[PHP] stripping comments

2003-10-05 Thread zzz 
I'm trying to strip comments out of my code.  I can get it to strip one
section of comments but the problem comes in when I have more then one
comment section to strip.

I am using this: $code = preg_replace('/\/*(.*?)*\//is', '$1', $code) and
need help fixing my regex.


example:


code 1

/* comment 1 */

code 2

/* comment 2 */

code 3

result (bad):
=

code 1

code 3

result (good):
==

code 1

code 2

code 3

How about this:

$code = preg_replace('|/\*.*\*/|msU', '', $code);
