Don't be rude. I've already don't all of that. Nothing came up. I've been programming for 20 years (since I was 11 years old) so I'm not a slacker when it comes to learning new things, however, I have always found regular expressions to be extremely difficult. Someone here might have the answer I need, and if so, I'd appreciate a response. If you don't know the answer, don't reply. Simple enough, don't you think? -----Original Message----- From: Jochem Maas [mailto:jochem@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Tuesday, May 16, 2006 4:28 PM To: Robert Samuel White Cc: php-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: Regex Help for URL's Robert Samuel White wrote: > Can someone help me modify the following code? > > It was designed to search for all instances of [LEVEL#]...[/LEVEL#] > > I need a preg_match_all that will search for all of instances of an URL. > > It should be sophisticated enough to find something as complicated as this: > > http(s)://x.y.z.domain.com/dir/dir/file.name.ext?query=1&query=2#anchor > > Any help would be greatly appreciated! so your looking for a regular expression that is *totally* different from the regular expression you have... the two have nothing in common. do you expect us to do the complete rewrite for you or do you want to learn abit about regexps yourself? (that probably sounds arrogant, so it might help to know even the most experienced people (a group I don't consider myself part of) here have [and do] get told to RTFM on occasion - no one is safe ;-) I suggest using a search engine to start with and see what that turns up... somehow I can't believe that nobody has ever written a regexp that matches urls, for instance try reading this page in the manual (hint: look at the the user notes) http://php.net/preg_match come back when/if you get stuck. > > preg_match_all('#\[LEVEL([0-9])\](.*)\[/LEVEL[0-9]]#Uim', $arcContent, > $tmpMatches); > > $arcContent = preg_replace('#\[LEVEL([0-9])\](.*)\[/LEVEL[0-9]]#Uim', > '###URL###', $arcContent); > -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
