Question

From a variable containing tags layout as <img>
I want to replace all the image tags and content by the same tag concatenated with <br />

for example:

<img src="mon image" style="width:80px; float: right;">

replaced by

<img src="mon image" style="width:80px; float: right;"> <br />

I succed to replace the img tag with a character but not like I want

Answer 1

Try with this regular expression:

$string = '<img src="mon image" style="width:80px; float: right;">';
$pattern = "/(\<img\b[^>]*>)/";
$replacement = '${1}<br/>';
echo preg_replace($pattern, $replacement, $string);

Also @LawrenceCherone has right your IMG should be like this:

<img src="mon image" style="width:80px; float: right;"/>

But the regular expression also works with that tag declaration.
