Code Parse Help

[burhankhan]

Hi:

 

I have written a class to parse bbcode.

 

I am having little problem with regular expression.

 

preg_replace('/\[quote\](.+?)\[\/quote\]/is', '<pre>$1</pre>', $mytext)

 

This is simple code to convert all QUOTES tags. It is working fine.

But when i have text like this:

 

[ quote ]here is some text[ quote ]here is more text[ / quote ][ / quote ]

 

Then it is creating problem.

It will print this:

 

[ quote ]here is some text

[ / quote ]

 

Is there any solution to parse 2 or more level QUOTES??

 

Thanks

Burhan Khan

You'll want to use preg_match within a while loop and then with each match found you'll then use preg_replace. I'll back with some code in abit.

maybe call preg_replace more then one time

<?php
$mytext = '[quote]here is some text[quote]here is some text[/quote][/quote]';
while (preg_match('/\[quote\](.+?)\[\/quote\]/is', $mytext)) $mytext = preg_replace('/\[quote\](.+?)\[\/quote\]/is', '<pre>$1</pre>', $mytext);
echo $mytext;
?>
