Take something our of string

[kirill578]

Is there some PHP function that can take a part of string between quotes or somthing like this and make an array out of it?

 

Example:

 

$string = "balal sd<asx zxcz>xc asd asd <e asd xzcz>xcv";

$array = Some_function('<','>',$string);

.

.

Is there some tutorial for these signs "|<[^>]+>(.*)</[^>]+>|U"??

kirill578, read through the PHP manual section on regex patterns[1] a few times (you likely won't absorb everything in one sitting!). And keep going back to it for reference.

Not sure about that.. but this might

 

str_replace($searchForThis, $replaceWithThis, $fromThis, $passSomethingHereToGiveItAmountOfReplacements);

 

What you can do with this, is like take tags like the code tags used on this website, and replace them with things like < div > and < table >.... Not sure what you really want to achieve though, could you make it a bit clearer?

 

The function thorpe posted should really do what you want otherwise.
