simple regex problem 2

[Dronealone]

Hi,

I just can't get my head around regex!

Can anybody tell me how I do a simple match to extract
what is between the quotes on a select list:

<option value=&quot;bla&quot;>Bla Bla</option>

I want to extract all occurrences of what is between the quotes...

Thank you!!

This expresion pattern should work:

$pattern = &quot;/<option\s+value\s*=\s*&quot;(.*)&quot;>/i&quot;;

Use it with preg_match, the resulting array will contain the results.
The patterns has optional whitespace between the words in case there's some extra white space.

works a treat, thank you!

DRJ478,
maybe Dronealone forgot to give you a star.
I think you deserved it (lot of people here seem to be quite parsimonious about that!).
