Note you'll have to escape the '/' when passing the closing tag as $end argument to your function: '<\/title> function inString($start, $end, $string) { $pat="/.*". $start . "(.*)" . $end . ".*/i"; preg_match($pat, $string, $result); } > return($result[1]); > } > You'll also seem some speed improvement by going through the whole routine of getting to your file with fopen and using fread. At least that's what my crude timer showed - suprisingly.
