Hi!
I have a problem with parsing html table.
I need a script witch will pars html table from one site to another.
Can somebody help me with that??
can u secefy that, maybe give an example of the html-table (input and output) and the already existing code?
basicly u just use file_get_contents and regex or strpos/substr.
http://php.net/file_get_contents
http://php.net/regex
http://php.net/strpos
http://php.net/substr
Example of a table
<table width="200" border="0"> <tr> <td>1</td> <td>2</td> <td>3</td> </tr> <tr> <td>a</td> <td>s</td> <td>q</td> </tr> <tr> <td>b</td> <td>d</td> <td>w</td> </tr> <tr> <td>c</td> <td>f</td> <td>e</td> </tr> <tr> <td>d</td> <td>v</td> <td>r</td> </tr> </table>I dont have a php Code example .
I need a dynamic html table parse. So if data in table would be changed on original table, the table data of parsed table will be changed too. Sorry for my english =)
mby someone have a ready parsing table script??
wi hardly have any ready made scripts, as this side is made to help people with teyr scripts.
if u try to write ur own we are able to help u, but if u are just searching for something thats alrady done http://www.google.de is the right page for u.
a script to collect a table like this into an array should be quite easy:
something like (not ment to be working):
[php]
$table=’
$array=array();
$i=0;
while(($tr_start=strpos($table,’<tr’))!==false)
{
$tr_start=strpos($table,’>’,$trstart+3);
$tr_end=strpos($table,’’,$tr_start);
$tr=substr($table,$trstart,$tr_end-$tr_start)
$array[$i]=array();
while(($td_start=strpos($tr,’<td’))!==false)
{
$td_start=strpos($tr,’>’,$tdstart+3);
$td_end=strpos($tr,’’,$td_start);
$td=substr($tr,$tdstart,$td_end-$td_start)
$array[$i][]=$td;
$tr=substr($tr,$td_end+5)
}
$table=substr($table,$tr_end+5)
$i++
}
[/php]
written in about one minute. of couse this cript will malefunction if any 's or 's are missing.
