Re: Newb Question - find and record

I know the first part. (I thought maybe their was a function that can be used in conjunction with matching.) This is what I am looking at. preg_match_all ("|<[^>]+>(.*)</[^>]+>|U", "<b>example: </b><div align=left>this is a test</div>", $out, PREG_PATTERN_ORDER); print $out[0][0].", ".$out[0][1]."\n"; print $out[1][0].", ".$out[1][1]."\n" The only part that confuses me is the [^>]. How would you have it search only for Test tags?. This: preg_match_all ("|<test+>(.*)</test+>|U", "<b>example: </b><test>this is a test</test>", $out, PREG_PATTERN_ORDER); print $out[0][0].", ".$out[0][1]."\n"; print $out[1][0].", ".$out[1][1]."\n" prints out: Warning: Undefined offset: 1 in C:\WINDOWS\DESKTOP\DAVID'~1\PROJECTS\SNR\phpF071.PHP on line 7 this is a test, Warning: Undefined offset: 1 in C:\WINDOWS\DESKTOP\DAVID'~1\PROJECTS\SNR\phpF071.PHP on line 8 this is a test, What is the error?
