View Full Version : wluke, new query question for you...


12-22-2000, 02:42 AM
I imported from UBB, and I'd like to replace all the old quotes, which were replaced with blockquote and some other stuff, with the correct quote tag.

Basically...
I need to replace all instances of

<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><HR>

with the open quote tag...

And I need to replace all instances of

<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

with the close quote tag.

Can you help me with that?

This is a lot different than a simple query. We didn't bother converting it on our system. You would probably need a script to do it. I will try to put something together but cannot make any promises as I am busy developing a new site to add to our community.

you'd have to combine a regex with a query to do this
