extract text from tag
<p>Hi I've got these lines here, i am trying to extract the first paragraph found in the file, but this fails to return any results, if not it returns results that are not even in <code>&lt;p&gt;</code> tags which is odd?</p>

<pre><code>  $file = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
  $hd = fopen($file,'r');
  $cn = fread($hd, filesize($file));
  fclose($hd);

  $cnc = preg_replace('/&lt;p&gt;(.+?)&lt;\/p&gt;/','$1',$cn);
</code></pre>
