You're best aproach would be to look fo what you want. If all you have to work with is some poorly written html doc and you want the <a> <img> tag important parts? preg_match('/<a href="([^"]+)".*?><img src="([^"]+)"/, $photo, $matches); var_dump($matches); Otherwise contact flicker and ask them for an API for what you are trying to do. And if the above works dont expect it to work all the time. Curt. -- cat .signature: No such file or directory -- cat .signature: No such file or directory
