Put in seperate $var content whats in between *&&*

[Peuplarchie]

Good day to you all,

                      I'm looking for a way to retrieve the text in between *& &* and put it's content into a $var. for each occurrence with in a string.

 

$occu[0] = "dsfsdf";

$occu[1] = "10";

$occu[2] = "10sct";

 

Is there a way to do this ?

 

 

I know how to do it but not recusively.

 

 

function get_string_between($string, $start, $end){
$string = " ".$string;
$ini = strpos($string,$start);
if ($ini == 0) return "";
$ini += strlen($start);
$len = strpos($string,$end,$ini) - $ini;
return substr($string,$ini,$len);
}

$parsed = get_string_between($tache, "*&", "&*");
$tache = str_replace("*&","<div class=\"progress-containers\"><div style=\"width:",$tache);
$tache = str_replace("&*","%\">$parsed</div></div>",$tache);

 

 

Can somebody can give me a tips ?

Impressive, here is what I come back with from before your post.

how to implement it with a foreach loop.

 

Let says instead I use index 0 to give me the whole piece and I replace the whole string with anther with the "number" index 1 with the formated html. See code

 

preg_match_all('/\*&([a-z0-9]+)&\*/i',$tache,$out, PREG_SET_ORDER);
echo $out[0][0] . ", " . $out[1][0] . ", " . $out[2][0] . ", " . $out[3][0] . ", " . $out[4][0] . "\n";
$i = 0;
foreach ($out[$i][0] as &$value) {
$value = str_replace("*&","<div class=\"progress-containers\"><div style=\"width:",$value);
$value = str_replace("&*","%\">$value[$i][1]</div></div>",$value);
    $i++;
}
