Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself.  For a
list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please
visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the
appropriate forum for asking support questions.  Due to the volume
of reports we can not explain in detail here why your report is not
a bug.  The support channels will be able to provide an explanation
for you.

Thank you for your interest in PHP.

You've reached the backtrack limit, check preg_last_error()

Description:
------------
preg_match fails for some patterns when the searched string exceeds
around 100300 bytes. It matches for same strings if enough text is
removed from the middle part which gets captured by the pattern when
working correctly. Also the exact same regexp works fine for perl on
unshortened output.

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
//foo.html >= 100 kB
$contents = file_get_contents("foo.html");
$matches = array();
preg_match('%<BODY\s*>.*?</H[1-6]>(.+?)</BODY>%si', $contents,
$matches);
//$matches is empty
var_dump($matches);
?>


Expected result:
----------------
array(1) {
  [0]=>
  string(12935) "/*lots of html*/
}


Actual result:
--------------
array(0) {
}
