Thanks for the quick help.
Both ways,
preg_match('/Last Name:\s*(.*)\n/', $inputStr, $regs);
and
ereg("Last Name:\s*(.*[^\n])", $strInput, $regs);
work fine.
However if I have,
Last Name:
Street: Teststreet
(no entry after last name)
Both search strings return me:
- ----
Street: Teststreet
- ----
Also why doesn't "Last Name:\s*(.*)$" work, and neither "^Last
Name:\s*(.*)". Both strings are not found at all - that's why I thought
the php implementation might treat new lines in a strange way.
Can anybody explain these effects to me?
Cheers,
Arik
