note 71808 added to function.explode

A 'between' function that we've all been waiting for. I am not savvy with regex so I resorted to explode(); <?php function between($beg, $end, $str) { $a = explode($beg, $str, 2); $b = explode($end, $a[1]); return $beg . $b[0] . $end; } echo between('<a>', '</a>', 'fsdfsdfsd<a>fsdfsd<a><a></a>sdfsdfsdf') //<a>fsdfsd<a><a></a> ?> ---- Server IP: 64.71.164.2 Probable Submitter: 69.116.25.234 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.explode.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/71808 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/71808/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/71808/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/71808/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/71808/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/71808/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/71808/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/71808 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/71808 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
