PHP url rewrite Preg_replace Jeroen, 040908 12:51
Hi!

I am attempting to convert a "clean URL" (string) into the "old fashioned links".

For example:
myscript.php/myfile.txt/5/2
into:
myscript.php?file=myfile.txt&id=5&year=2

Is it possible to do this with one regular expression? I always have troubles with regular expressions :(

To eleborate on my post above, the regular expression needs to do the following:

1. Replace first / character with ?action=
2. Replace second / character with &id=
3. Replace third / character with &year=
...But only after between <A></A> tags.
Darn those expressions are hard.

You can try this as example:


$str="HTML test here<a>myscript.php/myfile.txt/5/2</a> and here";

$s=preg_replace("/(.+)\/(.+)\/(\d+)\/(\d+)(\<\/a\>.*)/","\?action=\&id=\&year=\",$str);

print $s;

It's not so hard. Just read PHP manual carefully.

I got it working (with another solution as Absolut mentioned.)

Thanks
