Topic: Removing embedded images in mail script

[brianlange]

I have an email popping script that needs to remove embedded images.
The images have "cid" in the source attribute like this one.
<img width="83" height="95" src=
"cid:image002.jpg@01CAC038.74744940" align="left" />

This is what I have so far which seems to work. Any way I can approve upon this? Thanks in advance.


$regEx = '/<img[\w\W]+src=[\r\n]?["\']cid[\w\W]+\s(\/>|>)/';

$img = '<img width="83" height="95" src=
"cid:image002.jpg@01CAC038.74744940" align="left" />';

$img = preg_replace($regEx, '', $img);

The way I would go about it:

$img = preg_replace('~<img\b[^>]*\bsrc\s?=\s?([\'"])cid:[^\1]*\1[^>]*>~i', '', $img);

Awesome, thank you very much.
