Hello all,
I need some help on the following:
I need to extract a paragraph from a text file that is delimited with a --start-paragraph-- and --end-paragraph-- However, after --start-paragraph-- there's a blank line that I need to remove.
The delimiter --start-paragraph-- might be one the first line or it might be on any middle line of the line. That is, --start-paragraph line starts at some point on the file.
Here's na example:
--start-paragraph--
This is a paragraph that I need to extract with a php function and return just
the string of it.
--end-paragraph--
After I run the function extract_paragraph($content) I should get the string:
function extract_paragraph($content) { $start = '--start-paragraph--'; $end = '--end-paragraph--'; preg_match("/$start(.*)$end/s",$content,$matches); return trim($matches[1]); }
