php's preg_match_all() and css classes...

[kevinC]

Hello,

I'm trying to parse out the properties of a class definition from a css
file and am running into issues trying to write the reg. expression:

h1 {
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 16px;
font-weight: bold;
color: #003399;
}
....

I need the results in:
array[i][0] = "h1"
array[i][1] = "
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 16px;
font-weight: bold;
color: #003399;"

Any idea? I tried looking online for an example and can't find anything
that works with php's preg_match_all( ) function...

Thank you in advance!

-Kevin

preg_match_all( '/\s*(.*)\s*\{\s* (.*)\s*\}/sU', $str, $array,
PREG_SET_ORDER) ;


P.S. Please cross-post rather than multi-post.

This is how I solved it:

<?
# read stylesheets from a file
$filen=join("", file($styleshee tfile));

# remove everything between /* and */
$filen = preg_replace("!/\*.*?\*/!ms", "", $filen);

# remove whitespaces after semicolons
$filen = preg_replace("/;\s+/m", "; ", $filen);

# remove whitespaces after {
$filen = preg_replace("/{\s+/m", "{ ", $filen);

# remove whitespace before {
$filen = preg_replace("/\s+{/m", " {", $filen);

# replace several newlines with one
$filen = preg_replace("/\n{2,}/m", "\n", $filen);

# Leading whitespace
$filen = preg_replace("/^\s*/m", "", $filen);

# Multiple whitespaces to one
$filen = preg_replace("/ +/m", " ", $filen);

# Split every row and put in array as:
# filestylearray[selector][attribute]="value";

foreach(split(" \n", $filen) as $line){
preg_match("/^(.*){\s*(.*)\s *;\s*}\s*$/", $line, $m);
foreach(split(" ;",$m[2]) as $attribline){
$a=split(":", trim($attriblin e));
$stylearray[strtolower(trim ($m[1]))][trim($a[0])]=trim("$a[1]");
}
}

?>

It doesn't sort it like you want it to, but it can be tweaked.

Your example would end up in:

Array
(
[h1] => Array
(
[font-family] => Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif
[font-size] => 16px
[font-weight] => bold
[color] => #003399
)

)
