I can extract image tags from HTML files

[Anon]

Someone earlier posted a question regarding extractin the image tags from an HTML file. I was working on a similar problem and managed to figure it out. Unlike many of the other responses to this question, this on e is very general and has been thouroughly tested.

The regexp is:
/(<[i|I][m|M][g|G]\s[^{>][s|S][r|R][c|C]\s?=\s?\"?)([>\s\"])([>]*>)/}

The php code I use it with is:

preg_match_all("/(<[i|I][m|M][g|G]\s[^{>][s|S][r|R][c|C]\s?=\s?\"?)([>\s\"])([>]*>)/",} $htmlcode, $matches);

echo "Image Tags matched:<br>\n";
foreach($matches[0] as $fullMatch) {
echo htmlentities($fullMatch)."<BR>\n";
}

echo "Image Paths extracted:<br>\n";
foreach ($matches[2] as $pathMatch) {
echo "$pathMatch<BR>\n";
}

hope this helps.

Seth:

I tried it. It is wonderful. I have some more questions.

There is a reason you extract image tags. The reason I want to do so is that, when I read an html file into my e-mail body and send it out, the html format e-mail will have the images as links. and if the recipients re-read the e-mail off line, the image link will be broken. So what i want to do is extract the image tag, path, so i can find the image path and the image position in the html page, then i would like to embed this iamge into the e-mail body at the right position.

Do you have the solution for that?

Anyway your code is very helpful. And I will try to see if I can solve my problem based on your suggestions codes.
