Hi,
I need to grab the what's between 2 markers in a Textile / html

I'd like to grab the contents of left, right and main individually so
I can place them in separate form fields.
Any help greatly appreciated. I'm certain this is a cinch for people
who use regex often.
It's really not that hard if you use three separate expressions:
$left = preg_match('/<OPEN_LEFT_COLUMN>(.*)<CLOSE_LEFT_COLUMN>/is',
$text, $matches);
$right = preg_match('/<OPEN_RIGHT_COLUMN>(.*)<CLOSE_RIGHT_COLUMN>/is',
$text, $matches);
$main = preg_match('/<OPEN_MAIN_COLUMN>(.*)<CLOSE_MAIN_COLUMN>/is',
$text, $matches);
And then, IIRC, the content you're after will be in $matches[1].
