the following:
<a href="/folder2/folder1/folder/*page.html">
with
<a href="site.com= page.php?option *=paper&itemid= page.html">
Again, any help is appreciated. The regular expressions confuse me, my

brain is about to explode from all the trouble shooting, I guess I'm
just not smart emough to figure it out.
PLEASE HELP!!
thanks

Somebody wrote:

preg_match("/\"Title of Firmrecall\".*/",$s,$resul t);

echo $result[0];

displays....
"Title of Firmrecall" The following is the title and

When it should be
"Title of Firmrecall" The following is the title and
this is the next line of the title.
The dot doesn't match newline characters. The s pattern
modifier changes its default meaning so that it matches
newlines as well.

/\"Title of Firmrecall\".*/s
PLEASE HELP!!! I've been working at this non stop but can not get it
working, I'm disperate!!!

It's Sunday, give it a rest for a while, and make the most of
it before it becomes Monday morning.

inserting code inside string, preg_replace help.

by: Juha Suni | last post by:

Hi! I have managed to live without using too much regular expressions so far, and now that I need one, I need some help too. I have a string containing a (possibly large) block of html.

If the string ends in HTML however, I need to fiddle around. for example...

preg_match doesn't work properly!?

by: chadsspameateremail | last post by:

I might have found a problem with how preg_match works though I'm not sure. Lets say you have a regular expression that you want to match a string of numbers. You might write the code like this: preg_match( '/^+$/', $TestString ); OK everything seems fine. However, did you know if you pass the following to preg_match: "12345\n" it will return that a match occurred?!? Even though the newline is not a valid character in our regular...

Problem With Comparison Operator <=> in G++

The easy way to turn off automatic updates for Windows 10/11

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
