Hello all. Can anyone tell me where i can find some detalied help about regular expressions used at ereg, eregi, etc ? For example i have this string: <html> <head> <meta name="keywords" content="poli, easjkdha, owersweoihjwe, uitsodgfisdgisdiv"> <meta name="description" content="aaaaaaaaaaaaa, wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww, wereeeeeeeeeee, rrrrrrrrrrrrr"> <title>osdfjsoidiid werioeiorigfs dfv sdfvo sdivvhdoososos </title> </head> <body> siodfhyusiodfusdfjkdjfskodjfdjfsdkljfskldjfsd sdfskdjfhksdjfhskldsldkjfsldkfjsldkfjsldkfjsdf <a href="aaaaa.php">some web page</a> </body> </html> then i have this: eregi("<META NAME=\"keywords\" CONTENT=\"(.)*\">", $strAux, $arrKeywords); and the variable $arrKeywords[1] is : poli, easjkdha, owersweoihjwe, uitsodgfisdgisdiv"> <meta name="description" content="aaaaaaaaaaaaa, wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww, wereeeeeeeeeee, rrrrrrrrrrrrr"> <title>osdfjsoidiid werioeiorigfs dfv sdfvo sdivvhdoososos </title> </head> <body> siodfhyusiodfusdfjkdjfskodjfdjfsdkljfskldjfsd sdfskdjfhksdjfhskldsldkjfsldkfjsldkfjsldkfjsdf <a href="aaaaa.php It gets all the string till the last "> . But i need to go till the first "> after meta .... Thanks Mircea
