Re^6: substitution in textual area of HTML fileby Takamoto (Monk) |

I was using your first code which has $id->text instead of $id->content. Using "content" made the trick. I am using the first script because of the nice loop. My final goal is to wrap the matching string(s) between tags (a simple replacement of match with tag+match+tag should do it). The hard part is that I need to match n-grams that possibly are split between two nodes (end of 1st node and begin of next one), with the loop I may find some working solution (my idea is to scan a window of two nodes at a time). Why this? Because I am parsing the output of pdftohtml which splits natural language sentences into lines, each line wrapped in its own tags. In the example above, it could be that I need to match the 2-gram "Translation is", which is in 2 adjacent DOMs. This is quite challenging (at least for my 0-parsing-abilities), but you have brought me near my goal. So time to play now. Edit Just for the sake of experimenting/learning, I tried with these two HTML snippets:
With the first HTML, using your first script with $id->text, <b>also</b> is not shown, with the second yes. I do not see any rational behind it...
