Get background images from a css and add to a database?

[Moh]

Does any one know how you can make a script which goes through a .css file, and it will insert all the background image URL's into a database?

[Bojangles]

Not too sure but wouldn't you make it so your database is able to grab all the files?

[Moh]

The database dosn't get the files, its the script which does it.
The database is just a place to store data

I have a feeling the scritp will use file_get_contents

Yeah but it will only return the files in a string by using file_get_contents.

Try this

string file_get_contents     ( string $filename    [, int $flags    [, resource $context    [, int $offset    [, int $maxlen   ]]]] )

Yep, you'd use file_get_contents and preg_match_all, although the problem is people can lay out their backgrounds differently ... and therefore it's going to be near impossible to get all of them.

[Bojangles]

I'm not sure if this is correct or not to don't bash me but couldn't he just store them in a file CHMOD'd t 777 and use

($con = fsockopen(filewhateverhere); 

to fetch them?

Humm, iv never been good with these functions

All I have is:

<?php
$url = "http://www.habbo.co.uk/myhabbo/styles/assets.css";
$page = file_get_contents("$url");

$start = explode("background-image: url(", $page, 2);
$end = explode(");", $start[1], 2);
$sticker = trim($end[0]);

echo ("$sticker");
?>

Which gets the first one

because there backgrounds are added from a panel, the set out is all the same

Okay, probably best to use preg_match_all and then since they're all the same you can use regex to find them ... although I'm not great with regex so I can't help you from now

I have never used preg_match_all, looks like ill have to do some research

[Bojangles]

Research is key
