Hi all,
I need a help to write a simple preg_match.
Imagine, I've got like 5kb of text where one part of the text always
starts with: [quote:129beec637]
and ends with: [/quote:129beec637]
Number after "[quote:" is always different and changing its length.
I need to parse this and display it using different color.
Just so, when I display the text, people could figure out where the
quotation starts and ends.
Could someone please help me with it?
Thanks a lot. Every help is very appreciated and helps me a lot.

Do you want to echo the literal text: [quote etc] or what's between the
quote tags ?
Hi Pjotr,
I need to echo only the original text between "quote:"
Thanks for trying to help me.

I assumed the number is a hexadecimal number.
Number after "[quote:" is always different and changing its length.
<?php
$text = 'before [quote:1abc08f] middle [/quote:1abc08f] after';
$rx = '/\[quote:([0-9a-fA-f]+)\](.*)\[\/quote:\1\]/';
$text2 = preg_replace($rx, '***\2***', $text);
echo $text, "\n";
echo $text2, "\n";
?>
I need to parse this and display it using different color.
Replace the "***" with whatever you prefer.

Happy Coding :-)
