Note Submitter: izua dot richard at gmail dot com ---- Be careful when mixing curl with preg_match. If you view the source from one browser, set the CURLOPT_USERAGENT as the same string supplied by the browser. I lost over three hours figuring out why this regular expression /<h2 class=r><a href=([\s\S]+?) class=l>([\s\S]+?)<\/a><\/h2>/ won't actually give me the link and name of search results (google search). I was reading the source from Opera, and identifying myself as Mozilla from curl. i know it's really out of topic, but it looked to me like a preg_match bug at first.
