Try this: function readTag($filenane, $tagtype, $degub = false) // I prefer boolean for debug :) { $filedata = file_get_contents($filename); $tagtype = preg_quote($tagtype); $tagRegExp = "/<battag=$tagtype\s*>((?:.|\s)*?)</battag\s*>/"; preg_replace_callback($tagRegExp, 'replaceFunc', $filedata); }
function replaceFunc(match) { // match[0] --- the whole tag from <x> to </x> // match[1] --- the contents of the tag // I am my self !!! in the example return WHATEVER_YOU_WANT_TO_REPLACE_THE_TAG; } I didnt make sure this script will work 100%; but it should.
