in Perl, i do thusly:
$adtext = "This is a {test} john.smith\@mail.mainetoday.com";
$email = $1 if($adtext=~/(\{.*\})/);
print "email = $email\n\n";
and i get back "email = "test".
i then do thusly in PHP:
$f=fopen($test_name, "r");
while(!feof($f)) {
$line=fgets($f, 4096);
preg_match_all("/(\{.*\})/", $line, $holes);
}
after this $holes contains the number of elements i expect to get back, but has no
values. any ideas what i am doing wrong?
