How do i..

[pickachu]

How do I search a whole html for a tag which is <br><br>Generated Strings: 76&67&5&5&9&<br><br>Shift Factor: 15<br><br>?

 

Then store the 76&67&58&5&9& inside a variable? Please I need help badly..

What is "a whole html" ?

 

And we need more information about the format of the "generated strings".... do they have a specific length, consist only of specific characters, start and end in a specific manner or are they within a specific tag?

Oh sorry, the HTML tag did not show up on my original post..

 

Inside a whole html tag, contains all sorts of html tags but the string that i want to store inside a variable is inside

 

<br><br>Generated String: 76&67&5&5&9&<br><br>Shift Factor: 15<br><br>
[code]

And note, That [code]<br><br>

is use only on that line.. [/code][/code]

Oh sorry,

 

The output should be

 

variable a = 76&67&5&5&9&;

variable b= 15

~<br><br>Generated String: ([^<]+)<br><br>Shift Factor: (\d*)<br><br>~

 

Matches what you want in the first 2 subgroups

 

<?php
$hay = '<br><br>Generated String: 76&67&5&5&9&<br><br>Shift Factor: 15<br><br>
[.c.ode]

And note, That [.co.de]<br><br>';
preg_match_all('~<br><br>Generated String: ([^<]+)<br><br>Shift Factor: (\d*)<br><br>~', $hay, $out);
$a = $out[1][0];
$b = $out[2][0];
?>
