It depends of the last parameter to preg_match_all. PREG_PATTERN_ORDER and PREG_SET_ORDER. One of these is the default value. |<a (.*?)>(.*?)></a>| PREG_PATTERN_ORDER : ----Orders results so that $matches[0] is an array of full pattern matches, $matches[1] is an array of strings matched by the first parenthesized subpattern, and so on. Using above pattern if we have some links in text to search for matches then $matches[1][0],$matches[1][1].... will contain the params of <a> . $matches[2][0],$matches[2][1].... will contain the link text. PREG_SET_ORDER : ----Orders results so that $matches[0] is an array of first set of matches, $matches[1] is an array of second set of matches, and so on. Using above pattern $matches[1][0] will be te params for fist matched link. $matches[1][1] link text. $matches[2][0] params of second matched <a>, $matches[2][1] link text ...and so on.
