I'm not very good programer, I use one php script for cms for flash.
When I make changes in text in this CMS, for example I put letters bold,
this script puts <strong></strong> on beginning and the end, but I need
<b></b> so I use str_replace to replace strong with b, and this is ok.

But when I change a color, this script puts for example <font color=#CCCCCC>
in front of letters but I need <font color="#CCCCCC"> because Flash won't
read it without quotes. And I can't say str_replace #CCCCCC with "#CCCCCC"
because I don't know wich color the person will choose.

Please if you have some idea help me!

flash doesn't recognize <strong> ?!

doesn't matter. use pre_replace. this would be similar to the pattern you'd
use (though i'm not testing it):

/<[^\s]\s+([^=\s]=([^"'\s))*?>/g

the second, inner parenthetical is the value not quoted. you'd replace $2
with '"' . $2 . '"'. this would put quotes around ever attribute in your
html that did not have quotes...and not just for the font tags...everything.

hth,

Actually you need a new CMS. <font> is so last century.

This is probably a very convoluted solution but it's late and I've not had
to do this previously in php.
You will need to loop to the end of the string, which I haven't done. I
haven't tested it either, but it should work with some modification.

$f='This is a search for <font-color=#CCCCCC> and that';

$pos=array(0, 1);

$pos[0]=stripos($f, 'font-color=#', $pos[0]);
$pos[1]=stripos($f, '=', $pos[0]);
$f=substr_replace($f, '="',$pos[1], 1);
$pos[0]=stripos($f, '>', $pos[1]);
$f=substr_replace($f, '">', $pos[0], 1);

echo $f;

| /<[^\s]\s+([^=\s]=([^"'\s))*?>/g

ok, i just eyeballed the above. it won't work quite yet

/<[^\s]\s+([^=\s]=([^"'\s)*\s*?])*>/g

that should work from what i can tell right now by just looking.

Steves aproach is far superior. And the line above should be as below
anyway to account for possible spaces.

$pos[0]=stripos($f, 'font-color', $pos[0]);

sorry...because you have to escape the quote.

$replace = "/<[^\s]\s+([^=\s]=([^\"'\s))*?>/g";

that should help.

I don't have much experience with regular expressions, but this may do it

I would test it carefully first;

And I wouldn't trust me not to write "<font-color" instead of <font color
If you try to use the expresions without changing that nothing will happen.

haven't we all done that? man, i really get mad at myself when i forget the
javascript equivalent styles...like backgroundColor v. css'
background-color. i just have to remember javascript would try to subtract
color from background without this nuance.

I don't get mad at myself anymore Steve. ;)
I've had cronic fatigue for ten years now and it is so damned hard to
concentrate that mistakes are just a normal part of my day. :]
I write some code, scan for errors, fix the inevitable, write some more,
scan, etc etc.
Most of the time it's like trying to work in the front row of an ACDC
concert.
I've been surprised actualy that people haven't complained about the number
of mistakes I make on here. And it's been very highly appreciated :)
Cheers,
Vince

Now it's working!
Thank you!
