[PHP] Was: ereg parse error problem Now: RegEx Plea for Help

[Lara J. Fabans]

Thank you, Phil, for fixing that.  Obviously this snippet is trying to be a 
smaller test case for a much
larger problem.  It looks like I'm pulling *all* of the <img> and <a href> 
from the $string and I don't
want that at all.  I just want one of them.


So, my return is:

image source:http://www.123posters.com/images/m-mase01.jpg"; alt="Mase 
Necklace"></a> <img src="http://www.qksrv.net/image-297915-361662"; 
height="1" width="1" border="0
href: http://www.qksrv.net/click-297915-361662"; target="_top" > <img 
src="http://www.123posters.com/images/m-mase01.jpg"; alt="Mase 
Necklace"></a> <img src="http://www.qksrv.net/image-297915-361662"; 
height="1" width="1" border="0

I mistakenly though it would stop at the second &quot;, but it's going all 
the way to the end.  Is there any way to tell it to
find one instance instead of the globalizing like it's doing?

I'm going to play around with a few more things, but after staring at the 
code for 4 hours, my brain is fried.

Thanks,
Lara
