Convert Wiki format text file to HTML page

[mrby]

Hi,

I see that Wiki's method of editing HTML is rather
simple, for example:
Using *bold* for bold text, and using _itatics_ for
itatic font text.
I wonder if there is available code for this purpose?

Thanks much!

Not sure, which Wiki software use such syntax. You may use some
regular expressions for that. Or number of Wiki written in PHP are
available on the net. You may look at the source codes.

Only using regular expressions for textparsing is usually not a good
idea. First problem you encounter are nested *tags*

Perhaps you could have a look at the HTML_BBCodeParser package
(http://pear.php.net) and rewrite the basic filter to suit your needs?

The easies way to do this is to use a wrapper script around txt2tags:

http://txt2tags.sourceforge.net/

copy the txt2tags file into your webroot, in your 'edit mode' submit a
form to it with the correct paarmenters to convert your trivial mark
up into html, in your 'view' mode, include the html.

This is only one simple way.

Cheers.

I found such a package in the same site!
http://pear.php.net/package/Text_Wiki/

It seems exactly what I wanted

Thanks much!
