    Example:
    Heres the_content so far:

    <object width="560" height="315">
				<param name="movie" value="https://www.youtube.com/v/JaQtWg6bifw?fs=1"></param>
				<param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param>
				<embed src="https://www.youtube.com/v/JaQtWg6bifw?fs=1&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="560" height="315" allowfullscreen="true"></embed>
				</object>

    I want to truncate to just the object:

    <object width="560" height="315">
				<param name="movie" value="https://www.youtube.com/v/JaQtWg6bifw?fs=1"></param>
				<param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param>
				<embed src="https://www.youtube.com/v/JaQtWg6bifw?fs=1&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="560" height="315" allowfullscreen="true"></embed>
				</object>

  • Use regex to detect the tags, then use that.

    $source = <Full Content>;
preg_match("'.*?(<object .*?>.*?</object>).*?'si", $source, $match);
if($match) echo $match[1];

    Worked like a charm! Thankyou ??

    For those who just got here, replace
    <Full Content>;
    with
    get_the_content();

    Good to hear.

    Can you mark this as resolved? Thanks.
