Re: Re: Parsing HTML

The tools for you to execute the regular expression are there for you in the manual. The actual regular expression that you're looking for is not a php issue. And I can't say that I'm totally convinced that you're still not trying to circumvent google's TOS. Henry wrote:

What; nobody has anything to say about parsing HTML and doing search and replaces!! Is there another news group that might be better suited? I do want to do it PHP if I hadn't made that clear.

Hi All, I would like to be able to do a serach and replace in a HTML document. For

a

list of words; for example: hello become buongiorno yes becomes si size become grossezza The problem is that if I change the word "size" without considering html tags and html comments in the case of inline javascripts I'll end up with "broken" html. Is there a way to only do the search and replace outside the tags and comments. It is further complicated by the fact that I would still like to do the replacements within strings for example within meta tags! Any ideas. Henry
