martin, jack ..
cheers for the replies
Jack.. I am trying to strip out all links in the page that is between
the <a href and </a>
I was using
$html =GETSITE($url);
$the_array=spliti("<A (.*)</A>", $html,-1); //spliti to avoid any case
sensitivity.
foreach($the_array AS $k) echo $k."<HR>";
I had given preg_split a go but just got flummoxed with the need to
slash everything ..
Martin .. I'd tried that .. but i get an array count of 0 from
$the_array ..(from $the_array=split("<A ([^>]*)</A>", $html,-1);
echo count($the_array);
