You can use this pattern

Code:

(.*?)<\/div>/is

However, this will get tricky with nested quotes. Observing the forum thread HTML code, It looks like there is always a
after the div.quote element, so this may achieve the desired result for nested quotes.

Code:

(.*?)<\/div>

It may not work 100% of the time though, so you should always check your results.

Thanks , I used DOM Parser because Regex is not sure , and the result won't be 100% correct
Problem resolved !

Is it necessary to use a regex? They can easily break (esp. ones like bitnanigan's hack that rely on extra tags) if the forum software gets an update that slightly changes the HTML generation behavior, or if the theme changes, as well as with some edge cases that the forum software may allow or create. You might have better luck with a DOM parser/HTML parser.

Well you would have to get the source. use preg_match.

Test this out on any thread. Prob wont work for all but its a start, I need to look more into it.

preg_match_all($sPattern, $sRequest, $sMatches);

var_dump($sMatches);
