Question

Answer 1

+2 A:

I think your general approach may be wrong depending on what you are doing. Instead of storing the image string in your database just store the file name and possibly a path. Then in your HTML code build the string manually:

<img src='<?= $row['path'] . '/' . $row['image'] ?>' width='XXX' height='XXX'/>

That way you can add as many different parameters as you want.

Also to make it as efficient as possible don't resize your images using style tags or inline width/height, but instead use something like PHP GD or ImageMagick to actually make thumbnails in the sizes you need to display. In the long run this will save you a lot of headaches and bandwidth.

Answer 2

+1 A:

$html = '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>'.$yourHTMLFromDb;
$elements = new SimpleXmlElement($html);
$url = $elements->img->attributes()->src;

Now im sure i wont be the first to say it but... "Youre doing it wrong". You should only be storing the path to the image in the database (and maybe some other attribnutes) not an html snippet.

i get this error from your code: Warning: SimpleXMLElement::__construct() [simplexmlelement.--construct]: Entity: line 1: parser error : Entity 'euml' not defined in /home6/feksinte/public_html/portali/index.php on line 189

Sorry encoding should be `"UTF-8"` updated my post.. however the sample html you provided shows only an image within a div where is this entity coming from if this entity is not in the src for the image then you must have other tags in there you didnt include which may change how you reach the element in the dom. the code i posted will only work for the structure you provided in your sample.

prodigitalson 2010-02-12 23:48:29

again the same error. i have and admin panel where i insert data and for this reason i use an ready made rich text editor (java script based). And when i upload an image using that text editor it stores this image exactly the way i showed you up there. I don't know what i am doing wrong but i still have the same problem

Answer 3

A:

I think searching and writing codes is more hard than just clicks. Use Automation Anywhere cuz it recognizes the image present on the web page and gives you option whatever you want to do like extract image, extract URL of image, etc. So then you can select URL (as in your case) and your job's done. Get a Free Trial, i think it will surely help you.
