preg_match_all class

Didn't work. I got the innerHtml instead of the href:

preg_match_all('#<a[^>]*class="g-asm"[^>]*>(.+?)</a>#is', $contents_of_page, $classhref, PREG_SET_ORDER);
foreach ($classhref as $gasmhref)
{
    echo "Grab: ". $gasmhref[1] ."<br/>";
}

PHP:

 

LOL, that didn't search the href... I thought you want to learn it yourself so I explained the previous regex. And well, we need to know which come first, the class attribute or href attribute before I can help you...

 

Here:

<a class="g-asm" href="http://something.com/ws/somethingISAPI.dll?ViewItem&amp;ssPageName=STRK:MESOX:IT&amp;item=260447933484" id="ttl_260447933484">something</a>

Code (markup):

I would like to know both the full url and then the item # only.

 

Here

preg_match_all('#<a[^>]*class="g-asm"[^>]*href="(.+?)"[^>]*>(.+?)</a>#is', $contents_of_page, $classgasm, PREG_SET_ORDER);

PHP:

 

WHen I do print it works fine. But the following:

preg_match_all('#<a[^>]*class="g-asm"[^>]*href="(.+?)"[^>]*>(.+?)</a>#is', $contents_of_page, $href, PREG_SET_ORDER);
//print_r($href);
foreach ($href as $classhref)
{
    echo "Grab: ". $href[0] ."<br/>";
}

PHP:

Gives:

 

LOL.. That because you tried to echo the array...

in above code, it should be this...

foreach ($href as $classhref)
{
    echo "Grab: ". $classhref[0] ."<br/>";
    echo "URL: ". $classhref[1] ."<br/>";
    echo "Text: ". $classhref[2] ."<br/>";
}

PHP:

But well, you must consistent with your code, in previous code, you pass $classxxx to the preg, but now you reverse it...

 

See what happens when I work till late at night?

 

how do you put each tag in an array?

I'm looking at a source and everything in the original page is disorganized.

I was thinking maybe I can grab the tags using regex and put \n at the end to sort it out.

But I'm not sure how the regex works.
