[SOLVED] Need some help with strings and matching

[pspcrazy]

Hi I'm trying to get wordpress to replace the flv urls in my posts that are between [flv][/flv] tags with the ###URL### in the code.

 

A flv url is something like this:

http://v4.crunchyroll.com/user7/7/p/5/q/7p5qrn4513q1po75q5o/video.flv

 

 

// FLV Player Code

define("FLV_WIDTH", 540);
define("FLV_HEIGHT", 438);
define("FLV_REGEXP", "/\[flv\]([_A-Za-z0-9-]+)\[\/flv\]/");
define("FLV_TARGET", "<embed flashvars=\"&file=###URL###&autostart=false&skin=/modieus.swf\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" allowscriptaccess=\"always\" quality=\"high\" name=\"mpl\" id=\"mpl\" src=\"http://www.animecrazy.net/player.swf\" type=\"application/x-shockwave-flash\" width=\"540\" height=\"438\">");


function flv_plugin_callback($match) {
$output = FLV_TARGET;
$output = str_replace("###URL###", $match[1], $output);

return ($output);
}

function flv_plugin($content) {
return preg_replace_callback(FLV_REGEXP, 'flv_plugin_callback', $content);
}

add_filter('the_content', 'flv_plugin');
add_filter('comment_text', 'flv_plugin');

 

Anyone have any ideas to make this work? It works just fine if I don't use the url and use this code for things like video ids. But once I try url's or thing that have slashes, periods, colons in them it won't work.

 

Thanks for any help or fixes to this.

define("FLV_REGEXP", "/\[flv\]([_A-Za-z0-9-]+)\[\/flv\]/");

won't work, your missing dots and slashes and % etc

try this

define("FLV_REGEXP", '%\[flv\](.*?)\[/flv\]%is');
