php & preg_match()

Ateo · 01-19-2009, 10:58 AM

Hi,

I've run into a wall in which I'm not able to figure out the expression needed to make a match.

The string is:

Code:

# BEGIN RewriteEngine
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
...Rewrite Rules...
# END RewriteEngine

I need to capture the text inside the 2 apache comments but for the life of me, I'm not able.

Here's what I currently have:

Code:

preg_match('/\# BEGIN RewriteEngine(.*?)\#END RewriteEngine/',$content,$match)

Where content is the string above.

I've tried a number of different variations but I think the # (pound sign) is what's giving me grief.

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

PHP Code:



preg_match('/# BEGIN RewriteEngine(.*?)#END RewriteEngine/msU',$content,$match)

is the code that works..

Thanks anyways..
