php regex city state zip
this is from an array i have
[citystatezip] => New York, NY 50805-2578
i'm trying to have it in the format below
[city] => New York
[state]开发者_开发问答 => NY
[zip] => 50805-2578
i was using regex in php..but got nowhere.
thanks for the help.
Try this regex:
/([^,]+),\s*(\w{2})\s*(\d{5}(?:-\d{4})?)/
Translated into code:
$str = "New York, NY 50805-2578";
preg_match("/([^,]+),\s*(\w{2})\s*(\d{5}(?:-\d{4})?)/", $str, $matches);
list($arr['addr'], $arr['city'], $arr['state'], $arr['zip']) = $matches;
print_r($arr);
Gives:
Array
(
[zip] => 50805-2578
[state] => NY
[city] => New York
[addr] => New York, NY 50805-2578
)
With this regex:
There is some input validation (eg: requires input to be in the form of: XXXXXXX, YY NNNNN-NNNN)
Spaces are optional
The last 4 digits of the zip are optional
(.+?), (\w+) ([-\d]+)
Then get the info from the capturing groups.
Why not do.
/(?P<city>[^,]+),\s*(?P<state>\w{2})\s*(?P<zip>\d{5}(?:-\d{4})?)/
Saves you doing:
$arr['city'] = $matches[1];
$arr['state'] = $matches[2];
$arr['zip'] = $matches[3];
so when you:
print_r($matches);
you will get
Array
(
[city] => New York
[state] => NY
[zip] => 50805-2578
)
Main expression used from NullUserException
and all credit goes to him. I just shortened the process.
