What would be php equivalent of this code?

var okTags = /^(<\/?(b|blockquote|code|del|dd|dl|dt|em|h1|h2|h3|i|kbd|li|ol|p|pre|s|sup|sub|strong|strike|ul)>|<(br|hr)\s?\/?>)$/i;

var okLinks = /^(<a\shref="(\#\d+|(https?|ftp):\/\/[-A-Za-z0-9+&@#\/%?=~_|!:,.;\(\)]+)"(\stitle="[^"<>]+")?\s?>|<\/a>)$/i;


var okImg = /^(<img\ssrc="https?:(\/\/[-A-Za-z0-9+&@#\/%?=~_|!:,.;\(\)]+)"(\swidth="\d{1,3}")?(\sheight="\d{1,3}")?(\salt="[^"<>]*")?(\stitle="[^"<>]*")?\s?\/?>)$/i;


text = text.replace(/<[^<>]*>?/gi, function (tag) {
                    return (tag.match(okTags) || tag.match(okLinks) || tag.match(okImg)) ? tag : ""
                })
Solution

  • replace() can be replaced by preg_replace()

    and match() would be preg_match() which is very powerful

    Check the manual to see how it would work with your code, they are not that different, and you can use your call back function too.
