php get value out of array with quotes - php

Question

Hello! I have a few SQL statements and I need to split them, I need the first image tag that occurs in the statement, I have the code for it to split it, but the problem being all of the different quotes. Is there a way to get it out out?
Code I have now:
$array = array('INSERT INTO ba793_content(`id`,`asset_id`,`title`,`alias`,`introtext`,`fulltext`,`state`,`catid`,`created`,`created_by`,`created_by_alias`,`modified`,`modified_by`,`checked_out`,`checked_out_time`,`publish_up`,`publish_down`,`images`,`urls`,`attribs`,`access`,`hits`,`metadata`) VALUES( 120333,139,'Champ Cars 2007','champ-cars-2007','<table style=width: 429px; height: 74px height=74 width=429 border=0><tbody><tr><td><img title=champcar_logo_2007.jpg style=width: 200px; height: 79px height=79 alt=champcar_logo_2007.jpg hspace=5 src=images/stories/Store/champcar_logo_2007.jpg width=200 align=left vspace=5 border=0 /></td><td><div align=justify>Exclusieve toegangskaarten alleen hier te koop!

I just want

I am getting now is errors because of the quotes that won't resemble a correct string, anyone know a way to do this?

Answer 1

Parsing SQL is not trivial. (It's not hard either.) If this is a one-off job, you might get away with a few regex to pull out what you want. Otherwise you need to use a parser.
Regex /<img[^>]+>/ will extract image tags. It will fail on a variety of edge cases so don't rely on this and verify the output. And you don't need PHP for this:
egrep -o '<img[^>]+>' < old_db.sql
This is really putting the cart before the horse. Why not use the tool intended for the job: Mysql? Run the inserts, then query the data. Done. If you don't have mysql handy, try sqlite. It looks like it should be able to read your SQL.
