I recommend you learn about PHP's DOM parsing and things like SimpleXML. Much more powerful and robust than looking for starting and ending strings.

Hi, thank you for your recommendation. I know DOM or SimpleXML are powerful, but did you ever try parse blogspot content using DOM or SimpleXML without error? I've done that, and always got an error when parsing, the problem is DOM or SimpleXML cannot parse content with embedded script.

Well, actually there is a simple solution to libxml components.

libxml_use_internal_errors(true);
