Jochem,
Thank you for responding.
does this one work?:
preg_replace('#^<\!DOCTYPE(.*)<ul[^>]*>#is', '', $htmlPage);
Yes, that works. I don't think I would have every figured that out on my
own - it's certainly much more complicated than the ereg equivalent.
If I may push for just one more example of how to properly use regular
expressions with preg:
It occurs to me that I've been assuming that with regular expressions I
could only remove or change specified text.
What if I wanted to get rid of everything *other* than the specified text?
Can I form an expression that would take $htmlPage and delete everything
*except* text that is between a <li> tag and a <br> tag?
Or is that something that requires much more than a single use of
preg_replace?
