copya part of a string

[purencool]

hi php freaks,

 

have link in a menu that looks like the following. I have been able search the string using

strpos($lines[$i],'title='). What I want to know is how do I get the  school summary into

a variable.

 

<li><a href="../index.php" title="school  summary">Summary</a></li>

 

any help would be great

You'd probably need to use regular expressions, to make it easier.

 

Try something like this:

$string = '<li><a href="../index.php" title="school  summary">Summary</a></li>';

preg_match('/title="(.*?)"/', $string, $matches);
$title = $matches[1];

echo $title;
