How can one effectively extract HTML comments from a string using PHP?
To extract HTML comments from a string using PHP, you can use regular expressions to search for comment tags <!-- and --> and extract the content in between. You can achieve this by using the preg_match_all function in PHP with the appropriate regular expression pattern.
<?php
$string = "<!-- This is a comment --> This is some text <!-- Another comment -->";
$pattern = '/<!--(.*?)-->/';
preg_match_all($pattern, $string, $matches);
$comments = $matches[0];
foreach ($comments as $comment) {
echo $comment . "\n";
}
?>
