preg_match

[supermerc]

Hey once again,

 

I need a preg_match function that will get b726b788e55b9096da3d164580ddf24c

 

out of:

 

<input type="hidden" name="codeid" value="b726b788e55b9096da3d164580ddf24c">

 

Thanks for the help!

Here is one solution:

 

example:

$str = '<input type="hidden" name="codeid" value="b726b788e55b9096da3d164580ddf24c">';
preg_match('#<input[^>]*value=[\'"]([a-f0-9]+)[\'"]#i', $str, $match);
echo $match[1];

 

Granted, this makes assumptions that the string value of value only consists of a-f/0-9 one or more times (as this is the only sample you give).

If the value of value can be anything (and this is what you want), you can simply change ([a-f0-9]+) to ([^\'"]+).
