[SOLVED] Grab content between <tags> in text file..
Posted: Thu Mar 11, 2004 1:01 am
Hi guys..
I'm seriously going nuts here!!
I need to grab all content between 2 tags in a text file on my server.
example: I need all of this
START....
{ I'm just using the forum PHP feature to make it easy to see certain stuff in here
}
END....
out of the text file/page into variable(s) so that I can write them back to the file.
Why do I need to do this???
I am working on a template system that uses a MSHTML WYSIWYG editor and because of the MSHTML crap, I can only get everything BETWEEN the <body> Only this source </body> tags into the WYSIWYG edit field.
So when the page editing is done, and you click save, it only writes
back to the file/page. This is no good... I need the head of the document back into the file for the meta tags and style and so on.... Thats why I need to grab the head of the document to be able to write it back.
When I was using just a textarea field it was fine.. But for someone that does not know html, that would be impossible to edit a page looking at a bunch of code.
I use this to OPEN FILE
then just echo/print the $file_content in the WYSIWYG field.
Once the changes are made and save is clicked WRITE TO FILE
Any help would be GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!
an actual sample code to do this would be EXCELLENT!
Thank you in advance
