Re: [PHP] comparing xml files, removing some html tags
Thanks to all (actually just one) that answered my question. Unfortunatelly I was hoping a more complete answer since the part I asked was not the main goal... bu t anyway... I'd like to ask then if the viewers could validate my new approach or at least point ways of actually implementing it. Suppose I use Xerces and tidy to turn two html files into two xhtml ones. I'd like to remove the data found between the Tags and generate two new files only with the scructure elements (tables, Br, p and so on). Then I could use regular diff from unix and if they differ in more than X% I assume they are different. Assuming that this approach is ok any tips regarding the actual implementation ? Any snippets of code would be great. __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Re: [PHP] comparing xml files, removing some html tags
Hi, Discussion of xerces will take us out of the mandate of this list. Please download xerces from http://xml.apache.org along with the documents and you will see plenty of sample codes. You might also want to look at IBM's developer site (IBM created the bulk of xerces) all the best raditha Robert Mena wrote: Thanks to all (actually just one) that answered my question.

[PHP] comparing xml files, removing some html tags
Hi, I need to compare two XML files in order to find if they are similar, i.e their DOM tree have the same structure. The ideia is to use Xerces to balance HTML files in order to create Xhtml and then compare. To make things a little easier for Xerces I am considering to remove some elements that do not make diference for my similarity point of view, for example, script/script tags, before calling xerces. So I was wondering which regular expression should I use to remove the scriptcontent/script and so on... regards. __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
