UNIX.com is not a 'script writing service'. We are here to help you write your own scripts, but you must do your own work and show your on efforts and attempts.
What have you tried? What error messages did you get? What output did you see when you made your own attempt to parse this text?
Hi Neo, thanks for the welcome!
Yes, it's pretty obvious that the forum is not a scripting service, and, I assure you, it's not what I need.
I'm completely new to scripting, and I know practically nothing, but I know other programming languages and conceptually I know what I have to do to get the result I want.
What I don't know is where to start, for example, I have no idea how to parse the strings in the file.
I was able to loop through the lines of the file and display them on the console, but for now, nothing more.
The next step would be to parse, string by string, to understand how many commas there are before the part to be extracted and to use this value to start creating the <ul><li> structure.
I have a html file called myfile. If I simply put "cat myfile.html" in UNIX, it shows all the html tags like <a href=r/26><img src="http://www>. But I want to extract only text part.
Same problem happens in "type" command in MS-DOS.
I know you can do it by opening it in Internet Explorer,... (4 Replies)
Hi All,

datefmt_parse
DATEFMT_PARSE(3) 1 DATEFMT_PARSE(3)IntlDateFormatter::parse - Parse string to a timestamp value
Object oriented style
SYNOPSIS
public int IntlDateFormatter::parse (string $value, [int &$position])
DESCRIPTION
Procedural style
int datefmt_parse (IntlDateFormatter $fmt, string $value, [int &$position])
Converts string $value to an incremental time value, starting at $parse_pos and consuming as much of the input value as possible.
PARAMETERS
o $fmt
- The formatter resource
o $value
- string to convert to a time
o $position
- Position at which to start the parsing in $value (zero-based). If no error occurs before $value is consumed, $parse_pos will
contain -1 otherwise it will contain the position at which parsing ended (and the error occurred). This variable will contain the
end position if the parse fails. If $parse_pos > strlen($value), the parse fails immediately.
RETURN VALUES
timestamp parsed value, or FALSE if value can't be parsed.
EXAMPLES
Example #1
OO example
<?php
$fmt = new IntlDateFormatter(
'en_US',
IntlDateFormatter::FULL,
IntlDateFormatter::FULL,
'America/Los_Angeles',
IntlDateFormatter::GREGORIAN
);
echo 'First parsed output is ' . $fmt->parse('Wednesday, December 20, 1989 4:00:00 PM PT');
$fmt = new IntlDateFormatter(
'de-DE',
IntlDateFormatter::FULL,
IntlDateFormatter::FULL,
'America/Los_Angeles',
IntlDateFormatter::GREGORIAN
);
?>
Example #2
datefmt_parse(3) example
<?php
$fmt = datefmt_create(
'en_US',
IntlDateFormatter::FULL,
IntlDateFormatter::FULL,
'America/Los_Angeles',
IntlDateFormatter::GREGORIAN
);
echo 'First parsed output is ' . datefmt_parse($fmt, 'Wednesday, December 20, 1989 4:00:00 PM PT');
$fmt = datefmt_create(
'de-DE',
IntlDateFormatter::FULL,
IntlDateFormatter::FULL,
'America/Los_Angeles',
IntlDateFormatter::GREGORIAN
);
echo 'Second parsed output is ' . datefmt_parse($fmt, 'Mittwoch, 20. Dezember 1989 16:00 Uhr GMT-08:00');
?
The above example will output:
First parsed output is 630201600
Second parsed output is 630201600
