Regular expression for replacing pseudo

[Anon]

Hi,

I am looking for a regex which does the following:
look for
<glossary id="wordname">linklabel</glossary>
and replace it by
<a href="asdf.php?id=wordname">linklabel</a>

Anyone around who already uses such a regex? 🙂

Thanks a lot,
Tom

If the string will remain the same this should work:

$string="<glossary id=\"wordname\">linklabel</glossary>";
preg_match("/<glossary id=\"([\w]*)\">/",$string,$links);
echo "<a href=\"asdf.php?id=$links[1]\">$links[1]</a>\n";
