select digit

[sandy1028]

Hi,

 

 

Can anyone please tell me how to select only last value i.e 72 from this string

<b>1</b> - <b>10</b> of about <b>72</b>

[ILMV]

$arr=split('<br>',$list);
$last_item=str_replace('</br>', $arr[2]);

echo($last_item);

 

Not perfect, but that should do it.

Hi ,

Please try below code which will give you the result as 72.

 

<?php

$str = '<b>1</b> - <b>10</b> of about <b>72</b>';

$str1 = strlen($str);

print substr($str,$str1-6,$str1-4);

?>

Sorry madhuri, but what happens when the number at the end is not 2 characters long?

 

137 for example would return 37

9 for example would return >9

$last_item=str_replace('</br>', $arr[2]);

echo($last_item);

str_replace() takes 3 arguments not 2, thus:

 

$last_item = str_replace('</br>', '', $arr[2]);

try

preg_match('~<b>\d+</b> - <b>\d+</b> of about <b>(\d+)</b>~', $test, $out);
print_r($out);

not tested

Not tested...

 

$string = '<b>1</b> - <b>10</b> of about <b>72</b>' ;
$stringArray = explode('<b>',$string) ;
$lastInt = intval(end($stringArray), 10) ;
