&lt;HTML Tags to UPPER CASE&gt;

<HTML Tags to UPPER CASE>

Anon

Hi,

Does anyone know an easy way of doing this in php?

If I have a string which contains numerous HTML tags, how can I convert everything between the <TAG's> from upper case to lower case, while leaving the >Text between the <TAG's>Alone. ???

Cheers for the help!

For something like this I would use Nedit

replace feature...

for example

search for html>
replace with HTML>

etc,

You can also look at sed

$ man sed

The knowledge of regular expression would help...

Cheers,
Is there any way of doing it without regex by incorporating the strtolower (string)
function?

strtolower() deals only with the easy part: how to do the uppercasing. The much harder part is isolating the data to be uppercased, and this is certainly beyond what I'm able to do with regex's, though somebody well-versed in preg might suggest something.

What, Kirk doesn't know EVERYTHING about regexp ? ;-) Look what I've just found at www.php.net/manual/function.preg-replace.php :

preg_replace("/(<\/?)(\w+)([^{>]*>)/e","'\1'.strtoupper('\2').'\3'",$html_body);}

This is exactly what we want ! The "e" modifier does the magic. I will have learned something today.

But....

Lovely though that code is, it doesn't touch attributes 🙁

Any "reg ex"perts wanna try and tackle that? I was hoping to use this to help convert existing docs to xhtml 1.0 transitional standard / .......
