   I am looking for a specific feature that could interest all the WP community (we are in, no ?).
   Well i am looking for a plugin that would :

   analyse the poste on the save_post event and store in a table all WP external components :
   <img, <a (internet sites, doc, xls, pdf ...) <embed ...

   I have been looking for this during long hours on the net. But i believe my quest won't be solve by one knight :-)
   Thank you for your help

   Could you explain a bit more what you would like to do?

   Well ...

   Posts are made of

   • text
   • other stuff included as images, links, docs, videos etc... (<img>,<embed>,< a>,<object>... html tags)

   so i would like to have a plugin to store all the external references of a post in a table.

   The purpose is to have the ability to for example

   • create an rss/atom feed with <img> html tags in the <image>/<logo> rss/atom tag instead of having it in the <description> tag.
   • to include an image when using the 'the_content_rss()' function to display post summaries
   • to have the ability (why not) to forbid all external links that are not compliant to your publishing policy
     ... well that would be a huge dvpt i believe

   * i am sure you can have plenty other ideas

   Or instead of a plugin, having a 'the_image_rss()' function
   like you have in WP the 'the_content_rss()' function that as all html tags removed (sort of fgetss php function used) .

   Am i clear enough ...ps : i noticed that when you publish a post with a <img src='myphoto.jpg'>Me</img>, WP modifies the tag in the post to <img src='myphoto.jpg'/>

   i am sure that with regular expressions (preg_match_all) there is something to dig, i tried to find a good tutorial ... i am still looking for it ...

   if you still want more info, look at my site
   http://www.nogent94.com

   on the first page, the picture appears on the right.

   if you go to the post page (for today it's http://www.nogent94.com?p=25) picture appears on the left.

   that is the kind of thing you can do with Xref....

   On php.net, preg_match_all is normally well explained.
   But regular expressions are, hmmm, how to say that ... reserved to guys who can work a lot on a list of 10 characters...
