Parsing pricerunner.com results via regular expression.

sorry, how do i use preg match and replace could you tell me any sites where i can learn how to use them to fulfill my request previously
Thanks

Here's a simple example on how to use those functions:

$pattern = "/[^a-zA-Z0-9]/";
$replacement = " _";
$replaced_name= preg_replace($p attern,$replace ment,$original_ name);

This example shows you the pattern you are searching for, in this case, anything that is not a letter or number and replacing it with an underscore. It takes an original name variable (i.e. Tac k#y) and after it goes through preg_replace returns something like "Tac_k_y"

Hope that helps

Heya, Olie.

A blank page means that your script is probably generating errors.

Sorry for very late reply
but with echo $matches the script retuns 'array' and with echo $html it returns the whole page.
How can i fix this?

[PHP]<?php
$html = file_get_conten ts('http://pricerunner.co. uk/search?q=ipod') ;
preg_match_all( '/(?<=<span class="listpric e">£)\d+\.\d {2}/', $html, $matches);

echo $html;
?>[/PHP]
Thanks
