[PHP] Regex help...
Hi All, I rather badly need some help with a regular expression. I need to identify the occurrence of the following search string in another string, and replace it with some text followed by the identified search string. search string pa href=http://mysite/index.php?p=2#more-2;(more#8230;)/a/p /search string The consistent part of the string is the text (more#8230;)/a/p Essentially, I'm trying to figure out how to insert text prior to the opening p in this line. Can anyone give me a hand in working this out? Many thanks in advance! Much warmth, Murray

RE: [PHP] dirty words
Hey!
Thanks, I think in_array() is what I was looking for,
but by a quick glance I think its case sensitive (?),
I didnt want to use a class for this coz it kind of
seemed like using a gun instead of a flyswatter
:-)
Also, any way to check if a remote file exists?
I am presently using this:
$url='http://www.blah.net/movie.mpg';
$addy=parse_url($url);
$addy['port']=isset($addy['port'])?$addy['port']:80;
$sh=fsockopen($addy['host'],$addy['port']) or
die('cant open socket');
fputs($sh,HEAD {$addy['path']} HTTP/1.1\r\nHost:
{$addy['host']}\r\n\r\n);
while($line=fgets($sh))
if(preg_match('/^Content-Length: (d+)/',$line,$m))
$size=$m[1];
echo isset($size)?size of $url file is $size: 'no
such file: '.$url;
Thanks,
Mag
in_array() can check your $string against a array
and return if a bad word
is in string

In the above example, the preg_match would be applied twice, once with a
$fn[1] value of 1, the second time with a $fn[1] value of 2. The $content
variable contains the string above.
Not sure why you would want to apply the regex more than once. You use:
preg_match_all('/^\[\[ft\d{1}:(.*)]]$/m', $content, $ft)
That will match ft0 upto ft9, season to taste.

Of course, this only works assuming that the would-be hacker doesn't know

mix it up, use a rather unique variable name and or use a value that is hard

[PHP] Another regex problem - help!
Hi All, I'm trying to match a particular pattern in a multi-line string. The string might look like: string Some text. Some more text. [[ft1: An example of the search string [[fn2 [[ft2: Another example of a search string]] Extra text /string In this case, I'm trying to perform a preg_match using the following expression: preg_match(/^\[\[ft.$fn[1].:(.*)\]\]$/m,$content,$ft); In the above example, the preg_match would be applied twice, once with a $fn[1] value of 1, the second time with a $fn[1] value of 2. The $content variable contains the string above. I'm attempting to accommodate a situation where the target string might contain ]] before I want the capture to finish, as in the first example above. I'm hoping to return both the whole value matched by the preg_match, as well as the content of the matched string after the : character up to the final closing ]] for the line. In essence, the closing ]] for the match should always be at the end of the line. My attempt to build a pattern, as above, isn't working. I'm wondering if anyone can give me some advice on how to fix it?
