How about just using an xml-based function? Much cleaner, doesn't
require name-attribute to be present before value-attribute.
';
$x = xml_parser_create();
xml_parse_into_struct($x,$string,$array);
print $array[0]['attributes']['VALUE'];
// or, out of curiousity:
var_dump($array);
?>
(and why preg_replace? $1 wouldn't even be set since no capturing
parenthesises are used)

Re: [PHP] Parsing HTML files
No easy way of doing it, regex somthing like:
$id = preg_replace("/.*/", $1, $string);
where $string is a line from your input'd HTML page

[PHP] Parsing HTML files
Hi all, I was wondering if any classes/functions could help me with this little challenge, (im hopeless at regex ;-) I want to extract the value of 'id' from a webpage. Any simple way to do this or am I down to sweating of the regex functions? Much thanks -- Nick W -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] Parsing HTML files?
For parsing, your best bet would be regular expressions. If you aren't familiar with them, then this would most likely be a custom programming job, as there's no such thing as an off the shelf parsing routine. www.php.net/preg_match_all would be the best function to use to parse, and you should get the input via either www.php.net/fopen or www.php.net/file /* Chris Lambert, CTO - [EMAIL PROTECTED] WhiteCrown Networks - More Than White Hats Web Application Security - www.whitecrown.net */ - Original Message - From: Jeff Lewis <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Saturday, July 07, 2001 2:18 PM Subject: [PHP] Parsing HTML files? | Is it possible to parse an HTML like at: | http://hyrum.net/wwbl/HTML/watrost.htm ? | | I'd like to be able to grab the player name and ratings and add them to a | "pretty" HTML output :) | | Jeff | -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: [PHP] Parsing HTML files?
Yeah it is doable, just use fsockopen, and parse the input into your database and go wild. Keep in mind - doing it directly on request is VERY slow. You should be pre-parsing it and then showing the data from your resources.

[PHP] Parsing HTML files from an external web server
Hello List.
I'm having a little trouble with parsing HTML files and inputting the data
from
the HTML file into a MySQL database. I get the following error when trying
toparse the file.
Warning: file("http://www.server.com/file.htm";) - No error in
d:\webpages\world\lists.php on line 8
The following is part of my php code
http://www.server.com/file.htm";;
$fileArray = file($url);
$state = 0;
$line = 0;
$ProvinceCount = 0;
$Details = Array();
I then have more code which parses the file and parses the data and puts it in
an array.
I was wondering whether anybody could provide information as to what the
possible problem could be. If you want more information, please contact me
off-list.
Thanks,
James
