PHP Monkeh Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 Title as in the <title> or the name of the file itself (excluding extensions)?

PHP Monkeh Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 You'd have to set up reading the file and then doing matches with regex. Something like this: <?php $text = "READ YOUR HTML IN TO THIS STRING"; preg_match("/\<title\>(.*)\<\/title\>/", $text, $matches); echo $matches[1]; ?> Aslong as all your HTML is in $text it'll output whatever's in between <title> and </title> Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/87638-is-there-a-function-for-this/#findComment-448274 Share on other sites More sharing options...
resago Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 try <a href="http://test.com?ex=ex&title=<?php echo preg_replace('/.*<title>(.*)<\/title>.*/si',"$1",file_get_contents("http://test.com?ex=ex")); ?> Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/87638-is-there-a-function-for-this/#findComment-448276 Share on other sites More sharing options...
