Question

I have problem, can help me?
I have text and I want to replace it from ” to “.

<span>new var[128]; format(var, sizeof(var), "something %s %f", "Stuneris", 1589.0587); SendClientMessage(playerid, 0xFFFFFFFF, var);</span>

And I want "something %s %f" and "Stuneris" replace to <span class="numb">"something %s %f"</span> and <span class="numb">"Stuneris"</span>

And other problem is to replace HEX codes from 0xFFFFFFFF to <span class="numb">0xFFFFFFFF</span>.

What I need to do?

Answer 1

Replacing the HEX codes is easy:

$text = preg_replace('/(0x[0-9a-f]+)/i','<span class="numb">$1</span>',$text);

Replacing the strings within quotes is a bit more tricky. The main issue is to inlcude "something %s %f", but exclude ", " (which separates the quoted strings, but will also look like a quoted string). If you can be sure there will never be a comma in any of the strings, you’d use:

$text = preg_replace('/("[^",]+")/i','<span class="numb">$1</span>',$text);

If you must allow for a comma, this will exclude all strings that start with a comma:

$text = preg_replace('/("(?!,)[^"]+")/i','<span class="numb">$1</span>',$text);
