Don't use gets(). Ever. You haven't gotten very far since your first message. You need to load the whole thing into memory as-is. fgets() isn't really what I meant. Something more like fopen() the file for reading as binary, fseek() to the end, ftell(), fseek() to the beginning, read in the number of bytes specified by ftell() (malloc() beforehand - don't forget to free), fclose() the file and return the content. (And you really should be using C++ for this - Safe C++ has BString, which has LoadFromFile(), which does the above. One line of code is really all that is needed). Then start scanning along until you find an open tag indicator and store the data up to that point as content. Scan for the name, attributes, and values up to the close tag point. Store all these as a tag. Switch back to content mode. Alternate until you have processed the entire file. At that point you will have a set of structures that you can iterate through with a for-loop. Looking for img tags and background attributes at this point is a piece of cake. Then, output results, clean up everything (freeing struct's, etc.), and return to ask for another file. (Ignore Sumit Chawla's question. He probably didn't read/remember the original request.) -- Thomas Hruska CubicleSoft President Ph: 517-803-4197 *NEW* VerifyMyPC 2.4 Change tracking and management tool.
