    hello,

    has anybody done this before? I want to convert all the html tags into bbcode like:

    
<UL></UL>
    PHP:
    to

    [ list ][ /list ]

    (just take the space off before and after list. i could not write them together)

    is there any ready script to do this?
    thanks

<?
$your_text = "This is some <b>cool</b> <u>HTML-Tags</u>.. Make us BB-Tags";

$htmltags = array(
                        '/\<b\>(.*?)\<\/b\>/is',                       
                        '/\<i\>(.*?)\<\/i\>/is',                           
                        '/\<u\>(.*?)\<\/u\>/is',
                        '/\<ul\>(.*?)\<\/ul\>/is'
                        );

$bbtags = array(
                        '[b]$1[/b]',
                        '[i]$1[/i]',
                        '[u]$1[/u]',
                        '[list]$1[/list]'
                        );
$your_text = preg_replace ($htmltags, $bbtags, $your_text);
echo $your_text;
?>
