Miles ThompsonHi, I want to replace the content of html links : <a href="foo" name="bla">REPLACETHIS</a>. $html=preg_replace("/(<a.*name=.*>)(.*)<\/a>/isU",$link,$html,1); This generally works but removes <a>,</a> tags too. How to make it work without removing anything else than (.*) in the middle of <a>.*</a>$html = preg_replace("/(<a.*name=.*>)(.*)<\/a>/isU", '\1' . $link . '</a>', $html, 1); -- Richard Heyes http://www.phpguru.org
