Just want to know the difference between preg_match and preg_match_all. preg_match stops after the first match.preg_match_all gets *all* the matches. E.g. If you have a string -> $str = "foofoo"; preg_match('/foo/', $str, $match); -> $match will have an array with one "foo". preg_match_all('/foo/', $str, $match); -> $match will have an array with two "foo". Thats basically it.
