Re: Readfile

How can I set a limit on readfile() function to only read contents between <body> and </body> tags rather than entire file? I dont think you can but here's two solutions (not using readfile()):

Solution 1. //beware that any other text on same line as body tags will be lost $fh = fopen($filename, 'r'); $body_contents = ''; $read = false; while(!feof($fh)) { $line = fgets($fh); if (preg_match('/<\/body>/', $line)) $read = false; if ($read)

      $body_contents .= $line;

if (preg_match('/<body(\s.*?)?>/', $line)) $read = true; } echo $body_contents; Solution 2 // should extract all text between body tags even if on same line // I'm far from a regex guru so there may well be a better pattern than this :) $file_string = file_get_contents($filename); $file_string = preg_replace("/.+?<body(\s.*?)?>(.+?)<\/body>.+/is", '$2', $file_string); echo $file_string; -- |> Brad Kowalczyk |> Web Developer |> brad@ibiscode.com |> www.ibiscode.com
