The above description for PREG_SPLIT_OFFSET_CAPTURE may be a bit confusing. When the flag is or'd into the 'flags' parameter of preg_split, each match is returned in the form of a two-element array. For each of the two-element arrays, the first element is the matched string, while the second is the match's zero-based offset in the input string. For example, if you called preg_split like this: preg_split('/foo/', 'matchfoomatch', -1, PREG_SPLIT_OFFSET_CAPTURE); it would return an array of the form: Array( [0] => Array([0] => "match", [1] => 0), [1] => Array([1] => "match", [1] => 8) ) Note that or'ing in PREG_DELIM_CAPTURE along with PREG_SPLIT_OFFSET_CAPTURE works as well. -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.preg-split.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+21861 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+21861 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+21861
