Using the "include" function

I know it can be more specific but....

[HeyJim]

I can use
<?
@Include'http://somedomain.com/test.htm';
?>
and include the entire contents of a page in the middle of the page carrying the this code but I can't figure out how to specify only copy part of the page contents from "widget" to "arbuckle" (for instance).

What is the solution to this, please. And, thanks!

you want to do something like
<?
$pagecontents = file_get_contents("mypage.php");
$start = "widget";
$end = "arbuckle";
if(!preg("$start(.*)$end",$pagecontents,$match) {
$match = "NO MATCH";
}
echo $match;

i think i have the wrong syntax on the preg, but i'm not sure

[WhosAWhata]

actually i think it is preg_match instead of preg, i can't quite remember

I believe you will have to do

echo $match[1]

since preg_match returns parenthesized subpatterns in an array. Here there is only one subpatern in parenthesis, so it will be in $match[1]

Thanks everyone. Got it.
