Hi,
I got a new problem which has caused me to go mad but no solution. preg_match_all() - is the problem. I have something like this: CODE [ol] [li]Test1[/li] [li]Test2[/li] [li]Test3[/li] [li]Test4[/li] [li]Test5[/li] [/ol] Some text.Some text.Some text. [ol] [li]Test1[/li] [ol] [li]Test1[/li] [li]Test2[/li] [li]Test3[/li] [li]Test4[/li] [li]Test5[/li] [/ol] [li]Test2[/li] [li]Test3[/li] [li]Test4[/li] [li]Test5[/li] [/ol] My RegExp is the following: CODE preg_match_all("/(\[ol\])(.*)(\[\/ol\])/iUx", $text, $matches, PREG_SET_ORDER); Now this function gets 2 matches from the given text : Match 1: CODE [ol] [li]Test1[/li] [li]Test2[/li] [li]Test3[/li] [li]Test4[/li] [li]Test5[/li] [/ol] Match 2: CODE [ol] [li]Test1[/li] [ol] [li]Test1[/li] [li]Test2[/li] [li]Test3[/li] [li]Test4[/li] [li]Test5[/li] [/ol] It takes the [/ol] of the nested element first. I wanted that the preg_match_all() function matches the second match including the nested OR it should give me three matches. If i use Greedy RegExp then it takes the whole thing as One Match including the text between the two seperated [OL]'s. Is my REGEXP wrong or something.I tried lookaheads also but nothing. Please help me with this. I need it . This thing is going in my mind and does not let me live with peace. Thanks and have a good day. |
