I certainly wouldn't use this code for production but if you're just
debugging or something then how about something like this:

<?php
    $handle = @fopen('page.htm', 'r');
    if ($handle) {
        while (!feof($handle)) {
            $eos = trim(fgets($handle, 4096));
            if (strpos($eos,"<div>") !== FALSE) { $echo_output = TRUE; }
            if (strpos($eos,"<\div>") !== FALSE) { $echo_output = FALSE; }
            if ($echo_output == TRUE) { echo $eos; }
        }
        fclose($handle);
    }
?>

Hello,

I am trying read text out of a text that is inbetween two divs.
Somehow this should be possible with regex, I just can't figure out
how.

Example:

<div id="test">
bla blub
</div>

I would like to extract the text "bla blub" out of this example.

This might do the trick (not tested):

preg_match( "/<div\s+[^>]*>([^<]*)<\/div>", $yourtext, $match );
print $match[1];

Sorry about the top-post.  I forgot. :)



Thank you everbody. I figured it out without regex. It's not for production, just testing:
	$pos_1 = strpos($contents, $word1);
	$pos_2 = strpos($contents, $word2, $pos_1);
	$text = strip_tags(substr($contents, $pos_1, $pos_2 - $pos_1));

That works as well.
