I need to grab the names between the html tags.
<div class="from"><span class="profile fn">firstnamed familyname</span></div>
so far I tried according to examples from other poeple with the same question:
preg_match(";from"><span class="profile fn>(.?)</span></div>;", $text, $match)
but it doesn't work.
What is the correct way?
Thanks a lot.
preg_match(";from"><span class="profile fn>(.?)</span></div>;", $text, $match)
... should trigger this:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '<'
Apart from that:
You seek for an unclosed attribute that's not in the original text:
class="profile fn
vs class="profile fn"
You seek for zero or one characters:
.?
Fixed regexp would be:
$text = '<div class="from"><span class="profile fn">firstnamed familyname</span></div>';
preg_match(';from"><span class="profile fn">(.*)</span></div>;', $text, $match);
var_dump($match);
Of course, this will probably break on large HTML documents (as soon as there's another </span></div>
bit later on). Regular expressions are impossible to get right when used for parsing HTML.
This:
preg_match(";from"><span class="profile fn>(.?)</span></div>;", $text, $match)
is syntactically incorrect, you have to escape the double quotes:
preg_match(";from\"><span class=\"profile fn>(.?)</span></div>;", $text, $match)
您需要转义特殊字符(例如引号):
preg_match(";from\"><span class\=\"profile fn>(.?)</span></div>;", $text, $match)
