How to extract link when given partial link value
I am using PHP 4, that is what the host has at the moment. How can I extract link from a string when given part of the link to find.
Example
$find_string = 'http://www.mysite.com/apple';
$string = 'Something and something else
<a href="http://www.mysite.com/apple_banana">testlink</a>
something else and so forth
<a href="http://www.mysite.com/orange">orange</a>
In this case I would like to extract only the links 开发者_Go百科that has http://www.mysite.com/apple
in it so it would retrieve http://www.mysite.com/apple_bananan
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
$matches = array();
$find_string = 'http://www.mysite.com/apple';
preg_match_all('!<\s*a\s*href="('.$find_string.'[^"]+)">!', 'Something and something else < a href="http://www.mysite.com/apple_banana">testlink< /a> something else and so forth < a href="http://www.mysite.com/orange">orange< /a> ', $matches);
print_r($matches);
/* output:
Array
(
[0] => Array
(
[0] => < a href="http://www.mysite.com/apple_banana">
)
[1] => Array
(
[0] => http://www.mysite.com/apple_banana
)
)
