lowercase tags

[Anon]

Any help on this would be appreciated...I'm looking for a function or regular expression that will convert all tags (and their attributes) to lowercase. So, it would convert all characters between <> that aren't contained within "". Thanks.

I don't think you can do it with just one Regex. I guess you have to do it manually. You could do something like this (I haven't t
tested it):

$tag = "<A HREF=\"mylink.php3\" TARGET=\"_top\">";

$array = explode("\"", $tag);

/ in $array all the odd entries are strings, the rest must be lowercase
For example:
$array[0] = "<A HREF=";
$array[1] = "MyLink.php3";
$array[2] = " TARGET=";
$array[3] = "_top";
$array[4] = ">";
***********************/

for ($i = 0; $i < count($array); $i+=2) {
&nbsp; &nbsp;$array[$i] = strtolower($array[$i]);
}

/ now glue the array together again /

$tag = implode("\"", $array);

Now this string should be lowercased the way you want it to be. Though, using this kind of algorithm can be dangerous. For example if someone types a tag parameter value without the quotes (like <a href=MyLink.php3>), that value is lowercased as well. I hope this helps you along.

Hello Brother,

I found your message, when I also finding about a function which can convert any type of text case to lower, but I also not found the thing for which i am searching.

so I have implemented a function which convert any type case either uppercase, titlecase, or any capital character between a word for example (Vinay, VINAY, viNAy), via using my this script you will get only text return in lowercase which will be 'vinay' only.

I think you can modify this script according to your need via using file handling methods in php.

Just open new text file in your editor copy and paste under mentioned script and save your file as lib.php

----------Script start here for lib.php-----
<?php
global $var,$upper,$lower,$i;

$var="A Apple hAs been eAted by A MAn<BR>";

$i=0;

echo $var;

function lowercase($var)
{
$upper=array("A","B","C","D","E","F","G","H","I","J","K","L","M","N","O","P","Q","R","S","T","U","V","W","X","Y","Z");
$lower=array("a","b","c","d","e","f","g","h","i","j","k","l","m","n","o","p","q","r","s","t","u","v","w","x","y","z");

for($i=0;$i<27;$i++)
{
$var=strtr($var,$upper[$i],$lower[$i]);
}
return $var;
}

echo (lowercase($var));
?>
----------Script ends here for lib.php-----

Now open new text file in your editor copy and paste under mentioned script and save your file as test.php

---------Script starts here for test.php-----

<?php
include "lib.php";

$text="I Don't Want To Remove This type OF THE TEXT<BR>";

echo(lowercase($text));

?>
---------Script ends here for test.php-----

I think it will be helpfull for you. If you not found your solution in this script, then do mail to me i will try to solve to your problem.

Ok,Bye
