note 94238 added to function.preg-split

Sometimes PREG_SPLIT_DELIM_CAPTURE does strange results. <?php $content = '<strong>Lorem ipsum dolor</strong> sit <img src="test.png" />amet <span class="test" style="color:red">consec<i>tet</i>uer</span>.'; $chars = preg_split('/<[^>]*[^\/]>/i', $content, -1, PREG_SPLIT_NO_EMPTY | PREG_SPLIT_DELIM_CAPTURE); print_r($chars); ?> Produces: Array ( [0] => Lorem ipsum dolor [1] => sit <img src="test.png" />amet [2] => consec [3] => tet [4] => uer ) So that the delimiter patterns are missing. If you wanna get these patters remember to use parentheses. <?php $chars = preg_split('/(<[^>]*[^\/]>)/i', $content, -1, PREG_SPLIT_NO_EMPTY | PREG_SPLIT_DELIM_CAPTURE); print_r($chars); //parentheses added ?> Produces: Array ( [0] => <strong> [1] => Lorem ipsum dolor [2] => </strong> [3] => sit <img src="test.png" />amet [4] => <span class="test" style="color:red"> [5] => consec [6] => <i> [7] => tet [8] => </i> [9] => uer [10] => </span> [11] => . ) ---- Server IP: 147.32.160.17 Probable Submitter: 89.102.219.238 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.preg-split.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/94238 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/94238/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/94238/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/94238/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/94238/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/94238/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/94238/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/94238 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/94238 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
