When you are having a hard time: try to do the other way round.
When you read the following line you'll surely slap yourself with an old

$string=preg_replace("/[^0-9]+/","",$string);
It says: "Replace every char that is not a digit with nothing"

PS.
Yeah Bob, I still remember you. ;) Because my job forces me to go for
complex javascript/ajax, html, xml and java programming I lost a bit
track of PHP - but I'm still receiving and reading it. I thougth: why
not answering some php stuff as long as I do remember what PHP is. ;)
