Actually I didn't pose my question correctly.
I also needed to grep out the "Link" for use in JS during the process.
I wrapped this in a class file and here is the entry that I ended up with.
Thanks for the assist though...
======================================================
function getPL($plric)
{
//variable set to add at the end of the RIC if it's a stock not a page
$temp = "B2";
//find out if it's a stock by query for the period in the RIC
if (eregi("\.", $plric))
{
//add B2 if it's a stock
$plric = $plric + $temp;
}
//the data comes out of the server pipe delimited
$pages = split("\|",`/mdsweb/cgi-bin/Snap_Pages -s 000.000.000.00 -p
34927 -r $plric`);
$a=0;
while ($pages[$a] != "")
{
$pages[$a] = htmlentities($pages[$a]);
//replace spaces with
$pages[$a] = str_replace(" ", " ", $pages[$a]);
//find the left angle brackets
$a1 = spliti("<", $pages[$a]);
$b=0;
while ($a1[$b] != "")
{
//if the resulting data has a right angle bracket....
if (eregi(">", $a1[$b]))
{
$a2 = spliti(">", $a1[$b]);
if (eregi("\.", $a2[0]))
{
echo "<a class='small'
href='http://server/php/QST/PageTest.php?plric=";
//this would be the raw RIC
echo $a2[0],$tag;
//put back the left angle bracket in the link
echo "'><";
echo $a2[0];
//put back the right angle bracket in the link
echo "></a>";
$c=1;
//echo the link itself
while ($a2[$c])
{
echo $a2[$c];
$c++;
}
}
else
{
echo "<a class='small'
href='http://server/php/QST/PageTest.php?plric=";
//this would be a Page request not a RIC
echo $a2[0];
echo "'>";
echo $a2[0];
echo "</a>";
$c=1;
while ($a2[$c])
{
echo $a2[$c];
$c++;
}
}
}
else
{
echo $a1[$b];
}
$b++;
}
echo "<br>";
$a++;
}
