something fun

[kellz]

well, kinda.. fun^^

 

ok so! i have my little script here:

<?php $k='h'; $l=/*[Kelsey]*/'o';$e='f';$s='p';$y

='z'; $w=$k.$e.$l/*[Kelsey]*/.$s.$e.$y;$d ='';for

($i=0; $i<strlen(/*[Kelsey]*/$w);$i++){$d.=chr(ord

($w[$i])^3);$i++;/*[Kelsey]*/$i=$i-1;}print($d);?>

 

just prints out my name "kelsey" but if i use regex how could i search the code for semi colons and "(" characters and then insert "/*[Kelsey]*/" between them? o and how could i do the same thing but remove "/*[Kelsey]*/" instead? i can do it without regex but i guess it would be alot smaller code if i just used regex!

 

thx!

ok nvm i did it^^ I started to learn regex for the past hour or so, it's kinda not so hard.. here is my solution:

 

to remove any comments between code lines:

echo preg_replace("/(\\/)(\\*).*?[a-z].*?(\\*)(\\/)/",  "", $code);

Why are you using ( )? .*?[a-z].*? can be reduced to .*.

 

P.S. What's the significance of ^^ in your posts?
