Extracting Captions From Jpegs
I tried searching this forum to see if anyone had asked about extracting caption information from jpegs, but I couldn't find any posts. I also checked the online documentation at PHP.net to no avail. I know that it's possible to extract the EXIF data from a jpeg, but as far as I can tell, that data doesn't include the caption (or other information you can set via Photoshop and other graphics programs). To simplify writing text for my alt tags, it would be awesome to be able to simply extract the caption data from a jpeg and use that. Has anyone ever done this successfully? If so, how?

Extracting Data Via URL In Browser
I'm trying to learn PHP right now, and am having trouble hammering down some of the basic concepts. I've set up a database in mysql and got that working, but now I want to use that data to make writing my web pages easier. Basically all I want to do is extract different rows of my db table dynamically by only changing what I write in the url (I've seen how on php pages, the url in the browser will sometimes look like ....index.php id=5....) so that I dont have to manually create each page with each set of data like i am now with just basic html.
Extracting Database Entries
I have a non-profit's web site that wishes to allow their members to fill out information regarding summer camp information (name, contact info, mailing info, physician's name, etc) online and submit it. I can handle taking the info with PHP and putting it into a mySQL database easily. But what has me stuck is that they want the ability to print out hard copies of selected submissions (their choice) if they need to. Would I have to display all the database entries in a form on a new page with a select box next to each entry and have them pick that way, then loop through and print out the selected ones or is there a better, more direct (read: easier) way to accomplish this? Does this sound like something for which there may be a pre-written PHP script that can be altered?
Finding And Extracting From A String

And turn it into array so that I can later operate on these strings. And second, variation of it: To get whole lines that contain some characters like 3 digits from a number second b) :) to extract only nmbers with some digits not whole lines.

Extracting Values From An Array Session!
I am working in a project to add personal info into DB. For some fields I use session to keep values before putting them into DB. So I wrote a test code to insert phone numbers into a session and at the end put it into DB. The problem is, I can wirite into the session but don't know how to extract them, as it's an array.

Extracting Data From Database Using Three Strings
I am a complete newbie. I have been working on a self-learning project that will ask users for three strings (i.e. name,dob and number. If details are correct, will vector to a new page and display all their other information unique to their name,dob and number. The second page will then display their school,work,address, etc. which is editable.

Here is the php for the first page which asks the name,dob and number:
Extracting Specified HTML Tags With Regex
I have a regex problem, spent about 7 hours on this now, but I don't find the answer in the manual and googling, though I think this must have been discussed before. I try to simply extract the title and meta tags of a valid HTML page as an array: function extract_html($filename) { $ret = array(); // put file into string $contents = file_get_contents($filename); // title $p = preg_match_all('<(title|TITLE)>(.+)</(title|TITLE)>', $contents, $matches); if ($p > 0) { $ret[] = $matches[0][0]; } // metatags $p = preg_match_all("<(meta|META)(.+)>", $contents, $matches); if ($p > 0) { for ($i=0; $i<$p; $i++) { $ret[] = $matches[0][$i]; } } return $ret; } What happens is: - The title part gets no match - The meta matches are correct, but miss the opening < The examples I have seen in the manual all seem to have no problem with < and > in the patterns. I don't know where to look and also don't understand all parts of the regex section.
Extracting Parts Of An Html File
Given a regular formed html document, what would be the easiest way to grab 3 parts of the file? 1- everything from beginning of file up to and including the <body> tag 2- everything between the <body> and </body> tags 3- everything from and including the </body> tag to the end of file Storing the contents of the file into an array I think would be best but I can read the 2nd set into an array if I could figure out how to isolate it.
Saving And Extracting Forms, PHP To Database
I'm having to save HTML forms that include PHP strings into a database so that I can display them upon request. The HTML/PHP is entered into a <textarea> and written to the db in the usual way. One note: Because this is an Oracle db, I've written my own little "stripslashes" function for Oracle (because Oracle doesn't care for the standard stripslashes() function for some reason), so you'll see that in the following code. Here's how I'm writing it to the db: $code = addoracleslashes(htmlentities($_POST['code'])); and then I use echo stripslashes(html_entity_decode($code)) to display it on the page. However, the embedded PHP (fwiw, <?php echo $_POST['formdata']; ?> in the value of each field) is displayed as text, so that my form fields are filled with my PHP code. Furthermore, html_entity_decode doesn't seem to be working when I try to echo the data back into a <textarea> for editing.
Extracting Text Between Tags Is Tricky!
Problem: I want to get the whole text between the opening tag <%OPTIONAL%> and the closing tag <%/OPTIONAL%>. The right block is found by (and contains) the placeholder {#xmreisepop_reisepreistext_1_3#}. <%OPTIONAL%> and <%/OPTIONAL%> are not allowed to be inside these tags again. My first idea was: <%OPTIONAL%>(.*?){#xmreisepop_reisepreistext_1_3#}(.*?)<%/OPTIONAL%> But this does not work with the following peace of text, because it takes the first <%OPTIONAL%> before and the first <%/OPTIONAL%> after the placeholder. <%OPTIONAL%> ....bla bla bla.... <%/OPTIONAL%> .... <%OPTIONAL%> .... {#xmreisepop_reisepreistext_1_3#} .... <%/OPTIONAL%> Then I tried it with this version: <%OPTIONAL%>(.*)(?!(<%OPTIONAL%>|<%/OPTIONAL%>)){#xmreisepop_reisepreistext_1_3#}(.*?)<%/OPTIONAL%> No success!
Extracting Data From Inside A PHP Tag In A File.
I need to find a line in a file, such as: <?php $title="This is the text I want." ?> and insert only what's inside the quotes into a mySQL table. I have no trouble using strstr() to find the <?php $title= part, but then my "needle" returned contains all of the rest of the file from that point on. So how would I "extract" that information from inside the file? Or even all of the text that is between <h2> and </h2> tags, for instance?

Help - Regexp For Extracting A String From A Larger String
I am developing a very basic CMS for a website I'm working on. One of the requirements is for the client to be able to post an image in their news posts, as well as links.
