regular expressions and php

Hello,

I want to make a buffer ($buf) that holds my php file. I want to remove the <?php ... ?> section and just hold the html information. I THOUGHT I made a regular expression to do this. I have
$buf = ereg_replace('/[<\?]\w[\?>]/','',$buf);

I also used,

$buf = ereg_replace('/<\?\w\?>/','',$buf);

and it didn't work.

I had notice that even before this section,

$buf = fgets($fd)
$buf = trim($buf);

that $buf only holds a some of the materials, it doesn't hold

<html> blah blah <title>Untitled Document</title>
blah blah
<?php 'partial php_blah'

it holds the rest of php_blah. However,

$buf = strip_tags($buf);
$buf = ereg_replace('/&\w;/', '', $buf);

does holds from "Untitled Document" to the end of the file, even the ending '?>'.

Does anyone knows why and how do I get $buf to hold everything and the proper way to write "erase the information inbetween <? and ?>"?

Thank you,

PDunn

printing the information in the buffer.

Maybe I'm wrong, maybe what is happening is that the beginning part is not beginning printed out because it is in HTML and HTML tags like

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
<title>Untitled Document</title>
</head>
<?php

just doesn't get printed.  Well ... how do I print them.  Would this help in being able to eliminate the code inbetween the <?php ?>

Thank you for any help,

P

$regexp = '/^(^<\?(php)?(.*|\s*)/?>)$/';

I think that says, "Starting from the beginning, match what is not [b]<?[/b], followed by an optional [b]php[/b], followed by an character or whitespace, followed by [b]?>[/b], until the end of the string."

If there are embedded tags, I would split on the tag and loop through the result, flagging when you're in a tag.
