PCRE 関数
I response to the post of "harrismw at ids dot org dot au" below: it *is* just as simple as escaping characters! Characters the question mark ('?'), the dollar sign ('$') and all types of "braces" ('(', ')', '{', '}', '[', ']') have special meaning in regular expressions. As noted in the manual above, if you don't need the power and flexibility that regular expressions provide (i.e. you are looking to split on a specific literal string) then you are better off using functions like explode().
preg_split
(PHP 4, PHP 5)
preg_split — 正規表現で文字列を分割する
説明
array preg_split
( string $pattern
, string $subject
[, int $limit
[, int $flags
]] )
指定した文字列を、正規表現で分割します。
パラメータ
- pattern
-
検索するパターンを表す文字列。
- subject
-
入力文字列。
- limit
-
これを指定した場合、最大 limit 個の部分文字列が返されます。そして、 limit が -1 の場合は「制限が無い」ことを意味します。 これは、flags を指定する場合に有用です。
- flags
-
flags は、次のフラグを組み合わせたものとする （ビット和演算子｜で組み合わせる）ことが可能です。
- PREG_SPLIT_NO_EMPTY
- このフラグを設定すると、空文字列でないものだけが preg_split() により返されます。
- PREG_SPLIT_DELIM_CAPTURE
- このフラグを設定すると、文字列分割用のパターン中の カッコによるサブパターンでキャプチャされた値も同時に返されます。
- PREG_SPLIT_OFFSET_CAPTURE
-
このフラグを設定した場合、各マッチに対応する文字列のオフセットも返されます。 これにより、返り値は配列となり、配列の要素 0 はマッチした文字列、 要素 1 は subject におけるマッチした文字列のオフセット値となることに 注意してください。
返り値
pattern にマッチした境界で分割した subject の部分文字列の配列を返します。
変更履歴
| バージョン | 説明 |
|---|---|
| 4.3.0 | PREG_SPLIT_OFFSET_CAPTURE が追加されました。 |
| 4.0.5 | PREG_SPLIT_DELIM_CAPTURE が追加されました。 |
| 4.0.0 | パラメータ flags が追加されました。 |
例
例1 preg_split() の例 : 検索文字列のある部分を取得
<?php
// カンマまたは " ", \r, \t, \n , \f などの空白文字で句を分割する。
$keywords = preg_split("/[\s,]+/", "hypertext language, programming");
?>
例2 文字列を文字要素に分割
<?php
$str = 'string';
$chars = preg_split('//', $str, -1, PREG_SPLIT_NO_EMPTY);
print_r($chars);
?>
例3 文字列をマッチするものとそのオフセットに分割
<?php
$str = 'hypertext language programming';
$chars = preg_split('/ /', $str, -1, PREG_SPLIT_OFFSET_CAPTURE);
print_r($chars);
?>
上の例の出力は以下となります。
Array ( [0] => Array ( [0] => hypertext [1] => 0 ) [1] => Array ( [0] => language [1] => 10 ) [2] => Array ( [0] => programming [1] => 19 ) )
注意
ヒント
正規表現の威力を必要としないのなら、より高速な (機能はシンプルですが) 代替関数として explode() あるいは str_split() のような選択肢があります。

So yeah, my nice little function I posted below. Guess what, it doesn't work for all cases.
If you know your way around regular expressions and the like then this might not come as a surprise, but it did surprise me. Basically, certain characters aren't welcome. If you try and include a bit of PHP in your patterns, then it might screw up your entire thing.
E.g.
< ? php if(!$suppressitemPHP) {
(Without the spaces between the < ? and php), isn't welcome, which bit? In this case having a single '{' is the problem. And I also suspect that the '(' and ')' and maybe '<', '?' and '$' are problems as well, but I'm not so sure.
I'm doing my research, and when (if) I come up with an answer, I'll post a revised function which will let me do what I want. (It may be as simple as escaping those chars in the pattern, I'm not sure.)
So yeah, use the function below, it works well, just be careful is all, it doesn't work all the time.

<?
$s = '<p>bleh blah</p><p style="one">one two three</p>';
$htmlbits = preg_split('/(<p( style="[-:a-z0-9 ]+")?>|<\/p>)/i', $s, -1, PREG_SPLIT_DELIM_CAPTURE);
print_r($htmlbits);
?>
Array
(
[0] =>
[1] => <p>
[2] => bleh blah
[3] => </p>
[4] =>
[5] => <p style="one">
[6] => style="one"
[7] => one two three
[8] => </p>
[9] =>
)
two interesting bits:
1. When using PREG_SPLIT_DELIM_CAPTURE, if you use more than one pair of parentheses, the result array can have members representing all pairs. See array indexes 5 and 6 to see two adjacent delimiter results in which the second is a subset match of the first.
2. If a parenthesised sub-expression is made optional by a following question mark (ex: '/abc (optional subregex)?/') some split delimiters may be captured in the result while others are not. See array indexes 1 and 2 to see an instance where the overall match succeeded and returned a delimiter while the optional sub-expression '( style="[-:a-z0-9 ]+")?' did not match, and did not return a delimiter. This means it's possible to have a result with an unpredictable number of delimiters in the result array.
This second aspect is true irrespective of the number of pairs of parentheses in the regex. This means: in a regular expression with a single optional parenthesised sub-expression, the overall expression can match without generating a corresponding delimiter in the result.

So, after posting that last post, I actually went and made it more robust.
<?php
/*
@param $pat1 the first pattern
@param $pat2 the second pattern
@param $co string containing what you want to extract and delimiters
@return $ite the text between the two patterns
*/
function getitem($pat1,$pat2,$co)
{
$arrayf = preg_split ($pat1, $co);
$ite = $arrayf[1];
$arrayf = preg_split ($pat2, $ite);
$ite = $arrayf[0];
return $ite;
}
?>
Yeah, so the previous post could be rendered more succinct, and it allows you to have as many delimiters as you want.

If you have some text of the form:
$part1.'some text'.$part2.'some other text'.$part3
And you want to split out the text, and discard the $partX parts, e.g.
<html><head><title>
My title!
</title></head><body>
My body!
</body></html>
and just keep "My title!" and "My body!", then this code will be of use.
<?php
//defining the delimiters
$part1= '<html><head><title>';
$part2='</title></head><body>';
$part3='</body></html>';
//and the text, for my project I'm getting this information from a text file.
$tempcon = <<<eoa
<html><head><title>
My title!
</title></head><body>
My body!
</body></html>
eoa
;
// defining the patterns.
$pattern1='~'.$part1.'~';
$pattern2='~'.$part2.'~';
$pattern3='~'.$part3.'~';
//Finding the title
$arrayf = preg_split ($pattern1, $tempcon); //2 sort out the title
$title = $arrayf[1];
$arrayf = preg_split ($pattern2, $title); //2
$title = $arrayf[0];
//Finding the body text.
$arrayf = preg_split ($pattern2, $tempcon); //2 sort out the content
$content = $arrayf[1];
$arrayf = preg_split ($pattern3, $content); //2
$content = $arrayf[0];
//And display.
echo $title.'<br>'.$content;
?>
I looked long and hard, and I just couldn't find an example of doing this, so here you go. Of course, I would love to be able to use a single call to preg_split, but I haven't worked that out.

For people who want to use the double quote to group words/fields, kind of like CSV does, you can use the following expression:
<?php
$keywords = preg_split( "/[\s,]*\\\"([^\\\"]+)\\\"[\s,]*|[\s,]+/", "textline with, commas and \"quoted text\" inserted", 0, PREG_SPLIT_DELIM_CAPTURE );
?>
Which will result in:
Array
(
[0] => textline
[1] => with
[2] => commas
[3] => and
[4] => quoted text
[5] => inserted
)

When I try to get \n delimited lines to an array from a file, preg_split gives one more array element which contains null string. Assume file contains
line1
line2
$lines = preg_split("/\n/", fread($fh, filesize($filename)));
$lines{
[0] => line1
[1] => line2
[2] =>
}
Same problem exists for explode as weel.
(this might be a feature of "PHP", not a problem.)

I was having trouble getting the PREG_SPLIT_DELIM_CAPTURE flag to work because I missed reading the "parenthesized expression" in the documentation :-(
So the pattern should look like:
/(A)/
not just
/A/
and it works as described/expected.

[Editor's Note: You can use php's wordwrap() to do the exact same thing]
This script splits a text into portions of a defined max. size, which will never be exceeded, and doesnt cut words. (Per portion it adds as many words as possible without exceeding the char-limit)
the only exception where a portion would be bigger than the limit, is when there's a word thats longer than the max_size, but you could quite easily change the script so it regards this.
<?
$str= 'Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur. Excepteur sint occaecat cupidatat non proident, sunt in culpa qui officia deserunt mollit anim id est laborum.';
$max_size = 50;
$words = preg_split("/[\040]+/", $str, -1);
$r=0;
for($i=0; $i < count($words); $i++) {
if (strlen($line[$r] . $words[$i] . ' ') < $max_size) $line[$r] .= $words[$i] . ' ';
else
{
$r++;
$line[$r] .= $words[$i] . ' ';
}
}
print_r ($line);
?>
Result:
Array
(
[0] => Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur
[1] => adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor
[2] => incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut
[3] => enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation
[4] => ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo
[5] => consequat. Duis aute irure dolor in
[6] => reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse cillum
[7] => dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur. Excepteur sint
[8] => occaecat cupidatat non proident, sunt in culpa
[9] => qui officia deserunt mollit anim id est laborum.

Be advised
$arr = preg_split("/x/", "x" );
print_r($arr);
will output:
Array
(
[0] =>
[1] =>
)
That is it will catch the 2 empty string on each side of the delimiter.

preg_split() behaves differently from perl's split() if the string ends with a delimiter. This perl snippet will print 5:
my @a = split(/ /, "a b c d e ");
print scalar @a;
The corresponding php code prints 6:
print count(preg_split("/ /", "a b c d e "));
This is not necessarily a bug (nowhere does the documentation say that preg_split() behaves the same as perl's split()) but it might surprise perl programmers.

To clarify the "limit" parameter and the PREG_SPLIT_DELIM_CAPTURE option,
$preg_split('(/ /)', '1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8', 4 ,PREG_SPLIT_DELIM_CAPTURE );
returns
('1', ' ', '2', ' ' , '3', ' ', '4 5 6 7 8')
So you actually get 7 array items not 4

The above description for PREG_SPLIT_OFFSET_CAPTURE may be a bit confusing.
When the flag is or'd into the 'flags' parameter of preg_split, each match is returned in the form of a two-element array. For each of the two-element arrays, the first element is the matched string, while the second is the match's zero-based offset in the input string.
For example, if you called preg_split like this:
preg_split('/foo/', 'matchfoomatch', -1, PREG_SPLIT_OFFSET_CAPTURE);
it would return an array of the form:
Array(
[0] => Array([0] => "match", [1] => 0),
[1] => Array([1] => "match", [1] => 8)
)
Note that or'ing in PREG_DELIM_CAPTURE along with PREG_SPLIT_OFFSET_CAPTURE works as well.
