Ok I am sure someone has asked a similar question before but I couldn’t find anything.

I want to do the following.

Change

[CODE]
<a href=”http://www.bbc.co.uk/”>The BBC Website</a>
[/CODE]

to

[CODE]
The BBC Website
http://www.bbc.co.uk
[/CODE]

Can anyone help me?

@ellisglAug 02.2007 — You can do with preg_split.. but i'm having some issues with my regex coding..

This code is wrong but close:
[code=php]
<?php
$link = '<a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/">The BBC Website</a>';
$url = preg_split('/<a href="http://.*?/">/', $link);
$title = preg_split('//>.*?<//', $link);
print_r($url);
echo '<br />';
echo $title[0],'<br />',$url[1];
?>
[/code]

@ellisglAug 02.2007 — ok - this works:
[code=php]
<?php
$link = '<a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/">The BBC Website</a>';
$arr = split('"', $link);
$url = strip_tags($arr[1]);
$title = split('>', $arr[2]);
echo rtrim($title[1],'</a'),'<br/>',$url;
?>
[/code]

@NogDogAug 03.2007 — [code=php]
<?php
$text = '<a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/">The BBC Website</a>';
$regex = '#<as[^>]*href=["']([^"']+)["'][^>]*>([^<]+)</a>#i';
$output = preg_replace($regex, '\2<br />\1', $text);
echo $output;
[/code]

@ellisglAug 03.2007 — There we go! My RegEx knowledge is horrible. It took me a couple days to figure out an issue that dealt with RegEx.

http://www.regular-expressions.info/tutorial.html -- made me more confused.

http://www.regexbuddy.com/ was the best in helping me on that..

There is http://weitz.de/regex-coach/ also

Success!
