Question

I have massive html code, with loooads of images, problem is, every single image has a different path, example:

<img src="../media/2010/01/something.jpg" />

<img src="../media/logo.png" />

What I wanted to do with regular expressions is, to find every image path and replace it with:

<img src="../img/FILENAME.EXTENSION" />

I know that it’s definately possible with regular expressions … but it’s just not my cup of tea, could any1 help me please?

Cheers, Mart

Answer 1

This might not be the best solution but it might work:

(<img.*?src=")([^"]*?(\/[^/]*\.[^"]+))

and then you use capture group 1 and 3 to create the new string (depending on flavor):

$1../img$3
