Extracting Img Tag Info From HTML Source
I'm having a bit of a brain meltdown trying to figure this out. If anyone has a suggestion I could try, that would be excellent. I'm trying to extract specific pieces of data from an html source file. In particular image tag information. If my file contains lines similar to: <a href="images/picture.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="thumbnails/picture.jpg"></a> I'd like to be able to extract the a href URL and the img src as two seperate variables and ignore any other HTML source and tags inside of the file. For all intents and purposes ending up with an array of the following: $link[0]="images/picture.jpg"; $thumbnail[0]="thumbnails/picture.jpg";

Extracting Info From Array Problem
I am having problems trying to solve an issue with something I would like to do with a site I am creating. I would like to store a bunch of words into an array. Then, I would like to be able to extract all of the words that, say, are repeated at least two times inside of the array. For example, $test_array = array("butter", "bread", "milk", "butter", "bread", "yoghurt", "butter", "eggs", "eggs"); I would like to be able to extract the words that are repeated at least twice, as well as extract the info about how many times they had appeared. So I would have something like butter - 3 times bread - 2 times egss - 2 time I am trying to extract this information, and thought about using a 'foreach' statement, followed by a 'for' statement that would go through the array and try and match the current array value (as retrieved from the 'foreach' statement) with the rest of the values of the array. If there was a match i would increase a counter variable by one. However, I am having lots of troubles with this, and because my knowledge of php is very basic, I am not sure of what to do, or if there is an easier way for me to achieve my aims.

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.

HTML Presentation Page For Uploaded Info?
I've seen a lot of posts about uploading files, but not much about what happens afterwards. Can someone point me to a tutorial, post or book which will help me solve this problem: I'd like to have a form where users can upload a photo, add a short bio, put in some contact info, and have all of this information stored in a database (natch). Then I'd like for this form to take this user's data and put it into an html presentation template. Ideally, members would sign in and be able to modify their own profiles as well as view other profiles.

Extracting The End Of A URL
I am trying too make a script that can check URL's, which I managed too do with no problem at all. I was wondering was there a way my users can enter multiple urls into a textbox and have the script extract the end of each URL. For example, the user submits: http://mydomain.com/files/13039621/2k5pro.part28.rar.html I want the script too delete the first part so it is left with: /13039621/2k5pro.part28.rar.html and place it in an array. It would also need to be able to take a bunch of links at one time, such as: http://mydomain.com/files/35539621/2k5pro.part28.rar.html http://mydomain.com/files/13242343/2k5pro.part29.rar.html http://mydomain.com/files/13423621/2k5pro.part30.rar.html http://mydomain.com/files/13044421/2k5pro.part31.rar.html http://mydomain.com/files/13252331/2k5pro.part32.rar.html http://mydomain.com/files/12449621/2k5pro.part33.rar.html

Extracting Between Commas
I'm working with a database that would take me days to change to the correct format so I'm in need of a workaround. Is it possible to extract text that is in between two commas? I have a long string with multiple commas seperating the values, but it's only the 2nd line that I need for passing on in my code. The best way to explain is example: What's in the database: text123, WHAT I WANT, more stuff, another line of junk, both letters and #'s Can I create a function that turns a variable into "WHAT I WANT"? I know this is weird, but this database has 20,000+ entries and the "part number" I need is within one of the fields...and it's the only way to identify what I need.

"<tag" is unique and only occurs once in the file. I need to assign these values to a couple PHP variables. The number of digits in each number might change. The names "var1" and "var2" will not change, but are not unique (other tags might use the same variable names). What is the best way to do this in PHP?

Extracting Data From Pdf
I was wondering if anyone has any experience processing data or extracting data from pdf documents? I have a group that uses an online system to place orders. Documentation of the order is output in pdf format. The same group uses another (separate) online utility to log and track purchases. I'd like to create a script that can process these pdf's for automated upload into the database the utility extracts from. I found a feature in Acrobat 6.0 called batch processing. One of the predefined processes is to convert a selection of (multiple/single) files to rtf's (rich-text). That is half the battle right there. Unfortunately, I don't see a php function comparable to this Acrobat feature (not surprising since most php functions are for generating pdfs not breaking them down). I'm just beginning to look into this, but my initial/backup plan is to manually convert these saved pdf receipts into rtfs and then process the rtfs using reg exp. Does anyone have any other ideas/methods of processing these documents? Is there a way (script) to automate this conversion from pdf to rtf? Any suggestions, comments, or potential pitfalls would be appreciated.

Extracting Every URL From A Page
Trying to extract every URL from a page, but not having much luck. Can get the page okay, but think there's an issue with my regexes when it comes to matching URLs. I've tried searching for regex examples but they don't seem to work so well. Code follows: $url = $_GET["url"]; $ch = curl_init(); // initialize curl handle curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL,$url); // set url to post to curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FAILONERROR, 1); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1);// allow redirects curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1); // return into a variable curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 20); // times out after 4s //This gets the page $result = curl_exec($ch); // run the whole process // This is the part that doesn't seem to work ereg('https?://([-w.]+)+(:d+)?(/([w/_.]*(?S+)?)?)?',$result,$eventurl); When I print_r($eventurl) I get all the data from the first URL to the end of the page, all contained in the first array item.

ZIP File Extracting
I am trying to set up a form where users upload zips, the zip is extracted into their specific user directory and then the zip file is deleted (These photos are then displayed on their userpage) The problem occurs when someone zips a folder and/or uses mac osx to create the zip. The resource forks (files that begin with ._) get treated as regular images, macosx also creates a folder in the zip called __MACOSX and I can't figure out how to parse all the files into one directory I'm using the pclzip library (http://www.phpconcept.net/pclzip/man/en/index.php) And it has an option to only get files that match a certain preg expression(PCLZIP_OPT_BY_PREG) I don't know preg's that well, can anyone tell me how to write a regular expression that will select everything BUT files/folders that begin with ._ or __?

Extracting Bit Fields
I need to decode a message that is coming in from a serial port (from an AIS receiver that indicates ship positions) in a packed binary format. It is 424 bits long, encoded as a series of 6-bit chunks, each represented by an ASCII character. Within these 424 bits are fields of various numbers of bits, from 1 to 42. There's no padding, so field boundaries typically don't line up on the 6-bit character boundaries.
