I am at the tailend of a project that involves moving
legacy data from one dbms to another. The client has
added a new requirement to the data manipulation that
is required. I need to remove all <br /> tags (there
may be more that one) that appear within all <h*>
tags.
I am not very familiar with building regular
expressions, but I see this as a 2 part process.
First, to grab <h*> tags, and second, to strip the
br's.
I can grab the beginning of the tag easily, but my
expressions grab too much.
Also, I am not sure how to remove the br's.
Any help would be appreciated. I have tried to find
similar examples, but without any luck. Also, php5 is
not an option at this point.

$text = preg_replace('!(<h\d[^>]*>.*?)<br/>(.*?</h\d>)!is', '\1\2', $text);
You may also have to do this several times as this will only get one
br per <h> tag.
$newText = $text;
do {
$text = $newText;
$newText = preg_replace('!(<h\d[^>]*>.*?)<br/>(.*?</h\d>)!is', '\1\2', $text);
} while($text != $newText);

Forget my first attempt, using the e modifier and another preg_replace
is much better.
$return = preg_replace('!<h(\d)>(.*?)</h\1>!ie',
'preg_replace("!<br[^>]*>!i", "", "$1")', $originalText);

I'll attempt to reverify by dumping data back out again and comparing
size. I suspect it is, however.
Ie. The login succeeds because a cookie is set, and I can go to some
scripts, but not others.
Even if it isn't, how could this stop Apache from logging even an error?

Have done this too in initial tests, I just got sick of typing password
all the time :)

Why would Apache log an error on a db dump? Or are you talking about
the execution of the scripts after you import the data? If the latter
try setting your php error reporting to E_ALL in a .htaccess file (or in
the php.ini if you have access to that).
For .htaccess :
php_value error_reporting "E_ALL"
If you set it in the php.ini, make sure to restart your web server.

Suppoedly, all code from PHP4 is backwards compatible with PHP5. I think
the only major re-vamp was its Object Oriented Model.

My opininon would be to wait on maybe 5.0.1, especially if its on a production
box. Im not having an absolute blast with it on my dev boxes...

Sorry,
Here is the code I am using to match the <h*> tags:
<h([1-9]){1}>.*</h([1-9]){1}>
I have removed all the NL and CR chars from the string
I am matching to make things easier. Also, I have run
tidy on the code so the tags are all uniform.
The above string seems to match the tag well now, but
I still need to remove the br tags from the tag
contents (.*).
The strings I will be matching are html formatted
text. Sample <h*> tags with content are below:
<h4>Ex-Secretary Mickey Mouse <br />Loses Mass.
Primary</h4>
<h4>Ex-Secretary Mickey Mouse <br />Loses Mass.
Primary <br /> Wins New Jersey</h4>
<h4>Ex-Secretary Reich Loses Mass. Primary</h4>
Again, any help is appreciated.

You could try something like:
$return = preg_replace('#<h[1-9]>(.*)</h[1-9]>#Uie', 'str_replace("<br
/>", "", "$1")');

Using PHP-5.0 + OpenSSL-0.9.7c + PHP5-Openssl extension, trying to use a
specific extension section within the openssl.cnf file appears to not
work, or fail without any returned error, when specifying either/both of
"x509_extensions" and "req_extensions" in the configarg array. Only
sections defined to "x509_extensions" and "req_extensions" assigned in the
openssl.cnf file appear to be used.

I've compiled & installed software from source before but PHP 5 is
proving a challenge.
I've decompressed the tarball and cd into the directory. Run
./configure which seems to work ok but then when I do make I get the
following error:
"No targets specified and no makefile found"
Sure enough there is no makefile in the directory so for some reason
./configure isn't creating one.
Can anyone offer any help?
Thanks

Thanks! Works like a charm!
I am the very lowest of newbies when it comes to regex
and working through your solutions has been very
educational. I have one question about something I
couldn't figure out:
#<h[1-9]>(.*)</h[1-9]>#Uie
`<h([1-6])>.*?</h\1)>`sie
What is the purpose of the back-ticks and the '#'?
What are 'Uie' and 'sie'?
Thanks again!
Kathleen

I've built a system which uploads a tab-delimited text file saved from
Excel, then uses the text file to update a MySQL database. But when the
text file contains an "é" character (confirmed by viewing in a text
editor before uploading), the character is converted to some other
weird character -- a capital Z with what looks like an inverted
circumflex accent above it. This replacement character is stored in the
database and output to HTML pages. It doesn't matter if I use
htmlentites() on the data before storing in MySQL, the weird Z
character is still what's written to the database. And I'm not able to
do a string replacement to make it "é" again (or "é"), because
when I paste the weird accented Z character into a PHP file and save,
the character is converted into " }" (a space and closing bracket).
Perhaps this isn't a PHP problem, but can anyone point me towards a
solution? Setup is PHP 4.3.2 on FreeBSD 4.10, Apache 1.3.27.
TIA

I'm having problems upgrading PHP from 4.2.2 to 4.3.8 on RedHat 9. I've
tried simply making the 4.3.8 from source, but RedHat didn't use the default
PHP folder structure is seems, since there has been no change in my PHP
version. I also tried the "./configure" string returned by 'phpinfo()'
(assuming that the correct path info was included) with no luck. Does
anyone have any tips on an easier way to upgrade?
Thanks,
Will
